Abstract

The structure and size of crystal are are important aspects of magnetic minerals pumice from Ngarai Sianok  to understand the geological processes of the area. Volcanic rocks in Ngarai Sianok contain magnetic minerals with unknown crystal structures. The crystal structure and size in pumice are analyzed using X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), where the type of magnetic mineral and crystal structure are determined by comparing the data measurement with the mineral database, while the crystal size can be determined using the Scherrer equation. Magnetic minerals in pumice from Ngarai Sianok are magnetite (Fe3O4) with a cubic mineral structure, ilmenite mineral (FeTiO3) with a hexagonal structure, and hematite mineral (Fe2O3) with a rhombohedral structure. The crystal size of magnetic minerals vary. The lowest is at an angle of 18.25 with a FWHM value of 0.1279 which results in a crystal size of 62.8995 nm. The highest crystal size is at an angle of 35.46 with a FWHM value of 0.0624, resulting in a crystal size of 133.6609 nm. FWHM value is inversely proportional to the size of the crystal, meaning that the size of the crystal formed is getting smaller with increasing FWHM. The average size of pumice crystals formed in Ngarai Sianok was calculated to be 102.6392 nm, the small crystal size indicates the rapid cooling of magma, usually occurring during explosive eruptions.

Abstract

West Sumatra was one of the regions on the island of Sumatra that had a high level of earthquake proneness. There were five segments of the Sumatran fault in this region. Normal stress distribution analysis could be carried out to determine tectonic activity in earthquake-prone areas. This research used the stress inversion method to identify normal stresses, which could trigger or inhibit fractures. The data used involved 17 fault plane parameters (strike, dip, rake) from earthquakes with a magnitude of ≥4.7 that occurred in the West Sumatra region from 1967-2023. The type of fault analysed was strike-slip, and the earthquake's epicenter was located on land. The results of this research provided an overview of the position and direction of normal stress due to earthquakes in the West Sumatra region. The distribution of the normal stress position of the fault segment was shown through the pressure and tension axes (P/T), with respectively sigma1, sigma2, and sigma3 having azimuth/plunge values of 353.990/4.760, 247.260/73.860, and 85.310/15.380. The direction of maximum normal stress (sigma1) is spreading in the northern part of the fault segment. In contrast, intermediate normal stress (sigma1) is situated in the western sector of the fault segment, while minimum normal stress (sigma3) is in the eastern part of the fault segment in this region. Analysis of the normal stress distribution is showing that the Talamau segment is being dominated by maximum normal stress, indicating that the Pasaman area and its surroundings are being considered vulnerable to faults and earthquakes.

Abstract

The current research is conducted to study the effect of varying compositions of SiO2-Chitosan on the changes occurring in the functional groups available in cellulose paper that shows hydrophobic nature, which can be used for water and oil separation purposes. The composite layer studied is the silica-chitosan solution coated over the cellulose paper using the dip-coating method. Varying compositions of SiO2-chitosan studied are (0.6g:0.3g), and (0.3g:0.6g). Characterization by FTIR revealed the presence of the main functional groups, i.e., Si-O-Si, C-H, C-O, N-O, N-H, C-N, and O-H, with a range of 938-3784 cm⁻¹ strain. The identification of these functional groups attests to the incorporation of the SiO2-chitosan compound on the surface of the cellulose paper. This functionalization imparted a hydrophobic layer, as demonstrated by the capacity of each composition to cause the characteristic spectrum of the SiO2-chitosan compound. The results of this study confirm that the modification of SiO2-Kitosan composition has significant influences on the chemical properties and physical stability of the composite coating. This result explains the great potential of cellulose-based materials in water and oil separation technology. In addition, these results enable the development of sustainable materials with great efficiency in fluid separation applications.

Abstract

The introduction of organic compound enriched wastewater into aquatic environments can cause a drop in dissolved oxygen, with significant consequences for microorganisms living in such environments. Ultimately, this problem jeopardizes the survival of higher trophic level animals in such environments. In recent times, new membrane technology development has received a lot of attraction, with membrane processes becoming increasingly utilized in oily wastewater separation processes. Membrane processes have proven effective in the removal of oils in water during such separation processes. An effective membrane for such a purpose is a silica composite membrane with a hydrophobic property, synthesized with a cellulose paper substrate and a silica of rice husks for use in creating an active membrane layer. In one part of a current investigation, dyeing duration impact was considered through changing immersion times for SiO2-chitosan nanocomposite coated filter paper for 5, 10, 15, and 20 minutes. In such a study, contact angles for 5, 10, 15, and 20-minutes' immersion times have been measured and documented at 94.35°, 98.53°, 101.04°, and 104.34°, respectively. In addition, an evaluation was performed to assess water and oil separation effectiveness with cellulose paper coated with SiO2/Chitosan composite, with efficiencies of 80%, 85%, 87.5%, and 90%, respectively, documented for such processes.

Abstract

Volcanic ash consists of fine particles that are ejected into the atmosphere during an eruption of a volcano. The volcanic ash that will be tested in this study comes from the Aia Angek area of West Sumatra, which erupted in December 2023 to February 2024. The goal of this research was to assess the quantity of montmorillonite found in the volcanic ash originating from Marapi. In order to reach this objective, various examinations were conducted for characterization utilizing XRF, XRD, FTIR and SEM. The XRF data results show that the largest montmorillonite elements in volcanic ash are SiO2 dan Al2O3. The XRD test results show that there are 6 types of montmorillonite contained in Marapi volcanic ash, namely Chlorite-vermiculite-montmorillonite, Montmorillonite (Clay), Illite-Montmorillonite regular, Monmorillonite, Montmorillonite 15-A and Montmorillonite heated. The FTIR test results show that the peak band 3669-467/cm contains the chemical composition of montmorillonite. Based on the SEM test analysis, it shows the morphology of montmorillonite from Marapi volcanic ash with a particle size of 301,9 nm and a porosity size of 151,6 nm. Thus, based on the results of the five characterizations carried out, it is known that the Marapi volcanic ash does contain complex montmorillonite.
