Abstract

Phytoremediation utilizes metal-trapping plants to recover water as the main source of contamination, Pistia Stratiotes L. is a hyperaccumulator plant that is considered capable of reducing hexavalent chromium levels in wastewater. This is evidenced by the results obtained on each of the variables investigated, namely the effect of contact time and the number of plants. Where, the effect of contact time on the most optimal reduction in hexavalent chromium concentration on day 10 is 22.55 mg/ L with an efficiency value of 54.89 %. While the effect of the number of plants on the reduction in the most optimal metal concentration was found in the first reactor with the number of plants 4, chromium concentration was 23.16 mg/ L with an efficiency value of 54.89%. This means that the longer the phytoremediation process will affect the decrease in chromium levels in waste samples but has no effect on the number of plants used if the plant mass is not calculated before treatment. The recommended kinetic models for phytoremediation systems using P. Stratiotes L plants are Richard's Pseudo First Order and Pseudo Second Order. However, when viewed from the prediction value and experimental data, Pseudo Second Order Kinetic Models are considered suitable to describe the phenomenon that occurs in this study, with an SSE value of 1.0042 and a reaction rate constant of 1.1662 day-1 to 1.5623 day-1.

Abstract

PT. XYZ uses a reverse osmosis (RO) system in demin water treatment. One of the weaknesses of the RO system is the formation of fouling on the membrane, which can reduce the performance of the membrane, so it is necessary to carry out an appropriate cleaning process to remove deposits on the surface of the membrane, restore the separation characteristics, and restore the normal capacity of the system. This research aims to examine the effect of cleaning on the performance of reverse osmosis membranes in the PT. XYZ with requirements for reverse osmosis membrane type FILMTEC BW30–400 IG. The research was conducted for 8 weeks by collecting data on the reverse osmosis control box and control room in the form of product flow rate, feed conductivity, and product conductivity. Based on the results of the study, it can be concluded that the effect of cleaning on membrane performance can only extend the life of the membrane and cannot meet the specifications for the working parameters of the reverse osmosis membrane, which can be seen in the salt rejection, salt passage, and flux values obtained in this study.

Abstract

This research aims to carry out the adsorption process of hexavalent chromium Cr (VI) utilizing activated charcoal generated from acid-activated wood charcoal using HCl and evaluate the adsorption isotherm and kinetics model. The adsorption procedure was carried out in batches with variations in the Cr (VI) adsorbate concentration, and then the total concentration was finally evaluated using UV-VIS spectrophotometry. The isotherm models employed in this research include the Langmuir, Freundlich, and Temkin isotherm models, while the kinetic models used include pseudo-first order, pseudo-second order, Elovich, and Weber-Morris intraparticle diffusion, which may be estimated using linear regression equations. The findings obtained demonstrate that the adsorption capacity value of acid-activated wood charcoal is 1.1686 mg/g, with the greatest efficiency at 83.9623%. The isotherm model parameters found demonstrate that the Langmuir isotherm model is more acceptable for application in this research with values of R2 = 0.9956, qmax = 1.5126 mg/g, and KL = 0.0783 L/g. The Cr (VI) adsorption kinetics model employing acid-activated wood charcoal follows the pseudo-second-order kinetic equation with values of k2 = 0.0162 g/mg/minute, qe = 0.7927 mg/g, and R2 = 0.9543.

Abstract

In the past decade, coffee productivity, particularly instant coffee production, has experienced significant growth. This increase has generated more coffee grounds as a by-product, which is now widely utilized in the cosmetics and energy sectors, especially for producing coffee oil. Optimization of coffee oil isolation methods continues to be developed to improve efficiency. This study aims to obtain optimal values for the coffee oil diffusivity parameter (Da) and extraction rate constant (k). Coffee grounds extraction was performed using Hexane solvent with the aid of ultrasonic waves through a bath-type sonicator. The research was conducted with variations in temperature (30°C and 40°C) and extraction time (30, 60, 90, and 120 minutes). The research results showed that the coffee oil diffusivity values at temperatures of 30°C and 40°C were 9.93 x 10⁻¹⁰ and 9.99 x 10⁻¹⁰ dm²/s, respectively. The extraction rate constants obtained at each temperature were 0.450 and 0.667 dm/s.

Abstract

A technique for reducing the contamination of heavy metals in wastewater is the coagulationflocculation method. The approach has various advantages, including a simple process, readilyavailable chemicals, inexpensive equipment costs, and an excellent capacity to remove pollutants. The goal of this research is to see how well Mn-containing wastewater can be reduced using alum and calcium hydroxide as coagulants. The adsorption capacity of the coagulant combination in the floc generation phase of the coagulation-flocculation process can also be calculated. The technique used is coagulation-flocculation, with modifications made to the coagulant content and stirring duration. The data was then evaluated using an Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer (AAS) to assess the decrease Mn concentration in wastewater. According to the experiments, the combination of alum and calcium hydroxide coagulants with a mass composition ratio of alum:calcium hydroxide (150 mg:50 mg) and a stirring time of 15 minutes has the highest efficiency of 89.35% and is directly proportional to the adsorption capacity value of 446.75mg/gram.

Abstract

Sorghum plants contain bioactive compounds such as phenolic compounds and proanthocyanidins. The presence of these compounds is extremely valuable for use as antioxidants in health care. This study aims to determine the total phenolic content, total proanthocyanidin content, and antioxidant activity of purified red sorghum extract using the ultrafiltration membrane method with different transmembrane pressure. At pressures of 8, 9, and 10 Bar, an ultrafiltration process was carried out using a polyethersulfone (PES) membrane with a molecular weight cut-off size of 10 kDa. The total phenolic content was determined using the Folin-Ciocalteu method and identified using UV-Vis spectrophotometry at 760 nm. Total proanthocyanidin content was measured using the acid-butanol method and then analyzed using UV-Vis spectrophotometry at 550 nm. The DPPH (2,2-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl) method will be used to determine the antioxidant activity of purified red sorghum extract. The results of the measurements show that the higher the transmembrane pressure, the higher the concentration of phenolic and proanthocyanidins content, and that the purified red sorghum extract has a high antioxidant value (IC50 = 66.852 ppm).

Abstract

Industrial wastewater generated by nickel mining has a high content of heavy metals, one of which is Chromium Hexavalent or Cr(VI) metal. Commonly used methods in reducing Cr(VI) metal concentration are coagulation and adsorption. This method is the most economical, simple and highly efficient method. This research uses the coagulation - adsorption integration system method, which is a combination of coagulation and adsorption methods in stages and uses the same wastewater. The purpose of this research is to see the performance of alum, FeSO4 and a combination of alum: FeSO4 as coagulant and fly ash as adsorbent in the removal of Cr(VI) levels in wastewater samples. Also, the efficiency of using the coagulation - adsorption integration system in the removal of heavy metal levels. The adsorption capacity value of this process can also be calculated. The resulting data were then evaluated using a spectrophotometer visible to assess the reduction of Cr(VI) concentration in wastewater. Based on the experiment, alum type coagulant with a waste and coagulant composition ratio of 2:3 and a stirring time of 60 minutes can reduce Cr(VI) levels to 14.18 mg/L from 100 mg/L. The addition of the adsorption process using fly ash helped reduce the concentration of heavy metal Cr(VI) to 12.15 mg/L and the highest efficiency value was 87.9%, and the adsorption capacity value was 0.087 mg/gram.
