Aceh International Journal of Science & Technology (AIJST) is published by the Graduate School of Syiah Kuala University (PPs Unsyiah) and the Indonesian Soil Science Association (Himpunan Ilmu Tanah Indonesia, Komda Aceh). It is devoted to identifying, mapping, understanding, and interpreting new trends and patterns in science & technology development, especially within Asian countries as well as other parts of the world. The journal endeavors to highlight science & technology development from different perspectives. The aim is to promote broader dissemination of the results of scholarly endeavors into a broader subject of knowledge and practices and to establish effective communication among academic and research institutions, policymakers, government agencies, and persons concerned with the complex issue of science & technology development. The Journal is a peer-reviewed journal. The acceptance decision is made based upon an independent review process supported by rigorous processes and provides constructive and prompt evaluations of submitted manuscripts, ensuring that only intellectual and scholarly work of the greatest contribution and highest significance is published. The AIJST publishes original conceptual and research papers, review papers, technical reports, case studies, management reports, book reviews, research notes, and commentaries. It will occasionally come out with special issues devoted to important topics concerning science & technology development issues. Scopes Starting in 2016, AIJST has focused on science and engineering aspects, and therefore now AIJST considers the topics but not limited to : Engineering (Mechanical, Chemical, Civil, Transportation) Geology and Geomorphology Environmental Science (Hydrology, Pollution, Water Treatment, Soil Science, Climatology) Physical Oceanography Mathematics Physics and Geophysics Geospatial and Information Technology

Abstract

Biochar is known as a huge carbon storage in the soil.  In the soil, biochar absorbs CO2 from air and keep them for hundred years.  In addition to preventing reduce emission and green house effects, Biochar also contributes to soil productivity such as physical dan chemical properties of the soil. How biochar amends soil physical properties combined with some tillage systems are imperative to find out.  Study aimed to determine the influence of biochar and tillage systems on some soil physical properties. Treatment arranged in a factorial randomized block design with three replications. The treatment of biochar effect consisting of four levels; 0, 10, 15, and 20 t ha-1 Biochar. The tillage systems were three levels; no, minimum, and conventional tillage. The results showed that we found an interaction effect on the biochar application with tillage systems on dried bulk density, soil porosity, and soil permeability. No interaction was found on aggregate stability indexes and soil water holding capacity at water content at -0.3 and -15 bar of water potential (pF 2.54 and 4.2, accordingly).  Biochar amounting 10 t ha-1 combined with minimum tillage gave significant benefits on soil productivity in terms of dried bulk density, porosity and soil permeability.

Abstract

Composites material based on sulfonated cyclone fibre cellulose (SCFC) and benzotriazole (Btri) have been prepared. Cyclone fibre cellulose (CFC) was sulfonated with trimethylsilyl chlorosulfonate (TMSCS), with high degree of sulfonation (150%). The composites material, SCFC-Btri were prepared by doping of benzotriazole in various mole ratios (0.125, 0.25 and 0.5). FTIR spectrum has confirmed the ionic interaction between sulfonic acid from sulfonated cyclone fibre cellulose and benzotriazole units. Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) showed that the composites material was thermally stable up to 150 °C. The results showed that methanol permeability of the composite material was lower than pristine Nafion112. Activation energy obtained for the materials are 0. 106 eV, 0.144 eV and 0.137 eV for SCFC-Btri mole ratios 0.125, 0.25 and 0.5 respectively, composites material was expected to be used as raw material in the fuel cell.

Abstract

The study investigates the inhibition characteristics of rice husk extract (RHE) on the corrosion of mild steel in 1M acidic media. Mass loss, Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), phytochemical analysis were used as basis for studying the corrosion inhibition behaviour of the extracts. The analyses of the results showed that as concentration increases, there was increase in the inhibitor while increase in temperature reduces the inhibition respectively. Moreover, the highest inhibition efficiency was 94.24 % at 40 oC and 0.25 g/l inhibition concentration in sulfuric acid medium while inhibition efficiency of 89 % at 60 oC and 0.20 g/l inhibition concentration in hydrochloric acid. The thermodynamic parameters revealed that the adsorption of extract onto the metal surface was spontaneous. Langmuir isotherm best fits the data obtained suggesting physical adsorption as the adsorption mechanism between the extract and the mild steel substrate. The results from the FT-IR spectroscopy showed that the organic compounds found in Rice husk made it a good inhibitor.

Abstract

Arabica coffee is being considered to be of better quality than robusta because of their superior taste and aroma. Adulteration of arabica with other cheaper coffee like robusta coffee has become a great problem related to authentication of food products. Ground coffee samples are most challenging to be discriminated each other and visual inspection by our eyes or even machine vision method becomes very difficult. For this reason, in this research we propose a new analytical method based on UV-visible spectroscopy for quantification of adulteration in arabica-robusta coffee blend. The proposed method is easy to use, low cost with affordable spectrometer and safe for environment with free-chemical analysis. A number of 100 samples was used as samples with different degree of adulteration (10-60% of robusta concentration in arabica-robusta coffee blend). Spectral data of aqueous samples was obtained using a UV-visible spectroscopy in the range 200-400 nm. The result shows that calibration model using selected subintervals (iPLS model) can improve the prediction performance of calibration model using full spectrum (FS-PLS). It is noted that iPLS model removed wavelengths that is not related to the quantification of adulteration in arabica-robusta coffee blend. This study has shown a potential application of using UV-visible spectroscopy for simple and low cost tool to detect the authentication of arabica coffees
