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.

Abstract

Cattle fattening has been done for generations, but partners want to increase its quality and quantity. Partners lack knowledge in the field of housing and feed that can be preserved, so they experience obstacles in fattening cattle. The group requested training and assistance regarding the requirements for housing for fattened bulls. Fattening bulls is a side business carried out by farmers in Kuwum village that must be preserved and maintained in each region to maintain local wisdom and the population of Bali cattle. The solution to the problems faced by partners involves applying previous research results from the proposers, which are already published, by providing appropriate technology for maintaining Bali cattle and preserving local wisdom through cattle farming. The method used is active community participation and exploration. This community service activity supports IKU 2, namely students gain experience outside the campus, and IKU 3, namely lecturers engage in activities outside the campus. The activity lasted for 10 months, involving 2 students by recognizing several courses.

Abstract

The utilization of rice straw waste as a renewable feedstock for bioethanol production presents an innovative approach to sustainable agricultural waste management and green energy development. This study aimed to evaluate the conversion process of rice straw into bioethanol through four main stages: material preparation, hydrolysis, fermentation, and distillation. One kilogram of dried rice straw was used as the primary substrate, enriched with 8% molasses and 5% Saccharomyces cerevisiae as the fermentative inoculum. Hydrolysis was conducted by boiling for 1 hour, resulting in 32.5 g/L of reducing sugars. Fermentation was performed at ambient temperature (±30°C) for 30 days, yielding an ethanol concentration of 65% (v/v) as measured by the pycnometer method, with a sugar conversion efficiency of 78%. Distillation at 78–80°C produced 250 mL of ethanol distillate from 1500 mL of fermented broth. The results indicate that rice straw has significant potential as a bioethanol feedstock, not only as an alternative renewable energy source but also as a natural solvent for applications in industries such as perfumery. This research highlights the importance of integrated rice straw valorization in reducing environmental pollution, enhancing economic value, and promoting the transition toward a circular and sustainable agricultural economy.

Abstract

Agricultural waste from banana petioles and midribs represents an underutilized lignocellulosic biomass, particularly in Bojonegoro Regency, East Java. This study aims to optimize the cellulose hydrolysis process from this waste into glucose using sulfuric acid as a catalyst via the Response Surface Methodology (RSM). This study used the most abundant banana variety in the area, the Kepok banana. The variables tested included temperature (70–110°C) and reaction time (20–100 minutes). The glucose content of the hydrolysis product was measured using a sugar refractometer. The glucose content data were then converted to per cent cellulose conversion, which served as the basis for the optimization process. The results showed that temperature and time significantly influenced glucose conversion, with optimal conditions at 110°C for 100 minutes. The optimization model demonstrated a good fit, with an R² value exceeding 0.95. This research confirms the potential of utilizing local banana petiole and midrib waste as a glucose source, providing a scientific basis for sustainable, large-scale production.

Abstract

This study aimed to determine the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of chitosan and coconut shell liquid smoke against S. aureus and E. coli cultures. The treatments consisted of varying concentrations of Chitosan (0%, 1%, 1.5%, 2%, and 2.5%) and liquid smoke (0%, 1%, 1.5%, 2%, and 2.5%) applied to S. aureus and E. coli cultures in vitro using nutrient broth medium. The bacterial populations were quantified after 24 hours of incubation at 37°C, with an initial concentration of 10? CFU/mL. The results indicated that both chitosan and coconut shell liquid smoke exhibited a stronger bactericidal effect against S. aureus than E. coli. The minimum inhibitory concentration of Chitosan against S. aureus was 1%, resulting in a reduction of 2.16 log cycles, whereas the MIC against E. coli was 2%, corresponding to a reduction of 1.47 log cycles. Meanwhile, the minimum inhibitory concentration of coconut shell liquid smoke against S. aureus was 1% (reducing 1.542 log cycles), and against E. coli was 1.5% (reducing 2.02 log cycles).

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the pattern of profit sharing in Balinese cattle and the factors that affect it. This study uses survey methods and interviews with Balinese cattle breeders and herders in Bali. The results of the study show that the commonly used profit-sharing patterns are the 50:50, 60:40, and 70:30 patterns for female cattle, which are rumoured through the Simantri pattern. Factors that affect the profit-sharing pattern are production costs, risks faced by each party, contributions made by each party, and the selling price of cattle. The study also demonstrates that a fair and transparent profit-sharing arrangement can enhance trust and cooperation between farmers and herders. The results of this study are expected to serve as a reference for farmers, herders, and policymakers in developing a more effective and efficient Balinese cattle farming business.

Abstract

Marbling refers to white fat granules within muscle fibres that enhance meat tenderness and flavour. This study aimed to determine the marbling score of male Bali beef using two methods: ultrasonography and visual assessment based on muscle location and storage duration. Five intensively raised male Bali cattle (average weight 227 kg) were examined. Visual assessment used 0.5 kg samples from sirloin, rib, and round muscles, analysed with ImageJ and Minitab 17. Results showed that both muscle location and storage duration significantly affected (P < 0.01) the marbling score. The ultrasonography method yielded marbling scores of 1.06–1.44, while the visual method produced 1.10–1.50. The ultrasonography method proved reliable for predicting marbling without slaughter, with higher marbling observed in passive muscles (sirloin) than in active muscles (rib and round).

Abstract

This research aims to evaluate the adsorption performance of activated carbon derived from sorghum bagasse through a two-step activation process involving both chemical and physical activation. The sorghum bagasse precursor was first chemically activated using potassium carbonate (K?CO?) as the activating agent, followed by physical activation at 800 °C under an inert atmosphere. The resulting activated carbon was characterized using Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) to examine its surface morphology. Adsorption experiments were subsequently conducted employing methylene blue as a model dye at various initial concentrations to determine the adsorption efficiency. The results revealed that the K?CO?-activated sorghum bagasse carbon exhibited excellent adsorption capability, achieving a removal rate of up to 99% for methylene blue. Overall, these findings demonstrate that sorghum bagasse has considerable potential as a sustainable and cost-effective precursor for producing high-quality activated carbon with outstanding dye adsorption performance.
