Abstract

The neem tree has strengths such as effective and environmentally friendly active compounds, as well as the ability to improve the quality and productivity of plants organically. However, the use of botanical pesticides has several challenges, such as potentially lower effectiveness compared to chemical insecticides, high production costs, and requiring specific knowledge in formulation and application. Botanical pesticides are readily available tools for insect pest management and are eco-friendly. The research results show that a neem formula at a concentration of 20 ml.l-1 water can cause mortality of brown planthopper is 48.75 - 70%, while mortality in the synthetic insecticide (positive control) at a concentration of 2 ml.l-1 water (as recommended) resulted in 45% mortality. It is obvious that there is a need to develop biological control as alternatives for eco-friendly and sustainable for pests’ control in insect’s pest management strategies.  This research study has both qualitative and quantitative approach, data collection strategies were desk review of information and will be based on empirical data and literature. For the desk study, relevant internet web pages were browsed to have an overview of the key concepts of the research issue, problem of pests and diseases control and benefit of neem tree as botanical pesticides. Nevertheless, the use of botanical pesticides can provide long-term benefits to the environment and human health and support more sustainable agriculture. There is a great opportunity for the development of more effective and affordable technology for botanical pesticide production for farmers, but there are also threats such as strong competition from synthetic pesticides. The objective this study aims to determine the potential of neem (Azadirachta indica A.Juss) as a plant producing botanical pesticides as an effective and sustainable biological control alternative.

Abstract

Rosmarinus officinalis is a medicinal plant, which belongs to family Lamiaceae. It is an evergreen bush. It was analyzed for its phytochemical constitution and antibacterial activity. For this purpose, leaves of n-hexane, ethyl acetate and methanolic extracts were used. The tests of phytochemical screening showed that the plant leaves contain anthraquinones, terpenoids, flavonoids, reducing sugars, saponins, cardiac glycosides, coumarins, phenols, carbohydrates, proteins, steroids, alkaloids and quinones, while tannin was absent. The antibacterial activity was determined against E. coli and staphylococcus aureus; the invitro antibacterial activity was performed by disc diffusion method. The n-hexane and ethyl acetate extracts showed no antibacterial activity against E. coli while ethyl acetate extracts showed antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus sp. The results showed that the highest mean inhibition zone was observed in the methanolic extracts.

Abstract

To ensure a safe drinking water supply, it is necessary to protect water quality. The proposed project aims to understand water quality data analyzed from a temporal and spatial perspective on the following physiochemical parameters: DO, pH, temperature, Secchi disc turbidity, conductivity, nitrate, chlorophyll α & phosphate. The results provide information to evaluate the status of the water quality and its suitability for human consumption. These variables related to the general characteristics of water quality and trophic level were used for calculation of a water quality index (WQI) and trophic state index (TSI) to assess 3 lakes in Puerto Rico: Lake Cidra, Lake Carraizo and Lake Guineo. Presence or absence of macrophytes were monitored during six months in the three reservoirs in Puerto Rico as well as the parameters mentioned above. The objective of this investigation is to discuss the trophic state and water quality in 3 different trophic state reservoirs in Puerto Rico. Results were correlated with the density of the macrophyte species, Eichhornia crassipes. Variations of water in situ multiparametric sampling were recorded for 6 months. Thus, integrating components that define the status of reservoirs using multiparameter measurements from various perspectives; a better diagnosis is expected regarding the water quality assessment. This investigation aims to undertake a comprehensive study of water quality by implementing the WQI and TSI indices, considering physical, chemical, and biological parameters with respect to eutrophication and ecological considerations for three reservoirs in the Puerto Rico, providing information regarding the quality of water and trophic state of the chosen reservoirs. Overall WQI results revealed that the water quality improved after the Hurricane Fiona’s occurrence. Trophic State Index after the hurricane showed slight fluctuations in the reservoirs.

Abstract

The Design Study of the Semarang Sea Wall Development Plan will result in a change in environmental conditions in the eastern coastal area. Changes in environmental conditions that will occur in the area include changes in sea currents which originally flowed eastward moving to the Tambak Lorok area on the west coast and the Java Sea. The method uses Descriptive Qualitative with the help of SEM analysis. Based on the results of the analysis of the SEM model, it is known that the indicator that will be affected based on the Design Study of the Sea Wall Development Plan is the Mangrove Ecosystem of 0.477. To maintain the sustainability of the mangrove ecosystem, a coastal area management system needs to pay attention to the principle of the continuity of the function of existing mangrove forests. Mangrove ecosystems in coastal areas that are maintained, and supported by awareness and common perceptions of various parties about the importance of the existence of mangrove ecosystems will have an impact on the sustainability of coastal areas.

Abstract

Tribulus terrestris L. (T. terrestris) is widely distributed worldwide (Australia, Europe, India, North Africa). It typically contains a substantial amount of active ingredients, especially saponins, alkaloids, flavonoids, tannins, terpenoids, and phenol carboxylic acids. Additionally, T. terrestris has been frequently used in folk medicine and as a food supplement, highlighting the importance of evaluating its phytopharmacological properties. Various hypotheses suggest that this species may have significant potential in preventing and improving various human conditions, including diabetes, inflammatory diseases, low sexual desire, and infertility. Phytochemical studies reveal a significant disparity in the content of active substances, with a notable gap in the concentrations of spirostanol saponins and furostanol, which are the predominant active ingredients associated with therapeutic effects. The objective of this present review is to evaluate T. terrestris -based formulations by exploring various potential mechanisms of action, aiming to determine whether the use of T. terrestris supplements is justified in the context of diabetes and its complications.

Abstract

Batteries made from lithium, nickel, manganese, and cobalt are widely used, especially in the electrical industry, because they have high specific capacity, high safety, and low production costs. According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), the consumption of batteries used for electric vehicles will increase from 8 million in 2019 to 50 million in 2025 and to 140 million in 2030. As a result, the waste produced is also increasing. This type of lithium ion battery (LIB) which contains heavy metal elements such as nickel, manganese and cobalt can be recycled. This research aims to calculate the mass balance of the recycling process for nickel manganese cobalt (NMC) battery cathodes.   The processing process begins with mixing, leaching, filtration, drying the results of the filtration process, molarity adjustment, Flame Assisted Spray Pyrolysis, and calcination. Based on the results of mass balance calculations for the NMC recycle battery cathode, the amount obtained was 43.427 kg/batch from 100 kg of cathode waste raw material. Apart from that, data was obtained on the metals that were successfully recycled, namely NiO, MnO, CoO, Fe2O3, MgO, Al2O3, Cr2O3, and Li2O. The research results provide information that NMC battery waste can be an opportunity for the NMC metal supply chain and can reduce environmental pollution.
