Abstract

A study on the determination of Ag, Cu, and Fe contents in mineral rocks has been conducted. The sample was randomly taken from the surface of the hill at Dusun Jambu Dolok Kabupaten Toba Samosir. Ovens destroyed the sample at 900°C. For the determination of Ag and Cu, the sample was dissolved by using concentrated HNO3. For the determination of Fe, it was dissolved by using concentrated HNO3 and concentrated HCl. The determination of Ag, Cu, and Fe was carried out using Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer. The wavelength is 328.1 nm for Ag, 324.7 nm for Cu, and 248.3 nm for Fe. The results obtained show that the content of Ag, Cu, and Fe in the sample are 2.1590 mg/Kg, 21,311.4754 mg/Kg, and 150,000.0000 mg/Kg, respectively

Abstract

Vitamin E consists of two parts, namely tocopherol and tocotrienol which are found as minor components in candlenut oil. The process of increasing vitamin E concentrate in candlenut oil aims to obtain higher vitamin E levels from candlenut oil through a major and minor component separation with adsorption and desorption methods with three types of calcium silicate hydrate adsorbent namely calcium silicate with 90% absolute ethanol (Ca-S 90), calcium silicate with 75% absolute ethanol (Ca-S 75) and calcium silicate synthesized from CaO (Ca-S). The three adsorbents were synthesized by hydrothermal method at 170ºC for 24 hours accompanied by stirring and characterized by XRD, SEM-EDX, and BET. Furthermore, the adsorbent was applied to enrich vitamin E concentrate in candlenut oil through the adsorption process using a glass column with a mass ratio between candlenut oil and adsorbent that was 1:1, then the vitamin E desorption process was carried out by adding n-hexane solvent. Vitamin E levels obtained after the adsorption and desorption process were for Ca-S 75 adsorbent was 764.41 ppm (1. 82 times enriched), for Ca-S 90 adsorbent was 1011.29 ppm (2. 40 times enriched) and for Ca-S adsorbent was 1029, 38 ppm (2.4 5 times enriched) from the initial vitamin E level in candle nut oil was 420.66 ppm. Ca-S adsorbent showed the best vitamin E enrichment.

Abstract

A study of the use of natural zeolite active as ammonia absorbent in an aquarium as the cultivation of medium fresh fish has been conducted. The water sample was taken from the surface water of Toba Lake, Pangururan, Samosir Regency. Natural zeolite was refined until measured at 200 mesh and activated by physics. Determination of ammonia was performed using spectrophotometrically with the Nessler method at the maximum wavelength of 410 nm. The result of the analysis of this study obtained that decrease in water pH and ammonia content in the water after feeding the fish was caused by the absorption of active natural zeolite active to the tenth day which concentration of ammonia on the first and tenth day was 1.2723 mg/L and 2.4171 mg/L with the largest absorption percent on the day to ten was 38.04%.

Abstract

Liquid waste from the steel industry processing, washing machine, and kitchenware foundry that is disposed containing copper (Cu), chromium (Cr) and manganese (Mn) elements which is harmful to enviromental. The levels of elemental copper (Cu), chromium (Cr), and manganese (Mn) were analyzed using Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometry (AAS) method. The effluent samples were destructed with the addition of concentrated HNO3. Then determining of the concentration of the element copper (Cu), chromium (Cr) and manganese (Mn) using Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer with a calibration curve. The obtained results for the levels of copper (Cu) on the inlet samples were 0.9714 mg/L - 0.9719 mg/L, the outlet samples were 3.9990 mg/L - 4.0002 mg/L. Hence, the levels of the element chromium (Cr) on inlet samples were 0.0295 mg/L - 0.0297 mg/L, the outlet samples were 0.0399 mg/L - 0.0400 mg/L and the levels of manganese (Mn) in the inlet samples were 0.1269 mg/L - 0.1271 mg/L in a outlet samples were 2.9699 mg/L - 2.9701 mg/L. Then the steel industry wastewater for elemental copper (Cu) and manganese (Mn) has exceeded the limits that have been instituted by the Minister of Environment Decree No. 51, 1995, about the Liquid Waste Quality Standard for Industrial Activity
