The efficiencies of raw (RK) and acid activated (0.5 M AAK) kaolinite clay minerals to remove methylene blue (MB) dyes in aqueous solution were investigated and compared. The 0.5 M AAK was prepared by treatment of RK in dilute 0.5 M HCl aqueous solution under reflux. Kaolinite adsorbents were characterized and their MB removal performances were evaluated via the batch method. MB desorption from spent kaolinites was investigated at pH 4 to 8. The MB removal was increased with increasing initial dye concentration, agitation speed and adsorbent dosage in 60 min reaction time at pH 6. Both kaolinites showed high MB removal (up to 97%). The Freundlich model has the best-fit equilibrium adsorption isotherm model for RK and 0.5 M AAK. The kinetic data for both adsorbents showed strong agreement with the pseudo second order kinetic model (r2 > 0.98). Nevertheless, the spent RK adsorbent demonstrated a significant higher MB retention than 0.5 M AAK in desorption experiments. Kaolinite clays have great potential as cost-effective materials for dyes removal in wastewater treatment.

In this study, the Box-Behnken Design (BBD) was employed to investigate the effects of wood particle size, pyrolysis temperature, and pyrolysis time on the production of wood vinegar from Indonesia “bengkirai” wood (Shorea laevis Ridl). Characterization of wood vinegar was conducted by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Three variable designs consisting of wood particle size (2.00, 2.38, and 3.36 mm), pyrolysis temperature (350, 400, and 450 °C), and pyrolysis time (105, 120, and 135 min) were employed in a BBD response surface methodology (RSM-BBD). RSM-BBD results suggested that maximum wood vinegar yield would be obtained with a wood particle size of 3.85 mm, pyrolysis temperature of 400 °C, and pyrolysis time of 93 min. In addition, the mathematical model indicated the maximum wood vinegar yield would be 30.31%. The main compounds in wood vinegar were acetic acid, 1-hydroxy-2-propanone, furfural, 2,3-pentanedione, phenol, 2-methoxy phenol, 2-methoxy-4-methyl phenol, 2,6-dimethoxy phenol, and 1,2,4-trimethoxybenzene.

Publisher : Universitas Gadjah Mada

Structure-based virtual screening protocol to identify potent acetylcholinesterase inhibitors was retrospectively validated. The protocol could be employed to examine the potential of designed compounds as novel acetylcholinesterase inhibitors. In a research project designing short peptides as acetylcholinesterase inhibitors, peptide AEYTR emerged as one of the potential inhibitors. This article presents the design of AEYTR assisted by the validated protocol and guided by literature reviews followed by molecular dynamics studies to examine the interactions of the pentapeptide in the binding pocket of the acetylcholinesterase enzyme. The molecular dynamics simulations were performed using YASARA Structure in Google Cloud Platform. The peptide AEYTR was identified in silico as a potent acetylcholinesterase inhibitor with the average free energy of binding (DG) of -19.138 kcal/mol.

In the present work, MCM-41 coated magnetic particles (Fe3O4-MCM-41) composite was synthesized and employed as an effective adsorbent in magnetic solid phase extraction (MSPE) of three selected organophosphorus pesticides (OPPs) namely chlorpyrifos, diazinon and parathion methyl from grape and strawberry samples prior to high performance liquid chromatography with UV detection (HPLC-UV). The synthesized sorbent was physicochemically and morphologically characterized via Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and N2 adsorption analysis. The main parameters on the extraction efficiency of selected OPPs, including extraction time, desorption solvent, desorption time, and sorbent dosage, were thoroughly optimized. Compared to MCM-41 sorbent, the newly synthesized Fe3O4-MCM-41 adsorbent shows a linear response (0.1-5.00 mg L–1) with good determination coefficients ranging from 0.9900 to 0.9980, low limits detection (LODs), 0.02-0.15 mg L–1 and low limit quantifications (LOQs), 0.06-0.40 mg L–1. The precision as relative standard deviation (%RSD) of the proposed MSPE method was studied at low and high concentration (0.1-5.0 mg L–1) based on intra-day (1.0 to 6.0%, n = 3) and inter-day (1.0 to 7.0%, n = 3), respectively. Fruit matrices were used to assess the field applicability of the sorbents. Comparatively, Fe3O4-MCM-41 achieved excellent percent recovery (85–120%) compared to the MCM-41 (70–110%). The result revealed that the Fe3O4-MCM-41 composite was efficient sorbent with good capability for the preconcentration of selected OPPs from fruit samples.

In this study, ZnO nanoparticles were synthesized using a sol-gel method for oil upgrading and wax deposition control. The synthesized ZnO nanoparticles were used to measure viscosity and wax deposition in the heavy crude oil and to investigate the effectiveness of the nanoparticles in the reduction of viscosity and wax deposition control of the heavy crude oil. This study investigated the effect of calcination temperature on ZnO nanoparticles during synthesis towards viscosity reduction and wax deposition control. ZnO nanoparticles were calcined at different temperatures ranging from 300 to 900 °C. The calcined ZnO nanoparticles were characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), Field Emission Scanning Electron microscope (FESEM), and Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) for its structure, size, shape, and morphology. The characterization results showed a hexagonal wurtzite structure of ZnO nanoparticles. The physical properties and rheology of heavy crude oil were characterized by using Electronic Rheometer and cold finger method to analyze the viscosity, shear rate, and wax deposition of the heavy crude oil for performance study. Decreased in crystallite size from 15.59 to 12.84 nm was observed with increasing calcination temperature from 300 to 400 °C, and a further increase of calcination temperature from 400 to 900 °C, the crystallite size increased from 12.84 to 41.58 nm. The degree viscosity reduction (DVR %) of heavy crude oil was observed to increase by 41.7%, with decreasing ZnO nanoparticles size from 30.11 nm to 12.84 nm. The optimum calcination temperature was 400 °C. Wax deposition decreases by 32.40% after the addition of ZnO nanoparticles into heavy crude oil.

The previous research showed that the fraction C from active extract of Garcinia latissima Miq. fruit was active against Bacillus subtilis. This study aims to isolate and identify the active compound as an antibacterial agent from the fraction C. Fraction C was purified by recrystallization using chloroform and n-hexane solvents and then isolated using preparative-thin layer chromatography-silica gel 60 GF254 to give a yellow compound. The antibacterial activity was determined using microdilution with thiazolyl blue tetrazolium bromide indicator against B. subtilis American Type Culture Collection 6633. The isolate was identified using UV-Vis, IR, MS, Proton Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (1H-NMR) and carbon NMR (13C-NMR), and NMR-2D techniques including HMQC and HMBC. Based on the spectroscopic analysis and literature review, the compound was identified as 6-deoxyjacareubin, which is a new compound from Garcinia latissima Miq. The 6-deoxyjacareubin showed antibacterial activity with MIC value of 156.25 ppm and was categorized as a weak antibacterial agent because the MIC value was more than 100 ppm. According to in silico approach to the docking study, 6-deoxyjacareubin showed similar hydrophobic interaction with several amino acid residues including C2565, C2589, G2484, U2590, and U5588 between a native ligand.

The zircon powder from Zircon Minerals Malaysia is a pure premium grade zircon sand milled 1.5 µm that contain ZrSiO4, ZrO2, HfO2, SiO2, Al2O3, TiO2, and Fe2O3. The monoclinic zirconia powders were synthesized from the zircon sand of Zircon Minerals Malaysia, by caustic fusion method at calcination temperatures between 500 °C to 800 °C. The as-synthesized zirconia was characterized through X-Ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), thermogravimetric and differential thermal analysis (TG-DTA), and X-Ray fluorescence (XRF) techniques. The XRD results show two monoclinic phases of microcrystalline zirconia. Zirconia that was calcined at 600 °C obtained the highest value of ZrO2, which was 54.48%; followed by zirconia calcined at 700 °C, 800 °C, and 500 °C, which obtained the ZrO2 values of 53.58%, 52.41%, and 51.53%, respectively, based on the XRF analysis. As-synthesized zirconia showed monoclinic phases where the surface areas were 0.0635 m2/g, 0.135 m2/g, 0.0268 m2/g, and 0.0288 m2/g, for zirconia calcined at temperatures of 500 °C, 600 °C, 700 °C, and 800 °C, respectively. The surface structure of the powder that had been calcined at 600 C showed similarities with the commercial zirconia. The similarities of the synthesized zirconia and commercial zirconia showed that the zirconia powder could be synthesized using zircon sand by caustic fusion method, even though the content of zirconia was lower compared to that of the commercial zirconia powder.

This study aims to prepare dealuminated metakaolinite which has a high surface area by using NH4OH as an activator. The natural kaolinite sample was treated at 600 °C for 6 h in order to obtain metakaolinite. A dealuminated metakaolinite was then prepared by the repeated activation method using concentrated ammonia (5 M NH4OH) at room temperature. Depending on the nature of each type of material, natural kaolinite, NH4OH treated kaolinite, metakaolinite and NH4OH treated metakaolinite were characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy-energy dispersive spectroscopy (SEM-EDS), and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET-N2) measurements. XRD and FTIR results confirmed that structural transformation from kaolinite to metakaolinite had occurred. According to SEM-EDS data, the activation of metakaolinite by NH4OH allowed the dealumination of metakaolinite. The increase in the Si/Al ratio was almost twice as high as in kaolinite. BET-N2 analysis showed that the specific surface area and the total pore volume increased significantly after activation. Its adsorption properties were tested against bixin. Bixin adsorption on dealuminated metakaolinite followed pseudo-second order kinetic where k2 = 0.20 g/mg min. The adsorption isotherm followed the Langmuir model where qm = 0.72 mg/g.

Thermal and electrical conductivity studies of Cyclic Natural Rubber nanocomposite with graphene 1 and 2 phr (G1 and G2) and modified 1 and 2 graphenes (mG1 and mG2) have been carried out. Graphene was activated with cetrimonium bromide (CTAB), was isolated from Sawahlunto coal (Bb) by the Hummer modification method. The nanocomposite was fabricated through the mixing solution method using Xylena as a solvent. The characterizations of nanocomposites which were performed by Fourier Transform Infrared (FT-IR) and X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) reveals an interaction between graphene, CTAB and the CNR matrix. Furthermore, Scanning Electron Magnetic (SEM) and Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) indicate the particle size to be smaller and particle distribution is more in accordance with CTAB. Thermal analysis of nanocomposites using Differential Scanning Calorimeter (DSC) showed an increase in thermal conductivity from 3.0084 W/mK to 3.5569 W/mK. Analysis of electrical conductivity using the Two-Point Probe shows 2 phr mG (mG2) capable of increasing electrical conductivity from 0.1170 × 10–4 S/cm to 0.2994 × 10-4 S/cm.
