Abstract

This research aims to evaluate the potential of pineapple peel as a raw material for making activated carbon, as well as comparing the effectiveness of NaOH and NH4OH activators in the activation process. Activated carbon is produced through a carbonization and chemical activation process, then its quality is tested based on the Indonesian National Standard (SNI) 06-3730-1995. The research results show that activated carbon from pineapple peel meets SNI standards in terms of ash content and water content, with each not exceeding the maximum limits of 10% and 15%. The yield of activated carbon activated with NH4OH (87.5%) was higher than NaOH (79.4%). In addition, the water content of activated carbon with NH4OH (1.07%) is lower than NaOH (1.42%). Although the iodine absorption capacity of activated carbon from pineapple peel is still below the minimum SNI standard (750 mg/g), NH4OH shows better results in adsorption of the heavy metal Cu (0.0041 mg/g) than NaOH (0.0015 mg/g ). The FTIR spectrum shows the presence of diverse functional groups, indicating complex chemical interactions. Based on the results of this research, pineapple peel has good potential as a raw material for activated carbon, with NH4OH as a more effective activator in improving the quality and adsorption ability of activated carbon.

Abstract

Phenol is a hazardous organic pollutant commonly found in industrial wastewater and is difficult to degrade through conventional treatment methods, thus requiring more effective and sustainable approaches. Photocatalytic degradation using TiO₂ has been widely explored; however, its performance is limited by rapid electron–hole recombination and low surface area. Combining TiO₂ with zeolite enhances adsorption capability and increases the availability of active sites, offering a promising strategy to improve photocatalytic efficiency. This study aims to analyze the kinetic behavior of phenol degradation using a TiO₂/zeolite composite and to determine the optimum irradiation time based on a pseudo-first-order kinetic model. Irradiation times of 15, 30, 45, 60, and 75 minutes were applied, and phenol concentrations were measured using UV–Vis spectrophotometry at 270,20 nm. The results show rapid degradation during the first phase (15-30 minutes), with removal efficiency increasing from 83,014% to 87,315%. After 30 minutes, the degradation rate becomes nearly constant, indicating the attainment of photocatalytic dynamic equilibrium. The -ln(Ct/C0) plot reveals two distinct reaction phases: an initial high-rate phase followed by a plateau phase. Therefore, 30 minutes is identified as the most efficient irradiation time, representing the point at which maximum degradation is achieved before the reaction rate significantly decreases. These findings provide meaningful insight into the photocatalytic kinetics of TiO₂/zeolite composites and support their potential application in phenolic wastewater treatment.

Abstract

Wound healing is a complex biological process involving the coordinated progression of hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling. Chronic and infected wounds often fail to progress through these stages due to persistent inflammation, oxidative stress, and microbial biofilm formation. In recent years, natural bioactive compounds have gained attention as potential therapeutic agents due to their multi-target biological functions and biocompatibility. This review synthesizes evidence from original in vitro, in vivo, and clinical studies to evaluate the mechanisms of natural compounds, including curcumin, Centella asiatica derivatives, honey-based molecules, flavonoids, and chitosan biomaterials in modulating the wound-healing process. The findings demonstrate that natural compounds can enhance platelet-mediated hemostasis, suppress inflammatory cytokines through NF-κB inhibition and Nrf2 activation, stimulate angiogenesis via VEGF and TGF-β signaling, promote fibroblast proliferation and collagen synthesis, and exert antimicrobial and antibiofilm effects against drug-resistant pathogens. Formulation strategies such as hydrogels and nanoparticle delivery systems were also shown to improve compound stability, tissue penetration, and therapeutic outcomes. These results indicate that natural bioactive wound-healing agents provide a promising avenue for managing both acute and chronic wounds, particularly in contexts where antibiotic resistance or delayed healing presents clinical challenges.
