Abstract

Peat water is characterized by high acidity, turbidity, and poor sensory qualities, which limit its usability. This study evaluated the effectiveness of thermally activated coffee waste adsorbent (CWA) for peat water treatment. CWA was prepared by heating coffee waste at 250°C, followed by washing and drying at 60°C. Batch adsorption experiments were conducted using 1–3 g of CWA in 200 mL of peat water at 30°C, stirred at 150 rpm for 30 minutes. The results revealed significant improvements in water quality: pH increased from 3.85 to 4.62; turbidity was reduced by 99.37% (from 75 to 0.47 NTU); conductivity decreased by 30.7% (from 424 to 294 ?S/cm); and total dissolved solids (TDS) dropped by 93.3% (from 208 to 14 ppm). The Langmuir isotherm model (R² = 0.7297) provided a better fit than the Freundlich model (R² = 0.5845), indicating monolayer adsorption behavior with a maximum capacity of 0.1634 mg/g and a favorable separation factor (RL = 0.0057). Sensory evaluation confirmed enhanced color and odor. These findings support the use of CWA as a sustainable and low-cost adsorbent for improving peat water quality.

Abstract

Nitrogen recovery from wastewater is capable of preventing eutrophication, offering economic benefits, and reducing carbon footprint from synthetic fertilizer production. Biochar has been explored as adsorbent for ammonium (NH??) removal. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the potential of biochar derived from cocopeat as adsorbent for NH?? removal. Cocopeat was modified by potassium hydroxide (KOH) and pyrolyzed at 500°C for 2 h to produce activated biochar. Kinetics and isotherm studies were conducted to examine adsorption mechanisms. Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) data showed that the resulting biochar after activation and adsorption contained hydroxyl O–H and C–O groups, while a new N–H band confirmed the interaction with NH?? ions. Biochar adsorbed NH?? ions with a maximum capacity of 0.3078?mg/g. FTIR spectra showed shifts and changes in the intensity of functional group bands, confirming the interaction between NH?? ion and the active sites on biochar surface. Adsorption followed Langmuir isotherm and pseudo-first-order kinetics model, with an optimal contact time of 5 h. These results suggested that cocopeat-based biochar had potential as an effective NH?? adsorbent.

Abstract

Residue Fluidized Catalytic Cracking Unit (RFCCU) in the oil and gas industry is equipped with a regenerator that uses a cyclone to separate solid catalyst from reaction gases. Oxidation gases rise to the top of the regenerator before entering the cyclone stage. The cyclone inlet velocity depends on factors such as Main Air Blower (MAB) flow, dilute phase temperature, and dense bed temperature. Therefore, this study aimed to determine the effect of catalyst losses and combustion air flow rate on cyclone efficiency of RFCCU. The efficiency was determined simply by calculating catalyst losses compared to the catalyst inlet. The results showed that the dilute phase and dense bed temperature parameters had an indirect influence on cyclone inlet velocity. Furthermore, the separation efficiency of the device was 88% with 12 % catalyst loss by limiting the combustion air flow rate to a maximum value of 1,559 t/d. These limits should be met to prevent cavitation and reduce cyclone efficiency.
