Abstract

Noise pollution is sound that you do not want to hear or is known as noise. If people hears loud noises continuously, it can disrupt hearing function. Therefore, it is necessary to have noise control by making an acoustic material that will be coated on the room's walls. A cheap and environmentally friendly alternative material is using banana stem waste from the fibre taken and with polypropylene as a fibre binder. This research aims to determine the effect of variations in the mass composition of banana stem fibre with the matrix polypropylene on the value of the acoustic properties and porosity, and determine the relationship between porosity with acoustic properties. Characteristics of the acoustics that will be measured are sound absorption coefficient, sound reflection coefficient, and transmission loss. The method used is using a characterizaton tool with one microphone impedance tube and porosity test tool with a digital scale. Acoustic material is made by varying the mass percentage in the ratio of polypropylene and midrib fibre banana, namely 90%:10%; 85%:15%; 80%:20%; 75%:25%; and 70%:30%. Based on the research results, it is known that the more fibre composition in the composite, the sound absorption coefficient values, transmission loss values, and porosity values were higher produced, but the resulting sound reflection coefficient value was lower. Then, the relationship between porosity with acoustic properties was that the higher porosity value, the resulting sound absorption coefficient and transmission loss value are higher too. However, the resulting sound reflection coefficient value was getting lower.

Abstract

The building structure plays a crucial role in distributing the loads exerted by the building onto the ground, ensuring its strength to prevent collapse or damage. A common form of building damage is cracking due to vibrations. These vibrations can originate from both inside and outside the building, often at low frequencies. To address this, a vibration measuring instrument needs to be designed using a 3-Dimensional Accelerometer sensor to facilitate easier detection and data acquisition, thereby minimizing errors in measuring low vibrations caused by human activities that impact the durability of building structures. The research focuses on developing a tool to measure 3-dimensional vibrations in buildings using an Internet of Things (IoT)-based accelerometer sensor. This engineering research aims to design a 3-dimensional vibration measuring instrument. The resulting design includes performance specifications and system design specifications. The system's performance specifications cover the electronic circuit of the tool and the design of the measurement value monitoring display. The system employs the MPU6050 sensor to measure vibrations, with Arduino Uno as the main microcontroller and NodeMCU ESP32 for transmitting measurement data from Arduino to the web server. Experimental tests were conducted to measure vibration frequency by repeatedly dropping a 100-gram load from a height of 70 cm onto a wooden table. The load was dropped 10 times, maintaining a 2 cm distance from the coordinates of the measuring device. The experiments provided real-time measurement results, showing varying frequencies each second. The device successfully detected very low vibrations, with a minimum recorded frequency of 11.26 mHz and a peak of 93.18 mHz in the sixth experiment. The varying results across experiments were influenced by factors such as measurement sensitivity, filtering, sampling frequency, calibration, data processing, and noise minimization. The analysis confirmed that the tool could detect vibrations every second with high sensitivity, making it suitable for real-time detection of various low-frequency vibrations under consistent load conditions

Abstract

This research is a study of the structure of nanocomposites whose composition is varied between Fe3O4 and Graphene Oxide. The purpose of this study is to determine the structure of Fe3O4-Graphene Oxide nanocomposites from corn cob waste. This type of research is experimental research, which begins with sample preparation from corn cob waste, carbon activation, graphene oxide synthesis, sonication and neutralization of graphene oxide, and synthesis of Fe3O4-Graphene Oxide nanocomposites using the ball milling method by varying the composition. Crystal size and structure were characterized by XRD, functional groups were characterized by FTIR, surface morphology, particle size and porosity were characterized by SEM. The results of the research on the structure of Fe3O4-Graphene Oxide nanocomposites from corn cob waste, obtained XRD results show that the crystal structure is Hexagonal, Cubic, and Orthorhombic with the average crystal size of the best Fe3O4-Graphene Oxide composition variation at 30%: 70% composition, because the particle size produced is quite small from other composition variations, namely 39.19 nm. FTIR results show that all compositional variation comparisons have C-H, O-H, C≡C, C=O, C=C, C-O, and Fe-O bond functional groups. SEM results show the morphology of Fe3O4 is spherical, while the morphology of graphene oxide is in the form of chunks. The particle size value gets smaller as the Fe3O4 composition increases, because the more Fe3O4 composition causes the surface of the graphene oxide particles covered to get bigger. In addition, particle size can also affect the porosity of nanocomposites, the smaller particle size can increase porosity because more particles can occupy space.

Therefore, this study aims to determine the optimization of carbonization time on coconut pulp activated carbon for thermoelectric materials. The coconut pulp was dried using an oven at 105ºC and then carbonized using a furnace. Carbonization time variations used were 10 minutes, 15 minutes, and 20 minutes with temperature variations from previous research, namely 300ºC. Then the results of carbonization were mashed using a mortar and pestle and filtered using a 120 mesh sieve. Carbon was activated with 0.5 M HCl (1:10) as much as 25 grams for 24 hours. After activation, the carbon was filtered, washed with distilled water and dried using an oven. Then the coconut pulp activated carbon was characterized by testing water content, vapor content, ash content, and bound carbon content. The test results show that based on SNI 06-3730-1995 the lowest water content is at 10 minutes carbonization time which is 1.72%, the lowest steam content is at 10 minutes carbonization time which is 8.54%, the lowest ash content is at 20 minutes carbonization time which is 0.55%, and the highest bound carbon content is at 10 minutes carbonization time which is 90.65%. The results showed that the optimization of carbonization time on coconut pulp activated carbon for thermoelectric materials was 10 minutes.
