Abstract

Humic acid is a fraction of humic compounds that are part of soil organic matter. In this research, humic acid is extracted from oil palm empty fruit bunches compost. Compost is made from the process of counting the empty oil palm bunches, which are composted until the compost is cooked. The humic acid extraction process uses a strong base extraction method. The principle of humic acid extraction is to dissolve the humic compound with a base solution and then separate it by adding an acid solution (HCl solution). The extraction of humic acid from oil palm empty fruit bunches compost produced blackish-brown humic acid with a yield of 4.895%. The result showed that the main functional group content of palm oil empty fruit bunches compost humic acid was the -OH group and phenol group which had a conjugated carbonyl group and a more aliphatic humic acid structure. Quantitatively, the functional groups of humic acid functional groups each amounted to a total acidity of 7,400 cmol/kg, a carboxylic group of 520 cmol/kg, and a phenolic -OH group content of 6,880 cmol/kg. Research results show that oil palm empty fruit bunches compost can be used as a source of humic acid.

Abstract

The use of Cu in daily life and industry can produce toxic waste, both for the human body and the environment. This study aimed to determine the optimum pH value and contact time, and the maximum capacity of the adsorption process of Cu(II) ions by corn cob biomass. The optimum pH and contact time were determined based on the adsorption graph of the adsorbent obtained from the optimization of pH and time, while the maximum adsorption capacity was determined using the Langmuir adsorption isotherm equation. The results showed that the optimum pH adsorption of Cu(II) ions by corn cob absorbent occurred at pH 7 with the absorption of 98.34%. Optimum contact time occurred at the 60th minute with the percentage of copper absorbed was 96.37%. Besides, the maximum capacity adsorption of corn cobs toward Cu(II) ions was 2.416 mg/g. This study concluded that corn cobs can be used as an adsorbent of Cu(II) ions.

Abstract

The use of inorganic fertilizer in the tillage was mostly used by Sikkanese. The reason was the large supply of inorganic fertilizer on the market, fast response, easy to absorb, and not to waste times. In the implementation, inorganic fertilizer was not used accordance with the stipulation of the four rights (4T): right dose, right time, right place, and right source. The result was the decrease of soil quality and the death of soil-degrading microorganisms so that the soil became infertile. Therefore, the booklet as a learning media gave the right information about the proper fertilization system. The research aims to know the appropriateness of the booklet development of inorganic fertilization system. The method used was the research and development (R n D) method by adopting a Borg and Gall model. The sample was taken by using purposive sampling. The analysis technical was validity analysis (valid percentage) and appropriate analysis (Widoyoko categorial). The result of the study showed that the booklet was appropriated to use as a medium of information for the farmer with the feasibility category both at the initial field trial and field trial stages. Furthermore, in the field trial implementation, the booklet was suitable to use with the very good feasibility category.

Abstract

Breadfruit (Artocarpus communis) is a tropical fruit plant that belongs to the genus Artocarpus of the Moraceae family. Prenylated flavonoid compounds were isolated from the methanol fraction of breadfruit root wood using maceration, partitioning, and chromatography methods, while characterization was carried out through phytochemical tests and 1H-NMR spectrum data analysis. The K1D2 (P1) compound obtained was a yellow solid with a mass of 5 mg. The phytochemical test of the K1D2 (P1) compound gave positive results for the flavonoid group. The 1H-NMR spectrum data (CDCl3, 500 MHz) of compound K1D2 (P1) showed a typical chemical shift at δH 13.42 (1H, s, 5-OH) for the hydroxy groups associated with carbonyl; 7.68 (1H, d, J = 8.5 Hz, H-6 ′); 6.71 (1H, dd, J = 16.0; 7.1 Hz, H-10); 6.56 (1H, d, J = 16.0 Hz, H-9); 6.54 (1H, dd, J = 8.5; 1.8 Hz, H-5 ′); 6.46 (1H, s, H-3); 6.42 (1H, d, J = 1.8 Hz, H-3 ′); 6.26 (1H, d, J = 9.3 Hz, H-14); 5.42 (1H, d, J = 9.3 Hz, H-15); 3.94 (3H, s, 2′-OCH3); 2.47 (1H, m, H-11); 1.97 (3H, s, H-17); 1.69 (3H, s, H-18), and 1.10 (6H, d, J = 6.7 Hz, H-12 and H-13). Based on the results of phytochemical tests and analysis of 1H-NMR spectrum data compared with literature data, it showed that the isolated K1D2 (P1) compound is 4 ′, 5-dihydroxy-6,7- (2,2-dimethylpirano) -2'-methoxy- 8γ, γ-dimethylallylflavone (1).

Abstract

Water as a natural resource is needed in life. Nowadays, the need for freshwater is increasing. Meanwhile, most people fulfill their daily water needs from well water. This study aims to determine the quality of well water in the IAIN Tulungagung campus area based on physical, chemical, and biological parameters. This type of research is a quantitative descriptive. A total of 12 points from 4 stations were chosen by random sampling. Laboratory test results were compared with PerMenKes RI No. 492/MENKES/PER/IV/2010 and PerMenKes RI No. 32 Tahun 2017. The results of the study show that (1) two sources of water do not qualify as clean water based on physical parameters because the turbidity value and total dissolved solids (TDS) exceeds the quality standard, (2) five sources of water do not qualify as water clean based on chemical parameters because the Fe content exceeds the quality standard and/or low dissolved oxygen (DO) concentration, and (3) four wells do not meet bacteriological tests for the amount of coli fecal bacteria and total coliform. Well water in the IAIN campus area has decreased water quality caused by domestic waste.
