Abstract

Crude palm oil (CPO) is the richest natural source of carotenoids which gives the reddish-orange color in crude palm oil. The reddish color in unprocessed palm oil is disliked by consumer. This research is aimed to adsorb the β–carotene from the CPO using activated carbon, then the kinetics, isotherm models and thermodynamics data of the adsorption process were obtained. The main materials used in this research were CPO and activated carbon. The observed parameters were final concentration and the amounts of adsorbed β–carotene in activated carbon. The adsorption process was conducted by mixing the adsorbent with CPO with the variation of adsorbent: CPO (w/w) ratio = 1 : 3; 1 : 4; 1 : 5 and 1 : 6 with mixing speed 120 rpm and the temperature of 40, 50 and 60 oC. The sample of CPO and activated carbon was analyzed at every 2 minutes until the equilibrium was achieved. The final concentration of the unadsorbed β–carotene was analyzed using UV-Vis spectrophotometer. The results showed that the more CPO used in the process, the lower the adsorption percentage. The higher the adsorption temperature, the higher adsorption percentage. Moreover, the maximum adsorption percentage was 95.108% obtained at ratio 1 : 3 and T = 60 oC. The adsorption isotherm model which fit with the β–carotene adsorption at T = 60 oC was Langmuir model with the correlation coefficient of 0.959. The adsorption kinetics model which fit with the β–carotene adsorption was the second order kinetics model with the correlation coefficient of 0.998. The value of free energy Gibbs (ΔG) = -24,482.484 ; -24,708.059 and -24,933.634 J/mol for each temperature respectively, value of entropy changes (ΔS) = 22.557 J/mol K, and value of enthalpy changes (ΔH) = -17,421.987 J/mol.

Abstract

Esterification is one method that is often used in converting glycerol. Glycerol tribenzoate is a derivative product of glycerol which used as a plasticizer for polymer industry, food additives, water repellent material on printer ink, and many more. This research aims to study the making of glycerol tribenzoate through esterification process by using natural zeolit catalyst which is activated with hydrochloric acid, in order to obtain the optimum catalyst % weight (w/w glycerol), and also to see the potential of recycling the zeolit. Zeolit is activated by 4M for 6 hours, and then calcined in the furnace at 500 oC for 5 hours. Then continued to esterification process, glycerol 90% reacted with benzoic acid which dissolved in metanol, with mole ratio of benzoic acid and glycerol at 3,5:1, reaction temperature at 65 oC, and the stirrer speed of 200 rpm, the catalyst % weight is varied at 5 %, 6%, 7%, and 8%, and catalyst recycling is performed 3 times. FTIR characterization result a close match, shows that the product is glycerol tribenzoate. The highest yield of zeolite which activated by HCl is obtained at 6% catalyst % weight i.e 68,992%, while zeolite that activated by H2SO4 is obtained at 8% catalyst % weight i.e 69,678%, H- zeolit catalyst is still feasible to use up to 3 times recycling, with percent of yield reduction for each recycle is ≤ 8%.

Abstract

Coconut oil combustion characteristic is observed experimentally by evaporating oil in the boiler then mix it with air before being burned at various equivalence ratios in the Hele-shaw cell. The result shows that, coconut oil tends to break into glycerol and fatty acid due to hydrolysis reaction producing the flame propagation, where the fatty acid flame propagates first then glycerol flame. Micro-explosion occurs when moisture from fatty acid combustion is absorbed by glycerol, and higher heating due to higher flame speed produces more micro-explosion.

Abstract

This research was aimed to study the effect of feed and solvent ratio (f/s), antisolvent variety and solvent variety to the extraction of lycopene from tomato (Lycopersicum esculentum)by using single solvent and antisolvent crystalization method. The solvent that used was hexane and ethyl acetate and also methanol and ethanol as the antisolvent. Tomatoes was milled and then extracted. Antisolvent then added to the extract which was obtained. The results show that the more feed and solvent ratio (f/s) the more lycopene obtained. At the ratio of 1:4,5 with hexane as the solvent obtained the highest lycopene yield were 2,7 mg/150 ml and 2,2 mg/150 ml. Whereas at the ratio of 1:4,5 with ethyl acetate as the solvent obtained the highest lycopene yield were 3,2 mg/150 ml dan 2,8 mg/150 ml. By using methanol as an antisolvent, much lycopene would be obtained. By using ethyl acetate as a solvent, much lycopene would be obtained.

Abstract

This research aims to determine the effect of palm oil empty fruit bunches (POEFB) powder and silica into the matrix of unsaturated polyester resin (UPR) and the influence of chemical modification OPEFB with using acetic acid 50% (v / v). In this study, (UPR) was mixed with silica and OPEFB to weight ratio (UPR: Silica: OPEFB) 80: 20: 0, 80: 15: 5, 80: 10: 10, 80: 5: 15, 80: 0: 20 by hand lay-up method. Analysis was done by impact test, and analysis of scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Results showed that impact strength at a ratio of 80: 5: 15 was higher than those without modification viz. 3622.5 J / m2. In this case the chemical modification has lowered OPEFB polarity so that the interfacial tencion between the filler with a matrix became low resulting in good interfacial interaction and adhesion between matrix and fille. Impact strength values ​​were supported by the results of SEM. From water adsorption test, composite with chemical modification showed low values as compared without modification indicating that modification has lowered the polarity of OPEFB.
