Abstract

Mining industry activities have a very high dependence on fuel consumption. This dependence on the use of fuel is because diesel fuel is the main energy source to drive vehicle activities in the mining industry. Fuel consumption of PT. Arutmin Indonesia Tambang Kintap is around 40% of production costs. Given this substantial fuel demand, improving fuel efficiency is crucial, making fuel-saving measures essential. One approach to reducing fuel consumption involves adding bio-additives to enhance the fuel combustion process. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of adding Grinzest bio additives to the fuel used by heavy machinery at PT. Arutmin Indonesia Tambang Kintap. The research steps include: (1) characterization of the fuel and bio additives; (2) blending fuel with Grinzest bio additives; (3) characterization of BBM-Grinzest blending; (4) testing the performance of Grinzest bioadditives on heavy machinery. The results of the study showed that Grinzest bio additives were able to reduce fuel consumption, reduce gas emission levels, and prevent rust (deposits) on the engine. The results of tests conducted by the team in the field showed that the addition of bioadditives to fuel with a ratio of 1:1000 showed a decrease in fuel consumption of around 7.4%.

Abstract

Bacterial cellulose (BC) is a biopolymer resulting from sugar fermentation by exopolysaccharide-producing bacteria. BC production can be done using various agricultural and industrial wastes as raw materials. This makes BC one of the leading choices for green technology. BC produced from coconut water fermentation is known as nata de coco. Nata de coco has several superior properties, including high purity, crystallinity, chemical stability, heat resistance, good water retention capacity, mechanical properties, and biocompatibility. The unique properties of BC allow its application as a support and stabilizer for silver nanoparticles in composite form. The synthesis of silver nanoparticle composites in bacterial cellulose can be done using an environmentally friendly method. In this study, BC was produced from the fermentation of coconut water waste by Acetobacter xylinum bacteria. The characteristics of the resulting BC were studied, including thickness, Water Retention Capacity (WRC), cellulose content, yield, and swelling properties. In addition, the resulting BC is utilized as a support and stabilizer for forming silver nanoparticles. The presence of silver nanoparticles in the BC structure was analyzed using a Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) and Energy-Dispersive X-ray (EDX). The analysis results showed that the silver content was 22.20% in the BC structure with a fermentation time of 3 days, and 15.52% in BC with a fermentation time of 5 days.

Abstract

ABSTRACT Research has been carried out on the elimination of manganese interference with EDTA masking in the determination of nickel and lead in pyrolusite using Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometry (AAS) with an air-acetylene flame. Dissolution of pyrolusite samples was carried out by wet digestion using aqueous regia and HF solutions with a ratio of 3:4 (v/v). Interference studies were carried out on the absorbance of nickel and lead with the addition of manganese with varying concentrations of 100-5000 μg/mL measured at a wavelength of 232.0 nm and a gap width of 0.2 nm for nickel and a wavelength of 283.3 nm and a gap width of 0.7 nm for lead. The analysis results show that manganese at a concentration of 100-5000 μg/mL can interfere with the absorbance of nickel and lead, where the absorbance of nickel and lead increases. Recovery results (Recovery) of nickel, lead and manganese with masking 0.10 M EDTA and extracting nickel, lead and manganese into chloroform with sodium diethyl dithiocarbamate complexing at pH 2 obtained nickel (85.39%), lead (92.63%) and manganese (0.00%). nickel and lead pyrolusite samples before extraction with an average nickel and lead content of 1817.82 ± 9.42 μg/g and 122.81 ± 7.60 μg/g. The nickel and lead content after manganese interference was removed by EDTA 0 masking .1 M at pH 2 and complexed with DDC in chloroform obtained an average content of 1571.32 ± 7.54 μg/g for nickel and 87.65 ± 7.53 μg for lead. Key words: Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometry, Interference, masking EDTA, Extraction, Nickel and Lead.

Abstract

The vast quantities of rice straw residue generated every year present both a challenge and an opportunity. To address the challenge, this work took the opportunity by transforming rice straw waste into eco-friendly silica gel. Synthesis of rice straw-based silica gel was via sol-gel method with the calcination temperature of 700 oC for 2 h and the addition of sodium hydroxide 2 molar. Characteristics of silica gel and its raw material have been investigated using several techniques such as FTIR, XRD, SEM, and BET surface area. The synthesized silica gel showed obvious peaks of Si-O-Si and O-H, aggregated smaller particles, crystal nature, and high surface area. This innovative work contributes to agricultural waste management and the circular economy for a sustainable future.

Abstract

Indonesia is an archipelagic country with an ocean area wider than land. Indonesia's ocean areas contain many maritime activities, one of which is shipping and trade. This activity causes a lot of domestic and foreign transportation to pass through Indonesia's maritime areas. It is not uncommon for domestic and international sea transportation to discharge exhaust emissions from their fuel onto the sea surface, causing marine damage. This article was created with the aim of summarizing previous research to make it easier for readers and to find out the appropriate types of maritime chemical fuels, combustion and exhaust emissions, as well as reducing pollution from combustion. The review of studies uses a comparative approach, collecting sources from Google Scholar and PubMed databases, as well as national and international publications. The research results show that liquefied natural gas (LNG) and hydrogen are good candidates to replace chemical fuels because they are both sulfur-free.

Abstract

With the increasing industrial and transportation activities, the demand for lubricating oil is increasing every year. Lubricating oil is used to reduce friction and wear on frictional engine components. Over time, lubricating oil becomes inefficient and needs to be replaced with new oil. To enhance the efficiency of petroleum use and reduce environmental pollution, used lubricants need to be recycled. One method of improving the quality of used lubricants is by absorbing heavy metal contaminants using activated carbon from palm kernel shells. The efficiency of activated carbon adsorption as an adsorbent for heavy metals in used lubricants was observed by varying the adsorption parameters of contact time, adsorbent mass, and sample volume. In this study, the absorption of several heavy metals, including iron (Fe), lead (Pb), and zinc (Zn), was investigated. Analysis of the absorption results was performed using AAS, FTIR, XRD, and XRF. The results showed that the absorption of metals in used lubricants using activated carbon from palm kernel shells with optimum parameters can absorb 90% of Fe, Pb, and Zn metals. The optimum contact time for each metal adsorption was 3 hours, with an adsorbent mass of 0.75 grams and a sample volume of 5 mL. Analysis of used lubricants before and after adsorption using FTIR indicated a shift in wave numbers, indicating an adsorption process.

Abstract

Biodiesel is a renewable energy source that has great potential as an alternative fuel to replace fossil diesel in diesel engines. The potential of feedstock from non-edible oils for biodiesel is being considered with the aim of biodiesel production without negatively impacting food issues. Nyamplung oil is a type of non-edible oil in nature that can be used as a source for biodiesel esterification. This research aims to produce methyl ester from nyamplung oil using Zirconia-embedded natural zeolite catalyst (ZrO2/natural zeolite). The catalyst used was prepared from natural zeolite by impregnation method. The results showed that the free fatty acid conversion was obtained at 89.0% which was achieved at a temperature of 60°C in 80 minutes, a catalyst concentration of 5% wt. of the oil, and a molar ratio of methanol to oil at 9:1 for biodiesel production. The results of this study indicate that ZrO2/natural zeolite catalyst is used to produce biodiesel from nyamplung oil.
