Abstract

Plastic pollution, especially high-density polyethylene (HDPE), is highly concerned with human health and ecosystems. This study investigates the potential of the electrocoagulation process on the removal of HDPE microplastics from water, evaluating the best operating conditions, including the voltage (4, 8, and 12 V), time (40, 80, and 120 minutes), and pH (3, 5, 7, and 9) to achieve the maximum removal efficiency. Coagulation experiments were conducted in the electrolytic cell, using stainless steel and aluminum electrodes, while Na₂SO₄ served as the electrolyte. Because loss of surface area and change in structure was more evident in fragmented flake and granular microplastics (FTIR and SEM analyses), those microplastics were more retained in the swollen coagulant. The alkaline condition also supports the highest removal efficiency of 96.60% when the pH, voltage, and duration were 9, 8V, and 120 minutes, respectively, as experienced in addition to 0.1g of carbon CTO5 in the study. Conclusions Our findings show that electrocoagulation works best at a medium voltage and in alkaline pH conditions. Under low pH conditions, the removal is not notably influenced by the applied voltage, whereas under neutral and alkaline conditions, removal is significantly enhanced with increased voltage. Moreover, the stainless steel electrodes were more corrosion-resistant than aluminum, thus making the process more sustainable. The results indicate that electrocoagulation represents an environmentally friendly, effective microplastic removal method under the right voltage, time, and pH conditions. Such techniques are an effective strategy that helps reduce water contamination and conserve ecosystems.

Abstract

The utilization of Roya wood branches (RWB) as raw material for activated charcoal production has not yet been optimized in North Sulawesi, specifically in Wulauan Village, North Tondano District. This study aims to present the results of the analysis of the physical and chemical properties, X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), and Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM) of RWB-based activated charcoal. The production of activated charcoal was conducted in three stages: sample preparation, pyrolysis of RWB at a temperature of 365°C for approximately 3 hours, and activation of RWB charcoal using phosphoric acid (H₃PO₄) at concentrations of 1%, 2%, and 3% for 24 hours. The analysis of physical and chemical properties of both non-activated and H₃PO₄-activated RWB activated charcoal showed that the best quality was obtained at a 3% activator concentration, with a moisture content of 0.1683%, ash content of 2.3321%, volatile matter content (VMC) of 0.9429%, fixed carbon (FC) content of 96.7250%, and iodine adsorption capacity (IAC) of 10,535 mg/g, all of which meet the SNI 06-3037-1995 for activated charcoal. XRD analysis showed that non-activated RWB charcoal had three broad diffraction peaks in the ranges of 9–14°, 20–25°, and 35–50°, along with one sharp peak in the range of 25–30°. After activation with H₃PO₄, only three broad diffraction peaks were observed at 9–14°, 20–25°, and 35–50° for all three H₃PO₄ concentration variations.TEM analysis indicated that non-activated RWB charcoal had particle sizes ranging from 20–33 nm, while after activation with 1% H₃PO₄, the particle sizes ranged from 41–51 nm..

Abstract

This study investigates the implementation of the Culturally Responsive Transformative Teaching (CRTT) model integrated with podcast media, culture-based worksheets (LKPD), and e-assessment in relation to students’ science literacy and critical thinking skills. A quasi experimental design with a non-equivalent group structure was employed, involving 72 students from two classes, consisting of one experimental group receiving the integrated intervention and one comparison group experiencing conventional instruction. Podcast media were used to deliver contextual and narrative-based content on global warming, while CRTT stages cultural understanding, collaboration, and transformative construction guided classroom activities. Student outcomes were measured using science literacy and critical thinking tests administered through e-assessment. Data were analyzed using the Kruskal–Wallis test to compare differences between groups for each dependent variable. The results indicated statistically significant differences (p < 0.05) in both science literacy and critical thinking scores between the experimental and comparison groups. However, given that the intervention simultaneously combined multiple components (CRTT model, podcast media, culture-based LKPD, and e-assessment), the observed effects cannot be attributed to a single instructional element in isolation.Overall, the findings suggest that the integrated approach is associated with improved student outcomes, although further research using more controlled designs is needed to disentangle the specific contribution of each component.

Abstract

Scientific reasoning in chemistry involves the ability to apply conceptual knowledge in problem-solving, as well as to evaluate issues within broader social, ethical, and environmental contexts. However, conventional assessments often fail to capture this multidimensionality by reducing performance to a single final score. This study uses an integrated learning analytics approach to analyze students’ reasoning performance across two core domains of chemistry learning—applied reasoning and socio-chemical reasoning. A quantitative descriptive design was employed, involving 56 pre-service chemistry teachers who completed four open-ended essay questions, two in each reasoning domain. Student responses were scored using an analytical rubric assessing conceptual accuracy, logical coherence, and justification relevance. Data were analyzed using single-domain and multicomponent strategies, including quadrant profiling, trajectory mapping, clustering, and distribution analysis. Visual tools such as radar charts, spaghetti plots, contour density plots, and alluvial diagrams were used to depict students’ reasoning profiles. Results revealed that most students demonstrated moderate reasoning abilities, although notable inconsistencies were observed between the domains. Individual trajectories exhibited non-linear variations, highlighting diverse cognitive patterns. Clustering and heatmaps indicated distinct learner segments, while alluvial diagrams illustrated transitions between reasoning levels across domains. These findings suggest that students’ reasoning abilities are varied and dynamic. It is concluded that chemistry reasoning is multidimensional and should be assessed through integrated, data-driven methods. The study recommends the adoption of formative, analytics-supported assessments to inform differentiated instruction and promote deeper conceptual and ethical engagement in chemistry education.

Abstract

Textile dye effluents are hazardous because many residual dyes are persistent, toxic, and potentially carcinogenic. This study assessed an environmentally friendly coagulation flocculation route to remove Remazol Yellow, an azo dye used in the batik industry in South Sulawesi, by substituting synthetic reagents with papaya (Carica papaya) seeds as a coagulant and Aloe vera gel as a flocculant. FTIR confirmed hydroxyl, carboxyl, and amine groups in papaya seeds, while Aloe vera gel was dominated by polysaccharide and carboxylate features. Jar tests were performed at room temperature using an initial dye concentration of 30 mg L−1. Coagulation was conducted for 5 min at 950 rpm, followed by flocculation for 30 min at 125 rpm and sedimentation for 30 min. Residual dye was measured by UV Vis spectrophotometry at 417 nm. Operational variables were optimized, including coagulant particle size (30 to 100 mesh), papaya seed dose (10 to 50 mg L−1), and Aloe vera gel dose (10 to 60 g L−1). The optimum particle size was 70 mesh, giving 60.4 percent removal. The optimum papaya seed dose was 20 mg L−1 with 83.5 percent removal, and the optimum Aloe vera gel dose was 50 g L−1, achieving 97.4 percent removal. These results demonstrate the potential of papaya seeds and Aloe vera gel as effective and sustainable materials for batik dye wastewater treatment.

Abstract

Islamic Religious Colleges (PTKI) 's key mission is to promote religious moderation for students. This aspect is currently missing in the Chemical Education Studies Program curriculum. To address this, we constructed a teaching module that applied the 4S-TMD method (Selection, structuring, characterization, and didactical reduction). This work is based on experimental data of using waste palm coconut shells as activated carbon for methylene blue dye adsorption, which formed two modules: Inorganic Chemistry II (Module A) and Instrumental Analysis Chemistry (Module B). The selection phase was designed with graduate learning outcomes (GLO), learning content, and indicators of religious moderation in module design. The item content validity index (I-CVI), measuring content validity, reached an excellent average of 0.98. During the structuring phase, laboratory experimental results were mapped conceptually. Module A performed excellently, with a validity of 85%, whereas Module B was below 80%. After the refinement steps, both modules reached 100% validity. The measure of the value of religious moderation of GLO indicates >60% for 10 variables, whereas the self-assessment of the nine values of religious moderation of students shows very good (above 20%). This is the first study applying religious moderation to chemistry education and showed that the 4S-TMD method of implementing the 4S-TS method was effective (4.9/5.0 for eligibility). Sow enjoyably integrates chemistry and science education with similar values, which can take place using their type.

Abstract

This study analyzes traditional granulated palm sugar (gula semut) production as an ethno-chemical system for contextual carbohydrate food chemistry learning through an AI-assisted applied ethnographic approach. Public YouTube videos and short online news features were treated as mediated field sites. From more than 200 sources, 53 eligible videos were selected and transcribed through a systematic data-processing workflow. Data analysis followed Miles and Huberman’s interactive model and Strauss and Corbin’s open–axial–selective coding, supported by a large language model to identify recurring practices and relate them to underlying chemical mechanisms. Four production stages were reconstructed, covering sap collection and initial processing, heating–concentration–early crystallization, crystallization and granulation, and drying–stabilization–packaging. The heating, concentration, and early crystallization stage emerged as the central physicochemical control window, where producers regulate fire intensity, foam behavior, evaporation, viscosity, color, and aroma to control concentration increase, boiling-point elevation, non-enzymatic browning, and the approach to supersaturation. Environmental conditions, fuel choice, cleanliness, and informal pH boundaries also function as additional control layers influencing product quality. The study generates practice-to-concept evidence maps and exemplar learning activities aligned with curriculum topics such as colligative properties, thermochemistry, reaction rates, and physical versus chemical change. These findings suggest that ethno-chemical reconstruction can support culturally grounded chemistry education by transforming local production practices into scientifically meaningful and pedagogically usable learning contexts

Abstract

Bisphenol-A (BPA) is a chemical widely used in the production of polycarbonate plastics and epoxy resins, commonly found in bottled water containers. BPA migration into drinking water can occur due to variations in pH and temperature during storage, posing potential health risks with prolonged exposure. This study focuses on the development of a rapid and accurate colorimetric paper sensor for BPA detection. The sensor employs a chromogenic reagent that selectively reacts with BPA, resulting in a visible color change from yellow to dark red. Experimental results demonstrated that the sensor exhibits high sensitivity, with a limit of detection (LOD) of approximately 0.29 mmol L⁻¹. Validation using water samples from plastic bottles exposed to environmental conditions confirmed the sensor’s capability to effectively identify BPA leaching. Additionally, the sensor showed excellent stability, indicated by a relative standard deviation (%RSD) of 0.62%, and high accuracy, with recovery values ranging from 100.87% to 107.39%. These findings suggest that the developed colorimetric paper sensor is a promising tool for on-site monitoring of BPA contamination in drinking water, providing a simple, fast, and cost-effective alternative to conventional analytical methods.

Abstract

Bioactive peptides are known for their diverse biological functions, many of which support health and well-being. In this study, we synthesized and evaluated the anti-inflammatory potential of the peptide AWVDY, derived from oyster (Crassostrea rivularis). The synthesis was performed using the solid-phase peptide synthesis (SPPS) method, applying the Fmoc strategy on 2-chlorotrityl chloride (2-CTC) resin, and achieved a high yield of 95.83%. The resulting peptide was characterized using Time-of-Flight Mass Spectrometry (TOF-MS), which detected a peak at m/z [M+H⁺] 653.1418, consistent with the expected molecular formula C₃₂H₄₀N₆O₉. This was further validated by analytical HPLC, showing a retention time of 22.596 minutes. Molecular docking studies indicated that AWVDY binds favorably to the pro-inflammatory cytokines TNF-α and Interleukin-6, with binding affinities of -10.360, -10.430, and -8.960 kcal/mol, respectively. These findings suggest that AWVDY may act as a dual-target peptide capable of modulating inflammatory pathways, highlighting its potential as a promising candidate for the development of new anti-inflammatory therapeutics.

Abstract

This study evaluates the photocatalytic performance and charge transfer behavior of Mn-doped ZnO chitosan membranes, both with and without glycerol, for the degradation of tartrazine under visible light. The membranes were prepared by homogeneous mixing using chitosan as the polymer matrix, ZnO as the photocatalyst, Mn2+ as the dopant, and glycerol as a plasticizer. Membrane morphology and elemental distribution were examined using SEM and EDX, and supported by physical tests. Glycerol increased membrane flexibility and mechanical strength, but reduced porosity and surface hydrophilicity, indicating a denser polymer network and water accessibility. Photocatalytic activity was quantified from UV Vis monitoring of tartrazine and fitted to pseudo-first-order kinetics. The glycerol-containing membrane showed a higher rate constant (k = 0.4398 h−1) than the membrane without glycerol (k = 0.0893 h−1). The performance improvement is attributed to better catalyst retention and dispersion in the matrix, which supports photon utilization and charge separation. Mechanistic interpretation suggests that Mn2+ acts as an electron trap, thereby suppressing electron-hole recombination and promoting the formation of reactive species. At the same time, glycerol can suppress the generation of hydroxyl and superoxide radicals by limiting contact among tartrazine, water, and photocatalytically active sites. Overall, the results reveal a trade-off between transport properties and catalytic efficiency, identifying glycerol content as a key parameter for optimizing Mn-doped ZnO chitosan membranes for dye wastewater treatment.
