Abstract

Indonesia continues to face health problems caused by micronutrient deficiencies, which can trigger stunting. One effort to address this issue is nutritional intervention through the substitution of staple food ingredients with more nutrient-dense sources, such as fettuccini pasta made from wheat flour substituted with pumpkin flour and chicken liver. Pumpkin contains essential minerals such as Ca and Fe, while chicken liver is rich in Fe and Mg. This study aimed to produce fettuccini pasta with pumpkin flour and chicken liver substitution that meets good physicochemical and organoleptic quality. The research was conducted experimentally using a Completely Randomized Design with a factorial pattern consisting of two factors: flour proportion and egg concentration. The first factor included three levels of wheat flour:tapioca: pumpkin flour:chicken liver flour proportions (80%:10%:5%:5%, 70%:10%:10%:10%, and 60%:10%:15%:15%), while the second factor was egg concentration (10%, 15%, and 20%), each with two replications. The parameters analyzed were moisture, ash, protein, fat, carbohydrate, amylose, starch, tensile strength, water absorption, and organoleptic properties. The results showed that the best product was obtained from the treatment with flour proportion 80%:10%:5%:5% and egg concentration of 15%. This product contained 13.02% moisture, 0.99% ash, 12.13% protein, 2.25% fat, 71.62% carbohydrate, 13.94% amylose, 51.27% starch, 0.56 N/mm² tensile strength, and 48.58% water absorption. Organoleptic tests indicated scores of 3.38 for color, 3.19 for aroma, 3.03 for taste, and 3.76 for texture (all in the “slightly like” category). The best treatment also contained Fe 5.24 mg, Mg 14.4 mg, Zn 3.57 mg, and Ca 10.5 mg per 100 g.

Abstract

This community service activity is part of the BINTANG PERTIWI Program (Empowering Climate-Friendly and Innovative Agriculture Villages), implemented by PT Pertamina EP Sangatta Field in Pinang Raya Village, South Sangatta District, East Kutai Regency. The main challenge faced by farmers in this area is the high cost of agricultural production, largely due to their dependence on chemical fertilisers and pesticides, as well as the underutilization of abundant organic waste, particularly tree branches that are often burned, resulting in air pollution and an increased risk of land fires. The innovative solution introduced is the management of tree branch waste through a pyrolysis process to produce grade-3 liquid smoke, which is then used as an eco-friendly bio-pesticide. The activities were carried out through awareness campaigns, technical training, mentoring, and continuous monitoring and evaluation. The program results show pesticide cost savings of approximately Rp600,000 per year, improved community awareness in waste management, and strengthened farmer group capacity in adopting semi-organic farming practices. The program not only has economic benefits but also contributes to mitigating land fire risks and fostering a more sustainable environment. These findings demonstrate that social innovations based on local potential can be replicated in other regions to support sustainable agriculture.

Abstract

Steelmaking processes generate large amounts of slag waste that contain silica, which can be recovered and converted into valuable products. In this study, silica (SiO?) was extracted from steel slag waste through alkaline extraction using sodium hydroxide (NaOH) followed by acid precipitation. The experimental parameters included NaOH concentrations of 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, and 2.5 M, and extraction temperatures of 60, 70, 80, 90, and 100 °C. Each extraction was carried out for 60 minutes with continuous stirring at 300 rpm. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis confirmed that the product exhibited a broad peak at 2? around 20–30°, which is characteristic of amorphous silica. The results indicated that both NaOH concentration and temperature had a positive correlation with silica yield. As the NaOH concentration and extraction temperature increased, the percentage of extracted silica also increased. The optimum condition was achieved at 100 °C and 2.5 M NaOH, yielding silica with a purity of 91.10%. These findings highlight the potential of utilising steel slag waste as a low-cost raw material for producing amorphous silica. Furthermore, the process demonstrates a sustainable approach to waste valorization while providing high-purity silica for potential applications in industrial materials, adsorbents, and nanotechnology.

Abstract

The Tato Macan Program (Taman TOGA Makin Cantik) is part of Prokesmas Puja, an integrated community health initiative. It focuses on improving health and economic resilience by making better use of Family Medicinal Gardens (TOGA).The program was created to address two key issues: idle land that was not being utilised productively and the need for additional nutrition for tuberculosis patients and children at risk of stunted growth. Activities include transforming unused land into TOGA demo gardens, training health cadres and local people to cultivate and process herbal plants, and creating value-added products such as herbal teas, packaged jamu, and moringa chips.In line with circular economy principles, the program also promotes composting organic waste and using biogas to support production. These efforts have led to the development of stronger skills among health cadres and community members, the growth of model TOGA gardens, and the establishment of new micro-enterprises specialising in herbal products. Families benefit directly through extra income and reduced household expenses.Beyond its local impact, Tato Macan has inspired other communities through knowledge sharing, helping the program spread more widely. In short, it contributes to health by offering functional foods, to society by empowering cadres, and to the economy by diversifying community businesses.

Abstract

Used cooking oil is a household waste often thrown away, which can damage the environment and endanger health. This community service activity was carried out in Kemiri Village to educate young people about using used cooking oil to make environmentally friendly aromatherapy candles. The method used was interactive discussion and direct presentation so that participants not only understood the theory but were also able to spread the candle-making independently. The activity results indicated that participants were highly enthusiastic and actively engaged in the discussion. In addition to increasing awareness of the value of waste management, this activity created chances for small businesses based on recycled goods to grow. We expect this education, which uses household waste, to inspire the village youth to be more environmentally conscious and creative.

Abstract

Pumpkin is one of the agricultural commodities with potential as a functional food ingredient, supported by its nutritional value and availability. Many studies have been conducted on pumpkin, including its nutritional composition, bioactive carotenoid compounds, sustainable agricultural cultivation, waste management, and utilisation as a functional food.  However, a bibliometric analysis of the agricultural potential of pumpkin has never been conducted. This study aims to map research trends on pumpkin and its potential as an agricultural commodity in the last 25 years (2000-2025). Research data were obtained from the ScienceDirect database and visualised using VOSviewer. The data visualisation showed that pumpkin is closely related to carotenoids, its main bioactive compounds. In addition, pumpkin has been associated with grafting techniques widely used in cucurbitaceae, especially in cucumber and watermelon. The most recent research on pumpkin focuses on pumpkin analogue rice, sensory analysis, and metabolomics. By visualizing the agricultural potential of pumpkin, the trend and development over time can be clearly seen. This visualisation can serve as a reference for researchers to identify the research gap in pumpkin and its future potential.

Abstract

Groundwater from dug wells is an important source for rural communities, but it often contains contaminants that exceed quality standards. One of the main problems is the high levels of iron (Fe) and manganese (Mn), which degrade water quality and pose health risks. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of the aeration process in reducing Fe and Mn levels in contaminated well water. The experiment was conducted using a 20 L aeration tank with a contact time of 120 minutes. The water samples were analysed in an accredited laboratory before and after treatment. The results showed that aeration reduced Fe concentration from 1.03 mg/L to 0.50 mg/L (51% removal efficiency) and Mn from 5.86 mg/L to 1.85 mg/L (68% removal efficiency). Although the reductions were significant, the final concentrations of Fe and Mn still exceeded the quality standards set by Indonesian Ministry of Health Regulation No. 2 of 2023 (Fe = 0.2 mg/L; Mn = 0.1 mg/L). These findings indicate that aeration is effective as a low-cost and straightforward pretreatment for healthy water, but additional processes such as filtration or adsorption are required to achieve safe drinking water quality.

Abstract

Biogas is a renewable energy source with great potential to replace fossil fuels; however, the presence of CO? and H?S reduces its quality and combustion efficiency, making purification necessary. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of CO? absorption using Bittern and alkaline solutions (3N KOH, 3N NaOH) with absorbent volumes ranging from 600 to 1000 ml. The absorption process was carried out in a bubble column, and the gas composition was analyzed using an Orsat apparatus and titration method. The results indicated that increasing absorbent volume reduced CO? concentration to 10–15% and H?S to below 1.2%, while increasing CH? content to more than 80%, in accordance with SNI 8019:2014 biogas standards. Stepwise absorption (Bittern–KOH/NaOH) was more effective than single absorbents, yielding up to 87% CH? and reducing CO? to 10%. XRF analysis of the precipitate showed calcium (84.58%) and magnesium (14%) dominance, confirming carbonate and sulfate precipitation. These findings demonstrate that Bittern and alkaline solutions are effective absorbents for biogas purification, with stepwise absorption providing the most optimal improvement in biogas quality.
