Abstract

The primary polluter of the environment is liquid waste. Silica is one substance that can be utilized to minimize water pollution. Silica can be produced from agricultural biomass waste, such as rice husk ash. This study investigated the preparation of rice husk ash and the optimal synthesis method for producing bio-silica. A literature review of studies on rice husk ash, heavy metals, and adsorbents was conducted. The findings indicated that boiling rice husk at 800°C and washing with HCl produced high-purity silica. XRD (X-ray diffraction), FT-IR (Fourier transform infrared) spectrophotometers, and ED-XRF (Energy Dispersive X-ray fluorescence) were employed to characterize the rice husk ash. The precipitation, sol-gel, acidification, and hydrothermal methods were compared for bio-silica synthesis. The synthesized bio-silica can be used as a heavy metal absorbent for various metal ions, including Pb2+, Zn2+, Mn2+, Cu2+, As3+, As5+, and Cd2+.

Abstract

Albumin plays important roles in the health of the body, such as stabilizing intravascular fluid pressure, facilitating molecular transport, and facilitating fluid movement in the body. The high cost of albumin, the limited availability of albumin sources, and the uncertainty surrounding its halal status underscore the imperative for this research. The objective of this study was to identify alternative sources of albumin, with a focus on exploring non-fish sources. Patin fish, a species endemic to Central Kalimantan, is a promising alternative due to its abundance and cost-effectiveness. The albumin content of steamed and dipped patin fish at 10, 15, 20, and 25 minutes was determined using the biuret method. The findings indicated that steaming yielded higher albumin content than dipping, with values of 4.41% and 3.88%, respectively. The optimal steaming duration was determined to be 15 minutes, while the optimal dipping duration was 20 minutes. These findings suggest that steaming may serve as a viable alternative source of fish albumin, offering a more economical option than snakehead fish.

Abstract

Ekoenzim merupakan suatu produk hasil fermentasi dari  limbah organik seperti sisa buah dan sayuran. Limbah kulit nanas menjadi salah satu sisa pangan yang berpotensi digunakan sebagai bahan baku produk ekoenzim. Oleh karena itu, dilakukan penelitian untuk membuat dan mengidentifikasi potensi ekoenzim dari limbah kulit nanas melalui uji fenolik, saponin, organoleptik dan hedonik. Hasil menunjukkan 4 variasi ekoenzim memiliki potensi sebagai disinfektan berdasarkan nilai pH dan mengandung senyawa fenolik (V1-4) dengan total fenolik berturut-turut 12.9, 67.8, 115 dan 146 mg/L).  Selain itu hasil uji organoleptik dan hedonik menunjukkan bahwa 37% panelis menyukai V4 ekoenzim, (V3) 27% dan 18% untuk V1,2. Ekoenzim V4 juga mendapatkan kesukaan paling banyak pada survei kesukaan terhadap variasi ekoenzim, yaitu sebesar 31%. Sehingga V4 menjadi paling berpotensi sebagai disenfektan dan paling disukai.
