Abstract

Air pollution in enclosed spaces, particularly from carcinogenic substances such as smoke and hazardous gases, poses significant health risks. Effective detection and neutralization of these harmful compounds are crucial to ensuring indoor air quality and human safety. This study analysed the working system of a carcinogenic substance neutralization device that utilizes an MQ2 gas sensor and Arduino Uno for real-time monitoring and control. The system is designed to detect the presence of carbon monoxide (CO), liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), smoke, and other harmful gases using the MQ2 sensor. When the sensor detects a gas concentration exceeding a predefined threshold, the Arduino Uno microcontroller triggers an exhaust fan or an air purification mechanism to neutralize the pollutants. The system also features a real-time display and an alarm to alert users of hazardous gas levels. The experimental results indicate that the MQ2 sensor effectively detects gas concentrations with a fast response time. The Arduino-based control system efficiently activates the neutralization process, improving air quality in enclosed spaces. The integration of this system with smart monitoring devices can enhance air pollution management in industrial, residential, and commercial environments. This paper contributes to the development of low-cost, automated air purification systems for enclosed spaces, with potential applications in health safety, environmental protection, and industrial settings. Future research may focus on integrating IoT-based remote monitoring and advanced filtration technologies to enhance the system’s efficiency and adaptability.

Abstract

This study aims to analysed the working system of a carcinogenic substance neutralization device for smoke or gas in enclosed spaces, using an MQ3 sensor based on Arduino Uno. Carcinogenic substances in the form of smoke or gas can pose significant health risks, especially in areas with limited air circulation. The device developed in this research utilizes the MQ3 sensor to detect harmful gases, which are then processed through Arduino Uno to automatically activate the neutralization system. The research method involves the design, assembly, and testing of the neutralization system. The MQ3 sensor functions as a detector for hazardous gases at specific concentration levels, sending data to the Arduino Uno, which triggers the activation of a fan and air filter as the neutralization system. Testing was conducted in an enclosed space to evaluate the effectiveness of the system in reducing harmful gas concentrations over a given period. The results indicate that this neutralization device effectively detects and significantly reduces harmful gas concentrations. The MQ3 sensor is highly responsive to changes in gas levels, and the Arduino Uno-based system allows for efficient automated control. With these results, the device is expected to serve as a solution for improving indoor air quality and protecting users from exposure to carcinogenic substances.

Abstract

Electricity distribution networks often face efficiency challenges due to uncompensated reactive power, causing power factor degradation, increased power losses, and voltage instability. This study aims to analyze the use of Static Compensator (STATCOM) as a reactive power compensation solution in 20 kV distribution networks, with a focus on improving power factor, reducing power losses, and voltage staability. These challenges are relevant in Indonesia, where growing electricity demand and limited infrastructure exacerbate energy inefficiencies. The research methodology uses a quantitative approach based on simulation in MATLAB/Simulink. A simple distribution network model with one feeder (load 500 kW, 300 kVAR) is created, integrated with a STATCOM with a capacity of 300 kVAR. Simulations are carried out to compare conditions before and after the use of STATCOM at constant and fluctuating loads, measure power factor, power losses, and voltage profiles. The simulation results show that STATCOM improves the power factor from 0.857 to 1.0, reduces power losses by 26.5% (from 425.39 W to 312.50 W), and suppresses voltage drop from 24.51 V to 12.50 V. STATCOM effectively maintains voltage stability under disturbance conditions with a fast response (5-10 ms). However, the high initial cost indicates the need for economic optimization for practical implementation.

Abstract

Calibration of measuring instruments is an important aspect in ensuring the accu-racy and reliability of industrial production systems, including in the palm oil derivatives (CPO) processing sector. Digital scales play a crucial role in the weighing process of raw materials, semi-finished products, and final products. However, each calibration process is inseparable from measurement uncertainty that can affect the quality of production results. Where this study aims to analyze the level of measurement uncertainty in the calibration process of digital scales used in CPO derivative production units. The research method is carried out by collecting scale reading data with standard loading, calculating type A (statistical) and type B (non-statistical) uncertainties, as well as calculating com-bined uncertainty and expanded uncertainty in accordance with ISO GUM (Guide to the Expression of Uncertainty in Measurement). Thus, the results of the analysis show that the greatest uncertainty comes from the variation in readings (repeatability) and the tol-erance of the standard weights used. The combined uncertainty value obtained is within the range that meets the industrial calibration tolerance limit, but there are recommenda-tions for improving environmental control procedures during calibration to minimize fur-ther deviations.

Abstract

The development of renewable energy technology increases the need for efficient and reliable inverters to convert direct current into alternating current. This study aims to analyze the performance of a pure sine wave inverter using the EGS002 module as a pulse width modulation controller to produce a pure sine wave. The main issues studied are power conversion efficiency, output voltage stability, and total harmonic distortion (THD) under various load conditions, including resistive and non-linear loads. The research method involves experimental simulations using MATLAB/Simulink and Proteus software, by designing an inverter system based on the EGS002 module, IRF3205 MOSFET transistor, and LC filter. Performance parameters measured include power conversion efficiency (η), total harmonic distortion, and RMS output voltage (V_RMS). The simulation results show that the inverter achieves an average power conversion efficiency of 91.4%, total harmonic distortion below 5% under all load conditions, and output voltage stability with a deviation of less than 1% from the nominal value of 220 volts. These findings indicate that the EGS002 module is effective for inverter applications in renewable energy systems, although optimization is required for non-linear loads and production cost reduction. This research provides important insights for the development of more efficient and reliable inverters.
