Abstract

Air pollution in major cities in many countries has reaching a very concerning level. One of thecause of air pollution is pollution caused by smoke aerosol. Smoke aerosols that has an averageparticle diameter of 0.1 μm – 1 μm can be found in cigarette smoke, diesel vehicle fume, industrialfume and many else. This condition will be worsen by the increase in the number of smokers, motorvehicles and industry. Therefore we need to pursue the control method for that kind of air pollution.In the literature study, it’s found that the cleaning method of air fi ltration for fi ne particle withdimension of 0.01 – 5 μm are by using thermal precipitator. Thermal precipitator is one method ofair fi ltration based on thermophoretic force, which is if there is a temperature difference betweentwo plates, it will cause the force that will push the particles between the two plates toward theplate that has lower temperature. In the effort to help control and reduce the air pollution, for thisstudy we made a thermal precipitator test equipment to deposit the particles in the air with the useof thermophoretic force. That force is the force applied to the particles that suspended in the fl uidfl ow. The temperature difference between two plates is set at ΔT=5, 10, 15, and 20oC. This studyutilized gas sensors to observe the characterization of thermal precipitator. From the experimentand analysis can be concluded that thermal precipitator can be applied as a smoke collector.

Abstract

Biodiesel from Jatropha oil has several advantages compared to which from Palm oil, among others better cold flow properties (lower cloud point, pour point and CFPP). However, Jatropha biodiesel has an oxidation stability that is too low (2-3 hours) so that its application in the diesel engine is not acceptable. This paper reports the effect of addition of Palm bodiesel and commercial anti-oxidant on the oxidation stability of Jatropha biodiesel. The objective of this research is to find the formulation for Jatropha biodiesel which will meet the oxidation stability determined by World Wide Fuel Charter 2009 (WWFC) of min.10 hours. The required addition of BHT into Jatropha biodiesel is more than 10000 ppm to meet the WWFC specification. The addition of BHT will decrease to less than 10000 ppm if the Jatropha biodiesel was blended with Palm biodiesel as much as 60% v/v. Addition of antioxidant should be limited to a minimum value because there are also concerns about the negative effects of antioxidants on the engine components.

Abstract

Poor lubrication may cause wear on the surface moving parts of engine components such as bearings due to the metal-to-metal contact. Engine components utilized on the road-test of gasoline engine’s lubricating oil API SL showed wear and tear on some parts of them. The sum of wear occurred during the road test were varied. Therefore, an analysis of wear quantity of engine’s components was a necessity in order to get information about lubrication condition on engine. Analysis of wear was conducted by components’ rating based on the standard specifications set out for performance level of lubricant oil API SL and ILSAC GF-3 (SNI 06-7069-2005). Analysis based on Seq. IIIF showed that average value of the piston skirt varnish is 10, low temperature viscosity is 4673 cP, and cam wear lifter is 0.002 mm. It was also showed that the minimum kinematics viscosity increase was managed to be stay-in-grade. Analysis based on Seq. IVA showed that the average value of cam wear is 0.0015 mm. Analysis based on Seq. VII showed that the value of bearing weight loss was 0.010 g and there was no deposit at high temperatures. Shear stability analysis based on Seq. VIII showed that the viscosity of lubricant oil is still in the range of allowed values.
