Abstract

Peanut oil is a peanut product that is used for the food industry. The high content of fatty acids in the form of oleic acid causes peanut oil to break down easily, so it is necessary to add antioxidants to inhibit the oxidation process.The natural antioxidant used is turmeric. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of the addition of turmeric antioxidants on the peroxide rate of peanut oil. The research method for calculating the peroxide number uses iodometric titration. The results showed that the greater the concentration of turmeric simplicia added to peanut oil, the greater the antioxidant activity. The greatest antioxidant activity was obtained from the weight of simplicia 0.4 g with a long immersion period of 7 days, which resulted in a peanut oil peroxide value of 14.5 ml N / gr.

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

Waste production increases with the increase in population, urbanization rate and people's income. Garbage is a contributor to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions which can cause global warming. The Indonesian government is still committed to reducing greenhouse gas emissions and working to reduce / limit the increase in temperature below 1.50C. Karangasem Regency, is on the island of Bali, with a population in 2018 of 414,800 people. The population is spread across 8 sub-districts with the population growth rate in Karangasem averaging 0.88% per year. The distribution of the population will be directly proportional to the distribution of solid waste produced. It is important to do an inventory of GHG emissions to determine the amount of emissions in Karangasem Regency. The method for calculating municipal solid waste will be carried out using the First Order Decay method contained in the IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) Guidelines. From the calculation results, GHG emissions have been obtained in each sub-district in Karangasem Regency. Total GHG emissions in 2019 amounted to 11,764 tons CO2-e, with the highest GHG emission contributor, namely Karangasem District with 2,302 tons CO2-e and the lowest being Sidemen District with 894 tons CO2-e. With this research, it is hoped that stakeholders will be able to make efforts (mitigation) that can reduce these GHG emissions.

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.
