Abstract

Silica scaling is a common problem in geothermal power generation facilities which inhibits electricity generation. In order to provide a solution to this problem, the removal of silicate ions using CPEG-TOMAC (Chitosan-polyethylene glycol–trioctyl methyl ammonium chloride) membrane adsorbent was investigated for geothermal brine from Geo Dipa Energy, Dieng. The process is dependent on contact time, pH, and the concentration of silicate. An adsorption batch study that used adsorbents for the geothermal brine of the Dieng Geo Dipa reactor 28A showed that CPEG TOMAC at pH 6 resulted in an adsorption capacity of 72.6 mg g–1. Furthermore, the adsorption of silicate ions onto the membrane followed pseudo-second-order kinetics and the Freundlich isotherm model.

Abstract

Potential energy curves (PECs) and energy profiles of atomic O attack on coronene as a model for graphene/graphitic surface and interstellar reaction surface have been computed at the unrestricted B3LYP/cc-pVDZ level of theory to elaborate on atomic O attack mechanism and chemisorption on coronene. The PECs were generated by scanning the O atom distance to the closest carbon atom on "top" and "bridge" positions in the coronene, while fully relaxed geometries in the triplet state were investigated to gain the energy profile. We found that the most favorable geometry as the final product was the chemically bound O on the "bridge" site in the singlet state with an interaction energy of –29.2 kcal/mol. We recommended a plausible mechanism of atomic O attack and chemisorption reaction on coronene or generally graphitic surface starting from the non-interacting O atom and coronene systems into the chemically bound O atom on coronene.

Abstract

Synthesis of graphene oxide (GO) material with variations in permanganate/graphite ratio has been carried out. This research purposes to study the impact of increasing oxidizing agents to graphite on the chemical structure and properties of the GO material produced. All GOs were synthesized using the improved Tour method with three variations of permanganate/graphite ratios of 5, 6, and 7. The results obtained include GO-5, GO-6, and GO-7, respectively, having a d spacing value of 0.843; 0.891; 0.894 nm by XRD analysis and 0.768; 0.756; 0.772 nm by SAED analysis. Based on the FTIR data, all GO materials bring up the peaks of oxygen-functionalized carbon absorption such as O–H, C–H sp3, C=O, C–O–C of ether and ester, and C-OH for carboxylic acids and alcohols. The oxidation levels (O/C ratio taken from EDX data) of GO-5, GO-6, and GO-7 are 0.67, 0.88, and 1.50, respectively. SEM images display the appearance of an exfoliated layer with a wrinkled and irregular surface. TEM images show thin and transparent layers. The main peaks with the highest absorbance at the wavelength around 230-240 nm, meanwhile the band gap energy produced was 3.53; 3.71; 3.55 eV for GO-5, GO-6, and GO-7, respectively.

Abstract

Dextrose Monohydrate (DMH) is a bulk chemical used in the food, beverage, and pharmaceutical industries. The caking often appeared in the crystallization of DMH. Caking is an agglomeration that can affect the product quality of DMH and is dependent on the type of impeller. This study aimed to determine the type of impeller to avoid the caking during the DMH crystallization and identify the DMH caking. The results showed that caking did not occur on the helical ribbon and anchor impeller, while caking appeared on the Rushton turbine impeller. Computational fluid mechanics (CFD) analysis showed that caking occurs due to uneven homogeneity of stirring. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) studies showed that DMH caking and non-caking had the same peak pattern. Meanwhile, optical microscope and scanning electron microscope (SEM) analysis showed that the DMH caking seen agglomerate. Density analysis showed that DMH with caking was 1.257–1.350 kg/L, while the non-caking was 0.504–0.780 kg/L. Caking phenomena during the DMH crystallization can be avoided by using a helical ribbon and anchor impeller. FTIR and XRD analysis cannot be used to identify DMH caking products; meanwhile, optical microscope, SEM, and density analyzes can be used to identify DMH caking products.

Abstract

In Indonesia, the composition of waste has gradually changed over time. To reduce expanded polystyrene (EPS) foam waste, we converted it into a heterogeneous acid catalyst, namely Polystyrene Sulfonic Acid (PSSA). The catalyst was then used in an esterification reaction to generate triacetin. In this research, the synthesis of PSSA was performed using a sulfonation reaction with silver sulfate (Ag2SO4) as the catalyst. Based on FTIR analysis, the sulfonation reaction was successful. The use of 0.5% and 1% catalysts led to a significant increase in the degree of sulfonation of PSSA, while there was a relatively constant increase when using 1.5–2.5% catalysts. The highest degree of sulfonation (78.63%) was achieved when the reaction was performed using 2% Ag2SO4 catalyst for 25 min. The PSSA with the highest degree of sulfonation was characterized using X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), SEM-EDX, and BET-BJH. This PSSA had a semi-crystalline structure with a crystallinity of 73.83%, a particle size of 1.75 nm, mesoporous pores with a radius of 16.984 Å, and a sulfur content of 15% (% mass).

Abstract

Zwitterionic polymers are material families characterized by high dipole moment and highly charged groups. Zwitterionic materials simultaneously possess an equimolar number of cationic and anionic moieties, maintaining overall electroneutrality and high hydrophilicity. Zwitterionic is categorized into three groups: phosphobetaine, carboxybetaine, and sulfobetaine that could form dense and stable hydration shells through the strong ion-dipole interaction among water molecules and zwitterions. As a result of their remarkable hydration capability, low interfacial energy, and marvelous antifouling capacities, these materials have been applied as adsorbing agents, biomedical applications, electronics, hydrogels, and antifouling for membrane separation and marine coatings. This review is focused on polysulfobetaine, which contains sulfonate as a negatively charged group, and quaternary ammonium as a positively charged group. Polysulfobetaine is the most promising one to be applied in the industry since it is commercially available and its monomers are easily prepared. The comparisons of several polysulfobetaine derivatives as antimicrobial, antifouling, surfactant and detergents, biomedical and electronic application, surface modification, and smart hydrogel are presented in this review.

Abstract

We developed a method for determining the caffeic acid in spent coffee grounds. The spent coffee ground solution was prepared by blending 3 g spent coffee grounds with 60 mL ethanol/water (40/60 v/v) for 2 h on a hot plate magnetic stirrer (60 °C, 350 rpm). The mixture was filtered and the filtrate was concentrated under vacuum (60 °C) to 5 mL. The method employed a reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography with a UV detector. We used a Phenomenex Luna column (250 × 4.6 mm; i.d., 5 µm) under isocratic elution, and the mobile phase was acetonitrile-methanol-aqueous formic acid (10:10:80 v/v), with a flow rate of 0.9 mL/min. Analysis was performed at 324 nm. The column temperature was set at 27 °C temperature. The results showed that this method was selective for quantifying the caffeic acid in spent coffee grounds with good linearity in the range of 1.31–17.07 μg/mL. The detection and quantitation limits were 0.28 and 0.84 μg/mL, respectively. The mean intraday and interday recoveries were 83.80–95.17% and 82.16–97.40%, respectively. Intraday and interday precision expressed as the relative standard deviation (RSD) were below 7.3%. There was 0.17% ± 0.006 w/w caffeic acid in the spent coffee grounds (RSD = 3.63%, n = 3).

Abstract

This study aims to examine the manufacture, characterization, and in vitro hemocompatibility of glutaraldehyde-crosslinked chitosan/carboxymethyl cellulose (CS/CMC-GA) as a hemodialysis membrane. The CS/CMC-GA membrane was prepared using the phase inversion method with 1.5% CS and 0.1% CMC. The chitosan was crosslinked with glutaraldehyde in various monomers ratios, and the membranes formed were characterized by FTIR, SEM, and TGA. Furthermore, the hydrophilicity, swelling, porosity, mechanical strength, and dialysis performance of the membranes against urea and creatinine were systematically examined, and their in-vitro hemocompatibility tests were also conducted. The results showed that the CS/CMC-GA membranes have higher hydrophilicity, swelling, porosity, mechanical strength, and better dialysis performance against urea and creatinine than chitosan without modification. In addition, the hemocompatibility test indicated that the CS/CMC-GA membranes have lower values of protein adsorption, thrombocyte attachment, hemolysis ratio, and partial thromboplastin time (PTT) than that of pristine chitosan. Based on these results, the CC/CMC-GA membranes have better hemocompatibility and the potential to be used as hemodialysis membranes.

Abstract

Dipterocarpus cornutus Dyer is commonly known as ‘keruing’. It belongs to the family of Dipterocarpaceae, an important timber family in South East Asia. D. cornutus is listed as critically endangered on IUCN Red List. Since no comprehensive study has been documented on the chemical constituents of D. cornutus, there is an urgent need to study this plant comprehensively. Phytochemical study of the stem bark of D. cornutus afforded a new flavonoid (1) and nine known compounds, which consist of flavonoids (2, 3), oligostilbenoids (4, 5, 7, 8, 9, 10), and coumarin (6). The finding of the study contributes to the chemotaxonomic differentiation in the plants of the tribe Dipterocarpae.

Abstract

The leaves of Annona muricata (sirsak), Gynura procumbens (sambung nyawa), and Typhonium flagelliforme (keladi tikus) have been used as traditional medicines in Indonesia. This study aims to determine the antioxidant capacity and putatively identified phenolics from the leaves of three medicinal plants forementioned above. We used the DPPH (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl) method for measuring radical scavenging (antioxidant assay) while the phenolics profiling was determined using UHPLC-Q-Orbitrap HRMS. The results showed that the percentage of radical scavenging activity of G. procumbens leaves extract in ethanol was higher than the other two plants. Phenolics profiling of the three medicinal plants was identified with 38 compounds belonging to flavones and flavanols hydroxycinnamic acid, and several other groups. The number of metabolites identified putatively was 12, 31, and 19 metabolites in the extracts of A. muricata, G. procumbens, and T. flagelliforme, respectively. The results confirmed the correlation between the phenolics presence and the antioxidant capacity of three plants used in this study.
