Abstract

Has done research about the system of purification of sea water into drinking water using solar energy. Utilization of solar energy as power naturally adopts the system of evaporation that occurs in a siklur water. Design and construction of tools created in the shape of a pyramid so that the absorption of thermal energy from the Sun can be maximum. Methods of work of the system is very simple, namely the souls imprisoned in the air that the pyramid would experience an increase in temperature significantly along with the searing Sun. The temperature of the hot air in the space pyramid is causing sea water which is at the bottom (floor) pyramid will evaporate and stick on the wall side of the inside of the pyramid. With the help of gravity, the water vapour will fall in the form of green ears water down the wall of the pyramid. The water will flow through the channel leading into the shelter is. This water is not already contain salt and pure water is so that it can be consumed directly. The results showed that the pyramid with size 160 cm x 160 cm 3 mm fiberglass-wall capable of producing fresh water as much as 2,100 mL. These results have been tested in the laboratory with a result salinity = 0,0 at T = 29,4 °C; TDS = 11 mg/L, 22.2 ms/cm conductivity, at T = 29.3 °C, no taste and no smell.

Abstract

Fly ash coal has been used as adsorbents in reduction of pollutant parameters in the wastewater. Fly ash coal is a coal combustion residue in the form of fine particles and an inorganic material that is being developed potential for mineral adsorbent, so as to reduce environmental pollution. Activation of fly ash coal carried by soaking in solution H2SO4 1 M, then heated at a temperature of 450oC. The method used is a separate component that is specific adsorption of the fluid to the surface of solids. This study aims to determine how the effectiveness of fly ash  coal as adsorbent in the lower levels of COD and BOD effluent Biochemistry laboratory at the State Islamic University of Alauddin Makassar. The results showed that the fly ash coal can be used to reduce the content of COD and BOD. COD and BOD levels before it is contacted with fly ash coal in a row 92 414 mg/L and 24 255 mg/L. After contacted with fly ash coal in optimum condition weighs 1.5 g and 90 rpm COD decreased to 33 005 mg/L and 32 062 mg/L, whereas at 2 g and 90 rpm BOD decreased to 17 325 mg/L and 10,395 mg/L.

Abstract

A research has been done on the dye components from the extract of red pepper (Capsiccum annum L) which is potentially used as photosensitizer. This study aims to determine the efficiency and the characteristics of the dye. The efficiency is measured on a cell made of glass ITO 100 Ω and a technical semiconductor TiO2. The pepper extract obtained from the ultrasonic maceration by methanol which then purified using a chromatography column using the ratio of 1: 4, 1: 1 and 4: 1 methanol:n-hexane. The results showed that the efficiency of the crude extract, fraction by ratio of 1:4; 1: 1 and 4: 1 are respectively 0.027%, 0.012%, 0.013% and 0.034%. Subsequently, the best efficiency fraction was characterized by using FTIR, UV-Vis and GC-MS. The wavelength of visible light obtained at 466 and 443 nm which is corresponds to the wavelength of carotene. The components indicate absorption  at 1631.78 cm-1, 3008.95 cm-1 and 2992 cm-1 that are characteristic of carotenoid whereas, that of 1739 cm-1 and 3446.79 cm-1  are carbonyl and hydroxyl group of xantofil. According to the GC-MS fragmentation pattern, the carotenoid compounds identified by mass abundace at 91 and 105.

Abstract

Environmental problems in Indonesia even in the world of growing. One of the factors causing the environmental problems with surging smoking habits in society that cause air pollution. One of the pollutants generated from cigarette smoke is a cadmium (Cd) metal. One of the efforts made in reducing pollutants in the air, especially Cd metals is phytoremediation method using plant croton (Codiaeum variegatum). This study aims to determine the ability of plants to absorb Cd metals croton. The method is performed by directly exposure at 3, 6 and 9 days. Instrument used in this study is an atomic absorption spectrophotometer (AAS). The results showed that the croton leaves absorb Cd metal with a maximum concentration of 1,065 mg/kg on days 9, so that it can be used as Cd metal phytoremediator

Abstract

The world has paid special attention to the increasing of CO2 concentrations in the atmosphere. In climate change issue, CO2 gas as part of greenhouse gases plays an important role in controlling earth surface temperature. Several CO2 gas capture techniques have been reported. However, information on the utilization of potential natural materials as CO2 adsorbents is still small. This study aims to determine the potential of chitosan zeolite composites as CO2 adsorbents. Various literature is used to analyze the properties of zeolites, chitosan and the potential of chitosan- zeolite composites as CO2 adsorbents. The results show the possibility of utilizing zeolite-chitosan composites as CO2 adsorbents.

Abstract

Since ancient times the people of Indonesia have known, and using nutritious plant as one of the efforts in the prevention of health problems. Plants belonging to the family Lauraceae is one of a group of plants commonly used by communities as traditional medicine, one of which is Avocado (Persea americana Mill.) Especially in the seeds, which contain secondary metabolites, namely polyphenols, tannins, flavonoids, triterpenoids, quinone, monoterpenoid and seskuiterpenoid and saponins. This study aims to identify the secondary metabolites contained in the seeds of avocado (Persea americana Mill.) And determine the toxicity of extracts and pure compounds using Brine Shrimp Lethality Test (BSLT). Avocado seed solvent extracted using ethyl acetate and the extract obtained was tested group and toxicity testing. The results showed that the ethyl acetate extract of avocado seeds contain phytochemicals based on test results of  secondary metabolites, the flavonoids, alkaloids and steroids. Avocado seed solvent extracted using ethyl acetate and the extract obtained was tested group and toxicity testing. The results showed that the ethyl acetate extract of avocado seeds contain phytochemicals based on test results of secondary metabolites, the flavonoids, alkaloids and steroids.
