Abstract

In Indonesia, the waste sector is responsible for 10.59% (130,188.21 GgCO2e) of global warming emissions, one of which is from campus domestic wastewater due to the lack of wastewater treatment plants. Only 0.2% of the 6,472 campuses have treatment systems, such as Universitas Negeri Malang (UM) use a fabricated anaerobic baffled reactor (FABR) for wastewater treatment plants for its green campus initiatives, yet available only for several buildings and do not treat all wastewater generated from the campus activity. However, Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) of ABR system has not been widely studied, especially when it uses in treating of the campus wastewater. This study aims to conduct the LCA of the laboratory -scale ABR system in the campus wastewater treatment with gate-to-gate scope using Simapro 9.1.11 and the CML-IA Baseline. Three scenarios were tested: untreated wastewater, ABR equipped with peristaltic pumps, ABR without pumps. The results indicated that ABR treatment had a significantly lower environmental impact than untreated wastewater, with the greatest reduction in global warming potential (1.51E-08 to 4.98E-11), followed by eutrophication and photochemical oxidation. This study is limited to the ABR system, future research could expand to include the full lifecycle, from material collection to final results.

Abstract

Biomass generates a large amount of waste. One of these is fish bones, corn husks, and coconut shells. Fish bone waste has the potential to be used as biobriquettes because it contains 10.16% carbon. To maximize the potential of fish bone waste, it should be mixed with corn husks and coconut shells. In addition, more calories can be added to the biobriquettes.  In the manufacture of biobriquettes, pyrolysis temperature also affects the quality of the resulting biobriquettes. The purpose of this study was to determine the quality of biobriquettes with a mixture of fish bones, corn husks, and coconut shells at 5000C and 3500C. The compositions of the biobriquette materials used in this study were 100% fish bone waste, fish bone:coconut shell waste (50:50), and fish bone waste:corn husk (50:50). The results of the study showed that biobriquettes with a mixture of fish bones and coconut shell 50:50 at a pyrolysis temperature of 350 °C had the best quality according to SNI 01-6235-2000 concerning wood charcoal briquettes. The water content and calorific value were 1.93% and 5,913.6 cal/g, respectively. The addition of coconut shells and corn husks affected the characteristics of biobriquettes made from fish bone waste.

Abstract

Household solid waste sampling is a critical part of solid waste management planning, as the results determine the design of the required infrastructure. However, the method suggested by the Indonesian national standard requires time and high costs, as it must be carried out for eight consecutive days. Hence, it is necessary to evaluate this requirement and design a more efficient sampling design without compromising the results. The study conducted solid waste sampling for 16 consecutive days from 31 middle-income households in Jakarta, the Capital City of Indonesia, resulting in a pool of 16 consecutive daily averages of solid waste generation per capita data. From this pool, we generated: (1) solid waste generation per capita from eight consecutive days, (2) six consecutive days, (3) four consecutive days, and (4) eight non-consecutive days data. The results showed that the average of solid waste generation per capita for datasets (1), (2), (3), and (4) are 0.505 (± 0.022) kg/day/cap, 0.495 (± 0.044) kg/day/cap, 0.501 (± 0.035) kg/day/cap, and 0.492 (± 0.02) kg/day/cap consecutively, indicating the same estimates of solid waste generation per capita can be achieved by four scenarios.

Abstract

This study presents the development and application of an innovative 3-in-1 nanotechnology pyrolysis reactor designed to simultaneously produce liquid smoke, activated carbon, and limestone from locally sourced raw materials in Jambi Province, Indonesia. The multifunctional reactor combines three production processes, which are traditionally performed separately, into a single, efficient unit, addressing both economic and environmental challenges. Coal serves as the primary heat source and material for activated carbon, whereas shell waste is calcined to produce limestone. The reactor operates at temperatures exceeding 550°C to ensure optimal conversion, with a glass wool insulator replacing clay to enhance thermal efficiency. The liquid smoke undergoes further distillation to achieve purification, while residual activated carbon is chemically activated with H₃PO₄ to enhance its adsorption capacity. The experimental results demonstrate that this reactor can produce high-quality products with minimal resource wastage. This 3-in-1 pyrolysis reactor represents a sustainable, cost-effective solution for resource-limited settings, with broad potential for application in waste-to-product conversion, environmental remediation, and rural development.

Abstract

Eco-friendly alternative fuels encourage the use of waste biomass as a material for making briquettes. This study aimed to develop briquettes from rice husk biomass and peat moss and add spent leaching earth (SBE). SBE is a hazardous and toxic waste increasingly piling up in landfills. The research method involved carbonizing rice husks and peat moss, mixing them with SBE, molding with a 200 kg/cm2 Hydraulic Press, and drying. The resulting briquettes had an average water content of 5.86% and an ash content of 2.18%, which meet the SNI No. 01/6235/2000 standard. Morphological analysis revealed that the briquettes were round but exhibited non-homogeneous aggregation. The highest calorific value was found in C4 briquettes of 5030.17 cal/gr. The composition of C4 was 40% rice husk charcoal (4.8 g), 45% peat (5.4 g), and 15% SBE (1.8 g), with SBE dried for seven days. The addition of peat increased the calorific value of the briquettes. Based on scanning electron microscopy (SEM)/ energy-dispersive X-ray (EDX) analysis, the carbon content in the C4 briquettes reached 72.2%. This study shows that the combination of rice husk charcoal, SBE, and peat provides a renewable energy source and contributes to the reduction of environmental waste, thereby promoting sustainability.

Abstract

Ministry of Forestry has designated Kreo Sub-watershed, part of Garang Watershed, a critical area due to high erosion rates contributing to flooding in Semarang. Rapid land use changes accelerate environmental degradation, increasing erosion and sedimentation risks. This study measures erosion and sedimentation rates in Kreo Sub-watershed using SWAT (Soil and Water Assessment Tool), determines Erosion Hazard Index, and proposes erosion control solutions based on Land Rehabilitation and Soil Conservation Analysis (ARLKT) with vegetative conservation. ARLKT approach includes simulating new land use scenarios to assess their impact on erosion reduction. To ensure SWAT modelling accurately represents field conditions and not overestimate, allowing conservation recommendations based on ARLKT applied appropriately, a field-based sedimentation analysis also conducted. The study utilizes rainfall, soil type, slope, and land use data in 2019 and 2024 from satellite imagery and validated using a confusion matrix. Results indicate a shift in Erosion Hazard Index from predominantly ‘Moderate’ in 2019 to ‘High’ in 2024, underscoring urgent need for sustainable watershed management. By integrating remote sensing, field validation, and hydrological modeling, this study offers a precise, data-driven approach to erosion control. The findings serve critical reference for policymakers in developing effective conservation strategies to enhance watershed resilience.

Abstract

This study utilized an LCA approach to comparatively analyze the environmental impact of using coal and RDF as industrial energy sources. Coal, which constitutes the foundation of Indonesia's economy and its primary energy source, has resulted in substantial emissions. In response to this challenge, RDF has emerged as a promising alternative fuel made from municipal waste with a calorific value equivalent to coal. The findings of this research consistently demonstrate that RDF exhibits a considerably diminished environmental impact profile in comparison to coal, across a wide range of evaluated impact categories. For instance, RDF contributes a mere 2% to terrestrial and freshwater aquatic ecotoxicity, whereas coal contributes 98%. RDF exhibits a minimal contribution to acidification potential, eutrophication, ozone depletion, and human toxicity. The novelty of this research lies in its in-depth comparative analysis of the environmental impacts of coal and RDF using LCA with gate-to-gate boundaries, as well as the identification of key impact points (hotspots) in each energy production process. These findings serve to reinforce the argument that RDF is a more sustainable and environmentally friendly energy option for Indonesia's industrial sector.

Abstract

Padang restaurants have become one of the favorite places for residents of Tembalang District because of the distinctive taste of the food they serve. However, many Padang restaurants have not managed their waste properly. This study aimed to determine the relationship between waste management and fly density levels at Padang restaurants in the Tembalang District. This was an analytical study with a cross-sectional design. The study was conducted from October to December 2023. The research sample consisted of 45 Padang restaurants selected using total sampling technique. The results show that most food waste comes from customer plate waste (60%) with rice being the most wasted food type (37.8%). The majority of restaurants have a relatively poor waste sorting category (68.9%) but mostly the waste containers meets the requirements (75.6%). Fly density levels in Padang restaurants mostly are still categorized as high (53.5%). Waste containers is associated with fly density levels (p=0.030), while waste sorting is not associated with fly density levels (p=0.057). It could be concluded that waste containers without lids with insufficient capacity are associated with fly density levels at Padang restaurants in Tembalang District.
