Abstract

The pretreatment process is important in treating lignocellulosic-rich biomass such as sugarcane bagasse. The lignocellulosic structure is strong, and the proportion of crystals is high, complicating the fermentation process. Still, it needs to be converted to a more amorphous structure for easy access to fermenting enzymes. The pretreatment process is carried out with alkaline solvents and microwaves in this study. The process begins by standardizing the size of the bagasse powder used. Sugarcane bagasse powder and NaOH alkaline solvent were mixed in a three-necked round-bottom flask. The reactor used in this study was a modified domestic microwave equipped with a temperature controller and condenser. The results showed that this modification was significant to reduce the weight of the residual solid product compared to the initial weight of the raw material. Process variables such as reaction time and solvent concentration significantly affect the cellulose content of solid products. However, hemicellulose content showed different results. The results of the XRD analysis showed that the crystallization index of the effect decreased with increasing pretreatment time. Pretreatment with microwaves and alkaline solvents was successful with satisfactory structural changes in the cellulosic solid.

Abstract

Cane juice is the main raw material in sugar factories. The processing of cane juice to produce the highest quality sugar must be through the proper evaporation process. If the evaporation temperature is too high, the cane juice can be damaged and this will affect the quality of sugar produced. The type of evaporator that is often used to reduce water content in food is falling film evaporator. This study obtained to determine the effect of the flow rate of cane juiceon the temperature distribution at the interface and wall. This research was conducted using Matlab Software and the Runge-Kutta Method. The research variables used were the flow rate of 154, 243, and 301 l/hr and the air flow rate of 4, 8 and 10 m3/hr. The results showed that the smaller flow rate of the solution, the smaller temperature of the solution at the interface with the same position. The temperature distribution on the wall has increased at the beginning of evaporator operation, but then decreased due to evaporation.

Abstract

Rice bran oil as an alternative edible oil is promising to be developed. However, the presence of lipaze enzym which hydrolyze actively trigliceride into free fatty acid results rice bran quality can not be controlled and tend to degrade. Stabilization proccesswas needed to overcome this isue. Stabilization with microwave heating has been carried out to study the effect of stabilization toward the quality of rice bran oil. The results showed that the highest percentage of oil mass 7.67% was obtained at mediumpower (power 2), stabilization time 1 minute and the extraction waiting time for 0 week. Meanwhile, the levels of free fatty acids tended to be constant when the proccess was carried out at power 3 (high power) for all stabilization times. Microwave heating was effective enough to reduce the lipase enzyme in rice bran so as free fatty acid content did not increase significantly. Keywords: Microwave Heating, Rice Bran Oil, Stabilization.

Abstract

The biggest problem currently in Indonesia is accumulated and uncontrolled of garbage amount everywhere, especially organic waste. There are also more methods to utilize waste. One of waste utilization is Biogas. Organic content in organic waste can be used as a substart source for anaerobic bacteria. Initial treatment of organic waste in this study used as a variable, namely chopped and blended. This initial treatment was done before it was mixed with other materials, ie cattle dung and water. 200% water was added to the reactor along with other variables. Temperature, pH and biogas volume were observed for 30 days. Initial treatment factor of organic waste as biogas production substrat showed blend treatment with decay, it had higher biogas production than others. Biogas volume was resulted 189.99 cm3 with a composition ratio of 50% cattle dung and 50% organic waste.Keywords: Biogas, Livestock Manure, Organic Waste.

Abstract

Biogas is one solution to the use organic waste (livestock manure and vegetables). The aim of the research was to find out the effectiveness of livestock manure and fermentation of vegetable waste into biogas. This research was carried out using fermented vegetable waste for 10-12 days, then it was chopped and blended. The vegetable waste is then mixed with cow dung and water according to the determined variables. The mixture was put into a brown glass bottle and the bottle mouth was closed with a balloon and deposited for 8 days. Furthermore, the CO2 gas produced wasreleased and start to deposite again for 20-30 days. Trapped methane gas obtained from in the balloon was then stored to measure the produced volume and pH and also the methane gas. The results obtained from the research that is were the best pH obtained from vegetable waste blender fermentation treatment (% water100 and the percentage ofKS: SO was 75:25) was 7 and the largest volume was obtained from fermented chopped vegetable waste treatment (water% 300 and percentage KS: SO was 100: 0) of 78.73 cm3. Keywords: Biogas, Fermentation of Vegetable Waste, Cow Manure.
