Abstract

Indonesia has committed to climate change mitigation through a sustainable energy transition. Currently, the share of renewable energy in Indonesia’s energy mix only reaches 12 %. One type of renewable energy that the Indonesian government is focusing on is biofuel to reduce consumption and dependence on fossil fuels. Bio-oil produced through pyrolysis has the potential to be used as a biofuel. The chosen pyrolysis process is Co-Pyrolysis, which involves two or more feedstocks. In this study, the process was carried out using waste cooking oil (WCO) and HDPE waste as feedstocks. The process was conducted at 450°C for 30 minutes, with varying masses of both feedstocks. The data obtained were analyzed using mass balance and yield analysis to determine the optimal conditions for producing bio-oil as a hydrocarbon fuel. The optimal condition was found at a mass ratio of HDPE: WCO = 1:4, with a bio-oil yield of 78%. Under these optimal conditions, the conversion of HDPE plastic into heptadecane was 29.39%, and the conversion of oleic acid in waste cooking oil into heptadecane was 38.8%. This also serves as an initial step toward developing a pilot plant-scale process using HDPE plastic waste and waste cooking oil.

Abstract

The development of flipbooks for learning functional groups of organic compounds is needed to enable students to learn independently more easily and interactively. The functional groups of organic compounds have characteristics that should be realised through a systematic approach, namely SATLOC (Systematic Approach to Teaching and Learning Organic Chemistry). Based on the independent learning curriculum, the implementation of learning should emphasise the development of literacy and numeracy skills. Therefore, this research aimed to develop and assess the feasibility of a flipbook on the functional groups of organic compounds using a SATLOC approach oriented toward scientific literacy. The flipbook's development used the ADDIE (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, Evaluation) model. The level of product feasibility is obtained through a content validity test, including materials and media, and limited trials. The average percentage of scores for the content validity test results for materials, media, and limited trials was 88%, 85%, and 85%, respectively. These results indicate that the product is high-quality and feasible for use.

Abstract

The papaya plant offers numerous benefits. Each part of the papaya plant has its benefits, starting from the fruit, stem, roots, flowers, and leaves. Livestock Medicine confirmed the presence of at least 22 types of bioactive compounds. The papaya plant contains active compounds that act as antioxidants, including flavonoids. This research aims to compare maceration and Soxhlet extraction methods on the flavonoid content of papaya (Carica papaya) leaf extract as measured using a UV-Vis spectrophotometer. The methods used to separate flavonoid levels are maceration and Soxhlet extraction. Based on the research that has been carried out, it was found that two treatments were carried out in the maceration method: the first treatment was with 70 % ethanol solvent, namely 36.6 mg / 100g or 3.66 %, for 96 % ethanol solvent, namely 77.6 mg / 100g or 7.76 %. Two treatments are also carried out in the Soxhlet method: 70% ethanol (33.6 mg/100g, 3.36%) and 96% ethanol (92.6 mg/100g, 9.26%). These results indicate that Soxhlet extraction is the most effective method for producing flavonoids in papaya leaf extract, as the levels obtained are higher than those obtained by maceration.

Abstract

Yogurt is a fermented milk product produced by Lactobacillus bulgaricus and Streptococcus thermophilus, which confer a distinctive sour taste. Lactic acid bacteria require a carbohydrate source during growth, which can be obtained from purple sweet potatoes. This study aimed to determine the effect of fermentation time on carbohydrate and protein levels in purple sweet potato yoghurt. This study comprises 3 samples: sample A (yoghurt fermented for 7 hours), sample B (yoghurt fermented for 14 hours), and sample C (yoghurt fermented for 21 hours). The study employed a quantitative design, with carbohydrate testing using the Luff-Schoorl method and protein testing using the Kjeldahl method. The carbohydrate content was 10.36% in sample A, 10.41% in sample B, and 10.02% in sample C; the protein content was 2.23% in sample A, 3.93% in sample B, and 4,03% in sample C.

Abstract

The small bungur plant (Lagerstroemia indica L.) is one of the plants with potential as a medicinal plant. Almost all parts of this plant can be used, namely the leaves, stems, fruit and roots. Bungur leaves can be used for skin diseases, leaf powder for malaria, and decoction of old leaves for diabetes. Bungur leaves contain chemical compounds, one of which is flavonoids. This study aims to determine the total flavonoid content of extracts from young and old leaves of local cherry blossoms (small bungur), using UV-Vis spectrophotometry. The extraction method used was multistage maceration using three different solvents: hexane (nonpolar), ethyl acetate (semipolar), and methanol (polar). The results showed that the average total flavonoid content of young leaf extracts and old leaves of small bungur, measured by UV-Vis spectrophotometry at a maximum wavelength of 410 nm, was 8.810 mg/100g and 7.301 mg/100g, respectively. Among the three solvents used, extracts of young and old leaves of small bungur using hexane and ethyl acetate do not contain flavonoids, whereas extracts of young and old leaves of small bungur using methanol do.

Abstract

This study addresses the limited empirical evidence regarding chemistry teachers’ creative thinking performance in Indonesia. To fill this gap, the present research aims to explore the creative thinking ability profile of senior high school chemistry teachers. This quantitative descriptive study employed an exploratory design and included 21 chemistry teachers from various provinces in Indonesia. Data were collected using a validated creative thinking questionnaire consisting of four indicators: fluency, flexibility, originality, and elaboration. The results indicated that 66.67% of teachers were in the “Very Good” category, 28.57% in the “Good” category, and only 4.76% in the “Fair” category. Among the indicators, fluency showed the highest average score (91.23%), followed by elaboration (86.67%), flexibility (84.95%), and originality (80.38%). These findings indicate that chemistry teachers demonstrate strong abilities in generating and elaborating ideas. At the same time, originality remains comparatively lower due to systemic constraints such as inflexible education policies and limited pedagogical autonomy. The study also highlights the importance of institutional support, training programs, and collaborative learning environments that promote pedagogical creativity among teachers. Enhancing originality, in particular, requires schools to provide more autonomy and flexibility in instructional planning. Ultimately, the results of this study can serve as a reference for educational policymakers and curriculum developers in designing teacher development programs that not only improve content delivery but also cultivate innovative teaching mindsets, essential for meeting the demands of 21st-century learning.

Abstract

Tea dregs are household organic waste materials that can be utilized as low-cost adsorbents for heavy metal removal. Previous studies mainly employed green tea dregs and focused on Cu(II) adsorption, while studies on Fe(III) adsorption using black tea dregs and their direct application to Fe-contaminated water remain limited. This study evaluates the adsorption performance of black tea dregs toward Fe(III) ions and their application in water samples. Batch adsorption experiments were conducted using FeCl₃ solutions at pH 4.8 to determine the optimum contact time (15–90 minutes) and initial concentration (100–300 ppm). Fe(III) concentrations were analyzed using UV–Vis spectrophotometry. The results demonstrated an optimal contact time of 60 min and an optimal concentration, achieving 99.26% adsorption efficiency. Adsorption followed the Langmuir isotherm model with a maximum capacity of 37.04 mg/g (R² = 0.998). Application to well water samples resulted in 83.74% Fe removal, confirming the potential of black tea dregs as adsorbents.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze sodium (Na) levels and estimate the daily intake (EDI) from the consumption of three shellfish species: blood mussels (Anadara granosa), kepah (Polymesoda erosa), and nipah (Geloina coaxans) obtained from Al Mahira Market and the Alue Naga area in Banda Aceh. Sodium concentrations were determined using Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometry (AAS). The results showed that sodium levels ranged from 1186 to 4656 mg/kg (wet weight). The highest EDI was found in blood mussels from Al Mahira Market at 0.997 mg/kg body weight/day (3.489% of the recommended daily sodium intake). In comparison, the lowest was observed in nipah clams from the exact location at 0.247 mg/kg body weight/day (0.866%). Overall, sodium intake from shellfish in both locations contributed less than 5% of the daily sodium limit. These findings indicate that shellfish consumption poses a low sodium-related health risk, although frequent or high intake may still contribute to long-term hypertension risk.
