Abstract

Tujuan penelitian ini adalah menentukan persamaan empiris dari bilangan tak berdimensi untuk memprediksikan ukuran mikrokapsul oleoresin jahe merah. Metode enkapsulasi yang digunakan adalah crosslink emulsi dengan kitosan sebagai penyalut dan glutaraldehyde saturated toluene (GST) sebagai agen crosslink. Oleoresin jahe merah dan kitosan dengan konsentrasi 1, 2, 3 dan 4% (w/v) diaduk dengan kecepatan 10.000 rpm untuk membentuk emulsi, kemudian dimasukan dalam minyak jagung dan diaduk kembali untuk membentuk emulsi kedua. Sebanyak 10 mL glutaraldehyde saturated toluene (GST) sebagai agen crosslink ditambahkan secara bertahap. Setelah itu, ditambahkan larutan glutaraldehida 25% dan terus diaduk selama 2 jam. Mikrokapsul dipisahkan dan dicuci dengan petroleum eter dan heksan, kemudian dikeringkan dalam oven dengan suhu 70 °C. Dengan cara yang sama digunakan untuk membuat mikrokapsul pada kecepatan pengadukan 5.000, 8.000 dan 15.000 rpm. Ukuran diameter mikrokapsul dianalisis menggunakan mikroskop digital. Persamaan empiris dari bilangan tak berdimensi Reynolds (Re) dan Ohnesorge (Oh) dibuat untuk memprediksikan diameter mikrokapsul. Data dari variabel perubahan konsentrasi kitosan dan kecepatan pengadukan dapat menghasilkan persamaan empiris dari bilangan Reynolds (Re) dan Ohnesorge (Oh). Konstanta yang dihasilkan adalah  = 422,06,  = 0,37 dan  = -0,18. Berdasarkan perbandingan antara data diameter penelitian dan hasil perhitungan didapat % kesalahan sebesar 8,05% untuk pengaruh konsentrasi kitosan dan 7,52% untuk pengaruh kecepatan pengadukan.A Simple Empirical Equation for Predicting Particle Size from Encapsulation of Red Ginger Oleoresin. This study aims to determine the empirical equations of the dimensionless number to predict the diameter size of red ginger oleoresin microcapsules. The encapsulation method used is crosslinking emulsion with chitosan as coating and glutaraldehyde saturated toluene (GST) as a crosslinking agent. Red ginger oleoresin and chitosan with concentrations of 1, 2, 3 and 4% (w/v) were stirred at 10,000 rpm to form emulsions, and then added to the corn oil and stirred again to form a second emulsion. The 10 mL of glutaraldehyde saturated toluene (GST) as a crosslinking agent was added gradually. After that, a 25% glutaraldehyde solution was added and stirred for 2 hour. Microcapsules were separated and washed with petroleum ether and hexane, then dried in an oven at a temperature 70 °C. The same step, the microcapsules were made at stirring speed of 5,000; 8,000; and 15,000 rpm. The size of the microcapsule diameter was analyzed using a digital microscope. The empirical equations of the dimensionless numbers Reynolds (Re) and Ohnesorge (Oh) are made to predict the microcapsule diameter. The data from the chitosan concentration change and stirring speeds could produce the empirical equations of the Reynolds and Ohnesorge numbers. The resulting constants were  = 422.06,  = 0.37 dan  = -0.18. By comparing the data diameter of the research and calculation results obtained % error of 8.05% for the influence of chitosan concentration and 7.52% for the effect of stirring speed.

Abstract

Pada penelitian ini metode deteksi kurkumin dan bisdemetoksikurkumin dikembangkan dengan teknik voltammetri siklik menggunakan elektrode boron-doped diamond. Voltammogram siklik kurkumin dan bisdemetoksikurkumin dalam larutan elektrolit tetrabutilamonium heksafluorofosfat (TBAPF6)-asetonitril masing-masing menunjukkan 2 puncak oksidasi, yaitu pada potensial +0,4 V dan +1,9 V vs. Ag/AgCl untuk kurkumin, serta +0,6 V dan +2,0 V vs. Ag/AgCl untuk bisdemetoksikurkumin. Hubungan linear diperoleh antara konsentrasi kurkumin maupun bisdemetoksikurkumin dengan arus puncak oksidasinya. Hubungan linear  yang diperoleh adalah I(µA) = 8619,9C (M) + 0,7285 (R2=0,9995) dan I(µA) = 14658C (M) + 16,388 (R2=0,9299) berturut-turut untuk kurkumin puncak pertama dan kedua, serta I(µA) = 7953,2C (M) + 5,3977 (R2=0,9871) dan I(µA) = 5807,7 C (M) + 7,7616 (R2=0,9981) untuk bisdemetoksikurkumin puncak pertama dan kedua. Aplikasi metode yang dikembangkan terhadap sampel buatan yang mengandung campuran kurkumin dan bisdemetoksikurkumin menghasilkan 3 puncak oksidasi pada potensial +0,3 V, +1,2 V, dan +2,0 V vs Ag/AgCl mengindikasikan terjadinya tumpang tindih antara puncak kurkumin dan BDMC serta pergeseran puncak oksidasi. Nilai presisi pengukuran dengan metode yang dikembangkan ialah 15,86 dan 15,15% untuk kurkumin, serta 9,85 dan 31,47% untuk bisdemetoksikurkumin. Sementara nilai akurasi pengukuran ialah sebesar 96,69 dan 125,36% untuk kurkumin, serta 97,95 dan 127,54% untuk bisdemetoksikurkumin masing-masing berdasarkan puncak 1 dan 2. Hasil yang diperoleh menunjukkan performa analitik metode yang dikembangkan masih perlu ditingkatkan sebelum diaplikasikan untuk analisis kuantitatif.Detection of Curcumin and Bisdemetoxycurcumin by Voltammetric Technique using a Boron-Doped Diamond Electrode.  This study develops a cyclic voltammetry method for simultaneous detection of curcuminoid by using boron-doped diamond electrode. Curcumin and bisdemethoxycurcumin (BDMC) in tetrabutylammonium hexafluorophosphate (TBAPF6)-acetonitrile as electrolyte solution showed two oxidation peaks at +0.4 V and +1.9 V for curcumin, while those for BDMC appeared at +0.6 V and +2.0 V. Reduction peaks of both standards were not observed. In the optimum conditions, this method showed linear correlation between concentration of curcumin and BDMC with it’s oxidation peak current. The equations of I(µA) = 8619.9(C) (M) + 0.7285 (R2=0,9995) and I(µA) = 14658(C) (M) + 16.388 (R2=0.9299) were obtained for curcumin, I(µA) = 7953.2(C) (M) + 5.3977 (R2=0,9871) and I(µA) = 5807.7(C) (M) + 7.7616 (R2=0.9981) for BDMC. Meanwhile, the measurement of the artificial samples containing a mixture of curcumin and BDMC showed three oxidation peaks at +0.3 V, +1.2 V, and +2.0 V. This result indicated an overlapping between curcumin and BDMC peaks and peak shifting. Precision of the developed method was expressed as percent RSD, giving value of 15.86 and 15.15% for curcumin, and 9.85 and 31.47% for BDMC. The accuracy was 96.69 and 125.36% for curcumin, meanwhile for BDMC was 97.95 and 127.54% for peak 1 and 2. The result indicated that the method required further improvement before applied for quantitative analysis.

Abstract

Rice husk is the most abundant agricultural waste in Indonesia. It can be used as a precursor for multifunctional materials such as silica-lignin composite for adsorbents. Silica-lignin can reduce heavy metal content in an industrial waste, such as the content of Cr(VI). This study aims to isolate and characterize silica-lignin composite, and determines the isotherm type of silica-lignin for hexavalent chromium adsorption. The isolation from rice husk used an alkali extraction method. Confirmation of typical functional groups in the silica-lignin composite was characterized by FTIR, while the morphology was characterized by SEM, respectively. The results reveal that the silica-lignin isolation was successfully performed.  FTIR spectra indicate a typical wavenumber of the silica-lignin.  The SEM image of the composite showed homogeneous morphology. The silica-lignin adsorption process on hexavalent chromium followed a Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) isotherm type indicated by multilayer adsorption with a surface area of 948.8421 mg. g-1.

Abstract

A combination of adsorption and photoelectrodegradation system was performed to reduce the concentration of Rhodamine B dye in water. The adsorption was conducted using silica and alumina activated by acid and base under various predetermined pH of Rhodamine B. The photoelectrodegradation process was performed using Ti/TiO2 electrode as a cathode and Ti/TiO2-NiO as an anode. TiO2 was synthesized from titanium tetra-isopropoxide precursor (TTiP) by sol-gel method. TiO2-NiO composite was synthesized with the same precursor with the addition of Ni(NO3)2.6H2O. The result shows that the activation changes the amount of OH total in the adsorbent. The acid-activated adsorbent showed an optimum adsorption activity when Rhodamine B was in base condition caused by zwitter ionic structure. It reversely occured to base-activated adsorbent where an optimum absorption activity reached at acid condition. The application of base-activated silica in adsorption and photoelectrodegradation combination system decreased the concentration of Rhodamine B dye up to 98.79% using photoanode Ti/TiO2-NiO under pH 2 at bias potential 6 V.

Abstract

Penelitian terkait pengaruh komposisi α-keratin/alginat terhadap kapasitas adsorpsi logam berat besi (Fe) telah dilakukan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui karakter dan optimasi adsorpsi dari bioadsroben komposit α-keratin/alginat terhadap daya serap logam berat Fe dalam larutan air. Proses preparasi bioadsorben α-keratin/alginat dilakukan dengan metode enkapsulasi pada larutan CaCl2 2% (b/v). Karakterisasi bioadsorben dilakukan menggunakan Fourier Transform Infra-Red (FTIR), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) dan proses adsorbsi dilakukan dengan metode batch. Hasil karakterisasi IR pada komposit α-keratin/alginat menunjukkan terdapatnya serapan pada bilangan gelombang 1140-820,75 cm-1 yang merupakan reduksi gugus mannuronate dari alginat. Hal ini menunjukan bahwa alginat telah terikat secara kimia dengan α-keratin. Adsorpsi logam Fe (3 ppm) dalam larutan dilakukan dengan variasi komposisi α-keratin:alginat secara berturut-turut sebagai berikut 1:1; 1:2; 1:3; 2:1 dan 3:1 (b/b). Hasil pengukuran menggunakan Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (AAS) dengan metode kurva kalibrasi standar menunjukkan komposisi optimum penyerapan logam Fe (3 ppm) adalah 1:2 dengan kapasitas adsorpsi sebesar 205,64 mg/g. Hasil karakterisasi SEM pada komposit α-keratin:alginat komposisi 1:2 (b/b) yang memberikan kemampuan adsorpsi yang terbesar menunjukkan bahwa permukaan rambut manusia tidak tertutup secara menyeluruh sehingga gugus aktif dan celah-celah kecil pada komposit dapat berperan dalam proses adsorpsi logam berat besi (Fe).The Effect of α-Keratin/Alginate Bioadsorbent Composition on the Adsorption Capacity of Heavy Metal of Iron (Fe). A study of the influence of α-keratin-alginate composition on the heavy metal adsorption of Fe has been performed. The research aims to determinate the character and adsorption optimation of α-keratin/alginate composite for Fe adsorption in aqueous solution. The preparation α-keratin/alginate composite was conducted by encapsulation method in CaCl2 2% solution. The characterization of bioadsorbent was performed by Fourier Transform Infra-Red (FTIR), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and adsorption process was conducted by batch method. The FTIR result on α-keratin/alginate shows that adsorption at wavenumber of 1140-820.75 cm-1 which indicates the reduction of mannuronate group from alginate. This suggests that alginate was chemically bound with α-keratin. The adsorption of Fe (3 ppm) in the solution was carried out with variation of composition α-keratin:alginate of 1:1; 1:2; 1:3; 2:1; and 3:1 (w/w). The measurement using AAS (atomic absorption spectroscopy) with standar calibration curve method showed that optimum composition of Fe (3 ppm) adsorption was 1:2 (w/w) with adsorption capacity of 205.64 mg/g.  The SEM result on α-keratin/alginate 1:2 (w/w) which had the greatest adsorption capability shows that the surface of human hair was not completely closed thus the active groups and pores can play a role in the process of adsorption of heavy metal iron (Fe).
