Abstract

This study investigates the techno-economic feasibility of producing ecoenzymes from wet organic waste, supported by a bibliometric analysis of relevant global research trends. Spanning a 20-year projection, the study evaluated the production costs, potential profitability, and market pricing of ecoenzymes as an environmentally friendly product. Results indicated that even small-scale, home-based production was economically viable, requiring a minimal daily capital investment of $0.27 (or approximately $80,625 annually). With a selling price of IDR 200,000 per kg, the projected annual revenue was IDR 400,000,000. Notably, the return on investment was achieved within the first three years. The bibliometric analysis highlighted a growing global focus on sustainable waste-to-product conversion. The novelty of this study lied in its application of techno-economic modeling to a previously underexplored product, ecoenzymes from wet organic waste. The findings contribute to multiple Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), especially SDG 11 (Sustainable Cities), SDG 12 (Responsible Consumption and Production), and SDG 13 (Climate Action).

Abstract

This study implements the Hazard Identification, Risk Assessment, and Determining Control (HIRADC) method to evaluate and mitigate occupational risks in the manufacturing construction sector. A bibliometric analysis reveals a growing yet insufficient number of studies applying structured risk control frameworks like HIRADC in industrial settings, particularly in developing countries. Using a descriptive approach, data were collected through field observations, interviews, and document analysis. Seven hazards were identified, resulting in five low-risk and two moderate-risk classifications using a probability–severity matrix. Control measures were implemented following ISO 45001:2018 standards, including engineering controls, administrative actions, and personal protective equipment (PPE). The results demonstrate that HIRADC enhances workplace safety awareness and reduces risk levels. This study contributes a practical safety framework for manufacturing environments while reinforcing the relevance of SDG-aligned and bibliometrically justified research in occupational health.

Abstract

This research aims to analyze the techno-economics of plastic waste into ecobrick products from a Collaborative Governance perspective. The research method used is to carry out an economic feasibility analysis of ecobrick production from plastic waste over 20 years, by carrying out an analysis from various points of view. The research results show that the production of ecobricks from plastic waste is economically feasible if it is produced for 20 years. This is proven by the technical analysis of the conversion of 135 tons of plastic waste per year to produce 90,000 ecobricks with a total production cost per bottle of USD 0.308 at a selling price of 0.617. However, when production started, there were quite large losses due to equipment and raw materials, reaching negative values of -1000. Even so, in the third year, there was a relatively stable increase until it reached an increase in cumulative net profit every year. Thus, analytical calculations show the potential for significant profits by achieving the break-even point (BEP). However, fluctuations in raw material prices and operational costs can affect profitability, so there is a need for collaborative governance involvement from the government sector in policies on the use of plastic waste and providing financial assistance to the community as waste producers and the private sector as producers. Therefore, this research will have an impact on the government's goal of achieving environmental cleanliness by creating ecobricks and creating profit opportunities for the community and entrepreneurs/private parties. This study also supports current issues in the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

Abstract

This study aims to introduce a rapid and precise fabrication technique of lumbar vertebrae model that mimics the cortical and cancellous parts of the bone using polylactic acid (PLA) and polyurethane (PU) foam, respectively. An FDM 3D-printing using PLA filament was utilized to fabricate the cortical part, then PU foam was molded into the printed cortical to form the cancellous part. The fabricated model was examined by comparing its dimensions with the stereolithography (STL) model. Sequentially, density measurement, compressive test, and microstructure observation were performed to evaluate the specimen characteristics. The results showed that the dimensions of the vertebrae model agreed well with the STL model, with a discrepancy of less than 4%. The fabricated PU samples exhibited a density in the range of 476–557 kg/m³, elastic moduli of 3.99–7.17 MPa, and a pore size of 136.66–179.80 µm, which are lower than the properties of human bone. Despite that, the PU samples maintain their compressive strength of 0.329–0.589 MPa, which is within the range of cancellous human bone.

Abstract

This study investigates the improvement of thermal performance in smooth and ribbed double-pipe heat exchangers using titanium-based nanofluids. Titanate nanoparticles and nanotubes were synthesized and dispersed in water through a two-step method to ensure stable nanofluid mixtures. Experimental trials were conducted at varying concentrations and flow rates to evaluate temperature difference, heat transfer rate, coefficient, and efficiency. Results indicate a consistent performance increase in ribbed configurations, with titanium nanotubes outperforming their nanoparticle counterparts. This enhancement occurs because the ribbed geometry promotes turbulence while the nanotube’s morphology increases thermal conductivity and energy interaction with the fluid. The combination of structural design and nanofluid science enhances energy efficiency in heat exchanger systems. These findings support the development of more effective thermal systems through the integration of nanotechnology and mechanical design, aligning with advancements in science and engineering education.
