Abstract

This study aimed to determine effect of oxygen enrichment and magnetic field direction on the flame behavior kapok oil combustion. Experiment was carried out to obtain flame evolution, temperature and height. Kapok oil (600 ml) was put in the boiler, and heated to 300°C. A burner chamber is placed for the reaction between kapok oil vapor with air from compressor and oxygen. Two permanent magnets of neodymium nickel grade N52 with intensity 1.1 Tesla were placed on side of burner tip. Results showed the magnetic field produce more transparent, slimmer flames with highest temperature of 679°C, lowest flames height of 5 mm. Magnetic fields produce a Lorentz force that breaks the fuel chemical chain and creates magnetic pulses in the flames. Oxygen contained in air around the burner coupled with oxygen enrichment create excessive oxidizing gas to separate and release electrons. Excessive oxygen results in a higher flame temperature due to faster combustion reaction. The magnetic fields around flames induces flow air which magnetically cause heat transfer around the flame, resulted variable flame height. This combustion produces different flame evolution, temperature, and height. Keywords: Flames behavior, Flames colour, Kapok oil, Magnetic field, Premixed combustion.

Abstract

The objectives of this research are to analyze the chemical and physical properties of bioethanol as well as production costs. Data were collected using experimental methods. The raw material, musa paradisiaca artocarpus Peel, was processed through saccharification, fermentation, and distillation. The experiment used 500 grams of peel, 25 grams of yeast, and 20 grams of urea, with fermentation lasting four days and five-stage distillation conducted at 78°C, utilizing pumice stone adsorbent with a 70-mesh size. Chemical properties of the bioethanol were tested using ASTM standards: ethanol content (D5501), methanol content (D5501), water content (D1744), copper (D1688), acidity (D1613), chloride (D512), sulfur (D2622), and gum content (D381). Physical properties were tested using ASTM standards: density (D1298), kinematic viscosity (D445), flash point (D93), heating value (D240), boil point (D2892), pH (D6423), and octane number (D976). The results of the chemical property analysis showed that the bioethanol contained 99.65%-v ethanol, 0.02% methanol, 0.01% water, 0.02 mg/kg copper, 19 mg/l acidity, 16.75 mg/l chloride, 0.01 mg/l sulfur, and 1.02 mg/100 ml gum. The physical property analysis results revealed a density of 0.787 g/cm³, kinematic viscosity of 1.28 cSt, flash point of 18°C, boiling point of 78°C, heating value of 6985 kcal/kg, pH of 6.9, and an octane number of 107. Production costs for producing 1 litre bioethanol from musa paradisiaca artocarpus Peel with 99.65%-v ethanol content costs Rp.47,782,. Overall, this bioethanol offers excellent performance and environmental benefits, making it a viable alternative to as a substitute or a mixture of gasoline fuels.

Abstract

Desa Bendorejo Kecamatan Pogalan Kabupaten Trenggalek merupakan sentra/pusat pembuat dan penjual alen-alen dan makanan khas Trenggalek. Alen-alen adalah makanan khas daerah Trenggalek yang bentuknya seperti cincin. Masyarakat Trenggalek menjadikan alen-alen sebagai camilan sehari-hari di kala musim hujan maupun musim panas sebagai teman minum kopi dan ada juga yang dijadikan pelengkap makan seperti krupuk. Permasalahan di IKM mitra (“RESTU IBU’’ dan “ANUGERAH”) adalah: (1) permasalahan aspek produksi, yakni rendahnya kualitas dan kuantitas produksi alen-alen disebabkan oleh proses penirisan minyak yang kurang maksimal, karena masih menggunakan alat peniris minyak seadanya sehingga hasilnya tidak optimal (kandungan minyak masih banyak dan mudah tengik) dan (2) permasalahan aspek manajemen yakni lemahnya pengelolaan manajemen UMKM pembuat alen-alen yang mencakup manajemen keuangan, manajemen produksi, manajemen sumber daya manusia dan manajemen pemasaran. Solusi yang ditawarkan untuk memecahkan permasalahan yang dialami oleh industri mitra adalah: 1) dibuatkan mesin spiner (peniris minyak) yang terbuat dari steanlis steel yang digerakkan oleh motor listrik dengan kecepatan putaran yang bisa diatur sesuai kebutuhan/tergantung jumlah dan jenis produk; 2) perbaikan manajemen yakni lemahnya pengelolaan manajemen UMKM pembuat alen-alen yang mencakup manajemen keuangan, manajemen produksi, manajemen sumber daya manusia dan manajemen pemasaran. Hasil pelaksanaan PKM-UMKN menunjukkan bawa mesin spiner yang telah dihasilkan dan dilaksanakan pengujian, hasilnya layak digunakan untuk penirisan minyak. Hasil uji lama penirisan menunjukkan bahwa dengan menggunakan spiner dengan penggerak motor listrik lebih cepat 12 kali jika dibandingkan dengan peniris tradisional, lebih cepat 4 kali jika dibandingkan dengan alat peniris yang digerakkan dinamo. Produksi penirisan menghasilkan 18 kg/jam, hal ini naik 4 kali jika dibandingkan dengan mesin penggerak dinamo dan naik 12 kali jika dibandingkan dengan peniris tradisional. Sedang dari hasil pelatihan dan pendapingan manajemen keuangan, manajemen produksi, manajemen sumber daya manusia dan manajemen pemasaran, menjukkan semua peserta mengikuti sangat antusias, dan 15% peserta pelatihan menyatan puas, 85% peserta pelatihan menyatan sangat puas terhadap pelaksanaan pelatihan.
