Abstract

Sebagai tanaman pangan pokok di beberapa daerah tropis, singkong memiliki potensi besar untuk digunakan dalam produksi gula cair seperti glukosa atau sirup fruktosa. Dengan menggunakan asam sulfat, asam klorida, hidrolisis enzimatik, atau kombinasi dari metode-metode ini, pati dapat dihidrolisis untuk menghasilkan sirup glukosa. Hidrolisis enzimatik oleh α-amylase dan glukoamilase dapat menghasilkan glukosa. Pembuatan gula cair dari pati singkong dilakukan dalam dua tahapan yaitu likuifikasi dan sakarifikasi. Pada tahapan likuifikasi didapatkan pH optimum yaitu 5 dengan konsentrasi gula reduksi tertimggi 142 gr/L dimana aktivitas enzim α-amilase bekerja pada range pH asam lemah hingga pH netral. Pada tahapan sakarifikasi didapatkan pH optimum 6 dan waktu sakarifikasi dihitung dari 0-36 jam. Salah satu faktor yang mempengaruhi proses hidrolisis enzimatik adalah pH, dimana pada proses sakarifikasi diamati pada rentang pH 3 hingga 8, didapatkan hasil optimum yaitu pada pH 5 dengan konsentrasi gula reduksi 192 gr/L.

Abstract

The complex fertilizer industry produces wastewater which contributes to the pollution of water bodies because it contains high levels of phosphate and ammonium concentrations and high TKN (Total Kjeldahl Nitrogen) which contains organic nitrogen. The organic nitrogen contained in the complex fertilizer wastewater is urea so it can be hydrolyzed to ammonium using the urease enzyme. The ammonium formed from the hydrolysis of urea will then react with magnesium and phosphate to form struvite, a crystal of Magnesium Ammonium Phosphate (MAP). The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of aeration and the enzyme urease in the removal of ammonium and phosphate in complex fertilizer synthetic wastewater through struvite precipitation. Struvite precipitation was carried out in a batch reactor which had a working volume of 0.5 L with variations in aeration rate, aeration time, and the addition of urease enzyme from Jack bean peas (Canavalia ensiformis). Residual ammonium and phosphate levels were analyzed and struvite crystal formation (MAP) was determined using Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The results showed that the aeration reactor was able to form struvite crystals and remove the ammonium and phosphate content in the synthetic wastewater of complex fertilizers. The removal of ammonium with a molar ratio of [Mg2+] : [NH4+] : [PO43-] 1:2:1 reached 61-77% at high aeration rates because a lot of ammonium was released into the air. The phosphate removal reached 99%. The urease enzyme was proven to be able to hydrolyze urea into ammonium and increase the pH value and affect the shape of the resulting struvite crystals. The precipitate product obtained was struvite crystals which were confirmed by analysis using SEM-EDX and XRD.

Abstract

Decanter merupakan alat yang digunakan untuk mengutip kembali kandungan minyak yang masih terdapat di dalam sludge dengan metode sentrifugal. Jika decanter tidak bekerja dengan efisien, maka kadar air, minyak, dan solid akan meningkat, yang dapat merugikan pihak pabrik. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengevaluasi pengaruh laju alir umpan terhadap persentase kehilangan minyak di water phase dan solid phase pada decanter. Adapun variasi laju alir umpan yang digunakan adalah 21, 22, dan 23 ton/jam. Penelitian ini dilakukan dengan memvariasikan laju alir umpan ke dalam decanter pada 21, 22, dan 23 ton/jam. Evaluasi dilakukan untuk menentukan losses pada water phase dan solid phase dari keluaran decanter. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa losses pada solid phase tertinggi terjadi pada laju umpan 23 ton/jam dengan rata-rata selama seminggu sebesar 3,38%, sedangkan losses terendah terjadi pada laju umpan 21 ton/jam dengan rata-rata selama seminggu sebesar 3,27%. Ini menunjukkan bahwa laju umpan 21 ton/jam memiliki pemisahan antara minyak dan solid yang lebih efisien dibandingkan dengan laju umpan 23 ton/jam. Pada water phase, losses tertinggi terjadi pada laju umpan 23 ton/jam dengan rata-rata selama seminggu sebesar 0,81%, sedangkan losses terendah terjadi pada laju umpan 21 ton/jam dengan rata-rata selama seminggu sebesar 0,80%. Hasil ini sejalan dengan losses pada solid phase decanter.

Abstract

Plastic waste is a global environmental issue due to its non-biodegradable nature. One potential solution is the development of eco-friendly bioplastics derived from natural materials. This study aims to develop bioplastics based on sago starch with the addition of microfibrillated cellulose (MFC) from empty palm oil fruit bunches as a reinforcing filler to enhance mechanical properties. Additionally, plasticizers such as glycerol and sorbitol were added to improve the elasticity of the bioplastic. The plasticizer concentrations used were 1, 5, 10, 20, and 30% w/w. Characterization was conducted through mechanical property tests (tensile strength, elastic modulus, and elongation percentage), morphological analysis using SEM, and structural analysis with Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR spectroscopy). The results showed that the addition of 5% glycerol produced a tensile strength of 26.39 MPa with an elongation of 1.2%, while 20% sorbitol yielded a tensile strength of 25.35 MPa with an elongation of 6.2%. Based on the Indonesian National Standard (SNI) for plastics, the combination of sago starch and MFC with 20% sorbitol provided the best mechanical properties, with a tensile strength of 25.35 MPa and an elongation percentage of 5.6%. In conclusion, sago starch-based bioplastic with MFC from oil palm empty fruit bunches has the potential to serve as an environmentally friendly alternative to synthetic plastics

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

West Sumatra has a high potential of coconut resources with most of it being processed for copra products. The pandemic situation in recent years has caused the price of copra products to fluctuate, so an alternative coconut processing is needed. Virgin Coconut Oil (VCO) is an alternative coconut product that can increase economic value of coconut and is needed as a supplement that can strengthen the body's immune system during the Covid-19 pandemic. One of the efforts to train the community to be able to process coconut into VCO is to conduct training activities that are directly located in the coconut farmer cluster, which is carried out in Sungai Sirah Village, South Coast District, West Sumatra. This community service activity aims to increase the competence of farmers in the village so that they can process the coconut produced into VCO, hence help their economy when the price of copra drops. The stages of the activity start from socialization, presentation on production process, and continued with demonstrating how to make VCO. Participants were divided into several small groups where they could immediately practice how to make this VCO with the correct fermentation steps. After the manufacturing process is well understood, the next step was training of how to do packaging and marketing. Farmers were trained on how to package products in order to get good quality product and then trained to sell VCO through online shop such as Facebook, Instagram, Tokopedia, etc. This activity helps add more insight in terms of processing and marketing, in which participants increase their knowledge and competence to form the basis for entrepreneurship of coconut processed products.
