ABSTRACT Inherent Moisture (IM) is water contained in coal when coal is formed. IM is specifically found in the internal pore structure of coal and has a vapor pressure lower than normal vapor pressure. IM levels are considered as the basic characteristics of coal. High IM levels correlate with calorific value. The higher IM levels, the lower the caloric value. Calorific value is one of the main parameters in determining the quality of coal. The higher the calorific value, the higher the heat produced by coal. The purpose of this observation is to determine the relationship of Levels of Inherent Moisture (IM) to the calorific value of coa l Keywords : Coal, Correlation, Inherent Moisture, Linear Regression.

Analytical chemistry is one branch of chemistry in which there is a way to determine certain ion levels using selective and specific reagents. One type of ion that can be known is the sulfate ion. Sulfate ions are one of the main anions that appear in water naturally. Sulfate is one of the important ions in water availability because of its important effect on humans when it is available in large quantities. The maximum limit of sulfate in water is around 250 mg / L for human-consumed water. This study uses qualitative analysis to determine whether water in the Jakabaring Sport City Palembang region contains sulfate ions or not. Samples taken directly from five different points were reacted with HCl and BaCl2. The results obtained are the five positive water samples containing sulfate ions which are characterized by the formation of white deposits.

Synthesis of magnetic clay (Mg / Al-Fe Hydrotalcite) and its application as fulvic acidadsorbent has been carried out. Mg / Al-Fe Hydrotalcite was synthesized by reactingFeCl2.6H2O and FeSO4.7H2O (1: 1) solutions with Mg (NO3)2.6H2O and Al (NO3)3.9H2O (2:1) using the coprecipitation method simultaneously at pH intervals 10-13. Synthesis studiesinclude the study of the characteristics of solids synthesized using X-ray diffractometer andFTIR spectrometers, Mg / Al-Fe Hydrotalcite magnetism test using an external magnetic fieldand Mg / Al-Fe Hydrotalcite stability test in various medium pH. Fulvic acid was isolatedusing methanol solution and characterized using FTIR spectroscopy. The study of fulvic acidadsorption and desortion was studied by studying the fulvic acid adsorption kinetics by Mg /Al-Fe Hydrotalcite and the effect of time on the concentrated fulvic acid concentration of Mg/ Al-Fe Hydrotalcite.The characterization results showed the characteristics of the peak and the functionalgroup Mg / Al-Fe Hydrotalcite in X-ray diffractogram and FTIR spectra. The stability of Mg /Al-Fe Hydrotalcite tends to be stable at pH above 3. Based on FTIR spectra data, Telukpanjifulvic acid has the main functional groups namely -COOH (aliphatic and aromatic) andphenoh-OH groups. The results of the adsorption pattern of fuvic acid by Mg / Al-FeHydrotalcite are first order reaction kinetics that reach equilibrium with a reaction rateconstant (k1) of 24 x 10-4 minutes-1. The results of post-adsorption characterization showedthat fulvic acid entered into the inter-layer of Mg / Al-Fe Hydrotalcite as evidenced by theincrease in basal spacing prices in d003 which is a characteristic of hydrotalcite. Theinfluence of time on the concentrated fulvic acid concentration showed that the fulvic acidcould be desorbed from Mg / Al-Fe Hydrotalcite by 82.83% or 18.52 mg / L from a totalconcentration of 22.3556 mg / L.
