Ship maneuverability is important to study because it affects safety. Moreover, if the ship operates in a narrow shipping lane, as experienced by SPUB that operated in Musi River. This research focuses on the experimental process of SPUB maneuvers in open water, especially for the turning circles' movement. The experiment was conducted using a prototype, model SPB-XXOO, which was equipped with components of the instrumentation system such as data logger and propulsion system. Both are integrated into the remote control and computer to perform control functions, calculations, data logging, and data transfer through the wireless communication system. The main controller of the propulsion system is an implanted program to deflect the rudder automatically. Three rudder models with variations in aspect ratios of 1.10, 1.65, and 2.20, also two variations of the rudder angle; 30o and 35o are used to test the model. GPS does the data acquisition process for each experimental process. Based on the analysis of the rudder model's effect, it was found that a rudder with a large aspect ratio provides better performance than a lower aspect ratio. The average increase in the maneuver performance of the rudder with the smallest to the most significant aspect ratio is 17.345%.

Metal-organic framework (MOF) such as ZIF-8 is the tremendous porous material applied in many fields due to high specific surface area and excellent regularity of pores. One technique to improve the physical properties of ZIF-8 with the formation of a composite between a metal oxide and MOF. ZIF-8 and ZIF-8/Al2O3 were successfully synthesized by the solvothermal method with an Al variation of 19%, 38%, and 76%. The ZIF-8/Al2O3 were characterized by XRD, FTIR, SEM, and N2 Physisorption. The diffractogram shows that the appearing of ZIF-8’s peak on 2θ = 7.26; 10.41, 12.66, 16.41, and 17.95°. The morphological of ZIF-8 crystals had a cubic shape. Then the ZIF-8/Al2O3 had different shapes with ZIF-8. Based on the FTIR result, the Zn-N peak appears on 420 cm−1, which indicates the bonding between metal and organic ligand for ZIF-8/Al2O3 has an additional spike on 825 cm−1 due to the vibration of Al−O− Al.

The objective of this research was to study the production of sugar from coconut husk using immobilized crude and commercial cellulose, including temperature and mixing speed during immobilization. The enzyme from Aspergillus Niger was immobilized on chitosan alone and cross-linked with Glutaric Dialdehyde (GDA). Coconut husk waste was grinded and chemically pretreated using NaOH 1% (w/v). Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR) measurement revealed that enzyme was covalently bonded to the support. Cellulose immobilized on chitosan cross-linked with GDA produced more sugar than immobilized on chitosan alone. Both the crude and commercial enzyme had their yield decreased after immobilization. Despite its less enzyme coupled on micro-sized chitosan, reducing sugar yielded by an immobilized enzyme on micro-sized chitosan had a competitive result with macro-sized chitosan. This may due to decreasing mass transfer resistance when using a smaller size of chitosan. Several important factors such as temperature, mixing speed, and purity of enzyme responsible for the performance of sugar produced from insoluble cellulose using cellulose immobilized on insoluble support was thoroughly discussed.

Hydroxyapatite (HA) Ca10.P O4/6.OH/2 is the main component of calcium phosphate-based bone, which is most widely used in biomaterial applications because it has non-toxic and biocompatible properties. But if used alone, HA does not have excellent mechanical strength and is not resistant to pressure. High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE) is a high density of synthetic polymers, and hydroxyapatite (HA) is a vital bone component. Composites of them will make synthetic bones, with HDPE as matrix and HA as fillers. HDPE/HA composites with a composition variation of 0%, 5%, 10% HA were compacted and heated at 180°C for 90 minutes, and then irradiated at a dose of 60 kGy. The effect of adding HA composition and gamma irradiation was observed by hardness testing and characterized using XRD and FTIR. The results showed that the addition of HA increased the hardness of HDPE. From the XRD and FTIR analysis, there was no change in the composite phase after irradiation.

Vegetable waste is an organic waste with high cellulose and hemicellulose and low lignin content. The cellulose and hemicellulose chains can be broken down by pretreatment using sulfuric acid to obtain reducing sugar. To avoid the formation of degradation products that have the potential as inhibitor compounds, the temperature of the pretreatment operation was carried out at 121 and 125 for 60 minutes with sulfuric acid concentrations varying from 0.5% to 1.5% (v/v). The solid and liquid ratio (S/L) was 5% (w/v). From the experiments, the highest total reducing sugars of 7.068 g/L was obtained by pretreatment conditions at 121 for 60 minutes with a sulfuric acid concentration of 1% (v/v). Meanwhile, the lowest total reducing sugar of 2.764 g/L was produced during the pretreatment operating conditions at 125 for 60 minutes with a sulfuric acid concentration of 1% (v/v). Under the present experimental condition, it was found that only a low level of degradation product was formed, which ensures excellent performance of bacterial growth in the subsequent fermentation process.

Tempe and tofu are the main product of soybean commonly consumed as a daily food for the people of Indonesia. So far, soybean is well known to be a source of protein. Indeed, soybean contains secondary metabolites resulting in antioxidant activities. Antioxidants would nullify the negative effect of reactive oxygen and, as a result, could improve and maintain human health. Improvement of awareness of Indonesian people that soybean is good for human health promotion and maintenance could be a trigger to enlarge the soybean production area and increase national soybean production. The present study was undertaken to evaluate the total phenolic content and antioxidant activity of some improved soybean varieties. The observation was done in three replicates, and the standard deviation was made. The results of the present study showed that total phenolic content and antioxidant activity, as measured by ABTS and DPPH, varied among the soybean seeds tested. The variability of total phenolic content and antioxidant activity was not caused by different seed sizes but by the different genetic background encoding for other phenotypes than the seed size. In general, antioxidant activity is positively correlated to total phenolic content. Demas and Tanggamus showed significantly higher antioxidant activity compared to the rest, including imported soybean. Therefore, Demas and Tanggamus could be used as better food sources for human health.

In this study, the oil extraction of Calophyllum inophyllum L using microwave hydro-diffusion gravity method and chemical extraction method were elaborated. The Microwave Hydrodiffusion Gravity (MHG) method is a new green technique which combines microwave-assisted technology and gravitation. It is used to produce oil yield faster and at a low cost. In comparison, a chemical extraction method is a conventional method. The raw material pretreatment, extraction time, microwave power, and the material size have become a crucial factor of extraction. In general, the MHG method yields a higher yield than the chemical extraction method. The MHG method is simple and less solvent. It requires faster extraction time and produces higher oil yield.

The increase in restaurant numbers every year has affected the intensity of competition in the restaurant industry. To be stand out among competitors, the right perceived image of the restaurant is needed and could be maintained by positive word-of-mouth spread in the community. The present study examines if employee behavior comprising of personal and functional service aspects in casual dining restaurants has an impact on customer satisfaction and word-of-mouth intention at casual dining restaurants. Using a survey approach, the questionnaire was distributed to 198 respondents age 17 years and above, which have already been to one of the particular casual dining restaurants in Jakarta. The data were analyzed using structural equation modeling. Based on the study results, both personal and functional aspects can significantly predict customer satisfaction, although the functional aspects have contributed more considerably than the individual aspects. Besides, the result revealed that customer satisfaction would eventually affect word-of-mouth positively. Limitations and future research directions are also discussed.

Rotary cement kiln is the main equipment in the cement industry that has complex dynamic behavior, where any changes will affect the quality of the product and the consumed energy. A one-dimensional model of rotary kiln is needed to understand kiln’s behavior and improve kiln operating and design to achieve the optimum condition of product quality and energy required. In this study, the onedimensional mathematical model of a dry rotary cement kiln with pulverized coal combustion is developed. This model consists of a set of nonlinear ordinary differential equations and nonlinear algebraic equations that describe material and energy balance equations. The model has been solved numerically by using Matlab R2015a, and it has been validated by comparing the result with published experimental data. Based on the result, the steady-state simulation shows that the behavior of the model developed is appropriate with the results presented in the literature. It can be concluded that the model is accurate (error < 6%) to describe the profile of temperature and bed composition along with the kiln. It can be used to obtain a better understanding of kiln’s behavior and improve the kiln operating and design to achieve the optimum condition.

The study of overall gas hold up has been carried out experimentally with the bed expansion. The superficial gas velocities used for the experiments are 6.369 m/s and 10.616 m/s. The experiment is carried out in a bubble column with inside diameters of 7 cm and a height of 100 cm. Gas from the gas cylinder is supplied through a distributor consisting of a perforated plate and glass beads. The perforated plate has a hole diameter of 1 mm and 0.5 mm. Computational Fluid Dynamic (CFD) using a Eulerian coupled with Population Balance model is developed to predict overall gas hold up and bubble size distribution. The effect of superficial gas velocity, perforated plate diameter, gas properties, and initial liquid level on gas hold up were studied. The use of population balance can significantly improve the overall gas hold-up results compared to constant bubble diameter. It is found that several operating conditions affect the whole gas hold up, namely initial liquid level, superficial gas velocity, and differences in gas properties. While the influence of the difference in perforated plate diameter to overall gas holds up, results are small compared to other operating conditions.
