Abstract

This study investigates the thermoelectric performance of polyaniline (PANI) doped with textile dye waste, specifically methyl orange (MO) and congo red (CR), as sustainable alternative dopants. Polyaniline was synthesized via oxidative polymerization using ammonium persulfate as the oxidant at varying dopant concentrations (0.1–1.0 M), with three independent replicates per condition to ensure statistical validity. Characterization was performed using FTIR spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and four-probe electrical conductivity measurements. Thermoelectric performance was evaluated through the Seebeck coefficient (S), power factor (PF = S²σ), and figure of merit (ZT). Results show that PANI-CR 0.5 M yielded the highest Seebeck coefficient of 42.7 µV/K, electrical conductivity of 127.3 S/cm, and power factor of 2.31 × 10⁻⁴ W/m·K². The ZT value obtained reached 0.434 at the optimal temperature of 340 K, a significant improvement of 340% compared to undoped PANI, substantially superior to PANI-HCl (ZT = 0.040) and competitive with organic thermoelectric materials reported in recent literature (e.g., PANI-CSA: 1.83 × 10⁻⁴ W/m·K² at 300 K). Unlike conventional approaches using synthetic dopants, this waste-to-material strategy demonstrates that textile dye waste can be valorized as functional dopants, offering dual environmental benefits: reducing water pollution (0.01–1 mg/L threshold) while producing low-cost organic thermoelectric materials. These findings highlight the potential for scaling to industrial thermoelectric devices and battery thermal management systems. Future work will explore composite materials with carbon nanostructures and optimization through polymerization condition engineering.

Abstract

This study evaluates the mechanical, durability, and carbon sequestration performance of a 1:1 blend of Chlorella vulgaris and Spirulina platensis biomass as a supplementary cementitious material (SCM) in concrete for tropical coastal infrastructure. Five replacement levels (0%, 3%, 5%, 7%, and 10% by weight of cement) were tested under ambient tropical conditions (28–32°C, 75–85% RH) reflecting West Sumatra's coastal environment. Compressive and flexural strength, water absorption, chloride penetration resistance, and CO₂ sequestration via thermogravimetric analysis were comprehensively assessed. Results indicate that 5% replacement (MA-5) achieved the optimal balance: 28-day compressive strength of 31.4 MPa (6.4% below control), while demonstrating 12.3% improved chloride resistance and a net carbon sequestration rate of 38.7 kg CO₂/m³ of concrete. Scanning electron microscopy confirmed microalgae cell-wall fragments filling interfacial transition zones, reducing porosity by 11.2% and enhancing matrix densification. The findings demonstrate that microalgae-incorporated concrete at 5% OPC replacement is a technically viable, low-carbon alternative for coastal tropical construction, offering both structural adequacy and environmental benefits. Adoption in Indonesia's green building programs is recommended, with future research needed to validate performance at industrial scale and assess long-term durability under field marine exposure.

Abstract

The growing accumulation of petroleum-based plastic waste has intensified the search for biodegradable alternatives from renewable resources. This study investigated the effect of clove essential oil (CEO) on the mechanical and barrier properties of composite bioplastic films from semi-refined carrageenan and cassava starch (30:70) with 30% glycerol. Unlike previous studies using purified biopolymers or focusing solely on antimicrobial effects, this work uniquely evaluates CEO as a dual-function agent plasticizer and hydrophobic barrier enhancer within a low-cost carrageenan–starch matrix to identify the optimal loading for balanced packaging performance. Films were prepared by solution-casting with CEO at 0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, and 2.0% (w/w). Increasing CEO content decreased tensile strength (18.2 to 12.1 MPa) and Young's modulus (612 to 365 MPa), while elongation increased (22.4% to 41.6%). WVP and oxygen permeability decreased by 39% and 43%, respectively, alongside an increase in contact angle (68.4° to 89.6°), indicating enhanced hydrophobicity. FTIR confirmed physical dispersion without new covalent bonding. Films remained biodegradable, though higher CEO slowed degradation. The 1.0–1.5% CEO formulation offered the most balanced combination of flexibility, barrier performance, and degradability for sustainable food packaging.
