Abstract

Granulation is a process of monoparticle attachment with a particular mechanism to form a bigger and compact particle which is called granule. Granulation application has been used on many industries like pharmacy and agriculture industries. Research about granulation has been done continuously to get predictive models for various cases. The model which is only applicable to the specific material used in this research is expected to be useful to optimize the perfomances of the granulator in the industries. This research aims to develop the kinetics model of granule size distribution of cassava flour and its connection to granulation time by varying the mass of tapioca starch as the binder in rotary drum granulator. 2 grams of Cassava flour and tapioca starch were mixed in the rotary drum granulator and then water was sprayed during the granulation process. The duration of granulation were 5, 10, 15, 20, and 25 minutes. The variations of mass of the binder used in this research were 1, 1,5, and 2 gram. The granules were dried in the oven at 80°C until 30 minutes, and afterwards the granules were screened through various screen layers with different mesh size. The results of this research show that binder mass variations do not influence the layering rate of granule, and the increase of binder mass will decrease the birth rate.

Abstract

Separation and capture of carbon dioxide (CO2) has become a very hot topic of discussion recently. The increasing amount of carbon dioxide in the environment makes environmental pollution very significant. Membrane technology is one of the alternative carbon separation processes that are increasingly in demand, because membrane technology provides excellent advantages in terms of energy requirements used, capital investment invested, and ease of operating equipment compared to other processes. Many membrane constituent materials can be used to be the basic material for making membranes, including polymeric materials. This review discusses the various polymeric materials that can be used as basic materials for gas membranes in terms of plasticization, constituent components, flexibility, and mechanical strength. It also provides an understanding of alternatives to improve the properties of polymer-based membranes.

Abstract

The goal of this study was to investigate the effect of the concentration and the type of nitrogen sources in the cultivation medium on the production of biomass and biochemical content (carbohydrates, proteins, fats) in the Spirulina platensis biomass. Types of nitrogen sources included NaNO3 and urea, where the concentrations were varied from 0.5 to 3.5 g/L. The results showed that the use of urea tended to produce more S. platensis biomass than the use of NaNO3. The best concentrations that produced the highest biomass were NaNO3 2.5 g/L (biomass 0.6745 g/L) and urea 0.5 g/L (biomass 0.7158 g/L). The use of urea also tended to produce a higher specific growth rate and a shorter doubling time than the use of NaNO3. The high concentration of nitrogen sources caused the pH of the medium to increase more rapidly due to the accumulation of ammonium in the medium. Using NaNO3 can produce biomass with a higher protein content (28.34-36.98%) than using urea (25.86-33.52%).

Abstract

Since corrosion causes considerable losses in many fields, including the economy, environment, society, industry, security, and safety, it is a major concern for the industrial and academic sectors. Damage control of materials based on organic compounds is currently a field of great interest. Because it is non-toxic, affordable, and effective in a variety of corrosive situations, pyrimidine has potential as a corrosion inhibitor. It takes a lot of time and resources to carry out experimental investigations in the exploration of potential corrosion inhibitor candidates. In this study, we evaluate the gradient boosting regressor (GBR), support vector regression (SVR), and k-nearest neighbor (KNN) algorithms as predictive models for corrosion inhibition efficiency using a machine learning (ML) approach based on the quantitative structure-property relationship model (QSPR). Based on the metric coefficient of determination (R2) and root mean square error (RMSE), we found that the GBR model had the best predictive performance compared to the SVR and KNN models as well as models from the literature for pyrimidine compound datasets. Overall, our study offers a new perspective on the ability of ML models to predict corrosion inhibition of iron surfaces

Abstract

Sugarcane leaves are one of the agro-industrial wastes derived from sugarcane plants. In this research, sugarcane leaves are used as raw material for pyrolysis which produces three main products: liquid, solid, and gas. The focus of this research is to identify the effect of temperature on pyrolysis, identify mass changes, identify decomposition, and identify the chemical composition of bio-oil. The pyrolysis was carried out using a Circulating Fluidized Bed (CFBr) reactor with pyrolysis temperature variations from 440oC to 520oC. Analysis of pyrolysis characteristics of sugarcane leaves are used thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), DTA, and GC-MS analysis. The results showed that the operating temperature had a significant effect on the pyrolysis process. The highest bio-oil found at 480oC, namely 34.33%. TGA results show that the decomposition process of sugarcane leaves is divided into 3 stages: 1) dehydration of water content occurs at <200oC, 2) active pyrolysis occurs from 200oC to 380oC, and 3) passive pyrolysis occurs at temperature from 380oC to 500oC. DTA results show that the thermal changes are affected by the pyrolysis heating rate. The highest bio-oil compounds are β-D-Glucopyranose 1,6-anhydro, acetic acid, and 2-Propanone 1-hydroxy-. This research proves that temperature has an important role in the pyrolysis process.

Abstract

The use of nanomaterial as a finishing agent in the textile industry continues to be developed. Nanoparticle zinc oxide (ZnONP) has anti-UV properties so that it can be used to protect the color of the fabric from fading. Constraints of using nanomaterial as a functionalization agent on fabric are the process of application and also its poor adhesion. This research aims to optimize ZnONP coating on cotton-indigo fabric so that ZnONP can be maximized adsorbed with good durability. Optimization is carried out by the Response Surface Methodology (RSM) method, with the independent variables are: ZnoNP Dispersion volume, the number of coating, and the method of coating (with and without sonication assisted). The response variable is the adsorbed ZnONP in fabric sample after the washing process. The number of coating and sonication-assisted coating gives significant results in increasing the number of adsorbed ZnONP.

Abstract

One of the efforts to minimize the impact of detergent waste pollution is by adsorption using coffee dregs and coconut dregs adsorbents. The purpose of this study was to determine the optimum mass of coffee grounds and coconut pulp as adsorbents, to compare the effectiveness of their absorption in decreasing levels of Linear Alkyl Benzene Sulfonate, and to study their adsorption isotherm models. This research was conducted in batches with variations in the mass of each adsorbent, namely 1 gram, 2 grams, 3 grams, 4 grams and 5 grams. This research was conducted in batches with variations in the mass of each adsorbent, namely 1 gram, 2 grams, 3 grams, 4 grams and 5 grams. The detergent waste samples were contacted with the adsorbent for 30 minutes and then the absorption capacity was tested using the Methylene Blue test method. The results showed that the optimum absorption of LAS content from coffee grounds and coconut pulp adsorbents occurred at a mass of 2 grams with the greatest increase in absorption efficiency index Coconut dregs adsorbent is more effective than coffee dregs because it can absorb up to 37%, while coffee dregs are only 10% with the same adsorbent mass of 5 grams. The adsorption isotherm model of the 2 types of adsorbents refers to the Langmuir equilibrium with R2 values for coffee grounds 0.8651 and coconut pulp 0.9868.

Abstract

Cement is proven increasing the strength of soft clays. Monmorillonite has a high shrinkage. Another hand, Kaolin has a small shrinkage. Waste material usage for stabilization agent was widely carried out this decade. BAFA (bottom ash fly ash) and POFA (palm oil fuel ash) are rich in Silica and Alumina, so they used to substitute of cement. The study examined the effect of Monmorillonite, Kaolin, BAFA and POFA on stabilization of clay with cement. Bentonite from 4% to 16% (is equated to BAFA and POFA, in ratio of 2:1) and Kaolin by 2.5%, used to reduce clay shrinkage, mixed with cement by 3% and 5%. Soil behavior will be reviewed from laboratory tests on curing-noncuring and soaked-unsoaked conditions. The results show changes in Atterberg Limits and Hydraulic Conductivity (permeability, k). Cement as well as BAFA and POFA reduce Plastic Limit greater than Liquid Limit. So, Plasticity Index decreased. It’s can be seen that cement and ash waste decreasing the permeability value. More Ash and less cement, make more impermeable soil. Addition of 3% and 5% cement increased the UCS values from 14.32 kPa to 81.20 kPa and 589.68 kPa and CBR value from 0.78% to 4.20% and 589.68 42.12% respectively
