Abstract

One of the economic sectors that is able to provide a significant increase in Indonesia's economic growth is MSMEs, which operate in the creative industry sector. On the other hand, MSMEs are a business sector that is often faced with uncertainty. One of the batik MSMEs in Pekalongan was forced to face post-disruption effects such as a pandemic, which had an impact on decreasing demand and increasing supply. Therefore, strategies are needed to remain competitive in the market, one of which is inventory management. The EOQ model is used in this research to minimize raw material inventory costs by determining the economical order quantity (Q) in one of the Pekalongan batik industries. The results of this research provide a concrete reference for MSMEs to plan their supply of fabric raw materials, starting from determining order frequency, reorder points, and safety stock. The optimal order quantity for MSME raw materials is 10,189 meters, with an order frequency of 35 times in the planning horizon. The safety stock level that must be prepared is 3,988 meters, and the reorder point is 6,362 meters to meet demand during lead time. Through the proposed inventory planning, MSMEs can save inventory costs and allocate resources for other purposes.

The construction area is the area that has the most sources of danger. UPN "Veteran" East Java is currently constructing several buildings, such as the addition of lecture halls or the construction of laboratories. The density of the campus area with thousands of students around the construction project makes the risk of danger high. Several cases of students slipping and tripping in the construction area due to scattered building materials, making the application of safety signs need to be considered. This study aims to determine how necessary safety signs are for work safety on the UPN "Veteran" East Java construction project. Where the population used in this activity is students with a sample size of 30 people. The methods used are statistical methods of the ANOVA test, Ergonomic Checklist, and Questionnaire of understanding of safety signs. The results of data processing concluded that the application of OHS signs is needed, especially signs of danger of falling goods, tripping warnings, slipping warnings, and slippery floor warnings

Abstract

Struvite is a white crystal chemically known as magnesium ammonium phosphorus hexahydrate (MgNH4PO4.6H2O). This mineral has a hardness of 1.5 to 2 Mohs. Struvite is easily soluble under acidic conditions and slightly soluble under neutral and alkaline conditions. In industry, struvite is found in the crust of pipes through which hot fluids pass. Struvite is often used as fertilizer because of its phosphate content. The formation of struvite minerals (hereinafter MAP) from laundry waste water is carried out using an aeration tank. MAP solution is made by reacting laundry waste water with Phosphoric Acid (H3PO4) and Ammonium Hydroxide (NH4OH). The MAP ratio was set at 1:1:1 with a temperature of 20 - 40 oC and an air flow rate of 0.5 - 1.5 liters per minute. The best results were at a temperature of 25oC with an air flow rate of 1 (Liter / minute) with a magnesium content of 10% and phosphorus of 42%.

Abstract

This paper discusses the development of a simple refrigeration system that utilizes a PSU (Power Supply Unit), Peltier TEC1-12706 module, axial fan, and heatsink. This system is designed to provide an efficient solution for cooling limited spaces or electronic devices at an affordable cost. The PSU is used as the main electrical power source, while the Peltier module functions as the main cooling element that utilizes the thermoelectric effect. An axial fan is integrated to improve heat transfer, increase cooling efficiency, and maintain operational temperatures at desired levels. Heatsinks are used as an addition to the heat absorption and distribution process, ensuring optimal system performance. This research involves experimental testing to measure the system's ability to reduce temperatures and maintain operational stability. The experimental results show that data was obtained from the 5th minute to the 30th minute. The average temperature was 18.54˚C in the 5th minute, 16˚C in the 10th minute, 14.88˚C in the 15th minute, 14.88˚C in the 10th minute. in the 20th minute it was 14.34˚C, in the 25th minute it was 14˚C, and in the 30th minute it was 13.78˚C and obtained a maximum COP value of 0.702 and actual COP 0.212. This research contributes to the development of efficient and affordable cooling technology by utilizing components that are easy to access and apply.

Abstract

This study investigates the performance of Peltier modules, commonly used in portable refrigeration, through the lens of Coefficient of Performance (COP). A portable cooler is constructed using a Styrofoam box, a Peltier module, a heatsink, and a fan. The experiment involves powering the system and recording temperatures on both the cold and hot sides at specific intervals over a 30-minute period.The collected temperature data is then utilized to calculate the COP, a metric that quantifies the system's efficiency by comparing the cooling effect (heat removed) to the electrical energy consumption. This analysis provides valuable insights into the effectiveness of Peltier technology in portable refrigeration applications.The 30-minute timeframe offers a focused case study, allowing for a controlled investigation of the system's performance under steady-state conditions. The study can be further expanded by exploring COP variations at different ambient temperatures, offering a more comprehensive understanding of the system's capabilities in diverse environments.This research contributes to the ongoing exploration of Peltier technology in portable cooling, providing valuable data for optimizing efficiency and design considerations in this growing sector.
