Abstract

Chitosan membrane is capable of being used as adsorbent adsorption of metal ions Pb. Assessment of the electrical properties of the chitosan membrane is one see references in the membrane as ability adorpsi metal ion weight. The purpose of this study to determine the nature of the conductance of chitosan membranes useful to look at the ability of the membrane chitosan as the adsorption of metal ions Pb. This research is experimental research with samples of chitosan membranes were soaked in a solution of Pb metal. The time variation of soaking the membrane is 0.5 hours, 1 hour, 1.5 hours, 2 hours, 2.5 hours, 3 hours and without soaking. The measurement results for the effect of soaking variation time chitosan membrane. Pb metal in solution obtained current-voltage characteristics of the membrane in the solution is linear, the longer soaking in a solution of Pb metal, the greater the current flow. The longer the time soaking in a solution of Pb chitosan membrane, then the greater the value of the conductance. Keywords : Chitosan, Membrane, Adsorption, Conductance, Metal Pb

Abstract

West Sumatra is one of the regions is prone to earthquakes because it the positions of an active seductions zone between the Indo-Australian plate and the Eurasian Plate is along the Sumatra fault. The maximum ground acceleration is one of the important parameters, because it describes the strength of  earthquake vibration ever  happened. Therefore, it is necessary to do measurement and calculation of ground acceleration caused by earthquakes. By knowing the maximum ground acceleration values  in an area, we can  know  which area is prone to earthquakes. Data were analyzed by an earthquake scenario is created, and the epicenter 1.00o LS 99.00o BT, M = 8.8 magnitude and a depth of 30 km. Formulation of Mcguire (1963) and Donovan (1973) is used to find the value of the maximum ground acceleration and Murphy O'Brein empirical formula to find the value of intensity. The maximum ground acceleration value for each county / city in West Sumatra is calculated by using the position of the district / city as a reference point. The results of data processing maps obtained Peak Ground Acceleration (PGA) and the intensity of the earthquake. The analysis showed that the value of the PGA and the greatest intensity being Pariaman with a value PGA 177.59 gal and has a value of 7.67 MMI intensity. Then the value of the maximum ground acceleration both owned by the  Mentawai Islands with 176.72 gal and intensity value is 7.66 MMI.

Abstract

Most human uses material is a material that is susceptible to liquid. The risk of material quickly and easily damaged when exposed to dirty liquid. Each liquid has a viscosity different, so it needs some information about the characteristics of the material is hydrophobic in nature to be applied in the manufacture of the material. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of fluid viscosity on the hydrophobic properties of various kinds of leaves. From this research, the contact angle values obtained on average at each leaf with a variation of fluid distilled water, grease and oil . Value of the average contact angle generated at each sample starfruit leaves, cassava leaves and leaf velvetleaf with distilled water fluid (η=0.0538Ns/m2), oil (η=0.1352Ns/m2), and oil (η=0.1835Ns/m2) respectively were 122.3500, 49.7200 and 43.7500 on the leaves starfruit, 127.4400, 49.4200 and 26.1500 in the cassava leaves, 131.9200, 45.5600 and 17.700 in the leaves of velvetleaf . So this study shows that the viscosity of the fluid affect the value of the contact angle and hydrophobic properties, ie the greater the viscosity the smaller the contact angle and hydrophobic properties on the wane .

Abstract

Bioetanol is the altenative fuel from raw material plant that contains carbohydrate which is the sugarcane plant. The making of biooetanol from sugarcane plant done by the process of distillation. The process of distillation is how separation of liquid from its alloy based on difference in boiling point or based on the ability of a substance to evaporate. The process of distillation unit is referred to as a distillation column. Distillation columns can separate between ethanol and water. The research aims to know the influence of high columns against the resulting bioetanol levels on sugarcane juice. Result on measurement levels bioetanol for each variation of the height of the column is obtained as follows: for the column height of 0 (No column) there are levels of 35%, for the column height of 0,5 metres there are levels of 75%, for the column height of 1 metre there are levels of 86%, and for the column height of 2 metre there are levels of 87%. In this research founded high distillation column influence against the increasingly high levels of bioetanol distillation column which then levels will be higher because bioetanol in column a different pressure loss occurs and the rate of ethanol vapor

Abstract

Prototype digital multi-electrode automatic resistivity meter is a prototype that is used to measure ground resistivity with 16 electrodes based on the ohm law principle. By selecting four electrodes as a measuring point, then injecting voltage through the two current electrodes, the potential difference between the two electrodes can be detected. Current and voltage data obtained can determine the value of resistivity or soil resistivity. This research is a type of research and development that functions to develop existing products. From the results of the study, it can be stated four results consisting of internal testing results, product manufacturing results and initial field testing results or limited trials. The results of internal testing are looking at the characteristics of the current detection circuit, then testing the relay module and multiplexer module.

Abstract

The energy crisis is an old problem that has continued until today. Fuel Cell is one answer to solve the problem of this energy crisis. One type of fuel cell that is growing up now is the PEMFC (Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cell). The main components that play an important role in the PEMFC is the GDL (Gas Diffussion Layer). GDL important role in the electron transfer process, so the material must essentially activated carbon which has a high absorption. Activated carbon is commonly used CNT (Carbon Nano Tube) are hard to get and expensive. Peel cassava is one of the alternative carbon sources that can be processed into activated carbon. This study aims to determine the effect of carbonization temperature on the microstructure and the degree of crystallinity of activated carbon cassava peel. Variations carbonization temperature are 300 0C, 400 0C and 500 0C. Activated carbon microstructure characterization of cassava peel is done with SEM (Scanning Electron Microscopy), while the characterization of the degree of crystallinity is done by XRD (X-Ray Diffraction). The results showed that the size of the pores formed is still relatively macropore is greater than 0.5 micrometers, whereas the calculation of the degree of crystallinity for each of the various samples were 36.64%, 30.20% and 30.54%. Shell activated carbon potential of cassava as a raw material GDL is based on the degree of crystallinity, but still do not meet the standards based microstructures are formed

Abstract

Currently of materials used to package food and drink one of them is plastic. Along times, needs of plastics is increasing in many areas of life. The other, the use of plastic as a packaging material dealing with environmental issues, which can not be explained naturally by microbes in the soil. This leads to the buildup of plastic wastes that causes pollution and damage to the environment and also has a negative effect on human life. To reduce such problems, find solutions to make environmentally friendly plastics are biodegradable and do not spread pollution, the biodegradable plastic. Plastic biodegradable this study with the addition of corn sugar, 1g, 3g, 5g, 7 g and 9 g. Tests were carried out to obtain the value of flexural strength and degradation of biodegradable plastic water cassava starch as follows: corn sugar obtained without the addition of flexural strength kg/m2 8.81 x 103, 6.76 x tensile strength 103 kg/m2, 29.26% degradation. On the addition of 1g flexural strength obtained 19.03 x 103 kg/m2, tensile strength is 4.26 x 103 kg/m2, 11.88% degradation. On the addition of 21:26 flexural strength obtained 3g x 103 kg/m2, tensile strength is 2.82 x 103 kg/m2, 10:10% degradation.
