Abstract

Palm oil empty fruit bunches (EFB) and fronds are solid waste originating from palm oil processing which can be used as the main raw material for making briquettes. This is supported by its contents, namely lignin, hemicellulose and cellulose. The smaller the particle size, the greater the compressive strength of the briquette, but the burning rate will be slower because the cavity/pores of the briquette are smaller. This research aims to determine the effect of particle (mesh) size on the characteristics of briquettes which include water content, ash content, density, compressive strength and burning rate as well as to determine the best composition of a mixture of empty oil palm fruit bunches and fronds. The results of this research show that the best particle size is 70 mesh briquettes with a raw material composition of 46% EFB and 46% fronds (1:1) with 8% tapioca flour adhesive. Biobriquettes with small particle sizes have lower calorific value. The results of this research indicate that the manufacture of briquettes is in accordance with the Standard Characteristics of SNI No. 1/6235/2000.

Abstract

Stevia is a natural sweetener that is 250-300 times sweeter than sucrose and is low in calories. Stevia sweeteners are obtained from the extraction of stevia leaves. This study aims to determine the effects of temperature and stirring speed on the characteristics of crude stevia extract (yield, brix value, and IR spectrum). Maceration extraction was conducted with 70% ethanol for 1 hour, varying the temperature (28 ℃, 40 ℃, 55 ℃) and stirring speed (0 rpm, 50 rpm, 100 rpm, 150 rpm). The results showed that a temperature of 40 ℃ produced the highest yield at each stirring speed. The yield increased with the increase in stirring speed at each extraction temperature. The highest brix value was obtained at 55 ℃ and a stirring speed of 150 rpm. The IR spectrum results showed that the functional groups in the crude stevia extract were almost identical to those in commercial stevia.

Abstract

Continuous ultrasound-assisted enzymatic extraction (CUAEE) method has become a promising technique for extracting bioactive compounds from plant materials. In this study, the extraction of kejibeling (Strobilanthes crispus) leaves was carried out using the CUAEE method to optimize the extract yield. The experimental design involved extraction parameters including leaf particle size (d ≤0,177 mm), ethanol concentration (50%), extraction time (180 minutes), and varying parameters such as temperature (30 °C, 40 °C, 50 °C, and 60 °C), as well as cellulase enzyme concentration of 3% and 5%. The results showed that the optimal conditions for CUAEE were achieved at a temperature of 60 °C with an enzyme-solid ratio of 5%, producing a total phenolic content (TPC) of 12,097 mg EAG/g dry leaf powder and a total flavonoid content (TFC) of 2,291 EK/g dry leaf powder. The data obtained indicate that the continuous ultrasound-assisted enzymatic extraction method has the potential for large-scale production of phenolic acids and flavonoids.

Abstract

This research aims to conduct an initial analysis of the characteristics of bioadsorbent from fish waste which will be used as a pollutant adsorption. Fish waste was obtained from Tempat Pelelangan Ikan (TPI) in Cilacap district, Central Java. The fish waste obtained is dried by drying with solar thermal for 2 – 3 days. The carbonization process of fish waste is carried out by pyrolysis at a temperature of 550 oC for 4 hours until fish waste charcoal is produced. Charcoal is ground to 100 mesh size. The charcoal was then weighed 50 g and activated with 1 L of 5% Ca(OH)2 at a temperature of 70 oC with stirring at 350 rpm for 2 hours; 4 hours; and 6 hours. Analysis of characteristic bioadsorbent refers to SNI 06-3730-1995. Bioadsorbent from fish waste activated at an activation time of 6 hours has the best characteristics in terms of water content and ash content of 2,75% and 20,2% respectively, while the best characteristics in terms of volatile matter content and iodine absorption capacity are found in bioadsorbent without activation of 44,33% and 1.250,46 mg/g respectively.

Abstract

Plastic is an essential material in our daily lives. This study identifies that among various types of waste, multilayer plastic and styrofoam are one of the most difficult to manage optimally. One alternative to reduce this problem is to use waste as a mixture material for paving blocks. The composition of multilayer plastic and styrofoam used in this study were 65%:35%, 55%:45%, 45%:55%, and 35%:65%.This research only produced paving block samples that passed the visual test, size test, and average water absorption test. However, none of the samples passed the compressive strength, abrasion resistance, and sodium sulfate resistance tests according to the SNI 03-0691-1996 standards. Meanwhile, the water absorption test results for the 65%:35% and 55%:45% multilayer plastic-styrofoam samples met the quality standard C (for pedestrian use), while the 45%:55% and 35%:65% samples met the quality standard B (for parking equipment use).

Abstract

This research aims to make a natural preservative of secang wood against baronang fish. The active flavonoid compounds of secang wood can function as antioxidants, antimicrobials, and antibacterials. Secang wood extract is obtained by ultrasonic extraction with a 60% ethanol solvent. Variable temperature and extraction ratio are the most optimal at 50 °C and a ratio (w/v) of 1:20. The extracts obtained were analysed for total phenolic levels, antioxidant levels, water content, and ash content. The extract is then used as a baronang fish preservative with a concentration of 600 ppm and 1200 ppm at room temperature and refrigerator. The result is a phenolic content of 2,24 mgGAE/g, a water content of 38,96%, an ash content of 0,65%, and an antioxidant content of 109,25 ppm. Preservation results were analysed total plate number at 3 hours, 6 hours, and 9 hours, as well as the average microbial growth at 9 hours of incubation. The result exceeds the quality standard of fresh fish SNI 2729:2013, which is 5,70 CFU/g. The longer the storage time of baronang fish, the more microbes grow, which is closely related to organoleptic analysis, which decreases its freshness rate.

Abstract

Edible film merupakan kemasan ramah lingkungan (biodegradable) dan bersifat edible (bisa dikonsumsi). Bahan penyusun utama edible film adalah hidrokoloid (polisakarida), lipid dan komposit keduanya. Salah satu jenis polisakarida berpotensi tinggi dan sedang menjadi pusat perhatian para peneliti untuk dijadikan edible film adalah pati. Namun edible film bersifat keras dan mudah rapuh sehingga perlu penambahan plasticizer untuk memperbaiki kelemahan tersebut. Pada penelitian ini digunakan campuran plasticizer gliserol dan sorbitol dengan perbandingan campurannya terhadap bahan baku 10%, 30%, 50% dan 70% (v/b pati) dan variasi konsentrasi gelatin 2 g, 4 g dan 6 g. Pati yang diekstrak dari kulit kopi memiliki kadar air 16% dengan persentase rendemen sebesar 4,39%. Hasil karakteristik edible film terbaik adalah variasi konsentrasi campuran plasticizer 10% dan konsentrasi gelatin 6 g dengan nilai kelarutan dalam air yang dihasilkan 71,37%, ketebalan 0,07 mm, kuat tarik 6,66 MPa, elongasi 22,93% dengan laju permeabilitas terhadap uap air sebesar 0,00433 g/m2s.

Abstract

This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of KCl-modified Sarulla natural zeolite in removing ammonium ions from aqueous solutions. The zeolite was modified by soaking in 0.5 M (ZA05) and 1.5 M (ZA15) KCl solutions for 24 hours at a solid/solvent ratio of 1:3 (weight/volume). The adsorption process was conducted in batch mode using an orbital shaker at a speed of 100 rpm, with contact times ranging from 0 to 210 minutes. The initial ammonium ion concentration was 100 mg/L, and the analysis was performed using a UV-visible spectrophotometer. The results showed that ZA05 and ZA15 adsorbents achieved ammonium ion removal efficiencies of 14.62% and 12.29%, respectively. Adsorption isotherm analysis using the Langmuir and Freundlich models demonstrated a good fit with the equilibrium data, with ZA15 exhibiting a higher maximum adsorption capacity than ZA05. This study confirms the potential of KCl-modified Sarulla natural zeolite as an effective adsorbent material for wastewater treatment.

Abstract

This research aimed to produce biodiesel from off-grade palm oil using barium hydroxide (Ba(OH)2) catalyst. The free fatty acid (FFA) content in off-grade palm oil is quite high, so the biodiesel production process is carried out in two-stages, i.e. esterification and transesterification. The esterification of off-grade palm oil (500 mL) was carried out at 60 oC for 1 hour, methanol:oil molar ratio of 12:1, stirrer speed of 400 rpm, and 1 wt-% sulfuric acid (H2SO4) as the catalyst. Next, the transesterification process used a methanol:oil molar ratio of 9:1, stirrer speed of 400 rpm, for 2 hours with the variation of temperatures (50, 60, and 70 oC) and Ba(OH)2 catalyst amounts (1, 2 and 3 wt-%). The best result was obtained with 60 oC and Ba(OH)2 catalyst amount 3 wt-%. Based on Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectroscopy (GC-MS) analysis, the best yield of fatty acid methyl ester was 98.97%, with major components being 40.87% palmitic acid and 35.87% oleic acid. The characteristics of biodiesel produced were density of 860.46 kg/m3, viscosity of 4.08 mm/s2, flash point of 145 oC and acid value of 0.457 mg KOH/g biodiesel.

Abstract

The use of heavy metals including manganese (Mn) in various industrial applications such as mining and metal processing has triggered water pollution and caused a negative impact on human health. This study aims to evaluate the adsorbent properties activated by sodium hydroxide from oil palm frond waste for Mn(II) adsorption from the water via a fixed-bed column at flow rates of 5, 10, and 15 mL/min. The morphology analysis exhibited high pore development in the adsorbent after the activation process using sodium hydroxide. Similar to the results of functional group analysis, the activated adsorbent indicated an increase in oxygen-containing functional groups that are beneficial aspects in the adsorption process. In the continuous adsorption applications, a flow rate of 5 mL/min presented an optimum adsorption capacity of 36.58 mg/g compared to flow rates of 10 mL/min and 15 mL/min: 28.94 mg/g and 22.07 mg/g, respectively. The findings of the present work denote the utility and effectiveness of oil palm frond waste as an eco-friendly raw material for the fabrication of adsorbent with relatively favorable properties for Mn(II) adsorption.
