Abstract

The pervasive contamination resulting from plastic straw usage has necessitated the development of a resolution to address this predicament. One potential avenue for exploration is the development of an environmentally sustainable edible straw. The objective of this study is to design and evaluate the optimal materials and characteristics of an edible straw that complies with the Japanese Industrial Standard, which serves as an international benchmark. The independent variables employed in this study encompass the ratio of kimpul taro starch and catfish skin gelatin, along with sorbitol. These variables were analyzed using Central Composite Design (CCD) and Response Surface Methodology (RSM), with the assistance of Design Expert 13 software. The edible straw was produced through a mixing and casting process, using a ratio of catfish skin gelatin to kimpul taro starch of 5:5; 4:6; 3:7; 2:8; 1:9, along with the addition of plasticizers at varying concentrations of 0%; 0.4%; 0.8%; 1.2%; and 1.6%. The characteristics that were the focus of the analysis included thickness, tensile strength, elongation, solubility, and biodegradation rate. The findings of this study suggest that the edible straw under consideration is in accordance with the Japanese Industrial Standard and is deemed safe for utilization and ingestion.

Abstract

The bypass system in spin-on type oil filters plays a crucial role in maintaining engine cleanliness and performance by allowing oil to flow when excessive pressure occurs. A critical component of this system is endplate-B, which fulfills dual roles: providing structural support and functioning as an interface for oil passage during bypass operations. However, the relatively high material usage and cost associated with the current design of endplate-B pose challenges in manufacturing efficiency. The objective of this study is to minimize the material cost of endplate-B by optimizing its dimensional geometry without compromising its structural and functional performance. The research methodology encompasses dimensional redesign, structural analysis, and performance validation under simulated operating conditions. The findings indicate that strategic dimensional modifications can substantially reduce material usage while preserving mechanical strength and functional integrity. The implementation of this optimized design provides a cost-effective solution for the manufacturing of oil filters and contributes to broader efforts to improve production efficiency in the automotive component industry.

Abstract

The Marengan River serves as a critical freshwater resource for local residents; however, escalating human-induced activities have contributed to its declining water quality. This research aims to evaluate the river's water quality status through an analysis of water quality indicators and a pollution index assessment. The methodology included field observations, water sampling at five selected points along the river, and laboratory examinations measuring BOD, COD, TSS, DO, nitrate, phosphate, and total coliform levels. Findings revealed that BOD and COD concentrations at all locations surpassed the environmental quality standards, with the third sampling point exhibiting the most elevated levels. The calculated Pollution Index values ranged between 5.24 and 7.85, categorizing the river as moderately to heavily polluted. Key pollution contributors are presumed to include household wastewater, agricultural discharge, and organic matter. The study concludes that urgent action is needed to address the environmental degradation of the Marengan River, through wastewater treatment implementation, watershed area restoration, and active community participation. These interventions are recommended to foster sustainable river basin management and improve overall water quality.

Abstract

Calcium oxide (CaO) is the result of the combustion of calcium carbonate (CaCO3) through a calcination process. It can be utilized as an adsorbent. CaO has been demonstrated to be an effective adsorbent in a variety of applications, particularly in the domains of purification and waste treatment. The presence of calcium carbonate has been observed in various types of shells, including those of eggs and shellfish. The objective of this study is to analyze the calcium oxide produced in the shells of duck eggs, quail eggs, green mussels, rice paddy snails, and kupang. The study will employ XRF analysis to determine the shells that produce the highest calcium oxide. The present study employed a combustion time variation ranging from 24 to 120 minutes at an elevated temperature of 800°C. The results demonstrated that duck eggshells calcined for 120 minutes exhibited the highest calcium oxide content. Subsequent analysis using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and UV-Vis spectrophotometry was conducted to ascertain the morphology and adsorption power. Consequently, the processing of shell waste has the dual benefits of reducing environmental impact and generating higher economic value through its utilization as an adsorbent.

Abstract

The tobacco industry is a strategic sector that significantly contributes to the national economy; however, its operations also generate hazardous and toxic waste (B3) that poses a risk to the environment. The objective of this study is to evaluate the B3 waste management system that has been implemented by PT. XYZ, with a particular emphasis on the reduction and management of waste, with a focus on storage practices. A descriptive methodology was employed, combining direct observation and document analysis of existing conditions, which were then compared against the provisions of the Minister of Environment and Forestry Regulation No. 6 of 2021. The evaluation employed a Likert scale to assess the level of compliance with the regulations. The findings indicated that PT. XYZ has been identified as a producer of nine distinct categories of B3 waste, with the primary sources of these materials being attributed to various production activities and maintenance procedures involving machinery. The waste reduction aspect achieved a compliance score of 62.5%, which is categorized as "Good," while the storage aspect reached 95.45%, which is categorized as "Very Good." The overall score was determined to be 78.97%. These results suggest that, despite the effective implementation of waste storage practices, enhancements are necessary in the domains of reporting and the utilization of waste reduction technologies, with the objective of aligning with the principles of sustainable development.

Abstract

In the context of endeavours to furnish adequate housing, the term "housing" is understood to denote a collection of dwellings situated within a communal environment that has been furnished with amenities, infrastructure, and public facilities. The Indonesian government has implemented a subsidised housing programme targeted at low-income individuals (MBR) to address the nation's housing needs. The objective of this study was to ascertain the extent to which subsidised housing type 36 in Katingan Regency is influenced by facilities, price, building quality, location, income, and promotion.  The present study employs a survey approach, which involves the collection of data from subsidised homeowners through the administration of questionnaires. The study surveyed 100 research respondents. The research data analysis employed structural equation modelling and partial least squares. The findings of the analysis demonstrate that variables such as income, price, location, building quality, and promotion exert negligible influence on purchasing decisions. However, it is evident that facility and promotion variables do have a significant impact on purchasing decisions. The final model demonstrates that the variables studied contribute 80% to the purchase decision, with the remaining 20% influenced by variables not covered in this study. This is evidenced by an R2 value of 0.807.

Abstract

The assessment of concrete's compressive strength is of paramount importance in determining the quality of the concrete mixture and its subsequent curing process. The utilisation of water with an optimal pH level during the mixing process has been demonstrated to yield concrete of a superior quality. Despite the abundant water present in peat areas, the pH of this water is typically below ±7. Consequently, further research is necessary to ascertain the suitability of this water for use in concrete mixing. The methodology employed in this study is a quantitative descriptive study that aims to determine the impact of water with a low pH from peat areas on the concrete mixture on the resulting compressive strength. The study commenced with a review of the extant literature, followed by the testing of the concrete quality plan of 23 Mpa using water with a pH of 5.51. The curing process was conducted on days 7, 14, 28, and 90. The findings of the compressive strength examination demonstrated values of 13.1 MPa at the age of seven days, 15.3 MPa at the age of 14 days, and 15.2 MPa at the age of 28 days. Thereafter, a decline was observed at the age of 90 days, resulting in an average compressive strength of 11 MPa. The findings of this study suggest that water with a pH below 7 has a detrimental effect on the quality of concrete.

This study aims to analyze the quantity and quality of biogas generated from various types of organic waste, including mustard greens, water spinach, cabbage, raja banana peels, and Medan orange peels, with fermentation periods of 10, 12, 14, 16, and 18 days. The quantity of biogas was measured based on the volume produced, while its quality was determined by the methane (CH₄) content using the Orsat Gas Analysis Apparatus. The results showed that raja banana peels produced the highest quantity and quality of biogas, with a maximum volume of 1393.2 ml and the highest methane content at 70.39% among all samples. These findings indicate that raja banana peels have significant potential as a substrate for biogas production. This research is expected to serve as a foundation for the development of technologies that utilize organic waste as an efficient, environmentally friendly, and sustainable alternative energy source.
