Abstract

Study aims to determine the optimum dose of cancer therapy Boron Neutron Cancer Therapy (BNCT) in skin cancer using SHIELD-HIT 12A program. The steps taken are to define the geometry and components of the skin as the object being studied and boron-10 as the source of radiation used. The output obtained from SHIELD-HIT 12A is in the form of radiation length in each skin forming constituent of skin. Medium 1 is a bone tissue with a radiation length of 10.416 cm; medium 2 is muscle tissue with radiation length 20.089 cm; medium 3 is skin tissue with radiation length 34.25 cm and medium 4 is cancer tissue with radiation length 9.639 cm. In this study the dose of BNCT has not been detected by the SHIELD-HIT 12A program.

Abstract

Boron Neutron Capture Therapy (BNCT) is a radiotherapy method that utilizes the interaction of boron-10 and thermal neutrons that produce lithium particles and alpha particles to kill cancer cells. Before treatment is done to humans, clinical and non-clinical testing is carried out. Non-clinical testing included In Vivo and In Vitro tests. This In Vivo and In Vitro test involves the Kartini reactor as a source and guarantees that the workers and the environment are safe when the reactor is operated. This research is aimed to analyze the neutron radiation after it has passed shielding made from paraffin with aluminum casing in an in vivo/ in vitro testing facility for BNCT. The shielding should withstand neutron radiation so that the radiation dose does not exceed the dose constraint set by PSTA-BATAN at 10 μSv/ hour. In this research, the initial shielding design was in the form of a 2D beam arrangement. For this reason, optimization of each shielding beam form into 3D can be identified. After that, the shieldings were produced and arranged in the radial piercing beamport of Kartini Reactor. The measurement results showed that neutron radiation exposure in the working area around shielding at all measurement points is 0 μSv/ hour , so the results of shielding design calculations can be validated. Neutron radiation exposure was found at 3.78 μSv/ hour and 2.36 μSv/ hour in measurements that were taken between the shielding gaps on the left and right side of the reactor's wall. These measurement results were below the prescribed dose constraint, so the working environment is safe.

Abstract

Hardness testing is used to investigate the hardness of metallic material. Hardness tests are performed frequently because it is simple, inexpensive, and other mechanical properties can be estimated from hardness such as tensile strength. The basic concept of hardness testing is pressing a hard point or round ball against surface material. The Brinell hardness is used in this experiment. The Brinell hardness number is determined fpom the diameter of indentation. This study will investigate the hardness number of aluminium shielding of wax Paraffin, three sample specimens of aluminium plate with dimensions of 5x5 cm and thickness of 3 mm. The result from the test is 30.89 BHN

Abstract

Abstract The Kartini Reactor has been operated up to 100 kilo watts. There are two types of nuclear fuel used in the Kartini Reactor, type 104 and type 204. Currently the nuclear fuel utilization license granted by BAPETEN allows 77 pieces, consisting of 73 type 104 and four type 204. Based on Kartini Reactor fuel utilization report, there are 71 pieces of nuclear fuel in the reactor core, consist of 69 type 104 and two pieces of type 204. There are four pieces of type 104 in the bulk shielding. The control rod categorizations are divided into regulating rod, shim rod and safety rod. Regarding the operation license renewal of Kartini Reactor, we conducted an assessment of various aspects related to the safety of the reactor. One of the aspects we conducted was regards to the neutronic. On the initial phase of the neutronic aspect study, a simulation was performed using the SCALE computer code. This study will only evaluate the relation between the bank of the control rod position to the effect of criticality in the Kartini Reactor. The results showed that fully up criticality has a value of 1.02173 ± 0.00018, and fully down criticality has value of 0.96026 ±0.00021. The reactor reaches criticality when the position of the control rod is at an altitude of 42.85135 cm.

Abstract

Energy and the environment are major topics of concern throughout the world nowadays. Consumption of fossil fuels is still the dominance to meet energy needs. The adverse effects of the consumption of fossil fuels on the environment and humans are priorities in determining policies. Many countries in the world have begun restructuring their energy mix and exploring the potential of new and renewable energy (NRE). Indonesia is currently in a stage of economic development where the demand for energy consumption is extremly high. The availability of fossil fuel energy is decreasing and is expected to run out in the next 42 years. In addition, environmental pollution due to the use of fossil fuels continues to increase. The application of NRE technologies and better efficiency in energy’s use could help decrease dependence on fossil fuels. One of the energy’s commodities that warrants attention is wind energy. However, the development of wind power plants in Indonesia has many barriers. The low level of trust in wind availability and the high investment costs are the main barriers to its development. The current capacity of wind energy power plants in Indonesia installed is 1.96 MW, whereas the total amount of wind energy available in Indonesia is 970MW. Wind power plants produce less carbon. This makes wind power one of the solutions to have environmentally friendly power plants. This assessment aims to increase awareness for planning for the future with the collaboration of conventional energy and NRE as clean technology to save the world from global warming.
