Abstract

The pyrolysis process has many models with different characteristics and specifications. Each model provides a different conversion value depending on the temperature value, length of time, and the number of raw materials used. Jengkok Tobacco waste was dangerous because it contains Arsenic (As), and was used as a biochar product with economic and strategic value through the extrusion model pyrolysis process. The purpose of this study was to determine the thermal conversion value (yield percentage) of the pyrolysis process of tobacco waste material into biochar at the optimal temperature and processing time. The specified variables consist of process temperatures (400, 450, 500, 550, and 600°C) and processing times (30, 35, and 40 minutes). The product of the process will be analyzed statistically using the Spearman rank correlation test and followed by Minitab to produce the optimal value. The results showed that the thermal conversion value in making biochar was 29.476% (»30%) at a process temperature of 500°C and a processing time of 30 minutes.

Abstract

Parameter interaksi biner kesetimbangan uap-cair campuran yang melibatkan alkohol rantai bercabang atau aseton telah ditentukan pada penelitian ini. Data kesetimbangan uap-cair kondisi isobarik pada tekanan atmosferik telah dipilih total sebanyak 14 sistem. Data kesetimbangan tersebut kemudian dikorelasikan dengan model koefisien aktifitas Wilson, Non Random Two-Liquid (NRTL) dan Universal Quasi-Chemical (UNIQUAC) untuk diperoleh parameter interaksi binernya. Parameter tersebut ditentukan sebagai fungsi suhu pada penelitian ini untuk meningkatkan kemampuannya dalam aplikasi pada kisaran suhu yang panjang. Korelasi menunjukkan hasil yang baik dikarenakan root mean square deviation (RMSD) antara data eksperimental dengan hasil perhitungan relatif kecil. Sebagai tambahan, perilaku masing-masing sistem biner tersebut juga diamati pada kesempatan ini. Parameter yang diperoleh dapat digunakan untuk optimasi desain kolom distilasi pada proses pemurnian produksi bioetanol. The binary interaction parameters of vapor-liquid equilibrium for the mixtures involving branched-chain higher alcohols or acetone have been determined in this study. Isobaric vapor-liquid equilibrium data at atmospheric pressure have been selected for a total of 14 systems. The VLE data were then correlated with the Wilson, NonRandom Two-Liquid (NRTL) and Universal Quasi Chemical (UNIQUAC) activity coefficient models to obtain its binary interaction parameters. The parameters were determined as the temperature-dependent in this study to increase its ability in wide temperature range applications. The correlations showed good results because the root mean square deviation (RMSD) between the experimental data and calculation values were relatively low. In addition, the behavior of each binary systems were also observed in this study. The obtained parameters could be used to optimize the distillation column design in the purification process of bioethanol production.

Abstract

Furfural adalah salah satu bahan kimia penting yang dapat diubah menjadi berbagai bahan kimia seperti furfuryl alkohol dan asam levulinat. Furfural dapat diproduksi dari biomassa lignoselulosa dalam kondisi asam dengan mengkonversikan fraksi hemiselulosa dalam biomassa menjadi gula pentosa dan selanjutnya menjadi furfural. Reaksi degradasi furfural tidak diinginkan karena dapat mengurangi hasil furfural yang telah dihasilkan. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk menghitung parameter kinetika dari reaksi degradasi furfural menggunakan metode numerik dan integral. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa nilai konstanta laju reaksi dan energi aktivasi dari perhitungan metode numerik dan integral berbeda karena perbedaan dalam metode perhitungan. Pada metode integral, reaksi degradasi furfural pada suhu yang lebih tinggi (170oC) sesuai dengan model orde nol karena sebagian besar furfural telah terdegradasi dalam reaksi, akan tetapi reaksi degradasi furfural pada suhu yang lebih rendah (150oC dan 160oC) sesuai dengan model non-second order. Furfural is one of the important building block chemicals that can be converted into various chemicals such as furfuryl alcohol and levulinic acid. Furfural can be produced from lignocellulosic biomass in acidic condition which hemicellulose fraction in biomass can be converted into pentose sugar and subsequently became furfural. Furfural degradation reaction is not desirable because it can reduce the yield of furfural that had been produced. The purpose of this study was to calculated kinetic parameters of furfural degradation reaction using numerical and integral methods. The results showed that the value of reaction rate constants and activation energies from numerical and integral methods calculation were different due to the differences in calculation methods. Using integral method, reaction order of furfural degradation at higher temperature (170oC) follows zero order because most of the furfural had been degraded in the reaction, but reaction order of furfural degradation at lower temperature (150oC and 160oC) follows non-second order.

Abstract

Penggunaan energi fosil yang berlebihan menjadikan ketersedian sumber energi tersebut semakin menipis. Oleh karena itu, diperlukan suatu usaha untuk mengurangi ketergantungan terhadap bahan bakar fosil, seperti menyediakan energi alternatif yang dapat diperbahurui, melimpah jumlahnya, dan ekonomis. Salah satu sumber energi alternatif yang dapat dikembangkan adalah biobriket dari biomassa. Pada penelitian ini, biomassa yang digunakan yaitu enceng gondok dan sabut kelapa dengan menggunkan lem kayu sebagai perekat. Nilai kalor enceng gondok masih rendah maka untuk meningkatkan nilai kalornya dilakukan penambahan sabut kelapa. Konsenterasi perekat adalah 10% dari massa total sampel dengan ukuran partikel 20 mesh untuk ketiga variasi perbandingan antara enceng gondok dan sabut kelapa yaitu 1:1, 3:1 dan 1:3 berturut-turut. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa biobriket dengan perbandingan 1:1, 3:1 dan 1:3 memiliki nilai kalor sebesar 4990 kal/g, 4749 kal/g dan 5312 kal/g berturut-turut. Nilai kalor 5312 kal/g sudah sesuai standar SNI 01-6235-2000. Sampel yang memiliki nilai kalor tertinggi tersebut disebabkan oleh komposisi sabut kelapa yang paling banyak diantara sampel lain. Sampel dengan kalor tertinggi memiliki kadar air, kadar abu, kadar zat terbang dan kadar karbon padat sebesar 9%, 12%, 60%, dan 19% berturut-turut.Excessive use of fossil energy results decrease of energy resources. Therefore, an alternative energy is studied to reduce the dependent on fossil energy. Alternative energy has the characteristics such as renewable, abundant and economist. One of the alternative energy that could be developed is biobriquette from biomass. In this research, biobriquette is synthesized from both water hyacinth and coconut husk, wood glue as adhesive. Due to the calorific value of water hyacinth that is relatively small, coconut husk is added, wood glue is used to improve the value. Glue’s concentration is 10% of the total sample’s mass with 20 mesh particle size for three samples with ratio between water hyacinth and coconut husk is 1:1, 3:1 and 1:3, respectively. The result shows that biobriquette with the ratio 1:1, 3:1 and 1:3 has a calorific value of 4990 cal/g, 4749 cal/g and 5312 cal/g, respectively. The 5312 cal/g is match to SNI 01-6235-2000 standard and that the highest value is the effect of the largest amount of coconut husk than the other samples. Biobriquette that has the highest calorific value has the inherent moisture, ash content, volatile matter and fixed carbon 9%, 12%, 60% and 19% respectively.

Abstract

Sabut kelapa adalah salah satu limbah lignoselulosa yang dapat dikonversikan menjadi bioetanol. Konversi bioetanol pada penelitian ini dilakukan melalui beberapa tahapan yaitu proses pre-treatment, proses Saccharification and Simultaneous Fermentation (SSF), dan proses pemurnian. Proses pre-treatment sebagai proses pemecahan ikatan lignoselulosa menjadi poin utama dalam proses konversi biomassa lignoselulosa. Penelitian ini dilakukan untuk mengetahui pengaruh iradiasi gamma terhadap pemecahan ikatan lignoselulosa pada proses pre-treatment tersebut. Proses iradiasi gamma divariasikan pada dosis sebesar 0 kGy, 100 kGy, 150 kGy, 200 kGy, 250 kGy dan dilanjutkan pre-treatment secara kimia menggunakan NaOH 4%. Kemudian dilanjutkan proses pemurnian setelah proses SSF selama 72 jam. Kadar bioetanol yang diperoleh setelah proses pemurnian diukur menggunakan metode refraktometri dan piknometri. Pada penelitian ini diperoleh kadar bioetanol tertinggi pada dosis iradiasi gamma 200 kGy, yaitu 35,15% untuk metode refraktometri, dan 36,77% untuk metode piknometri. Hasil tersebut jauh lebih tinggi bila dibandingkan dengan kadar bioetanol tanpa iradiasi gamma yaitu 2,45% untuk metode refraktometri, dan 6,92% untuk metode piknometri. Penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa metode pre-treatment dengan iradiasi gamma dapat menghasilkan kadar bioetanol yang lebih tinggi dibandingkan tanpa menggunakan iradiasi gamma. Coconut husk is one of lignocellulosic wastes that can be converted into bioethanol. Bioethanol conversion in this study was carried out through several stages, namely the pre-treatment process, the Saccharification and Simultaneous Fermentation (SSF) process, and the purification process. The pre-treatment process as the process of breaking lignocellulosic bonds becomes the main point in the process of lignocellulosic biomass conversion. This research was conducted to determine the effect of gamma irradiation to breaking lignocellulosic bonds on the pre-treatment process. Gamma irradiation process was varied in doses of 0 kGy, 100 kGy, 150 kGy, 200 kGy, 250 kGy and continued with chemical pre-treatment using 4% NaOH. Then the purification process was continued after the SSF process for 6 days. Bioethanol levels obtained after the purification process were measured using refractometry and picnometry methods. In this study, the highest levels of bioethanol were obtained at a gamma irradiation dose of 200 kGy, namely 34.93% for the refractometry method, and 26.67% for the picnometry method, respectively. These results are much higher when compared to bioethanol levels without gamma irradiation, which is 2.25% for the refractometry method, and 5.49% for the picnometry method, respectively. This study shows that the pre-treatment method with gamma irradiation can produce higher levels of bioethanol than without using gamma irradiation.

Abstract

Generally, biogas production on the household scale is using one-stage anaerobic fermentation technology, which accommodates two main processes of biogas production, namely acetogenesis and methanogenesis. An obstacle of using one-stage biogas digester is the imbalance of the fermentation process that indicated by the increase of organic load rate and shorter retention time that lead to un-optimal biogas productivity. This research undertook the application of two-stage anaerobic digestion, supported by adjusting the initial pH for both acetogenic and methanogenic processes. Firstly, the research initiated by acclimatization (activation) process of acetogenic and methanogenic bacteria via fermentation in laboratory scale (19 L) digesters, separately. The results of acetogenic bacteria acclimatization process on cow dung media showed the pH stability needed for the reaction acetogenic, in the range of 5-6, while the control showed the pH changes still in the neutral pH range (6-7). The substrate from lab-scale acetogenic and methanogenic digester, then used as a starter for pilot-scale digester (125 L and 500 L, respectively). The mixture of water and cow dung were adjusted at initial pH 5.5 on acetogenic digester for 2 weeks. Those material were used for biogas production in the methanogenic digester. The result of the methanogenic process showed an increasing volume of biogas and the composition of methane (CH4) in the biogas. The highest CH4 composition was obtained on the 20th day, which reached 74.82%, and the highest volume of biogas production was at day 22, with the rate of 8.87 L/day. The highest energy potential obtained was 217.66 kJ/day.
