Abstract

The problem of plastic waste that needs to be handled and managed optimally can cause environmental damage. This study aims to test the compressive strength and water absorption value of paving blocks made of plastic which are designed using a mixed variation of V50-50 (50% sand, 50% plastic), V25-75 (25% sand, 75% plastic) and V0-100 (0% sand, 100% plastic) of the total proportion of the paving blocks mix. The method is carried out by melting PP (Polypropylene) mineral glass plastic, mixing with sand based on variations, printing according to the size of the paving block, and using as a test sample in the form of a dice. The average compressive strength test results show that the model with code V25-75 has a relatively higher compressive strength value than V50-50 and V0-100. The average compressive strength value of the sample with code V25-75 is 11.53 MPa, followed by code V50-50 of 9.63 MPa, and the lowest is coded V0-100 of 3.70 MPa. The compressive strength value is influenced by the optimal percentage between sand and plastic; plastic serves as a binder for sand in a mixture of paving blocks. The rate of water absorption value will continue to decrease along with the addition of plastic waste in the paving block mixture; V50-50 is 1.44, V25-75 is 0.88, and V0-100 is 0.16. This research is expected to be applied by the community to make paving block products to reduce the amount of plastic waste globally.

Abstract

The spillway is a hydraulic structure characterized by a channel with a steep longitudinal slope. Variations in the channel cross-section significantly influence the flow characteristics, particularly the transition from subcritical to supercritical flow conditions. A series of physical model experiments were conducted to investigate the flow behavior along the spillway structure by modifying the configuration of the baffle blocks in accordance with the standard design criteria for energy dissipation systems. High flow discharge in a steep channel generates considerable flow velocity and kinetic energy. Variations in flow pressure as water passes through the spillway structure strongly affect the downstream safety, especially concerning potential erosion of the riverbanks and channel bed. The implementation of baffle blocks along the chute effectively reduces flow energy, thereby altering flow behavior and velocity distribution over time. The findings of this study reveal that the upstream water depth is directly proportional to the energy magnitude at the downstream section of the spillway. This result demonstrates the effectiveness of the baffle blocks in dissipating flow energy, as confirmed through both analysis and experimental observations. It can be concluded that the fluid friction observed along the channel results from transitional flow phenomena occurring within the chute section.

Abstract

Domestic wastewater from residential areas is a significant source of environmental pollution. Daily activities such as washing, bathing, and defecating produce wastewater containing organic matter, nutrients, and pathogens. If not properly treated, domestic wastewater can cause environmental pollution, public health problems, and ecosystem damage. Therefore, effective domestic wastewater treatment is necessary to mitigate these negative impacts. Domestic wastewater treatment can be carried out using physical, chemical, and biological methods. This article discusses various domestic wastewater treatment methods, including physical, chemical, and biological treatment, as well as the implementation of effective and efficient domestic wastewater treatment systems to help reduce environmental pollution and improve public health.
