Abstract

Plastics are widely used in various aspects of life due to their variety of superior properties. However, they contribute a negative impact on the environment, which leads to the search for an alternative solution such as the production of bioplastics as biodegradable plastics. Therefore, this study aims to evaluate the psycho-mechanic quality of bioplastic from glutinous rice starch reinforced with bamboo leaf powder. The bioplastic synthesis process was carried out using 0, 1, 3, 5, and 7% (w/w) variations of bamboo leaf powder on glutinous rice starch, respectively. The results showed that the best bioplastic composition was the addition of 3% (w/w) bamboo leaf powder to glutinous rice starch. This indicated that the addition of bamboo leaf powder in bioplastics can enhance the thickness, hardness, and tensile strength significantly. Meanwhile, the value of density, water vapor transmission rate, and elongation showed a slight increase, and the bioplastic also degraded more than 70% for 7 days.

Abstract

The presence of heavy metal Cr(VI) in water indicates environmental pollution. Heavy metal Cr(VI) that exceeds the standard can be harmful to health because it is toxic and carcinogenic. Activated carbon can be used as a heavy metal adsorbent. Modification of activated carbon using nitric acid can increase metal adsorption capacity. Therefore, this study aims to determine the kinetic of hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)) removal by corn cob-based activated carbon modified with nitric acid. The modified activated carbon was characterized by Boehm titration and FTIR spectrophotometer. The adsorption capacity was identified in various parameters, involving the initial concentration of Cr(VI), pH value, contact time, and concentration of the adsorbent to obtain the optimal Cr(VI) removal efficiency value. The most optimal Cr(VI) adsorption was obtained at an activated carbon dosage of 3 g/L, pH value of 1, contact time of 140 minutes, and 100 mg/l Cr(VI) concentration. Based on adsorption kinetics data, the pseudo-second-order equation was obtained (R2 =0.994). The adsorption phenomenon followed the Langmuir isotherm model (R2 = 0.998) with an optimum adsorption capacity of 28.32 mg/g. Corn cob-activated carbon modified with nitric acid has many acidic groups that act as effective active sites for reducing Cr(VI) from water.

Abstract

Purpose: Sorting waste before it is deposited in the Final Disposal Site (TPA) is crucial to reduce the increasing amount of waste accumulation each year. This issue can be addressed by implementing machines capable of automatically sorting waste.Design/methodology/approach: This research is quantitative and utilizes secondary data, namely image data of various types of waste. The images will be classified into organic and inorganic waste using a deep learning model. The measurement conducted involves assessing the accuracy of the designed deep learning model in classifying waste images into appropriate categories.Fondings/results: Based on the available dataset, waste identification will be performed, including food waste, paper, wood, leaves, electronic waste, metal, plastic, and bottles. The overall accuracy of the model is 94.42%, indicating that the model correctly classifies 94.42% of waste samples.Originality/value/state of the art: This research can classify 8 types of waste classes successfully using deep learning.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the effect of phytoremediation on the bioremoval of COD, ammonia, and Cr (VI) from tannery wastewater and examine its effect on the growth of Chlorella populations. The research method consisted of two stages: first, preparation of liquid waste media. The second is culturing pure cultures followed by microalgae cultivation using leather tanning liquid waste media with a concentration variation of 0%, 10%, 20%, and 30% v/v. Filtrate samples after harvest were analyzed for COD, ammonia, and Cr (VI). The results obtained in this study show that Chlorella can grow in tanning waste media. The highest exponential phase occurs at a concentration of 20% with a growth rate of 0.557. Tannery liquid waste contains inorganic minerals utilized by Chlorella pyrenoidosa cells for growth. Cultivation of Chlorella pyrenoidosa can reduce leather tanning liquid waste parameters, namely COD, ammonia, and Cr (VI).

Abstract

The cycle time is the integral factors of the production process. The higher the cycle time, the longer the time for the production process so as to reduce the efficiency and effectiveness of the production process. Plastic cap production uses an injection molding machine. The time required to produce a plastic cap is relatively high is about 33 seconds. This study aims to reduce the cycle time of plastic caps production during the injection molding process through simulation using Autodesk Moldflow software. Simulation was conducted to determine the optimal temperature parameter where other parameters are kept constant. The design of this simulation experiment used the Taguchi method with an orthogonal array as the simulation matrix. The simulation results was analyzed using the Minitab 19 software to determine the response value of the S/N ratio in the smaller is better category. Based on the value of the S/N ratio, the optimal combination of process temperature parameters is 180°C for melt temperature and 32°C for mold temperature to be able to reduce cycle time by 9.34 seconds. The simulation results show that the cycle time required for plastic cap production is 23.66 seconds.

Abstract

The accumulation of plastic waste has become one of the major environmental issues in Indonesia, where conventional waste management systems are still limited in handling and classifying various types of waste. This research aims to develop an automatic waste detection system using Artificial Intelligence (AI) and implement it in a mobile application capable of identifying plastic waste in real time. The model was trained using the WasteIn dataset, which contains annotated images of different waste categories, including plastic, paper, glass, metal, organic, and electronic waste. The YOLO11-Nano architecture was applied due to its lightweight structure and efficiency for mobile-based deployment. The trained model was then converted into TensorFlow Lite (TFLite) format and integrated into an Android Studio environment to enable real-time inference through smartphone cameras. Based on the evaluation of 36 test images, the system achieved an accuracy of 91.67%, with consistent performance in detecting plastic, paper, and organic waste. The inference time of less than 100 milliseconds per frame demonstrates the system’s feasibility for real-time mobile applications. The results indicate that the integration of deep learning and computer vision technologies can effectively support waste classification processes and contribute to sustainable waste management practices.
