Abstract

Tembung Village, Percut Sei Tuan District, Deli Serdang Regency, North Sumatra Province, is a densely populated area. There are more than 200 laundry businesses. The potential for laundry business actors to produce softener and aromatherapy fabric softener has been hit very hard. However, the villagers, especially laundry business actors, do not know how to make these products. Making aromatherapy softeners independent will provide added value to the laundry business actors and villagers regarding economic costs and the transfer of knowledge of technology (science and technology commercialization). Therefore, the University of North Sumatra community service team wants to commercialize science and technology in making aroma softening therapy. The method used in this activity is the selection of partner locations, training, monitoring, and evaluation. The results of the questionnaire gave a value of 95% Participants were interested in training to produce aromatherapy softeners independently and took the initiative to make the results of this training a new opportunity.

Abstract

Fertilizer is the main needed for farmers to support agricultural products. However, the availability of chemical fertilizers in the market was once scarce due to its limited availability. To avoid dependence on the need for chemical fertilizers is to look for other alternatives as plant fertilizers. One alternative to chemical fertilizers is compost produced from organic waste. Compost fertilizer is available in several forms, namely solid fertilizer and liquid fertilizer. In this community service, training was conducted on making a simple composter to make organic fertilizer. The composter produced in this activity is very easy to do and made by partners because it comes from materials that are easily obtained around partners. The advantage of this composter is that it can produce both solid fertilizer and liquid fertilizer at the same time, but the concern of the service team is a liquid fertilizer because its use is more practical and easier for plants to absorb. During the training process, the partners were very enthusiastic about participating in the activity and asking questions related to composting. In this composter, the waste used is organic waste resulting from household waste which is placed at the top of the composter. Then the composter is closed and allowed to ferment by microorganisms. The results of organic liquid fertilizer can be accommodated at the bottom of the composter and then applied to plants in a ratio of 1:10.

Abstract

Mesoporous silica material has been synthesized using tetraethylorthosilicate (TEOS) as a source of silica, oleic acid as a template, and 3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane (APMS) as co-structure directing agents (CSDA). The synthesis of silica material was made with a variation in the mole ratio of TEOS: Oleic acid with a ratio of 1: 0.2; 1: 0.3; 1: 0.5; 1: 0.6; 1: 0.7; 1: 0.9, and 1: 1. A mixture between TEOS and APMS was added to a mixture of oleic acid, HCl 0.1N and demineralized water then stirred at room temperature for 2 hours. Then aging, the mix at 80oC for 48 hours until solids are formed. Product separation was used in the centrifugation method. The resulting solid was dried at 50oC, and to remove the template, calcined at 550oC for 6 hours. The product of XRD analysis has a wider diffraction peak that indicates an amorphous material. The FT-IR spectrum shows the Si-OH and Si-O-Si groups which area characteristic of silica material. The product of SEM analysis offers the presence of sheets and plates of particle forms with different sizes. Adsorption desorption isotherm (BET) shows an isotherm type IV curve, and dominant pore sizes are 1.945 and 4.588 nm.
