Abstract

Corrosion engineering has taken great interest in many industries that required high cost management to overcome the serious problems. This work has investigated the role of watermelon peel extract as green inhibitor to protect carbon steel in seawater. This investigation has studied the corrosion rate and inhibition efficiency applying weight loss method.  The laboratory result shows the optimum inhibition efficiency found to be 71.64% at 5% inhibitor concentration in 100 ml seawater at room temperature. The effects of temperature and immersion time on inhibition efficiency have also been examined.  This study has used Arrhenius equation based on activation energy to determine type of adsorption encountered with corrosion process. The result shows a chemical adsorption justified by its high adsorption heat and strengthened by FTIR and UV-Vis examinations. The phytochemical examination of watermelon peel extract gives positive response to flavonoid, alkaloid, and saponin. The finding is useful for many industries encountered with carbon steel corrosion in corrosive medium using green inhibitor.

Abstract

Many industries dealing with manufacturing and HVAC (heating, ventilation, and air cooling) are rely heavily on thermodynamics principles with respect to heat and mass transfer. The objective of this study is to do optimization to yield optimum heat transfer rate and minimized pressure drop with regard to number of circular turbulator (CT) and water debit on Nusselt number (Nu) in counter current double pipe heat exchanger. This work has applied the classical rule of thermal science dealing with Nusselt number in relation to convection and conduction of heat transfer rate due to temperature effect. The result shows the highest Nu found to be 835.3 at 5 CT and water debit of 9 L/min. The addition of CT number gives effect on fluid current due to vortex generation. This study also investigates the effect of CT number on friction coefficient that the friction coefficient of a heat exchanger in the absence of CT is lower than that in the presence of CT. For any CT number, the friction coefficient is reduced with increasing water debit. The study has also found that the thermal performance ratio has achieved higher values for heat exchanger in the absence of CT.

Abstract

Pressurization system in fire stairs is required for high-rise building for safety evacuation in fire attack. This paper has highlighted on the problem of WTC 6 high-rise building with 18 floors related to safety evacuation in fire attack. In real situation, the minimum air pressure (12.5 Pa) at closed condition and minimum air velocity (1 m/s) at open door chamber in fire stairs as stated in the SNI 03-6571-2001 requirements are not fulfilled by the WTC 6 high-rise building. Therefore, a CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) simulation has been used to overcome the problems. The CFD results show that volumetric air flow rate of 7.24 m3/s injected to fire stairs in multiple injection system yielded pressure difference of 39.5–44.7 Pa and air velocity of 1.1–1.2 m/s. The CFD simulation implemented in real situation yields air pressure difference of 38.2 Pa in closed condition and air velocity in open door chamber of 1.16 m/s assumed to solve the problem.

Abstract

Extraction of heavy metals from mineral concentrate applying leaching acids is a major issue due to simple, fast, and economical process. This article aims to present the application of acetic acid and sulfuric acid for lead (Pb) extraction from galena concentrate applying roasting (600oC and 60 min.) and peroxide oxidant (0.5 M) for 60 min. leaching process. Nowadays, lead has been broadly applied for batteries, besides for PVC tubes, chemicals, paint color, and alloys for joint. The peroxide increases the percentage of Pb extraction. This study shows the effect of acid concentrations (1.0 M, 1.5 M, and 2.0 M), temperatures (30, 50, and 70oC), and stirring speed (200, 400, and 600 rpm) on Pb extraction from galena. A particle size of galena ≤ 200 mesh after roasting has been used for leaching process. AAS has been used to determine Pb concentration in solution after leaching process. This study shows that acetic acid is a better leaching agent rather than sulfuric acid due to lead sulfate precipitation. Optimization result shows leaching with acetic acid achieved 35.64 ppm Pb extraction using 2.0 M acetic acid, 50oC, and stirring speed of 200 rpm. This study used low-cost acids as leaching agent for Pb recovery that can be viewed as a preliminary breakthrough in heavy metal recovery. The simple leaching technique looks promising for future application on heavy metal separation from mining mineral.

Abstract

Air receiver tank in electrical generator used as pressured air vessel is mainly consisted of shell cylinder and head part. This work has searched for the more suitable material to be used for the shell and head of the proposed air receiver tank because the older material (SPV 355) has some limitations. This study has been conducted based on several parameters in standard references. The calculations have applied relevant technical formulas such as corrosion factor, thickness design, and Maximum Allowable Working Pressure (MAWP). There are three types of selected materials available that are expected to yield similar previous condition parameters addressing to operational pressure 10 bar and temperature 40oC, i.e., SA-36 (Type I), SA-516 Gr 70 (Type II), and SS-304 (Type III). The economic factor is also taken into consideration. Considering the economic cost and mechanical characteristics, finally the material of Type II is selected to be the most appropriate material to replace SPV 355 material for the proposed air receiver tank. In the upcoming, this study is useful for the knowledge of material design.

Abstract

In this investigation, the impact of silicon dioxide (SiO2) and zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles on the performance of a refrigeration machine system was systematically examined. The focus was on evaluating the coefficient of performance (COP) concerning the utilization of a polyolester (POE) lubricant, R600a refrigerant, and distinct nanoparticles (SiO2 and ZnO) within the refrigeration system. The nanoparticles were individually introduced into the R600a refrigerant in masses of 0.5 g, 1.0 g, and 1.5 g. The experimental outcomes demonstrated a noteworthy enhancement in COP with the addition of nanoparticles. Specifically, the introduction of 1.5 g of SiO2 resulted in a substantial increase of 25.88% in COP, marking it as the most influential dosage. Similarly, the addition of 1.0 g of ZnO led to a significant COP increase of 13.6%, representing the optimal quantity for ZnO. Furthermore, the inclusion of 1.5 g of SiO2 brought about a remarkable reduction in energy consumption, with a decrease of 25.58%, while 1.5 g of ZnO resulted in a notable 16.28% decrease in energy consumption. The experimental configuration involved the use of 20 g of refrigerant and 500 ml of POE lubricant. Comparative analysis demonstrated that the refrigeration system incorporating nanoparticles outperformed the conventional R600a refrigeration system devoid of nanoparticles. This study contributes valuable insights into the potential enhancements in refrigeration system efficiency through the strategic incorporation of SiO2 and ZnO nanoparticles, offering a promising avenue for optimizing the performance of refrigeration technology.

Abstract

Titanium has found widespread application across various industries due to its high corrosion resistance. It is commonly used in dental equipment, surgical instruments, bone implants, and marine components, and serves as an engine material in high-temperature environments. Because of its lighter weight compared to steel, titanium has also replaced stainless steel in many construction materials. In Bangka Island, Indonesia, tin tailings have been identified as a potential source of titanium, making the analysis of titanium in these tailings highly significant. This study employed the froth flotation method, known for its simplicity, speed, and cost-effectiveness, to analyze titanium content from tin tailings. Sodium oleate was used as the frother and collector, while sodium chlorate acted as the depressant. The mass ratios of depressant to collector were varied at fixed collector amounts (1:10, 5:10, 10:10, and 15:10) and fixed depressant amounts (10:3, 10:6, 10:9, and 10:12). The highest titanium concentration (2.03%) was achieved with a mass ratio of 10:12, while the optimal titanium recovery (45.51%) in the concentrate occurred with equal amounts (3.75 g) of depressant and collector, or at a mass ratio of 10:10, at 15 minutes of flotation time and neutral pH. X-ray fluorescence (XRF) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) analyses indicated that the tin tailings primarily contained silicate and zircon minerals, with traces of titanium in the form of rutile, ilmenite, and titanate. These findings contribute valuable insights for future titanium extraction and processing industries.
