Abstract

The increasing need for wheat flour in Indonesia needs to be overcome by looking for alternatives to wheat flour. Wheat flour has the disadvantage of high sugar content, so flour from local tubers is needed, which is healthier, namely purple sweet potatoes. The disadvantage of local tubers if they are used as flour is their flourishing power so they need to be modified. Hydrogen rich water (HRW) is alkaline water that can be used to modify starch in purple sweet potato flour. The purpose of the study was to determine the effect of HRW modification on water content, swelling power, ash content and color. The method used is soaking using variable pH (5.9), soaking time (15, 30 minutes) and compared with citric acid 1% with soaking time 30 minutes. The optimal analysis results were obtained at pH 9, soaking time of 30 minutes using HRW with a moisture content of 6%, swelling power of 4.1 g/g, ash content of 10%, the fat content of 13.5%, color L, a, b respectively 65.34; -0.33; 16.03.

Abstract

Water is a source of life. The ocean contains enormous potential for daily life, especially for people who inhabitants near the sea. Around two-thirds of Indonesia’s territory is the ocean. In certain conditions, the seawater has been applied for some industrial processing such as in Gresik Petrochemical. This study aims to reduce the Ca2+ and Na+ content of seawater as part of desalination. In this study, zeolites were supplied from the Wonogiri region. The zeolite rocks were crushed and then sieved to the desired size. The zeolites were washed with distilled water and then dried for 4 hours at 400 oC in the furnace. Furthermore, the zeolites were activated using NaOH solution and heated at 90 oC. After that the zeolite was neutralized and dried within four hours at 110 oC. Furthermore, the zeolite is ready to be applied as adsorbent for separating Ca2+ and Na+. In the experiment, the zeolite is placed in a vertical column pipe and seawater is poured from the bottom of the pipe continuously. After circulating for a certain time, the seawater coming out from the column was analyzed for Ca2+ and Na+ content. Based on observation, it was found that the decreasing of Ca2+and Na+ could reach of 29.75% and 25.14%.

Abstract

The low quality of groundwater, along with the increasing demand for drinking water for the community, encourages the need for water treatment technology to produce quality drinking water that is environmentally friendly. One promising method to be applied is membrane technology. In water treatment systems, membrane technology is often not used alone but combined with other methods to improve water quality more effectively. This study aims to apply several methods for the raw water treatment system to drinking water, including membrane filtration and UV irradiation. The removal of chemical pollutants was investigated and compared to the standard value from Minister of Health Regulation No. 492 Year 2010 for drinking water quality. This coupled treatment successfully improved the water quality. The concentration of chemical and biological pollutants such as total dissolved solids (TDS), Fe, Zn, Pb, and total Coliform were reduced by 58.53%; 43.48%; 88.89%; 66.67%.; and 86.15%, respectively. The results indicate that coupling microfiltration membrane to UV irradiation method can be an effective treatment to remove chemical pollutants and enhance the quality of raw water for drinking water preparation.

Abstract

Until now, the application of a combination of biological, physical, and chemical methods to eliminate contaminants from the rubber industry wastewater has not been reported. The purpose of our investigation is to analyze the use of membrane techniques and the effect of pre-treatment of industrial rubber wastewater—pre-treatment by ozone on the performance of the modified PES-nano ZnO membrane. Modified PES-nano ZnO membranes were made with phase inversion techniques and membrane performance based on flux and rejection. Filtration processes with cross-flow filtration systems and ozonation time variations were 1, 2, 3 hours. The ozonation process influenced membrane rejection. The membrane rejection value increased to 89.6%, and ammonia decreased to 4.3 mg/L. The flux value increased to 10.2 L.M-2.h-1 in 1h Ozonatian and decreased with the increasing of filtration time. Pre-treatment with ozonation can increase membrane selectivity and extend membrane life during the filtration process due to reduced fouling. The pre-treatment process time with 3 hours-ozonation was the most violent rejection even though the flux value has decreased

Abstract

Biosorbent that use in this study made from kepok banana peel (Musa Acuminata balbisian). The present study is done to determine the characteristic of biosorbent and the effect of activator type, pH, and ratio of biosorbent for the cadmium removal. The experiments were carried out in batch process, laboratorium scale, room temperature, and 60 mesh of biosorbent size particle. The biosorbent produced by using chemical activation method onto dry banana peel. The variation in this research was the type of activator (H3PO4 and H2SO4), pH of Cadmium (3, 4, and 5), and the ratio of biosorbent dosage to the volume of cadmium solution (1:20, 1.5:20, and 2:20 (g/ml)).  The biosorbent characterized by using Fourier Transform Infra-Red (FTIR). The cadmium concentration analyzed by using Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (AAS). Characterization with FTIR showed the differences in functional groups onto biosorbent before and after adsorption. There was a change in the spectral band of C-H and C=O functional groups for biosorbent that activated with H3PO4 and a change in the spectral band of C-H functional groups for biosorbent that activated with H2SO4. The acid activators showed the best condition was at 90 minutes contact time, pH 4 and the ratio of biosorbent dosage and the volume of 1.5:20 (g/ml). The result showed that the H3PO4 was the best acid activator in the removal of cadmium with amount of 99.91%.

Abstract

This study aims to produce adsorbents from fly ash boilers for palm oil mills and rice husk ash as adsorbents for batik waste. The research design used was Complete Block Design with 2 factors, namely the ratio of rice husk ash mass to fly ash boiler with 3 levels, namely A1 (25%:75%), A2 (50%:50%), A3 (75%:25%), and the concentration factor of HCl with 3 levels, namely B1 (1M); B2 (2M), B3 (3M), which is done 2 times repetition. The experimental stages include boiler fly ash pretreatment, rice husk ash pretreatment, synthesis and activation of adsorbents and adsorption tests on batik wastewater. Furthermore, analysis of COD, TSS and chromium was carried out. The results showed that the A3B2 sample provided optimal adsorption capacity for the analysis of COD, TSS and Chrom metal with values of 57.62 mg/L, 1.43 mg/L and 3.24 ppm, respectively, where there was a decrease in COD of 74%, a decrease in TSS of 97.56% and a decrease in chrom metal ion of 80.43%. This is due to the use of more rice husk ash with the use of HCl solution as an activator can increase the silica active group on the adsorbent thereby increasing the surface area of the adsorbent, where the surface area of the A3B2 sample is 118.24 m2/g.
