This journal presents articles and information on research, development and applications in biomass conversion processes (thermo-chemical conversion; physico-chemical conversion and bio-chemical conversion) and equipment to produce fuels, power, heat, and value-added chemicals from biomass. A biorefinery takes advantage of the various components in biomass and their intermediates therefore maximizing the value derived from the biomass feedstock. A biorefinery could, for example, produce one or several low-volume, but high-value, chemical or nutraceutical products and a low-value, but high-volume liquid transportation fuel such as biodiesel or bioethanol (see also alcohol fuel). The high-value products increase profitability, the high-volume fuel helps meet energy needs, and the power production helps to lower energy costs and reduce greenhouse gas emissions from traditional power plant facilities. Future biorefineries may play a major role in producing chemicals and materials that are traditionally produced from petroleum.

Abstract

Palm kernel shell combustion waste in boiler units called fly ash (FA) is a low-cost alternative material as an adsorbent. FA contains high levels of silica (SiO2) and aluminium oxide (Al2O3). The content of both compounds is an important component as an adsorbent. FA was used to absorb methylene blue (MB) continuously from synthetic dye wastewater. The study was conducted by continuous system process optimization using Response Surface Methodology (RSM) Box-Behnken design. MB was flowed on a set of fixed-bed adsorption columns with independent variables in this study are X1 (bed height; 8, 12, 16 cm), X2 (contact time; 90, 120, 150 min) and X3 (flow rate; 2, 4, 6L/min). The dependent variables were Y1 (removal efficiency) and Y2 (adsorption capacity) with matrix design by Box-Behnken. Optimisation of MB removal in this study was obtained at X1 = 16 cm, X2 = 150 min and X3 = 2 L/min with removal efficiency of 98.45% and adsorption capacity of 0.115 mg/g. FA pores according to SEM analysis were obtained at 1-2 µm. Likewise, the results of EDX analysis showed that there were N and Cl atoms in FA after the adsorption process. This shows that FA is able to adsorb MB.

Abstract

The development of orthopedic implant materials has become an important topic of discussion lately. The SS-316L alloy is widely used as an implant material due to its relatively low cost, corrosion resistance, and ease of production. However, metal alloys, especially SS-316L, are prone to ion release into the blood over time. Therefore, TCP or tricalcium phosphate [Ca3(PO4)2] is needed to coat the surface of SS-316L, preventing ion release into the blood and enhancing the biocompatibility of the implant material. In this study, TCP coating was applied to the SS-316L substrate using the electrophoretic deposition technique. The influence of deposition time on changes in microstructure and mechanical properties is the main focus of this study. The results of the coating technique indicate that the deposition yield increases with the deposition time. Morphological testing results show that increasing deposition time improves coating quality by increasing the thickness of the coating layer and preventing layer peeling. The coating process also reveals the accumulation of layers in certain areas and the formation of thin layers in other regions. A deposition time of 30 minutes results in a coating thickness ranging from 48.7 to 57.9 µm. Hardness testing, conducted with indentation loads of 50, 100, and 300 gf, indicates that longer deposition times and higher indentation loads during hardness testing result in reduced material hardness.

Abstract

This study critically evaluated the potential of Refuse Derived Fuel (RDF) as a sustainable substitute for coal in the cement manufacturing process. Using Emplacement Pluit's waste as a primary source, three distinct RDF variations were analyzed: RDF A (comprised purely of PET Charcoal), RDF B (a 50-50 combination of PET Charcoal and organic waste), and RDF C (solely organic waste). Among the parameters evaluated were moisture content, ash content, and calorific value. The results indicated RDF A's superior quality, with a moisture content of 2.6%, ash content of 0.7%, and a calorific value of 25.1 MJ/kg. In stark contrast, RDF C exhibited a high waste reduction potential at 80.5%, but its calorific value fell short of Korean standards. RDF B, balancing quality and reduction potential, achieved a 98.9% waste reduction and met Korean RDF standards, making it the most viable alternative to coal in cement production. The study underscores the significant potential of integrating RDF in industrial practices, particularly cement kilns. It offers insight into optimizing waste management strategies in line with the 'zero-waste' vision.

Abstract

The production of banana plants (Musaceaea sp.) ranks first in agricultural output in Indonesia, but this is not balanced by the processing of waste from banana peels, which is a large amount. Therefore, an attempt is made to use banana peel waste as raw material for making pectin. Pectin is used as a functional component in the food industry because of its ability to form thin gels and stabilize proteins. Pectin is also used as a filler in the paper and textile industries, and as a thickener in the rubber industry. This research aims to determine the effect of extraction time and temperature on the quality of pectin from Kepok banana peels. The method used is extraction through Ultrasonic Assisted Solvent Extraction (UASE) in 40 kHz. Banana peels that had been dried and ground into powder were extracted with 0.1 N HCl at temperatures of 70 oC, 80 oC and 90 oC. The variables used in this extraction are variations in extraction time, namely 60 minutes and 80 minutes. The extracted solution is filtered and thickened to half the volume of the original filtrate by heating, then the pectin is thickened using acid ethanol. The pectin precipitate was washed using 96% alcohol until it was free of chloride and the precipitate was separated using a vacuum and then dried in an oven then to analysis of pectin using methoxyl and galacturonate as method to determine pectin quality form banana peel waste. The research results showed that the pectin quality was optimum at a temperature of 90 oC for 80 minutes with a methoxyl content of 4.12% (low methoxyl) and a galacturonic acid content of 79.96%.

Abstract

The Katuk plant (Sauropus androgynus L. Merr) is a natural substance with proven efficacy in treating diabetes, obesity, and inflammation. It also possesses antioxidant, lactation-inducing, and antibacterial properties. This study aimed to investigate the impact of varying concentrations of katuk leaf extract on characteristics of the moisturizer cream produced. The study involved extracting katuk leaves using the maceration method for 24 hours, utilizing ethanol as the solvent. The extraction process resulted in a yield of 1.86%. The final yield contains alkaloid chemicals, flavonoids, terpenoids, saponins, and tannins. The formulations employed in this investigation utilized the codes F0, F1, F2, and F3, representing the content of katuk leaf extract at 0%, 2%, 4%, and 6%, respectively. The cream generated exhibited an identifiable aroma of katuk and had a hue ranging from light green to blackish brown, as determined by organoleptic testing. The pH values of specimens F0, F1, F2, and F3 were 7, 7, 7, and 8, respectively. The spread ability measurements for specimens F0, F1, F2, and F3 were 5.3 cm, 5.5 cm, 6 cm, and 6.1 cm, respectively. According to the findings of this investigation, specimens F0, F1, F2, and F3 adhered for 5 seconds, 4 seconds, 4 seconds, and 5 seconds, respectively. The formulation F2 is the most superior product generated in this investigation. This is because this specimen exhibits the highest level of respondent satisfaction compared to the other specimens. This formulation exhibits antioxidant activity with a per cent inhibition of 30.51% and an IC50 value of 84.63 ppm. The face moisturizing cream derived from katuk leaf extract possesses a high antioxidant potency, placing it in the active/strong category.

Abstract

Used cooking oil is a waste that is produced every day and is increasing. Used cooking oil cannot be consumed again because it contains dangerous substances that will cause disease, but it also cannot be thrown away since it will pollute the environment. Therefore, it is necessary to process used cooking oil, one of which is purification using the adsorption method. The adsorption method for used cooking oil can be derived from green dregs because greens contain antioxidants which can reduce the content of dangerous substances in used cooking oil. In this study, we used variations in adsorbent mass (10 gr, 20 gr, 30 gr, 40 gr, and 50 gr) and stirring time (25 minutes, 45 minutes, 65 minutes, 86 minutes, and 105 minutes) to obtain the highest purification results. was the best and it was found that the adsorbent mass of 50 grams of green dregs and a stirring time of 105 minutes had the best results in being able to reduce the peroxide value, air content and free fatty acids. Next, the purified used cooking oil will be processed into floor cleaning liquid soap with the addition of 2 ml, 4 ml, 6 ml, 8 ml and 10 ml of pineapple peel extract. The results of the floor cleaning soap showed that the best results were 2 ml based on the alkaline number, pH and anti-bacterial test.
