Abstract

This research aims to analyze the material flow of solid waste of Banda Aceh city by using Material Flow Analysis (MFA) method. The domestic wastes used in this research are limited to organic waste, plastic and paper. Results show that the solid wastes in Banda Aceh city do not treated well and thus required further treatment process. Wastes are separated at the kampong Jawa waste treatment process. Leaves waste are treated for compost, while no treatment process for plastic and paper wastes. The percentage of organic wastes, paper and plastic produced from Banda Aceh city were 89,1 %; 2,5 %; 0,74 %, respectively. Total amount of waste in the city of Banda Aceh is 86057,64 t/month producing carbon emission of 83726,6 t/month.

Abstract

The aim of this research was to determine the effects of filler loading and pressure of hot press on tensile strength of zinc oxide (ZnO) filled polyester composites. The Composites were prepared by using polyester as the matrix, methyl ethyl ketone peroxide (MEKPO) as the catalyst. The composites were filled by the zinc oxide at 0%; 1%; 3%; 5%; and 7% were molded by hot press with pressure variation of 50 psi, 75 psi, 100 psi, 125 psi and 150 psi. Composites have been molded, then tested for the characteristics Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) and tests of tensile strength. The best result of tensile strength, impact and flexural were found on the addition of 3% ZnO at a pressure of 150 psi with a tensile strength of 54 MPa. SEM characterization showed a rougher surface is breaking up on the addition of 3% ZnO at a pressure of 150 psi because had a good wetting between matrix and filler ZnO.

Abstract

This study was aimed to discover the effectiveness of tamarind seeds as adsorbent for the reduction of PV (Peroxide Value) in CPO (Crude Palm Oil) at the best adsorbent dose and contact time. Materials used were CPO, tamarind seeds, nitric acid, and distilled water. Variables observed were adsorbent : nitric acid ratio and oven temperature in adsorbent activation process, and contact time and adsorbent dose in adsorption process. This study was began with adsorbent modification, where the cleaced and crushed tamarind seeds to pass through 140 mesh were activated with 4 N nitric acid at 1:1, 1:2, 1:3 and 1:4 of adsorbent : nitric acid ratio while heated at 80 oC for 2 hours. Adsorbent was then dried in oven at 110 oC, 120 oC, 130 oC and 140 oC. Adsorbent with the higher iodine number was used in adsorption process that was carried out by heating 100 grams of CPO on hot plate at 90 oC with 1000 rpm of stirring speed, and followed by adsorbent addition of 0.5 %, 1,0 %, and 1,5 % (of CPO used) and 25, 35, and 45 minutes of contact time, and after that oil was filtered using vacuum pump. The study results showed that the best ratio of adsorbent : nitric acid 4 N was 1:2 at 130 oC of oven temperature with 511.773 mg/g of iodine number. The best adsorbent dose was 1.0 % at 35 minutes of contact time that gave higher reduction of PV with peroxide value of 0,00868 meq/kg with the reduction percentage was 39,72 %. This study showed that nitcic acid-activated adsorbent from tamarind seeds was effective to reduce PV in CPO.

Abstract

The use of appropriate anti-microbial compounds can extend the shelf life of a product as well as ensure the safety of the product. That requires a material that is naturally anti-microbial so as not harmful to health. The use of chitosan to inhibit microbial activity on mackerel (Rastrelliger sp) and catfish (Clarias batrachus) to test it's effectiveness. In this research chitosan that used as an anti-microbial extracted from the shells of crabs (Portunus sanginolentus L.). Chitin and chitosan that were successfully extracted were characterized it's results includes moisture content testing, ash content, and degrees of deacetylation. Characterized chitosan, were used as an anti-microbial mackerel (Rastrelliger sp) and catfish (Clarias batrachus). Chitosan was dissolved in 1% acetic acid with varying concentrations of chitosan as 1%, 1.5%, 2%, and 2.5%. The storage time of fish: 0 hours, 10 hours, 15 hours, 20 hours, and 25 hours. The results of research chitosan form as granules / powder, 5% moisture content, ash content 2% and the degree of deacetylation which amounted to 61,08%. Chitosan solution test results on fish showed that fish preservation by soaking with chitosan addition of 1.5% was the best variable and could extend the shelf life of fish more than 5 hours while fish preservation by spraying gave the best variable with addition of chitosan 2.5% and could extend the shelf life of fish less than 5 hours.

Mono and diacylglycerol is one of oil diversification products that its economics value is higher and its market prospect is brighter in this globalization era. The purpose of this research is to produce mono and diacylglycerol from Refined, Bleached, Deodorized Palm Oil by using waste egg shell as catalyst. Waste egg shell was calcined at temperatur 70oC and time 2 hours to forming active CaO as catalyst. Then the process continued with glycerolysis process. Glycerolysis process produced mono and diacylglyserol. Then mono and diacylglycerol was separated by using separator fannel. Then the upper layer was vaporated to separate mono and diacylglycerol from tert-butanol. Effect of various varible process such as amount of catalyst and glycerolysis time was observed in this research. The best result was at temperature 70oC, co-solvent and oil rasio 3:1 (v/b), reaction time 2 hours, and catalyst amount 4% from oil with maksimum purity 68,61%. Mono and diacylglycerol formed in this reasearh is w/o emulsifier with HLB 5,19. The result of this research showed that waste egg shell is suitable to be used as the source of cheap catalyst to produce mono and diacylglycerol.

Abstract

Liquid adhesive coconut coir is the result of a reaction between lignin powder material used with aromatic compounds at high temperatures in order to obtain a solution that can be used as an adhesive. This study aims to investigate the characteristics of liquid adhesive of coconut coir (LACC) qualities and determine the effect of resorcinol in the manufacture of adhesives LACC. The study was conducted in three phases: the first stage of coir manufacturing particles, which at this stage coir made into particles of 100 mesh, adhesive manufacturing second stage LACC which at this stage there are two stages of the liquefaction reaction coir and polymerization, and the third stage addition of resorcinol LACC into the adhesive. The variables used in this study is the addition of variable rate resorcinol at 10, 20, 30% by weight. Variables - variables that were analyzed pH, viscosity, spesific gravity, solid content, formaldehyde-free rate and compound analysis using FT-IR adhesive LACC to conditions without the addition of resorcinol and with the addition of 30% resorcinol. The results showed that the addition of resorcinol LACC influence on the resulting adhesive, which has a liquid form, the pH ranged from 12.6 to 10.6, 43,867- 131.712 cps viscosity, specific gravity of 1.252 to 1.258, solid content 46.67 to 80%, from 1.952 to 1.051% formaldehyde content. FT-IR results showed similarity LACC adhesive force phenol formaldehyde resin, namely the presence of the OH group, C = H of the aromatic ring, of methylene CH, CO from ether and fenolic compound.

Mono and diacylglycerol (MDAG) is one of the synthetic emulsifier agent widely used in food industry. Emulsifier agent is one of the economically high value oleochemical product. The purpose of this research is to produce MDAG through glycerolysis process of refined bleached deodorize palm oil (RBDPO) and glycerol by using egg shell waste as catalyst (4 % of oil weight) for 2 hours, whereas the variables ratio of tert-butanol to oil (1, 2, 3 v/w) and reaction temperatur (60, 70 and 80 oC). Egg shell waste was calcined at 900 oC for 2 hours to form active CaO catalyst. Then glycerolysis process to produce mono and diacylglyserol. Mono and diacylglycerol that formed was separated by using separator fannel. The upper layer was vaporated to separate MDAG from tert-butanol. The content of MDAG was analyzed using Gas Chromatography. The best result was at 70 oC temperature, ratio co-solvent to oil 3:1 (v/w), 2 hours of reaction time and 4% of catalyst amount from oil and oil molar ratio to glycerol 1:6 with MDAG content of 68,62%. MDAG formed are w/o emulsifier with 5.19 HLB. The result of this research shows that egg shell waste is suitable to be used as source of cheap catalyst to produce mono and diacylglycerol.
