Abstract

Low rank coal was used as a precursor for the preparation of adsorbed natural gas by chemical activation with KOH-NaOH mixtures. Chemical activation process is commonly used and involves two major steps, which are heating process and chemical treatment process. The experiments were used in the various of temperatures, contact times, and rasio of sample and chemical compound. The result of process was obtained of the iodine number around of 1004 mg/g and 1198 mg/g . Based on the other study, the iodine number at 1004 mg/g and 1198 mg/g have surface area between 1000 mg/g up to 1200 mg/g. These surface area provide a methane capacity between 75 mg/g up to 80 mg/g.

Abstract

Kendilo coal is known as a high-ash content type. Beneficiating such the coal for gasification process needs to wash the coal first. The purpose of washing is to lower the ash content until the permitted amount of about 10%. Samples for coal washing were obtained from PT. Kendilo Coal Indonesia at Pasir Belengkong, Paser Regency, East  Kalimantan. The samples were taken at Bindu and Betitit Block, which containing ash of about 20%–30%. To wash the coal samples, a sink-float method was applied to test its separation characteristic. The washing process employed three sizes fraction, i.e, -12.5+5.6, -5.6+1.18, and -1.18 mm and the separation density was varied between 1.3 to 1.6 g/cc within the interval of 0.1. The liquid solutions as the separation media were made from mixing of perchloroethylene and toluene. From the coal washability curve, the best coal washing in order containing ash content of about 8% in the case of Bindu Block's coal, occurs at the fraction of -12.5+5.6 mm, at density separator of 1.36 g/cc with the recovery of 50%. While the coal of Betitit's Block, the washed coal was 50.82% at similar fraction but at different density separator of 1.39 g/cc.

Abstract

Research on potency test of selected phosphate solubilizing microfungi (PSM) isolates had been conducted. The purpose was to obtain the most potential indigenous microfungi to solubilizing phosphate in bioleaching process. Identification with moist chamber showed that the selected PSM belonged to Penicillium genera. Bioleaching process through measuring process growth and oxalic acid production was effective on the 8th day. Chemical analysis showed that bioleaching process using selected indigenous PSM of phosphate rock was able to increase P2O5 content from 38.40 to 49.70% or improve around 11.30%. Experimental condition for such a recovery was -140+200# of sample size an 5% of percent solid. Mineralogy characters of the leached phosphate rocks showed some micro cracks as well as encapsulation by clay minerals. Not all phosphor element was leached by oxalic acid produced by microfungi.

Abstract

Chemical manganese dioxide has not yet commercially developed in Indonesia. It is supplied by import sector. The fact that Indonesia has manganese resources as many as 60,893,820 tons is inconsistent with above condition. Research on CMD making employed pyrolusite as the raw material with size of - 100+150 mesh. The material was then reacted with sulfuric acid 6% and various concentration of molasses as reductant from 10, 20, 30, 50 and 100 %. The manganese sulfate leachate was then purified using sodium hydroxide and then filtered to have a nonferrous manganese sulfate. The Mn was precipitated from manganese sulfate using sodium bicarbonate. The precipitated manganese carbonate was then calcined at 600°C by injecting the air at various flow rates (100, 200, 300, 400 cc/minute) and different calcination time (2, 3, 4 hours) to get manganese dioxide. The best extracted Mn reached 97.58% using 50% of molasses as a reductant. The precipitation of manganese carbonate had produced sodium carbonate as an impurity. The calcination had not yet changed the manganese carbonate into manganese dioxide due to extremely high calcination temperature.

Abstract

Kaolin from Karangnunggal had been characterized. This kaolin has a brownish white in color and is associated with tuff. To identify characteristics, the samples was analyzed by XRD, optical microscope, AAS, and SEM. The results showed that the kaolin consisted of kaolinite, halloysite, cristobalite, dickite, muscovite, illit and hematit while petrographic analysis describes halloysite, kaolinite, dickite, and quartz. SEM analysis showed the crystal forms such as kaolinite, halloysite and dickite; while chemical analysis confirmed that kaolin composition comprised SiO2 = 65.78 %, Al2O3 = 19.55 %, Fe2O3 = 0.90 % and LOI = 8.29 %. Based on characterization results Karangnunggal kaolin originated from tuff alteration. Referring to such properties, this kaolin can be used as raw material for white ceramic products such as sanitary, ceramic tiles and insulation.

Abstract

Solvent extraction method is one of the methods to reduce ash content in coal to improve the energy efficiency and reduce negative environmental impacts. The use of 1-methyl naphthalene (1-MN) as a solvent in the weight ratio of coal to solvent of 1: 3, 1: 6 and 1: 9 using three coal samples obtained from a coal washing plant, namely ROM (run of mine), DC (dirty coal) and RC (reject coal) was performed. Results show that the ash content of the extracted coals no or significantly low amount (<0.3%) ash contents. The highest extraction yield was obtained at 15.38 % (daf) at DC coal sample and coal to solvent ratio of 1:9, while the lowest at 3.09 % (daf) at ROM coal sample and coal to solvent ratio of 1:3. In addition, the extraction process with a solution of 1-MN also able to reduce moisture content of the coals, as a result the calorific value of the coals were significantly increased.

Abstract

Coal gasification is a chemical reaction that has a purpose to change the original solid coal into gaseous compounds. Converting the coal into gaseous compounds will make the combustion process easier and results in increasing combustion efficiency. The sulfur and nitrogen are also easier to be separated in order to obtain cleaner flue gas. This paper presents kinetic analysis of coal gasification reactions in mini gasifier (or known as GasMin in Bahasa) reactor. The results show that the increase of the air-coal ratio (ACR) affected the maximum temperature of the reactor, which means that an increase of the intake air flow rate will increase the amount of oxygen for combustion reaction. Meanwhile, the increase of the team coal ratio (SCR) will increase flow rate of the mixture of air-steam feed. As a result, the ability of coal gasification has also increased. This will increase gasification efficiency around 3-5% which then will also increase the gas yield. The maximum value of SCR was 0.06, further than that of the yield gas and the q- value will slightly decrease. The simulation result showed that the producer gas was dominated by CO with 26.72% mole fraction; H2 with 14.06% mole fraction, and N2 with 47.88% mole fraction. Meanwhile CO2, CH4 and O2 mole fraction were 5%, 0.24%, and 1.20% respectively

Abstract

Muaraenim coalbeds in Rambutan Field have typically high vitrinitic coal geochemical features that indicates the main target for CBM development. The presence of vitrinite coals in South Sumatra Basin is indicated by high huminite concentration (up to 83 vol.%). The coalbeds are of sub-bituminous rank (Ro<0.5%). They are geochemically characterized by high moisture content (up to 21%) and less than 80 wt.% (daf) carbon content. Minerals are found only in small amounts (<5 vol.%), mostly iron sulfide. Cleat fillings are dominated by kaolinite. This behavior can either be related to the increase coal moisture content to the depth or significant variation in vitrinite content within the deeper seams

Abstract

Compressional (Vp) and shear (Vs) wave velocities within rocks are often investigated by testing in the laboratory because it is easier and cheaper. However, it is more confidence with investigation results derived from the field due to the actual situation and conditions. In the laboratory, the wave velocities are commonly measured using ultrasonic pulse velocities test. But in the field, the velocities are commonly measured directly by several methods such as cross-hole seismic, down-hole seismic, suspension logging, seismic reflection, seismic refraction and spectral analysis of the surface wave. In the present study of field insitu tests, it has used down-hole seismic method. The field insitu test is more expensive than the laboratory test. Hence, this study would evaluate and compare data derived from both of laboratory and field insitu tests. Based on the measurements correlation, it is found that regression equation for each parameter are ... for compressional wave velocities, ... for shear wave velocities, xxxxx for shear modulus, ... for ... modulus of elasticity, for bulk modulus and ... for Lame constants. This equation can be applied to correct the laboratory test data in order to get close results between the laboratory and field insitu tests.

Abstract

Compared to main iron ore minerals, either hematite or magnetite, Indonesian goethite is relatively abundant. However, this is not common to be used as feed material in iron making industries. Limitation in Indonesian high quality iron ore resources, the iron making industries have to seek another iron source such as the low grade iron ore of goethitic ore. Evaluation using thermogravimetric method was employed for analyzing behavior of goethitic composite pellet during reduction. The data show that reduction of goethitic iron ore is started by transforming goethite to hematite and then followed by iron reduction. The reduction was started by Fe3O4 formation at 442 °C and Fe at 910 °C. At those temperatures the composite pellet lost its weight. Identifying the FeO is hardly difficult due to the short range of phase existence.
