Abstract

The treatment of industrial wastewater has gained significant attention in recent years due to its detrimental impact on the environment and public health. This study aims to explore the effectiveness of a photocatalytic hybrid system using a Chitosan-TiO2 membrane for the degradation of batik waste. The performance of the membrane was investigated through a series of experiments, evaluating its ability to remove organic pollutants and enhance the overall treatment efficiency. The morphology, as seen through SEM images, shows a rough surface that enhances photocatalytic efficiency by providing a larger surface area for reactions. The uniform distribution of TiO2 particles within the chitosan matrix is crucial for stable and efficient pollutant degradation during photocatalysis. Furthermore, Chitosan-TiO2 membranes offer a promising solution for batik wastewater treatment. They combine the benefits of chitosan's permeability and organic substance capture with TiO2's photocatalytic capabilities. This integration allows for efficient, one-step hybrid photocatalytic filtration, reducing the use of harmful chemicals and producing environmentally friendlier byproducts. Finally, AAS analysis demonstrated that the addition of TiO2 improved heavy metal degradation in batik waste, with optimal performance observed up to a 89.78% rejection rate, beyond which TiO2 agglomeration occurred.

Abstract

In the process of flotation of copper-bearing ore, several factors such as the concentration of the collector used and the pH of the fluid used can have an impact. In this study, observations were made on the influence of collector concentration and pH on the recovery of copper ores from Papua, Indonesia. The ore samples were obtained from three different site. Preparation of samples were conducted by crushing and sieving to obtain solid particles with a size of +200 mesh. The fine particles then fed into froth flotation device. Froth flotation operations were carried out at different operating condition namely pH (pH 3, pH 6, and pH 9), xanthate concentration (1300, 2000, and 2600 ppm), and time (3, 5, 7, and 14 minutes). The froth and tailings were collected separately and dried in an oven at 60oC. The feed, froth, and tailings were then subjected to EDX analysis to determine their compositions. The results of the experiment showed that higher collector concentrations did not necessarily lead to increased copper recovery. The appropriate pH conditions, however, could optimize copper recovery. The optimum conditions obtained from this experiment were xanthate concentration of 2000 ppm, pH of 3, and the ore sample 2
