Abstract

One of the concentration processes in processing sulfide gold ore is the flotation technique which takes advantage of differences in mineral surface properties by adding chemical reagents. The addition of chemical reagents to the flotation process can cause environmental problems. Therefore, efforts are needed to replace chemical reagents with more environmentally friendly materials. In this research, an attempt was made to replace chemical reagents with a commonly found plant extract, namely aloe vera, as a bioreagent. Bioflotation experiments on a laboratory scale were carried out using a Denver flotation cell with an aloe vera reagent as a frother. This gold mineral bioflotation experiment was carried out on a 150 mesh size fraction. The results of increasing concentrate levels by flotation indicate that the aloe vera reagent as a frother is able to produce biosurfactants which replace chemical reagents as a more environmentally friendly biofrother and biocollector. This can be concluded based on flotation experiment data with bioreagent which has been tested showing an Au content value of 10.09 and a recovery of 96.15%, while flotation using chemical reagents shows an Au content value of 10.50 and a recovery of 95.96%. So the use of aloe vera as an environmentally friendly bioreagent in the flotation process releasing low sulfidation gold is more effective than the use of chemical reagents because it is indicated that there is a biosurfactant content in aloe vera.

Abstract

The weld quality its significantly depends on the mechanical characteristics of weld joint, the welding process, parameters weld process and also material selection. Insufficient parameter values and welding method can lead to welding defects and distortion that adversely affect mechanical properties. Consequently, carefully selecting appropriate weld method at an optimal level becomes crucial to mitigate defects, enhance productivity, and achieve desirable mechanical attributes in shielded metal arc welding (SMAW). PPSDM Migas has special facilities for conducting welding workshops or training and for equipment inspection or testing in the metallurgy laboratory. One of the inspected items is the welding used to join pipes. In this study, the inspected pipe is Carbon Steel ASTM A106 Grade B, welded using SMAW in the 6G position from the PPSDM Migas Cepu Refinery Unit area. The inspection methods used in this study are the Dye-Penetrant Test, Tensile Test, and Bending Test to identify welding defects and material strength. The tests conducted refer to ASME Section IX. Based on the DyePenetrant Test results on the Carbon Steel ASTM A106 pipe joint, five rounded defects were found on the weld surface, still within the acceptance criteria of ASME Section IX, thus the pipe is declared accepted. According to the Tensile Test results, spesimens 1 and 2 broke in the weld area but met the ASME Section IX criteria with tensile strengths of 464.098 MPa and 713.597 MPa, respectively, both exceeding 415 MPa, which is the tensile strength of ASTM A106 carbon steel. However, the Bending Test results showed open defects up to 3 mm, causing the pipe joint to be declared declined.

Abstract

The acid wash process is used as a unit operation in the gold adsorption route with the primary objective of removing calcium carbonate, magnesium, and sodium salts from gold-rich carbon surfaces. In general, the use of HCl with an initial concentration of 3% (w/v) and immersion for 1 hour with 1 bed volume of acid can achieve calcium removal of more than 95% from the carbon surface. This research involved reducing the HCl concentration from 3% to varying concentrations between 1%, 1.25%, 1.5%, 1.75%, 2%, 2.25%, 2.5%, and 2.75% with the aim is to optimize the use of HCl and increase economic efficiency in the acid wash process. Analysis of carbon activity data shows that the acid wash process does not have a significant effect on carbon reactivation. The research method involves collecting activated carbon samples in three types, namely Loaded Carbon (LC), Carbon After Wash (CAW), and Barren Carbon (BC). The samples were then analyzed using the Carbon hardness test to evaluate the level of impurities on the carbon surface, as well as the Carbon activity test to measure carbon absorption activity. Data on gold and silver recovery results was also collected from the elution process. The research results show that an HCl concentration of 2% provides optimal effectiveness in acid wash. At this concentration, desorption results were achieved that met the ADR KPI, confirming that acid wash did not significantly affect the gold desorption process. In addition, the acid wash efficiency at a concentration of 2% is close to the baseline value, indicating a good ability to clean carbon from impurities. In the context of this study, acid washing has been proven to be an effective method for cleaning activated carbon for gold adsorption. These findings provide an important contribution to improving the efficiency and quality of the gold absorption process.

Abstract

Flotation is a mineral concentration method that involves floating the minerals so that they can be separated from the gangue by the addition of reagents. The reagents used are chemicals such as frother and collector, which can potentially contaminate the environment. This research explores the potential use of aloe vera as a separating reagent in environmentally friendly gold ore flotation. The feed used consists of 300 grams of gold ore, and the flotation time is set at 15 minutes. XRD analysis is employed to determine the types of minerals contained in the sample, revealing that the sample consists of 97.64% quartz; Enstatite, syn 1.21%; and Clinochlore-1A 1.16%. Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometry (AAS) is the technique used to determine the metal concentration in a sample. AAS analysis indicates an Au concentration in the feed of 3.94 ppm. The Au concentration in the concentrate with the addition of aloe vera extract is 10.57, and in the tailings, it is 0.92, higher than the concentration in the concentrate without the addition of aloe vera extract, which is 10.11, with 1.89 in the tailings. The %recovery from these concentrations with the addition of aloe vera extract is 84.06%, while without the addition of aloe vera extract, it is 63.78%. This study provides evidence that the use of aloe vera in the gold ore flotation process can be a sustainable and environmentally friendly alternative in the effort to improve the separation of valuable minerals from impurities.

Abstract

With the goal of entering Indonesia’s golden dream 2045 in mineral technology and utilizations, expansive researches covering both experimental and theoretical aspects are urgently required. Here, we provide theoretical study on structural and mechanical properties of various nickel-based alloys based on first-principles, density functional theory (DFT) technique. First, we evaluate the accuracy of several exchange-correlation functionals (LDA-PZ, GGA-PBE, GGA-PBEsol) by comparing the calculated lattice constants for each system with the known experimental results. Based on the best functional, we analyze structural changes caused by the mixture of different atom to the principal element of nickel. Finally, we derived the related mechanical properties for all systems based on the calculated elastic constants. Furthermore, the elastic constants can also be used to predict the stability of alloy structure.

Abstract

The railway manufacturing industry is critical for developing efficient and sustainable mass transportation systems. PT. Industri Kereta Api (Persero) (PT. INKA), a leading company in Indonesia, faces significant challenges due to deformation caused by residual stress during welding processes. This study reviews various reforming techniques implemented by PT. INKA to address these issues. The objectives include evaluating the effectiveness of these techniques and identifying potential improvements. Methods such as post-weld heat treatment (PWHT), controlled cooling, and mechanical tools are analyzed for their ability to mitigate deformation. The study demonstrates that PWHT reduces residual stress and improves material quality by homogenizing the microstructure. Controlled cooling techniques effectively reduce distortion by allowing even temperature distribution during the cooling process. Mechanical tools provide nonthermal methods to stabilize and control deformation, significantly reducing distortion levels. Despite the success of these techniques, PT. INKA faces challenges related to process control and skill variance among workers. The study concludes that while reforming techniques significantly enhance the structural integrity and performance of railway components, consistent implementation and clear guidelines are essential for future improvements. Developing new technologies, enhancing workforce training, and creating comprehensive process guidelines are recommended to maintain high standards and competitiveness in the global market.

Abstract

A composite is a material structure composed of two or more combinations of constituents combined macroscopically, where the two combinations do not dissolve each other. The first phase is called reinforcement, while the second phase is called matrix. This study aims to analysis the tensile and bending strength values of coconut fiber reinforced composites with a sequence of layers of quasi-isotropic fiber laminates. Experimental studies were carried out on polyester resin composites reinforced with coconut fiber in the fiber layer sequences of [0°/0°/0°], [+45°/0°/-45°] and [+60°/0°/-60°]. Tensile test specimen standards refer to ASTM D-3039 and bending test standards refer to ASTM D-7264. The results of the blistering test obtained a maximum stress of 18.3298 N/mm2 in the fiber layer sequence [0°/0°/0°] and a minimum stress of 10.8966 N/mm2 in the fiber layer sequence [+60°/0°/ -60°]. Meanwhile, the bending test results showed that the maximum bending stress was 76.065 N/mm2 in the fiber layer sequence [0°/0°/0°] and the minimum stress was 30.256 N/mm2 in the fiber layer sequence [+45°/0°/-45 °].

Abstract

Coal Bed Methane (CBM) is generated by coal layers, there is a preceding process, which is the formation of coal (coalification). Coalification begins with the burial of organic material originating from plants. The burial, lasting hundreds of millions of years, results in increasing temperatures and pressures, causing physical and chemical changes to the organic material. Methane gas, the largest component of CBM, is formed. Two processes: biogenic and thermogenic. In the early stages of coalification, biogenic methane gas is produced as a byproduct of the activities of decomposing microorganisms (anaerobic bacteria), similar to what occurs in the decomposition of organic waste.  Only about 5 to 20 percent is stored within coal. There are four mechanisms for gas storage in coal: absorption, adsorption, free gas, and gas dissolved in water.  Among these four mechanisms, adsorption is the most significant, accounting for 98 percent of the stored CBM in a combined system of micropores (coal matrix) and cleats. Coal Bed Methane resources in Indonesia can be found across South Kalimantan, East Kalimantan, Sumatra, and Java.

Abstract

Steel is a metal alloy primarily composed of iron, with carbon as its main alloying material along with several other components according to specific requirements. Low carbon steel has a carbon content of 0.05-0.3% and is easily manufacturable. This type of steel is commonly used for vehicle frames and other applications. The material used in this study is Carbon Steel S355J2, classified as low carbon steel with 0.15% carbon and 1.46% manganese. Carbon Steel S355J2 is used for the underframe of freight trains by PT Industri Kereta Api Indonesia. Coating and protection are crucial due to its susceptibility to corrosion, which can damage its structure in operational railway environments. As additional data for the company and learning for the researcher, a pull-off test was conducted varying the thickness of the primer coat. The results showed that sample A (110 µm), B (150 µm), and C (200 µm) achieved adhesion strengths of 2.5 MPa, 4.5 MPa, and 5 MPa respectively. The surface roughness level of the samples was 90 - 120 µm. Based on the test results, the most suitable coating system for the UGL underframe painting project for PT Industri Kereta Api (INKA) is a primer with a thickness of 150 µm (Sample B). This thickness is not too high, yet it significantly exceeds PT INKA's minimum criteria and avoids overcoating.
