Abstract

Agarwood is one of the forest products that can be utilized and has a high selling value. Agarwood contains essential oils which have many active compounds and contains a specific aromatic resin that is naturally formed as a form of defense against physical damage or microbial infection. Agarwood essential oil with good quality has a high economic value. This study aims to extract agarwood essential oil using ethanol as a solvent. The optimal yield of agarwood essential oil can be obtained by varying the particle size, the ratio of the weight of the agarwood biomass (kg) to the volume of the solvent (L), and the length of maceration (h). The results showed that the particle size of agarwood did notaffect the yield of agarwood essential oil. The results of the comparison of agarwood biomass with the volume of the solvent showed that the ratio of 1:9 (w/v) obtained the highest yield of 4.02% and the longest maceration time with the highest yield of 4.12% for 72 hours. However, 48 hours of maceration had a greater increase in yield compared to 72 hours of maceration. The increase in yield at 48 hours to 72 hours of maceration was only 0.22% when compared to the increase in yield at 24 hours to 48 hours of maceration, which was 0.56%.

Abstract

Oil palm empty fruit bunch (EFB) is one of the biomass wastes that have a great potential of a bioenergy resource due to its natural properties, such as high calorific value. The conversion of EFB biomass into valuable biofuels can achieved through biochemical and thermochemical processes. Tar (bio-oil), the liquid product from the pyrolysis is one of the most attractive biofuels. The study aims to determine the effect of temperature process of pyrolysis EFB on its tar production under droptube reactor. The results showed that maximum tar yield was 43,80% obtained at 500 °C. The EFB tar produced at 500 °C was also determined to have a higher of phenol compound at 51,9%. The high phenolic content indicates its potential to be used for the production of renewable phenolic resins. Hence, the present work of pyrolysis of EFB presents itself as a promising method to produce phenol rich tar (bio-oil) from biomass waste.

Abstract

The agricultural sector is one of the main pillars of the economy in Koto Tangah District. Increasing agricultural production requires the support of fertilizer availability in terms of quantity and price. In order to provide fertilizer at competitive prices, fertilizers are needed at low prices and are environmentally friendly. This community service activity is given to the community in Lubuk Minturun Village in the form of training in the manufacture of liquid organic fertilizer (POC) with a fermentation process and extracts of lemongrass. The main ingredient of this fertilizer is rice waste which can be easily collected by local people. The training covers the process of making fertilizer, the fermentation process to packaging. Lemongrass extract is added to increase nutrients in the soil and reduce odors from the fermentation process. The proposing team took this theme in order to provide an alternative for making POCs to the community in Lubuk Minturun Village in the hope of contributing to local flower or fruit plant nurseries. In this case, the proposing team took Lubuk Minturun Village as a model because this area is located close to the ATI Padang Polytechnic Campus, so that it can help the lives of the people around the campus.

Abstract

Coffee, as a major commodity in Indonesia, produces a huge number of byproducts and residues during the processing process. Coffee wastes and byproducts produced during coffee berry processing are a major source of contamination and represent significant environmental challenges in the coffee production process. One promising alternative in utilizing coffee wastes is converting into energy source i.e, of biogas from coffee pulp. Coffee pulp has toxic components that act as a methane inhibitor; these type of biomass have a problem with the lignin degradation process, which binds cellulose and hemicellulose. The use of cow's rumen fluid for methane production from coffee pulp is still rare, particularly for rumen fluid. Chemical pretreatment was carried out using alkali-peroxide followed by rumen fluid pretreatment. The performance of biogas produced from coffee pulp (with and without pretreatment) using rumen fluid as an inoculum has been investigated. Biogas was produced in a semi-batch reactor with a working volume of 2 liters for 30 days. Removal lignin, SS, VFA, and biogas yield were measured. This study aims to determine the biogas production from coffee pulp using variation HRT 20 and 30 days. It can be concluded that chemical pretreatment of NaOH - H2O2 combination can reduce lignin up to 75.02%. The volume of biogas produced increased with chemical pretreatment and rumen fluid as compared to the substrate with only rumen pretreatment According to Gas Chromatography analysis, the methane gas obtained from chemical pretreatment and rumen with HRT 30 days is 47.93%, while the methane obtained from rumen pretreatment with HRT 30 days is 34.28%.

Abstract

Pada proses pembuatan amonia salah satunya ialah shift converter yang berfungsi untuk mengonversi kandungan CO menjadi CO2. Di dalam shift converter terdiri dari HTS (High Temperature Shift Converter) dan LTS (Low Temperature Shift Converter). Kinerja HTS harus dievaluasi secara terus menerus agar tidak menyebabkan kerusakan pada unit purifikasi atau yang lainnya dan menghasilkan produk yang optimal, maka perlu dilakukan kajian mengenai alat tersebut dengan cara menghitung nilai kinerja alat High Temperature Shift dengan cara  membandingkan nilai data desain dengan nilai data aktual. Penelitian ini dilakukan selama 6 minggu dari bulan Juli sampai Agustus 2023 dan merupakan jenis penelitian deskriptif kuantitatif. Data kuantitatif dikumpulkan melalui pengamatan secara langsung pada alat High Temperature Shift (HTS) Converter (104-D1) di Unit Amonia Pabrik PT. Pupuk Sriwidjaja II-B. Dari hasil perhitungan didapatkan seluruh konversi CO secara aktual pada bulan Juli sampai Agustus 2023 melebihi data desain yaitu >70%, sedangkan konversi CO secara desain 69,208%. Secara aktual, konsentrasi CO yang keluar sudah lebih kecil daripada desain. Sehingga dapat disimpulkan bahwa kinerja HTS dalam mengubah CO menjadi CO2 dalam kondisi baik.

Abstract

A company in North Sumatra is engaged in the processing of palm oil into fatty acid and glycerin. In the current industrial process, crude palm oil is hydrolyzed into fatty acids and glycerol at a temperature of 250°C and a pressure of 53 bar for 7-8 hours in a splitting column. The success rate of the hydrolysis reaction is measured by the splitting degree, where a higher splitting degree indicates a more complete hydrolysis reaction. A common issue is that the acid value and saponification value in the splitting process are not optimal due to factors such as the height of the interphase level. The acid value and saponification value are crucial in determining the splitting degree. Therefore, it is necessary to analyze the impact of the interphase level on the splitting degree and the yield of the hydrolysis process in the splitting column. The results indicate that the efficient interphase level for the fat splitting hydrolysis process is at 3 oil = 4.2 meters (Point 0).

Abstract

Waste from the tofu industry is a byproduct of the tofu production process that can have negative environmental impacts if not managed properly. CV. Dapur Tahu still discharges liquid waste directly into the river, posing a potential threat of river water pollution. Although a new reservoir and waste disposal channel are under construction, there is currently no effective waste treatment facility in place. To address this issue, a tofu wastewater treatment facility utilizing filtration technology is proposed due to its simplicity of operation, durability, and high efficiency in removing organic contaminants. The technology comprises a multi-stage filtration process involving sand filters (pumice, zeolite, and activated charcoal) combined with ultrafiltration membrane technology, complemented by a monitoring system consisting of TDS, pH, and temperature sensors. The multi-stage filtration process is capable of reducing TDS levels to 160 ppm, resulting in visibly clearer wastewater compared to the initial turbid white condition. The installation of IoT-based monitoring devices in the wastewater treatment process significantly aids in real-time water quality monitoring, accessible via mobile phone screens.

Abstract

Keterbatasan sumber daya berbasis fosil mendorong pencarian bahan bakar alternatif yang lebih berkelanjutan, salah satunya bioetanol dari limbah biomassa. Limbah padat aren, hasil samping dari ekstraksi nira, memiliki potensi besar sebagai bahan baku bioetanol meskipun kandungan ligninnya yang tinggi menghambat proses hidrolisis. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengevaluasi pengaruh kombinasi pretreatment, hidrolisis, dan fermentasi terhadap produksi bioetanol. Pretreatment menggunakan kombinasi asam sulfat (H₂SO₄) 5% dan organosolv dengan etanol dilakukan untuk meningkatkan delignifikasi. Pada hidrolisis, enzim selulase Trichoderma reesei dan xilanase digunakan untuk mengubah hemiselulosa dan selulosa menjadi gula reduksi. Dalam proses fermentasi, Saccharomyces cerevisiae dan S. cerevisiae - Pichia stipitis digunakan untuk mengubah gula menjadi bioetanol. Hasil menunjukkan delignifikasi tertinggi dicapai pada pretreatment H₂SO₄ 5% dan organosolv selama 60 menit. Yield bioetanol tertinggi (0,26%) diperoleh dengan kombinasi S. cerevisiae dan P. stipitis selama fermentasi 72 jam. Penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa kombinasi proses pretreatment dan hidrolisis secara efektif dapat digunakan untuk mengkonversi limbah padat aren menjadi bioetanol.
