Abstract

The increasing lack of clean water has created a paradigm for treating wastewater directly from the source. This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of processing domestic waste using plastic bottle caps in the anaerobe and aerobe reactor system by measuring several key parameters in wastewater. Experimental study on on-site wastewater treatment system using two bioreactors, a biodegradation made from fruit and vegetable peel waste, and local microorganisms. Domestic wastewater was used in this study. The wastewater treatment system's performance was monitored using parameters like pH, temperature, total suspended solids (TSS), chemical oxygen demand (COD), and biochemical oxygen demand (BOD), collected daily at 9 am during peak wastewater generation. The wastewater treatment system using aerobe and anaerobic reactors with plastic bottle cap media and microorganism biodegradation effectively reduced the TSS, COD, and BOD. The anaerobe reactors were more effective at removing these pollutants, with a maximum TSS reduction of 81.1%, COD removal efficiency of 90.1%, and BOD removal efficiency of 80.2%. The longer acclimatization time of the anaerobe reactor may make it more efficient after acclimatization compared to the aerobe reactor. Although the anaerobe reactor may require a longer acclimatization time, it ultimately results in a higher efficiency in terms of TSS, COD, and BOD reduction compared to the aerobe reactor.

Abstract

Corn is a well-cultivated food crop that is grown extensively worldwide. The used portion of corn is its seeds, which are rich in oil. The objective of this study is to separate and characterize tocopherol from corn oil in Dompu, Sumbawa by employing spectroscopic techniques such as ultraviolet (UV) spectrophotometry, ultra-performance liquid chromatography (UPLC), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS). Subsequently, the in-vitro antioxidant activity of the tocopherol was assessed. 1 kilogram of dry maize kernels subjected to 70% ethanol extraction yielded 30 grams (35 ml) of corn oil. The purified isolate obtained from the fractionated extract, using radial chromatography, demonstrated the presence of tocopherol. The isolated sample exhibited the presence of beta-tocopherol. Beta-tocopherol's anti-aging properties were assessed by conducting an in-vitro antioxidant activity test utilizing the tyrosinase enzyme. The IC50 value obtained was 83.954±2.849 ppm. The IC50 value indicates that beta-tocopherol possesses significant antioxidant activity, making it suitable for usage as a primary ingredient in cosmetics and pharmaceutical products.

Abstract

Substituting diesel technology with eco-technologies in public buses is one of the prominent efforts being made to achieve a sustainable transportation system goal. Among these eco-technologies, commonly used ones include electric vehicles, natural gas fuel, hydrogen fuel, and bio-diesel fuel technology. However, the performance comparison between these technologies in reducing environmental impact at each location where they are implemented remains unanswered by previous studies. Research to measure the effectiveness of each of the eco-technologies in reducing environmental issues has been conducted extensively, employing various methods and metrics. This study conducted a systematic review of 94 articles that met the predefined inclusion criteria to obtain performance comparisons among these technologies. As a result, a general trend has been observed that eco-technologies have successfully achieved their intended goals with various success rates, although electric bus technology has advantages over other technologies based on the articles. However, its effectiveness relies on specific aspects to optimize its environmental performance. Therefore, the suitability of implementation in a region will depend on many factors. This article contributes to determining the extent to which eco-technologies are implemented in buses worldwide, serving as a consideration for decision-makers, and identifying research gaps in this topic.

Abstract

To ensure the quality of mass-produced products, non-destructive material testing (NDT) is required with a method that has high testing speed and accuracy. Products that have undergone heat treatment such as automotive components to obtain a specific hardness value need to be tested to ensure the desired quality. Some parameters such as coercivity and permeability of the ferromagnetic materials, can be used to characterize the shape of the hysteresis curve. The hysteresis curve geometry is related to mechanical hardness, hot working record, and the presence of residual stresses. This paper will present how the coercivity value measurement can be done using the Barkhausen effect, as well as a study of the correlation between the coercivity value and the hardness of a ferromagnetic material using the regression analysis method. Indentation testing has also been done to verify different approaches to obtain hardness value by Barkhausen noise analysis. The research shows that this technique was sufficiently accurate with superior rapid testing and no indentation mark.

Abstract

The red dragon fruit peels (RDFP) have a high content of pectin and total phenolic compounds. This research studied the development of RDFP be an antioxidative edible film. The RDFP was extracted by microwave to obtain high pectin and polyphenol content, and then the red dragon fruit peel extract (RDFPE) was used as a based material. The RDFPE was added with 5% (w/v) of carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) and 10% (w/v) of soy protein isolate (SPI) to increase their tensile strength. The result showed that RDFPE potential to develop as an antioxidative edible film. There are different effects of CMC and SPI. The addition of CMC had a positive effect on total polyphenol and antioxidant properties but SPI had a negative effect. Against the peroxide number of peanut oils, all RDFPE films can inhibit. The effect of CMC and SPI on physical and mechanical properties were increasing thickness, and tensile strength decreasing transparency, solubility, also elongation. The FTIR showed a difference in macromolecule interaction between RDFPE with CMC and SPI. The interaction between RDFPE with CMC occurred with pectin while SPI interacted both with pectin and polyphenol. Thus, macromolecule interaction affected on physical, mechanical, and antioxidative properties of RDFPE edible films, and revealed that CMC was more suitable to add to RDFPE edible film.

Abstract

Predicting the location of earthquake epicenters is a critical aspect of earthquake forecasting, as it complements efforts to determine the time and magnitude of seismic events. This research addresses the challenge posed by the uncertainty in epicenter locations, particularly along the extensive plate faults of Indo-Australia and Eurasia. In these regions, effective earthquake prediction is compromised without accurate epicenter information, impeding mitigation strategies and complicating disaster impact estimation. The primary objective of this study is to devise an algorithm for forecasting earthquake epicenter locations by harnessing variations in radon gas concentrations on southern Java Island, Indonesia, as a predictive precursor. Using a supervised machine learning approach, this study integrates radon gas concentration data to predict the distance between a radon gas telemonitoring station and the impending earthquake epicenter. Three distinct machine learning algorithms were evaluated using data from six Java-Bali radon gas telemonitoring stations within an early warning system. The random forest algorithm emerged as the most effective, yielding an average root mean square error of 453.10 kilometers. The findings of this research significantly contribute to earthquake risk mitigation efforts. This work enhances our capability to anticipate seismic events, and more effective disaster preparedness and response strategies in earthquake-prone regions.

Abstract

Rising concern about environmental protection has demanded prompt researchers’ attention towards alternative renewable energy sources. Thus, biofuel production with biodegradation of crop straws through anaerobic digestion has attracted the attention of the scientific community. However, the lignocellulosic nature of rice straw poses resistance to its disintegration through anaerobic digestion. Aiming to optimize the concentration of sodium hydroxide pretreatment of rice straw for efficient biogas production this study was conducted. For this purpose, the pretreatment was done on rice straw with different concentrations of sodium hydroxide at about 25 °C temperature for 24 hours before subjecting it to anaerobic digestion for biogas production. The 6% sodium hydroxide pretreated rice straw was observed to be resulting in the highest cumulative biogas production which was found to be 56.3% higher than untreated rice straw. In the kinetic study of biogas production, 6% NaOH pretreated rice straw shows the highest biogas production potential at the highest rate of 15.8496 ml/day with a minimum lag period of 0.6758. The experimental study and kinetic study results represent that 6% NaOH pretreated rice straw has the highest biogas production.

Abstract

Technological progress significantly impacts agriculture, with the rapid expansion of industrial and residential areas leading to a scarcity of agricultural land. Modern farming techniques like hydroponics have emerged as a solution, allowing plant growth with water as a medium. Real-time monitoring of water quality is crucial for hydroponic systems. Lettuce (Lactuca sativa) is particularly compatible with hydroponics due to its short growth cycle and nutritional value. Key factors for successful cultivation include maintaining pH, temperature, and nutrient levels within optimal ranges. To address water quality monitoring complexities, internet of things (IoT) technology offers a promising solution. IoT devices autonomously gather environmental metrics such as temperature, pH, humidity, and nutrient concentrations. This study integrates an IoT-driven hydroponic water quality monitoring system using the seasonal auto-regressive integrated moving average (SARIMA) algorithm and the ESP32 microcontroller. This approach allows real-time water quality management, enhancing lettuce cultivation efficiency and productivity. The proposed model achieved 98.6% accuracy, effectively predicting water quality.

Abstract

The aim of the study is to determine leaf nutrients, the number of ecological-trophic groups of microorganisms and the structure of microbial communities, microbial biomass ratios, and soil parameters in the upper soil horizons in the territory of the Sheki-Zagatala economic region from five representative hazelnut gardens located in the hazelnut producing villages of Katex, Darvazbina, Boyuktala (Balakan region), and Car, Galal (Zagatala region). Has been reported that soils with slightly acidic reactions are ideal for hazelnut cultivation. Hazelnut trees in Azerbaijan have sustainable and nutritious characteristics. They grow naturally without using any chemical fertilizers and pesticides. The soil fertility of the orchards is a key factor affecting the yield and quality of nuts. The number of microorganisms at 0-15 cm in spring was 10.059·103, 7.786·103 bacterias, 3.009·103 ray fungi, and 73·103 other microscopic fungi. In moderately eroded areas, the total number of microorganisms in spring was 8.927·103, bacterias 5.895·103, ray fungi 1.874·103, and other microscopic fungi 68 103. In non-eroded fertile soils, the number of microorganisms at a depth of 0-15 cm in autumn was 8.020·103 bacteria, 5.246·103 bacteria, 1.789·103 radiant fungi, and 5.8·103 microscopic fungi. The nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), and potassium (K) contents of tree leaves in each variant ranged from 0.49-1.07, 0.16-0.36, and 0.58-1.49%, respectively, with average values of 0.73, 0.21, and 1.03%.

Abstract

Current studies about digital twins (DT) generally provide little support to interested parties in selecting suitable providers. The aim of the present study is, on the one hand, to ask whether existing rankings could be used to derive a quick, cost-efficient decision. On the other hand, it is to be questioned how the provider market is developing. Therefore, the study based on the one hand on 10 provider rankings of DT and the other hand on detailed research of n=153 providers was included for a detailed analysis of trends. The following findings were obtained: i) The selected top 10 rankings can serve as a fast, cost-efficient selection approach for providers; ii) the DT market is dominated by established, large top providers with North American locations; and iii) Since 2010 there has been a trend in the form of a disproportionately large number of new providers.
