Abstract

Landfills generate methane gas (CH₄) as a result of the anaerobic decomposition of organic waste. This gas has the potential to serve as a renewable energy source if managed properly. This study aims to analyze the methane gas emission potential from the Sekoto landfill using the Landfill Gas Emission Model (LandGEM) and convert it into electricity and LPG. Annual waste generation data from 2021 to 2026 was used as input for the LandGEM model to estimate methane gas emissions. The modeling results indicate that peak methane production will occur in 2027, with a total of 4,247,951 m³/year. The potential electrical energy generated from this methane gas reaches 349,421,156.64 kWh per year, equivalent to 39,888.26 MWh. Additionally, the potential conversion of methane gas to LPG is estimated at 1,954,057.46 kg of LPG per year or approximately 5,353 kg per day. Utilizing methane from the Sekoto landfill as an alternative energy source not only contributes to renewable energy supply but also reduces greenhouse gas emissions that impact global warming. With a more efficient gas harvesting system and adequate processing infrastructure, methane gas can be converted into a more beneficial energy source for the community. This study confirms that optimizing landfill gas management can enhance energy sustainability while mitigating the environmental impact caused by methane emissions.

Abstract

Mercury contamination resulting from artisanal and small-scale gold mining (ASGM) poses a significant threat to both environmental and human health. This study evaluates the effectiveness of two bacterial strains, Bacillus subtilis and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, in reducing mercury (Hg²⁺) concentrations in ASGM liquid waste. Methods: Experiments were conducted over seven days under controlled conditions, with two pH settings (neutral and alkaline), by monitoring total mercury reduction and bacterial growth (CFU/mL). Result and discussion: Results indicated that B. subtilis achieved the highest mercury removal efficiency—up to 90.07% at neutral pH and 89.51% at alkaline pH. P. aeruginosa also showed high efficacy, though slightly lower in comparison. Colony counts peaked on day two but declined by day seven, likely due to nutrient depletion and mercury toxicity, particularly at neutral pH. In contrast, control reactors without bacterial inoculation showed negligible changes in Hg concentration and no significant colony development. Conclusion: Despite the decline in bacterial counts over time, both strains remained functionally active, demonstrating strong adaptability and potential as effective bioremediation agents for mercury-contaminated wastewater. These findings support the integration of bacterial bioremediation as a viable component of sustainable mercury management in ASGM sectors.

Abstract

This study aims to design and evaluate a simple prototype filtration unit for the treatment of ablution (wudhu) wastewater generated from religious facilities. Ablution water is categorized as domestic wastewater that is commonly discharged directly into the environment without prior treatment, although it still poses a potential risk of pollution. The developed prototype employs a multi-layer filter configuration consisting of palm fiber, zeolite, activated carbon, and sponge, with a total media height of 40 cm and an operational flow rate of 100 L/h. Based on design calculations, the system achieved a Hydraulic Loading Rate (HLR) of 0.4 m³/m²·h and an Empty Bed Contact Time (EBCT) of 60 minutes, indicating conservative hydraulic characteristics with a relatively long contact time. Performance testing showed that the filtration unit effectively reduced turbidity from 3 NTU to 1.2 NTU, achieving a removal efficiency of 88%, and increased the pH value from 5.6 to 7.0, thereby meeting the Class II water quality standard as regulated in Government Regulation No. 22 of 2021. These findings demonstrate that the designed filtration system is effective in improving the physical quality of ablution wastewater and has strong potential for application in public facilities such as mosques and educational institutions to support water conservation and sustainable wastewater management.

Abstract

Tebu merupakan salah satu komoditas penting dalam kehidupan, karena dimanfaatkan sebagai bahan dasar dalam pembuatan gula, tetapi pemanfaatan limbah ampas tebu di Indonesia masih belum maksimal, padahal serat ampas tebu cukup melimpah sekitar 30% dari total berat tanaman tebu. Kandungan ampas tebu terdiri dari 40%-52,7% selulosa dan 3%-24,2% lignin. Ampas tebu memiliki kandungan selulosa yang cukup tinggi, sehingga berpotensi menjadi salah satu alternatif sumber selulosa yang dapat dimanfaatkan dalam pembuatan bioplastik. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengekstraksi selulosa dari limbah ampas tebu menggunakan metode alkalisasi dengan larutan NaOH 8% selama 90 menit. Karakterisasi selulosa dilakukan dengan menggunakan uji Chesson datta. Chesson datta merupakan metode untuk menganalisis kandungan selulosa dan lignin yang terkandung dalam ampas tebu. Kandungan selulosa yang terkandung dalam ampas tebu sebesar 31,3% dan lignin sebesar 13,4%. Nilai kandungan selulosa meningkat setelah dilakukan proses delignifikasi yaitu menjadi 66,8% sedangkan lignin mengalami penurunan menjadi 4,3%.
