Abstract

Separation based on electrophoresis and electroosmosis (electrokinetics) of binary mixture of proteins (bovine serum albumin-hemoglobin) was studied on a membrane electrofilter. The mixture was separated using ionic polycarbonate membrane with variable studied consist of voltage, current, protein diffusivity, and electrophoresis mobility. Operation parameters were varied to investigate hemoglobin concentration, which pass semi permeable membrane. A model was been derived based on mass transfer principle for the case of unsteady state. For simplification, the model has been modified using Cramer Method with pseudo steady state approach to give the dimentionless form. A program for computer simulation has een written in C/C+ + language. This programming language was shown to have more effective computing ability. Furthermore, using a model and simulation on computer, the result indicates that initial mechanism of electrofilter can also be used to separate and to concentrate protein on their buffer solution.Keywords : electrophoresis, electroosmosis, protein, membrane, electrofilter

Abstract

The work investigates ethoxylation of glycerol mono oleate (GMO) performed in the presence of an alkaline catalyst. Glycerol mono oleate applied was derivated from Indonesian palm oil. The reaction was conducted with variation of Glycerol mono oleate : ethylene oxide ratio, temperature, and catalyst concentration. Forier Transform Infra Red (FTIR) and Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) analysis showed products with degrees of ethoxylation n=2 and n=3. FTIR analysis of products gave a new peak at 1570 cm-1 supporting that C-O-C bond was formed. New peaks were also observed in 13-C-NMR analysis of run 2 and run 3 with chemical shift of (δ) 61.3385; 61.9108; 62.5117; 63.8566; 66.0982; 72.6127 and 61.2172; 63.2393; 65.9100; 72.5201, respectively. Glycerol mono oleate ethoxylated was yielded and could be useful for a novel non-ionic polymeric surfactant.

Abstract

One of dye sensitized solar cell’s (DSSC) component is conductive glass, a transparent glass substrate covered with semiconductor oxide, usually fluorine-doped tin oxide (FTO). An economic and scalable method used to deposit the FTO film is spray pyrolysis. A research conducted by Fukano et al. (2004) showed that introducing intermittence in spray pyrolysis using batch atomizer improves the glass’ characteristics. This research aims to observe the effect of intermittence on spray pyrolysis method using nebulizer. A compressor nebulizer and hotplate were used, where the glass’ surface temperature reached 300oC. Transmittance, conductance, morphology and composition of the glasses produced were analyzed. Deposition time and intermittence were varied. Variation of time were 5; 7.5; 10; 16; and 39 minutes. Deposition time of 7.5 minutes showed the highest figure of merit (FOM) of 7.83×10-3 Ω-1. Intermittence was performed by turning the nebulizer off during deposition, with varying period and amount of intermittence. Periods of intermittence were varied for 10, 20, and 30 seconds, and amounts of intermittence were varied 1, 2, and 3 times. Variation of 3 intermittences at 20 seconds each resulted in the highest FOM of 19.29×10-3 Ω-1. DSSC’s efficiency built using produced conductive glass are 1.9×10-4 % and 5.5×10-4 %.

Abstract

Three equation of state are used to predict solubilities of solid n-pafaffins in supercritical fluids. The equations are the Redlich-Kwong, the Soave-Redlich-Kwong, and equation proposed by Hartono et.al. (2003; 2004). Both the last two equations were formed by modificating the Redlich-Kwong equqtion of state. With the binary interactions parameter, kif , equals zero, the equations proposed by Hartono et.al. is better than both the Redlich-Kwong and the Soave-Redlich-Kwong equations of state are. Upon optimization with kif as the adjustable parameter, the equation of state proposed by Hartono et.al. is closer to the experimental data than the other equqtions are. For 142 data points of 12 systems the equation proposed by Hartono et. Al. gives the average deviation of 36.6%, while the Redlich-Kwong and the Soave-Redlich-Kwong give 66.7% and 65.8%, respectively.Keywords : equation of state, solubility, supercritical

Abstract

REACTION KINETIC MODEL OF RBD PALM OIL BASED-POLYOL PRODUCTION. Polyol, a raw material of polyurethane, has successfully been produced from a renewable resource namely RBD palm oil. This polyol was made by firstly adding a peroxyacetic acid formed in situ from H2O2 and CH3COOH with H2SO4 as cataliyst into RBD palm oil to form epoxidized RBD palm oil. The epoxidized palm oil then was added to a mixture of methanol (MeOH), isopropanol (IPA), and H2SO4 for 2 hours at 60oC so that palm oil-based polyol was formed. The main equipment used in this research was a 500 mL three necked flask, equipped with a reflux condeser, thermometer, water bath and magnetic stirrer. The product was analysed using a titration method and Infra Red (IR) Spectroscopy. It was obtained that the produced palm oil-based polyol has a value of hydroxyl number of 150-209 mg KOH/g sample and a viscosity of 740.777 cP. These results are in accordance with other polyol products from other sources. The kinetic of palm oil-based kinetic was studied and the best model of the reaction rate equation was where k’ = 3.399 e-2391.,6/RT.  The unit of  k is L2 mol-2 menit-1 . The average error of the equation is 4,549%.  Polyol, bahan baku polyuretan, telah berhasil dibuat dari bahan baku terbarukan yakni polyol berbasis RBD palm olein.

Abstract

AbstractThe reaction of aluminum (Al) with an alkaline solution in producing hydrogen gas has been known for a long time. This aluminum corrosion reaction has a major obstacle in the passivation phenomenon, a formation of aluminum oxide coating on the metal surface that prevents aluminum from collapsing. Integration of electric current to the potassium hydroxide solution could result in electrolysis of water which increases the production of hydrogen. This process was carried out continuously in an ACE (aluminum corrosion and electrolysis) reactor of water. This reactor design enabled to produce hydrogen and oxygen in separating chamber. The use of 10 g of cans, 0.02 M gallium, 12 VDC, and 0.8 M KOH obtained the maximum production rate of hydrogen 162.58 ml/s with a purity of 79.83%. Keywords: aluminum corrosion; hydrogen; water electrolysis

Abstract

Dalam penelitian ini dilakukan preparasi material Fe3+/TiO2-Montmorillonit dan uji aktivitasnya sebagai katalis pada degradasi senyawa azo. Keberhasilan preparasi material dipelajari melalui karakterisasi menggunakan X-ray Diffraction, BET surface area analyzer dan Diffuse Reflectance UV-Visible. Peranan katalitik material hasil preparasi pada degradasi senyawa azo: metil jingga(MO) dan metilena biru(MB) dipelajari melalui studi kinetika reaksi dengan mekanisme mirip foto-Fenton (Photo-Fenton like mechanism). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan keberhasilan preparasi material Fe3+/TiO2-Montmorillonit serta tercapainya tujuan penggunaannya sebagai katalis untuk degradasi zat warna azo melalui mekanisme Photo-Fenton like. Simulasi terhadap data kinetika menunjukkan bahwa degradasi kedua zat warna azo dengan katalis hasil preparasi mengikuti  model kinetika Langmuir-Hinshelwood dengan nilai k dan K untuk MO berturut-turut adalah sebesar 8,83x10-7 M/detik dan 328,29 dan untuk MB sebesar 4,56x10-5 M dan 555,60. Nilai konstanta laju reaksi dan konstanta adsorpsi-desorpsi reaksi degradasi kedua zat warna menjelaskan peranan mekanisme interaksi permukaan dalam proses katalisis.

Abstract

Perangkat lunak merupakan salah satu komponen yang mutlak diperlukan dalam simulasi komputer. Permasalahan harga menjadi salah satu kendala dalam pengembangan sistem tersebut. Akan tetapi problema tersebut dapat diatasi dengan menggunakan Scilab sebagai “Open Source Software”. Scilab merupakan perangkat lunak berbasis matrik dalam menyelesaian permasalahan matematis dan visualisasi hasilnya.Penyusunan program didasarkan pada model matematis untuk bioreaktor. Validasi hasil dari Scilab dilakukan melalui komparasi hasil visualisasi dengan perangkat lunak Polymath 5 versi pendidikan. Hasil yang diperoleh dari Scilab tidak menunjukkan perbedaan yang signifikan dengan hasil yang diperoleh dengan Polymath 5. Berdasarkan hasil tersebut, perlu dikembangkan lebih lanjut simulasi komputasi dengan menggunakan Scilab.
