Abstract

This paper presents the result of vibration monitoring, simulation and the analysis of conveyor driving unit of a coal transporter. In steam power plant, coal transporter is on of the fundamental equiptment for coal handling and energy supply. Conveyor driving unit (CDU) is the unit in a coal tranporter which drive the conveyor and transport coal from the stockpile/coal yard to the burner. CDU failure cause instability in coal handling process and influence the production capacity of the power plant. To maintain the reliability of the coal transporter, vibration based condition monitoring is conducted. The vibration of CDU is affected by the tranported load, luffing angle and conveying rate. In this paper, the report is focused on the vibration monitoring result and analysis of the influence of the luffing angle and conveying rate (transported load) to the vibration.The CDU is mathematically modeled and its vibration is simulated. Here, conveyor belt tension at driver pulley is assumed to be the main source of vibration,which has frequency of 1.237Hz. Measurement results show that maximum amplitude occurs at frequency of 24.5 Hz, which is closed to the driving motor of the conveyor. The simulation results show that bigger luffing angle and conveying rate increase the vibration amplitude, specifically at horizontal (x) direction.

Abstract

Academic performance is an important key to student success or failure. Therefore, academic performance prediction become a popular research on education. In general, several researches used GPA to predicting academic performance. However, there are some aspect that also plays a role in student academic performance, like friend relationship. So, this paper will analyze the correlation between academic performance and friend relationship. Friendship will be seen from communication frequency between students when become University delegation. Each students friend will have weight to show their closeness. In this paper, proposed method gives friendship weight based on communication frequency proportion between student among all student in one faculty. Indeed, close friends have a higher weight than other friends. So, the friendship weight sorted into descending order to get the closest friend. Then, their GPA convert into academic label, i.e. cumlaude, excellent, very good, or drop out. Furthermore, label will be compared to obtaining validation of our hypotheses that friendship plays a role in academic performance achievement. We use scholar student delegation dataset in competition from year 2015 in 7 study programme with 160 scholar students. Experimental results showed that the proposed method can predict academic performance 43% from the total data sample.

Abstract

Remu River has been being a water resource for residents in Sorong City. Development in this city lead to water quality degradation of Remu River. Existing (2016) and prediction condition of Remu River in the next 2 years were defined by the behavior of BOD, COD, Fe, and DO that proceed using a dynamic program, STELLA 9.1.3. Study area involved 6 sampling points. Simulation results showed that BOD, COD, and Fe concentrations tend to increase in the next 2 years, even BOD and COD concentrations at several sampling points was higher than water quality standard, according to Government Regulation No. 82/2001. Meanwhile, DO concentration was below the limit in 4th to 6th sampling points. Pollution control strategy was conducted by setting up three scenarios: (1) procurement of Waste Water Treatment Plant (WWTP), (2) river sediment dredging, and (3) combination of both scenario. Combination of sediment dredging and procurement of WWTP scenario estimated to reduce BOD concentration to 89.82%, COD concentration to 87.02%, and increase DO concentration to 19.07%. So that, the 3rd scenario was determined as the best strategy to improve Remu River water quality, although Fe concentration cannot be controlled as it comes from nature.

Abstract

An experiment was conducted in MARIA reactor as the part of reactivity measurement inside the reactor using method of fixed period while MARIA reactor was being started up. It was important as performance indicator that shim rod worked well and able to maintain reactivity on the level not exceeding the value of 1$ by compensating the excess reactivity to provide reactor safety. The measurement was done directly at MARIA reactor control room on April 28th, 2015 using digital reactimeter, therefore, it allowed performing continuous measurement of reactor reactivity. Data at shim rod – 5 (PK-5) was collected, with time interval 0.49 S. Preliminary calculations were done by neglecting the presence of photoneutrons. For the result, at full shim rod insertion (1067 mm) absorbed reactivity with value 0,92$ was obtained. The result showed that the shim rod worked well because the reactivity never exceeding 1$. The result as an early parameter that guarantees MARIA reactor safety from burning out the claddings of fuel elements and radiological accident.

Abstract

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%.

Abstract

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.

Abstract

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.

Abstract

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.

Abstract

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.
