Abstract

The challenges associated with manual irrigation systems, which require significant labor and time, highlight the need for the development of an energy-efficient and environmentally friendly automatic liquid spraying system. This study aims to design and evaluate an automatic sprayer pump system based on a microcontroller (Arduino Mega 2560) powered by a solar panel. The system is controlled using a PS2 joystick remote and utilizes an ultrasonic sensor to monitor the fluid level in the tank. Test results show that the system can operate effectively within a remote control range of up to 30 meters, and the ultrasonic sensor exhibited an average error rate of only 3.22%. Charging with an 80 WP solar panel takes approximately 5 hours to produce 400 Wh of energy. The pump is capable of operating for up to 30 minutes before the battery voltage drops to 11.1 V. With a total energy consumption of 400 Wh, this system is feasible for use in small-scale farming and remote areas.

Abstract

Sleep disorders are increasingly recognized as critical public health concerns, particularly among working populations where occupational stress, lifestyle factors, and physiological imbalances intersect. This study explores the predictive capacity of machine learning models, including Random Forest, Support Vector Machine (SVM), and XGBoost to identify sleep disorders (None, Insomnia, and Sleep Apnea) using a dataset comprising demographic, occupational, lifestyle, and physiological variables. The dataset, drawn from 400 individuals, was preprocessed through normalization, one-hot encoding, and SMOTE to address class imbalance. Feature selection was conducted using correlation analysis, RFE, and Random Forest importance scores. Models were trained with stratified sampling and optimized using 5-fold cross-validation. XGBoost outperformed the others with an accuracy of 0.90 and an F1-score of 0.88, followed by Random Forest (0.875, 0.86), while SVM lagged (0.825, 0.71). Confusion matrix analysis revealed consistent misclassification between Insomnia and Sleep Apnea, reflecting overlapping symptomatology and low feature correlation. Occupational analysis showed that manual laborers exhibited higher stress levels and shorter sleep durations, particularly those with insomnia. These findings highlight the value of integrating occupational and physiological data into predictive modeling and underscore the potential of ensemble learning methods in health informatics. This study supports the development of early detection systems for sleep disorders tailored to occupational risk profiles.

Abstract

The accumulation of market waste and coconut shells poses a significant environmental challenge, necessitating effective management strategies by both local governments and academic institutions. This study explores the conversion of organic market waste into Refuse-Derived Fuel (RDF) through a dry fermentation (peuyeumization) process using 5% EM4 bio-activator over a 21-day incubation period. Concurrently, coconut shells were carbonized to produce high-carbon Coconut Shell Charcoal (CSC). Both RDF and CSC, ground to a 100-mesh particle size, were utilized to produce cylindrical bio-briquettes (7 cm height, 3.6 cm outer diameter, 1.6 cm inner diameter) using a compaction method. Various RDF:CSC ratios (0:100, 25:75, 50:50, 75:25, and 100:0) were tested with three concentrations of tapioca starch adhesive (6%, 8%, and 10%). The quality of the resulting briquettes was evaluated based on the Indonesian National Standard (SNI 01-6235-2000), assessing parameters such as moisture content, ash content, density, fixed carbon content, and calorific value. Combustion characteristics were further examined through ignition time and combustion rate measurements. The optimal briquette was produced at a 25:75 RDF:CSC ratio with 6% adhesive, achieving a weight of 30 g, density of 0.46 g/mL, fixed carbon content of 75.51%, moisture content of 5.25%, ash content of 5.91%, calorific value of 6117.38 cal/g, ignition time of 63.78 minutes, and combustion rate of 1.55 g/min. These findings indicate that the bio-briquettes meet the calorific standard of young coal, supporting their potential use as an environmentally friendly alternative fuel.

Abstract

The beauty and personal care industry generates wastewater that poses a potential threat to the environment if not properly treated. As a small-scale industry, there is a need for an efficient wastewater treatment technology that requires minimal cost and land area. This study aims to analyze the characteristics of wastewater from the industry and evaluate the effectiveness of coagulation and flocculation processes in reducing pollutant levels. The jar test method was employed using varying doses of coagulant (PAC) and flocculant (anionic polymer) at concentrations of 60, 80, and 100 ppm for PAC, and 1–3 ppm for the polymer. Initial test results indicated that the parameters for TDS, TSS, pH, EC, and turbidity did not meet the effluent quality standards set by the Indonesian Ministry of Environment Regulation No. 5 of 2014. The optimum dosage was found to be 80 ppm PAC combined with 3 ppm anionic polymer, which reduced TSS from 1482 mg/L to 83 mg/L and turbidity from 3120 NTU to 20 NTU. The best reduction in EC was achieved with 100 ppm PAC and 3 ppm polymer, lowering EC from 3210 µS/cm to 399 µS/cm. All parameters, except for TDS, complied with the established effluent quality standards.

Abstract

Traditional gold mining activities in Tambang Sawah Village, Lebong Regency, Bengkulu Province, produce tailings waste with high concentrations of mercury (Hg). This waste is discharged directly into the Air Putih River without prior treatment. This research aims to measure mercury levels in the tailings and analyze the relationship between the quantity of discarded tailings and the Hg contamination levels in river sediments. Sampling was conducted following the JPHA method, and Hg level analysis was based on NOAA and ASTM guidelines. The results indicate that all tailings samples from 10 discharge points exceeded the mercury contamination threshold. The total estimated tailings discharged each week reached 1,600 kg from 40 miners. The highest concentrations were found at points with the most miners. A laboratory test on 10 tailing samples collected from discharge points along the Air Putih River showed that all samples contained mercury (Hg), with the highest concentration reaching up to 266 ppm.

Abstract

Small-sized fire fighting vehicles such as the three-wheeled Viar are a practical solution for reaching narrow and dense locations. This study aims to compare the water pump engine based on the discharge generated when using two types of fuel, namely Pertalite and LPG gas, in the design of the three-wheeled Viar Fire Fighting System. The main focus of the research is on how much water discharge can be generated and how the operational cost efficiency of each fuel. The method used is direct experimentation, where the pump is run at a fixed engine speed of 2400 RPM. The volume of water pumped is measured at a certain duration to obtain the discharge value. In addition, the fuel consumption was analyzed and the cost incurred in one pump cycle was calculated. In order for the LPG test to run optimally, the carburetor was modified to adjust the characteristics of the gas fuel.

Abstract

The problem of conventional plastic waste, which if difficult to decompose process a serious threat to the environment. As a solution, this study aims to produce biodegradable plastic made from cassava starch (Manihot esculenta) and eggshell powder, with glycerol as a plasticizer.  The addition of eggshell powder is intended to improve the mechanical properties of the plastic. Samples were prepared using varying amounts of glycerol (2; 2.5; 3.5; 3; 3.5; 4 mL) and eggshell powder (0.3; 0.6; 0.9; 1.2; 1.5 grams). The plastic was tested for biodegradability, tensile strength, functional group analysis (FT-IR), and surface morphology (SEM). The result showed that the sample with 0.3 grams of eggshell powder and 4 mL of glycerol had the highest biodegradation rate (98.94% within two days). The highest tensile strength (22.99 MPa) was achieved with 1.5 grams of eggshell powder and 4 mL of glycerol. FT-IR analysis identified the presence of carbonate, hydroxyl, carbonyl, and ester groups, while SEM observations revealed a surface morphology that was not fully homogeneous due to uneven particle dispersion. Overall, the resulting plastic meets the Indonesian National Standard (SNI) 7818:2016, particularly in terms of biodegradability.
