Abstract

Biodegradable foam merupakan kemasan alternatif pengganti styrofoam yang menggunakan bahan baku utama berupa pati sehingga kemasan tersebut dapat terurai secara alami. Namun, produk biodegradable foam yang dihasilkan masih memiliki karakteristik sifat yang rendah. Penelitian ini dilakukan untuk mengetahui pengaruh penambahan konsentrasi kitosan terhadap karakteristik sifat biodegradable foam yang dihasilkan dari pati sagu alami dan termodifikasi menggunakan metode hidrolisis asam – alkohol. Jenis asam yang digunakan pada hidrolisis asam adalah HCl. Konsentrasi kitosan yang ditambahkan pada penelitian ini divariasikan mulai dari 0, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30 % w/w dari pati. Pembuatan biodegradable foam dilakukan menggunakan metode baking process yang dimulai dengan percampuran bahan selain pati sagu termodifikasi, dilakukannya pengadukan hingga campuran menjadi homogen dan mengembang, dan dipanggang didalam oven dengan suhu 125ºC. Analisa pada biodegradable foam adalah analisa daya serap air, analisa kemampuan daya urai dan uji tarik. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa modifikasi asam – alkohol pada pati sagu tidak mempengaruhi gugus fungsi. Sifat mekanis biodegradable foam yang terbaik pada penelitian ini diperoleh menggunakan pati sagu termodifikasi HCl dan penambahan kitosan sebesar 20% w/w yang memiliki daya serap 4,95 %, densitas sebesar 1.2 g/m3 kemampuan degradasi sebesar 25.12 % dan kekuatan tarik sebesar 1,27 Mpa Biodegradable foam is an alternative packaging for styrofoam which uses the main raw material in the form of starch so that the packaging can be decomposed naturally. However, the biodegradable foam products produced still have low characteristics. This research is conducted to determine the effect of the addition of chitosan concentration on the characteristics of biodegradable foam properties produced from natural sago and modified sago starch using acid-alcohol hydrolysis method. The type of acid used in acid hydrolysis is HCl. The concentrations of chitosan added in this study are varied from 0, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30% w / w of starch. Biodegradable foam production is carried out by using the baking process method which begins with the mixing of ingredients other than modified sago starch, stirring until the mixture becomes homogeneous and expands, and baked in an oven at 125ºC. The caracterisation of biodegradable foam are water absorption analysis, biodegradability analysis, and tensile test. The results show that modification of acid-alcohol on sago starch do not affect the functional group. The best mechanical properties of biodegradable foam in this research are obtained by using HCl-modified sago starch and addition of chitosan by 20% w / w which have an absorption capacity of 4.95%, density of 0.6 g / m3, degradation ability of 25.12% and tensile strength of 1.27 MPa.

Abstract

Peningkatan kebutuhan energi terutama bahan bakar minyak yang tidak diimbangi dengan ketersediaan sumber energi tak terbarukan akan mengakibatkan kelangkaan energi. Pembuatan bahan bakar terbarukan merupakan solusi untuk mengatasi kelangkaan tersebut, salah satunya bioetanol. Biomassa Tandan Kosong Kelapa Sawit (TKKS) merupakan bahan baku yang cocok untuk pembuatan bioetanol karena jumlahnya yang melimpah dan mengandung lignoselulosa. Bioetanol dapat diperoleh melalui proses fermentasi dengan metode yang digunakan adalah Fed Batch Simultaneous Saccharification Fermentation. Pretreatment berupa size reduction dan delignifikasi direkomendasikan sebelum proses hidrolisis enzimatik dan fermentasi secara serentak. Metode pengumpanan Fed Batch pada High Total Solid Loading (HTSL) direkomendasikan sebagai strategi pengumpanan pada proses hidrolisis enzimatik dengan jumlah frekuensi yang tinggi memberikan hasil kadar etanol lebih tinggi. The enhancement of energy needs, especially fuel, that is not complemented by the availability of non-renewable energy sources, would affect the deficient of energy. The production of renewable fuel such as bioethanol is a solution to overcome that deficiency. One of the substrates that are appropriate to be processed into bioethanol is Oil Palm Empty Fruit Bunch (OPEFB) because of abundant and lignocellulosic biomass. Bioethanol can be produced through the fermentation process by Fed-Batch Simultaneous Saccharification Fermentation method. Size reduction and delignification for pretreatment are recommended before the simultaneous enzymatic hydrolysis process and fermentation. Using the fed-batch as a feeding method of High Total Solid Loading (HTSL) is recommended for feeding strategy in hydrolysis enzymatic process with high frequency that can produce a higher yield of ethanol.

Abstract

Indonesia sebagai negara penghasil minyak kelapa sawit terbesar di dunia memiliki limbah tandan kosong kelapa sawit (TKKS) yang melimpah. TKKS ini dapat dikonversi menjadi berbagai bioproduk yang didahului dengan proses pretreatment. Pada penelitian ini akan diteliti perhitungan panas pretreatment TKKS dengan sodium hidroksida dan asam fosfat pada kondisi suhu rendah. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa panas pretreatment dengan menggunakan sodium hidroksida lebih tinggi dibandingkan dengan panas pretreatment dengan asam fosfat. Selain itu, berdasarkan variasi konsentrasi asam fosfat yang digunakan, semakin tinggi konsentrasi asam fosfat membuat panas pretreatment dengan menggunakan larutan asam fosfat semakin rendah. Perbedaan nilai panas pada pretreatment dengan menggunakan sodium hidroksida dan asam fosfat dipengaruhi oleh panas pembentukan dari masing-masing senyawa yang digunakan proses pretreatment. Panas pretreatment TKKS dengan 5% larutan sodium hidroksida menghasilkan panas sebesar 125 kJ. Sedangkan, panas pretreatment dengan menggunakan asam fosfat pada berbagai konsentrasi 70%, 75%, 80% dan 85% adalah 117 kJ, 103 kJ, 88 kJ dan 74 kJ.

Abstract

Fotodegradasi terkatalisis TiO2 telah terbukti efektif digunakan untuk mengolah limbah organik, sehingga dilakukan kajian fotodegradasi terkatalisis TiO2 pada limbah cair industri mie soun sebagai upaya untuk mengurangi pencemaran lingkungan di sekitar daerah produksi. Kajian penambahan oksidator H2O2 juga dilakukan untuk meningkatkan efektivitas fotodegradasi. Optimalisasi reaksi fotodegradasi dilakukan dengan optimasi variabel pH, massa fotokatalis, konsentrasi H2O2, dan waktu penyinaran. Parameter yang digunakan untuk menilai efektivitas fotodegradasi berupa penurunan kandungan Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) limbah yang ditentukan dengan metode volumetri. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa limbah cair industri mie soun mempunyai kandungan COD awal sebesar 1920 mg L-1. Proses fotodegradasi terkatalisis TiO2 hanya dapat menurunkan kandungan COD limbah menjadi 1480 mg L-1 (22,92%), sedangkan penambahan H2O2 pada sistem fotokatalis TiO2 dapat meningkatkan penurunan kandungan COD menjadi 1120 mg L-1 (41,67%). Penurunan paling optimal tercapai pada pH 3, penggunaan 10 mg TiO2, penambahan 10 mM H2O2, dan waktu penyinaran UV selama 24 jam. Photocatalytic degradation over TiO2 has been proven to be effective in treating organic wastewater. So that a study of photocatalytic degradation over TiO2 in the cellophane noodles industrial wastewater was conducted as an effort to reduce environmental pollution around the production area. Studies on the addition of H2O2 as an oxidizing agents were also carried out to increase the effectiveness of photodegradation. Optimization of the photodegradation reaction was carried out by optimizing the variables of pH, photocatalyst mass, H2O2 concentration, and irradiation time. Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) was used to assess the effectiveness of photodegradation and was determined by volumetric method. The results showed that the wastewater from the cellophane noodles industrial wastewater has an initial COD level of 1920 mg L-1. Photocatalytic degradation over TiO2 process can only reduce the COD level of the wastewater to 1480 mg L-1 (22.92%), while the addition of H2O2 to the TiO2 photocatalyst system can increase the decrease in the COD level to 1120 mg L-1 (41.67%).
