Abstract

Water hyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes) is known as an aquatic weed that has rapid growth. However, the water hyacinth has the ability to remove metals from water as it acts as a natural adsorbent. Calcium ion is one of the metallic ions which can cause hardness and scaling in high temperature, resulting in a decrease of the efficiency of industrial equipment. In this research, the water hyacinth was regenerated with HCl and used as an adsorbent to adsorb calcium ion. The effect of HCl concentration and calcium ion concentration on the adsorption capacity of calcium ion was investigated. The results show that adsorption capacity of calcium ion increased as the concentration of HCl increased up to 3 M. At higher concentration of HCl, 4 M and 5 M, the adsorption capacity decreased because some functional groups of hydroxyl and carboxyl which play an important role in adsorption process are cleavage. Maximum adsorption capacity was achieved at 38,733 mg Ca/gr adsorbent with regeneration of adsorbent at HCl 3M and 500 ppm of calcium ion

Abstract

Bioplastics such as cellulose nanofibers (CNF) are widely used in daily life as an alternative to plastics. CNF is also considered a biodegradable, readily disposable, and low-cost material, making it suitable as a sensor platform. The mechanically treated CNF has both hydrophobic and hydrophilic properties where the hydrophobic sides bond strongly with MWCNTs to provide conductivity on the CNF sheet, while the hydrophilic sides allow the target component to be adsorbed on its laminated structure and react with the electrode surface. From an electrochemical measurement of ferricyanide solution indicated that the MWCNTs modified CNF could act well as electrode. Furthermore, the thin-sheet electrode successfully detected ethanol based on a direct electron transfer (DET) between PQQ-ADH and the MWCNTs on the electrode surface. Aside from its lightweight properties, the developed CNF electrode possesses excellent stretchability, flexibility, and adjustability to human skin, making it ideal for a future wearable skin gas sensor.
