Abstract

Oil production that flows from the Platform to the FSO (Floating Storage and Offloading) "A" is derived from PT. "B" and the "C" Oil Company in the Madura Strait. The total oil production flowing from the Platform to the "A" FSO is currently around 6000 BOPD. As a result of the delivery system using the same channel, a problem arises, namely oil losses between the Platform as a delivery point and FSO "A" as a receiving point. Besides that, the water that is involved in the oil distribution process will be a deduction factor that will be used as a correction for oil shipments, the more water the less amount of oil will be received at FSO "A". The oil samples that have been taken are then observed for their characteristics, namely density, composition (%-mole), BS&W, emulsion, flash, shrinkage at PPPTMGB "Lemigas" Laboratory Jakarta. The specific gravity of samples is around 1,018. While the characteristics of the two are different from the characteristics of sea water; this difference is shown by the results of SG (1,018 vs 1,025) and the salt content of sea water is much higher than the water formation of PT "B" and PT "C". The oil samples of PT "B" and PT "C" have almost the same SG, which is 0.79. BS&W oil in both ships is quite low; this shows that the separation of oil and water on the Platform went quite well. However, BS&W samples in incoming FSO "A" are very high, at 5%; this indicates an off-set at the water-oil interface level settling time on the Platform separator so that water can be joined with the oil flow from the Platform to the FSO "A"

Abstract

Indonesia has rare earth mineral resources that have the potential to be processed into beneficial products for human life. In the processing of rare earth mineral resources rarely needed waste treatment devices to reduce contaminants in liquid waste process results. The method of processing with the electrocoagulator system is used because its does not require high levels of technology and costs. In research conducted wastewater treatment process results of xenotime by using method of electrocoagulation with variation of voltage and time of contact. Digestion of xenotime sand using concentrated sulfuric acid and in the content of xenotime sand there is a phosphate anion that binds with metal Y, Dy, Gd, La, Ce, Nd. Xenotime wastewater treatment process with electrocoagulation method is set at voltage variation 7V-13V with variation time of 0-120 minutes. The results of analysis with High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) showed that there is a decrease in the concentration of phosphate and sulfate anions in the filtrate of the processing results of xenotime wastewater using electrocoagulation method. The lowest concentrations of phosphate and sulfate anions occur in the 13 V voltage condition with 120 minutes of 1.180% and 0.564%.

Abstract

Direct Methanol Fuel Cell (DMFC) is a fuel cell technology that convert chemical energy into electrical energy directly. Sulfonated polyether ether ketones (sPEEK) have potential as proton exchange membranes. Modification of sPEEK with poly vinyl alcohol (PVA) and adding graphene oxide (GO) is expected to reduce methanol cross over. This study was designed to examine the characteristics of the sPEEK-PVA composite membrane using the independent variable variation of GO 2.5-10% w/w. The results showed that water uptake in the range of 20-33%, swelling degree in the range of 10-17.5%, the ion exchange capacity was 0.59-0.75 meq/g, and the methanol permeability was 2.82-4.2 x10-6 cm2 /s. The characters shown are comparable with Nafion's characters and have the potential to be developed because they are superior in terms of raw material prices

Abstract

Daerah Istimewa Yogyakarta merupakan salah satu daerah yang memiliki potensi bencana alam yang cukup tinggi. Makanan adalah bahan habis pakai yang paling dibutuhkan saat bencana alam terjadi. Untuk menjaga makanan bergizi yang akan didistribusikan ke korban bencana alam tetap layak untuk dimakan, diperlukan suatu adanya alternatif berupa pengawet alami makanan. Dalam penelitian ini, dipilih kulit semangka sebagai bahan untuk membuat pengawet alami karena mengandung flavonoid dan antosianin. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui banyaknya kandungan total antosianin, flavonoid dan fenolik pada kulit semangka merah serta mengetahui pengaruh komposisi kitosan terhadap kemampuan pelepasan antosianin, flavonoid dan fenolik pada makanan. Penelitian ini dilakukan dengan metode ekstraksi dan enkapsulasi. Pada proses enkapsulasi digunakan teknik spray drying. Analisa yang dilakukan antara lain pengujian analisis kandungan Total Antosianin (TA), Total Flavonoid (TF) dan Total Fenolik (TPC) di dalam supernatant, serta analisa uji in vitro (uji kemampuan pelepasan flavonoid dan fenolik) pada makanan. Kandungan total antosianin pada kulit semangka merah sebesar 0,1113 mg/L. Kandungan total flavonoid pada kulit semangka merah sebesar 0,6159 g/mL. Kandungan total fenolik kulit semangka merah sebesar 0,3410 g/mL. Pada uji in vitro untuk senyawa flavonoid maupun fenolik, terjadi ketidakstabilan pelepasan kadar flavonoid dan fenolik terhadap waktu pada variasi kitosan 0,4 gram, 0,5 gram, dan 0,6 gram. Namun dari hasil rata-rata pelepasan kadar flavonoid dan fenolik, yang paling tinggi terjadi pada variasi kitosan 0,6 gram, dengan masing-masing nilai yaitu untuk flavonoid 0,1172 gram/mL dan untuk fenolik 0,0867 gram/mL. Hal ini menunjukkan bahwa semakin tinggi kadar kitosan, maka pelepasan kadar flavonoid dan fenolik juga meningkat.

Abstract

Markets and supermarkets are one of the pillars of the country's economy, besides that, they are also the biggest contributors to vegetable and fruit waste which can cause various environmental problems. Therefore, the abundance of vegetable and fruit waste produced by markets and supermarkets can be utilized as environmentally friendly alternative energy, namely biogas. This study aimed to determine the effect of organic loading rate (OLR) on biogas production and gas composition in a continuous anaerobic floating bioreactor using mixed vegetable and fruit waste. A 40-l anaerobic floating bioreactor was utilized and the hydraulic retention time was 10 days; one kg of vegetable and fruit wastes at a 1:1 mass ratio was added with water to 4 l and introduced during 25 days; the daily biogas production was collected in a floating drum and measured as volume. The maximum biogas yield was 0.0452 m3/kg, achieved using the OLR of 0.0125 kg/l.day.  The use of OLR of 0.0250, 0.0375 and 0.0500 kg/l.d reached biogas yields of 0.0435, 0.0282, and 0.0163 m3/kg, respectively. The composition of the maximum biogas yield was 68.17% CH4, 19.34% CO2, 1.85% H2S, and 0.64% NH3.

Abstract

Nitrogen, Phosphate, and Potassium are important nutritional elements contained in the fertilizers for plants but their presence in the soil could be easily wash out by rain water. Biochar, originated from rice husks with a high absorbance ability, might be able to be used to inhibit the release of those nutrients. This research aims to investigate the influence of biochar size and the HCl chemical activation. Biochar, which has been pyrolyzed, was ground and sieved to obtain powder with the size average equivalent to 0.2735 mm; 0.4485 mm; 0.725mm; and 0.925 mm. The optimized biochar size were opted for later being activated using HCl with a concentration of 3%; 9%; and 15%. The leaching process of fertilizer, aiming to imitate the rain water washing, was performed by pouring water on a daily basis on a sand column with the presence of biochar saturated with colorized fertilizer. The obtained solution were then characterized using Spectrophotometer. The results show that the estimated release time for the case with the absence of biochar is 36 days, in contrast to 55 days for the case with the presence of biochar.

Abstract

Aromatic compounds in industrial wastewater such as phenols can contribute as pollutants which are highly toxic and carcinogenic. Phenol degradation can be carried out by a photocatalytic process which can convert phenol into non-toxic and enviromentally friendly compounds. The performance of titania (TiO2) photocatalyst was enhanced by using carbon nanotube as a doping agent for titania. To reduce carbon nanotube agglomeration, the surface of carbon nanotube was modified with cocoPAS surfactant. The purpose of this study was to synthesize titania-carbon nanotube-cocoPAS composite and evaluated the effect of initial phenol concentration (10, 20, 30 ppm) on the phenol photodegradation effectivity using titania-carbon nanotube-cocoPAS composite. Titania-carbon nanotube-cocoPAS composite synthesis was carried out by forming a composite between TiO2 and carbon nanotube that had been modified by surfactant. Composite were characterized by SEM, FTIR, and XRD. Phenol photodegradation was carried out at a degradation temperature of 50ºC for 4 hours under UV light. Samples were drawn at regular intervals and residual concentration of phenol in each sample was analysed using UV-Visible spechtrophotometer. The highest degradation effectivity in 4 hours was 81% at initial phenol concentration of 10 ppm.

Abstract

The sulfur content in coal ranges from 0.5 to 5%, and it is an impurity that must be removed before burning coal, due to the toxic effects and acid rain caused by SO2 gas generated from sulfur oxidation. Sulfur cleaning technology can be carried out on coal before combustion (pre-combustion), and can reduce the inorganic sulfur content by up to 50%; however, it cannot reduce the organic sulfur content. Therefore, the industry relies on post-combustion desulfurization to remove SO2 from the gas from coal combustion. The aim of the coal desulfurization review is to direct desulfurization research to be efficient and effective, as well as to be environmentally friendly. Sulfur in coal consists of organic sulfur and inorganic sulfur. Coal inorganic sulfur consists of pyrite (FeS2), sulfate, and sulfide. The largest composition is pyrite. Organic sulfur consists of hetero-atomic and heterocyclic (thiophenic) macromolecules that bind N and O atoms, aromatic sulfides, and aromatic disulfides (small amounts). Inorganic sulfur can easily be separated from coal by means of flotation, microwave energy, magnetic forces, ultrasonic energy, and as well as microorganisms. Meanwhile, organic sulfur cannot be separated from coal by using the methods used in the inorganic sulfur separation process. Organic sulfur can be removed by chemical and biodesulfurization, however, this process is inefficient for industrial scale. The most recommended method is the absorption of SO2 gas in the gas from coal combustion, or post-combustion desulfurization. Various methods have also been investigated to separate SO2 gas, and more details will be described in this paper.
