Abstract

Peat is a wetland region in Indonesia with a very high water storage capacity. However, the amount of humic compounds obtained from the accumulation of organic substances in peat makes the water unable to be used for daily purposes. Peat water treatment with several methods has been carried out, such as coagulation, electrocoagulation, flocculation, and filtration. However, the result of clumping or filtering in such a way raises new environmental problems. One method which effective and efficient used in peat water treatment is photocatalytic. Several materials based-semiconductor was developed as a photocatalyst, another modification of photocatalyst is combining the adsorbent as a porous supporting photocatalyst which can improve its performance.

Abstract

Indonesia has the largest distribution of peatlands worldwide and is spread over Sumatra, Kalimantan, and Papua islands. Peatland is one of the land resources with a hydrological function and can store water in the form of peatwater. Peatwater is brownish-red due to high dissolved organic matter, especially in the form of humic acid and its derivatives, high organic matter content, low pH, and low cation content. Peatwater is classified as polluted water, unsuitable for consumption, and cannot be used directly as drinking, bathing, or washing water. The Mixed Matrix Membrane Fabrication method is expected to be used for peatwater purification by adding silica filler from rice husk ash. Rice husk has a high silica filler content of >90%. The higher the silica level, the better the material absorbs harmful chemical compounds in peatwater, one of which is humic acid.

Abstract

The primary polluter of the environment is liquid waste. Silica is one substance that can be utilized to minimize water pollution. Silica can be produced from agricultural biomass waste, such as rice husk ash. This study investigated the preparation of rice husk ash and the optimal synthesis method for producing bio-silica. A literature review of studies on rice husk ash, heavy metals, and adsorbents was conducted. The findings indicated that boiling rice husk at 800°C and washing with HCl produced high-purity silica. XRD (X-ray diffraction), FT-IR (Fourier transform infrared) spectrophotometers, and ED-XRF (Energy Dispersive X-ray fluorescence) were employed to characterize the rice husk ash. The precipitation, sol-gel, acidification, and hydrothermal methods were compared for bio-silica synthesis. The synthesized bio-silica can be used as a heavy metal absorbent for various metal ions, including Pb2+, Zn2+, Mn2+, Cu2+, As3+, As5+, and Cd2+.

Abstract

Abundant coal reserves make this material a substitute fuel choice, especially for industry. The use of coal carries a high risk due to incomplete combustion and produces fly ash products. Fly ash cause pollution and health risks as well as environmental contamination when they are released, deposited, or leached into the ecosystem over short or long periods of time. The high content of silica and alumina in fly ash can be utilized and modified into new materials with added value. This research aims to modify the surface of fly ash using stearic acid as a hydrophobic inorganic material. Fly ash from Asam-asam Coal Power Plant was characterized by using XRD and modified by immersing in stearic acid (2,4,6, and 8%) and 98% ethanol. The result showed that the contact angle increases when fly ash is modified on the surface using stearic acid. The contact angle increases with increasing stearic acid concentration. The highest contact angle was obtained at a stearic acid concentration of 8%, and the lowest at 2% was about 112.9 and 102.2, respectively. The fly ash composition was primarily silica and alumina, which were crystalline, as confirmed by XRD. These findings provide several aspects of fly ash and its potential as a candidate material for environmental remediation and waste management.

Abstract

The utilization of peat soil as a planting medium is still faced with several problems, especially in terms of the chemical characteristics of peat soil. Therefore, there is a need for treatment to improve these problems, one of which is by using the poration of palm oil empty fruit bunches and dolomite. This research aims to determine the effect of providing a technology package of empty fruit bunch and dolomite poration doses on the growth and yield of red spinach plants. The research was carried out at the Greenhouse Jalan G. Obos 24, for 3 months (September-November 2023). The research was carried out using a survey method and experimental tests in polybags, using the RAL method with 9 treatment technology packages, namely: 1) soil without treatment (control), 2) Soil + empty fruit bunches poration 2.5 tons ha-1 + dolomite 2 tons ha-1, 3) Soil + 2.5 tons ha-1 of empty fruit bunches poration + 4 tons of ha-1 dolomite, 4) Soil + 5 tons of ha-1 of empty fruit bunches poration, 5) Soil + 5 tons ha-1 of empty fruit bunches poration + 2 tons ha-1 dolomite, 6) Soil + empty fruit bunches poration 5 tons ha-1 + dolomite 4 tons ha-1, 7) Soil + empty fruit bunches poration 7.5 tons ha-1, 8) Soil + empty fruit bunches poration 7.5 tons ha-1 + dolomite 2 tons ha-1 , 9) Soil + empty fruit bunches poration 7.5 tons ha-1 + dolomite 4 tons ha-1. The variables observed included plant height, stem diameter, root length, plant wet weight, and plant dry weight. Providing a package of peat soil + 7.5 tons ha-1 of empty fruit bunches poration + 4 tons of ha-1 dolomite (T(8)) can increase the growth of red spinach plants which include plant height (4.46 – 37.36 cm), stem diameter (4.48 – 7.06 cm), the wet weight of the plant is 26.10 g/polybag. Keywords : poration, dolomite, plant height, palm oil empty fruit bunch

Abstract

Abstrak Sabun merupakan campuran antara senyawa kimia dari asam lemak yang dapat diturunkan dari minyak nabati atau lemak hewani dengan alkali berupa natrium ataupun kalium hidroksida pada suhu 80-100°C melalui reaksi saponifikasi (penyabunan). Sabun digunakan sehari-hari sebagai pembersih, pengharum, dan pendukung Kesehatan kulit. Pemanfaatan sabun sebagai pembersih kulit semakin beragam, terlihat dari jenis, warna, wangi dan manfaat yang ditawarkan. Minyak atsiri dari kopi merupakan salah satu bahan alami yang dapat ditambahkan pada pembuatan sabun karena memberikan aroma atau wangi yang banyak disukai konsumen. Selain itu, minyak atsiri dari kopi juga memberikan efek melembutkan dan menenangkan kulit. Hal ini karena kopi mengandung senyawa kafein dan polifenol. Program Studi Kimia Universitas Palangka Raya melakukan kegiatan pengabdian kepada masyarakat melalui sosialisasi pembuatan sabun padat dengan penambahan minyak atsiri dari kopi di SMAN 4 Palangka Raya. Kegiatan ini terdiri dari tiga tahap, yaitu tahap persiapan sosialisasi, pelaksanaan sosialisasi, dan evaluasi hasil pengabdian. Hasil dari kegiatan pengabdian ini menunjukkan bahwa materi dapat dipahami dengan baik dan kegiatan ini sangat bermanfaat bagi siswa di SMAN 4 Palangka Raya. Sosialisasi ini dilakukan untuk memberikan pengetahuan tentang pembuatan sabun padat dengan penambahan minyak atsiri dari kopi. Abstract Soap is a mixture of chemical compounds from fatty acids derived from vegetable oils or animal fats withan alkali of sodium or potassium hydroxide at 80-100°C through a saponification reaction. Soap is used daily asa cleanser, fragrance, and skin health support. The use of soap as a skin cleanser is increasingly diverse, seenfrom the type, color, fragrance, and benefits offered. Coffee essential oil is one of the natural ingredients that canbe added to soap making because it gives a scent that many consumers like. In addition, the coffee essential oilalso has a softening and soothing effect on the skin. This is because coffee contains caffeine and polyphenolcompounds. Department of Chemistry Universitas Palangka Raya conducts community service activities throughthe socialization of making solid soap with the addition of coffee essential oils at SMAN 4 Palangka Raya. Thisactivity consists of three stages, namely the preparation stage for socialization, implementation of socialization,and evaluation of the results of community service. The results of this service activity show that the material canbe understood well and this activity is very useful for students at SMAN 4 Palangka Raya. This socialization wascarried out to provide knowledge about making solid soap with the addition of coffee essential oils.
