Abstract

Community service aims to provide tangible contributions by offering innovative solutions to various local problems. One of Indonesia’s major issues, especially in urban areas, is waste management. Every day, tons of waste are produced, but it is often disposed of without further processing. A lack of public knowledge about organic waste management is a key contributing factor. In Tadukan Raga Village, Deli Serdang Regency, Universitas Sumatera Utara implemented a community service program to educate residents on environmentally friendly organic waste processing using maggots. Maggots can decompose organic waste and produce residue that serves as fertilizer, while the larvae themselves are valuable as fish feed. Additionally, residents were trained in straw mushroom cultivation to maximize the benefits of organic waste. The program successfully increased public awareness of waste management, produced economically valuable products, and established maggot-based production facilities. This initiative not only reduced environmental impact but also supported local economic sustainability. Recognizing further potential for development, additional training continues to be conducted to strengthen the program’s outcomes.

Abstract

Membrane technology is widely used in water treatment processes. This study aims to evaluate the effect of gambir tannin, a natural additive, on the performance of hydrophobic polymer membranes made from polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) and polyethersulfone (PES). Membranes were fabricated using the casting–phase inversion method with 0% and 1% tannin concentrations. Membrane characterization included functional group analysis, permeability tests with pure water and humic acid, antifouling performance, and chemical stability. Addition of tannin introduced hydrophilic functional groups into the polymer matrix, resulting in improved membrane porosity, flux recovery ratio (FRR), and fouling resistance. The most significant finding of this study is that the incorporation of 1% gambir tannin increased the pure water flux up to 20.67 L/m²·h for PVDF membranes and 102.46 L/m²·h for PES membranes, while maintaining high antifouling properties and stable performance in acidic and alkaline environments. These results demonstrate the potential of gambir tannin as a sustainable additive for enhancing membrane performance in water purification applications.
