Abstract

Increasing population growth can lead to the availability of agricultural land becomes smaller, it causes an imbalance of farmers population in a region with an area of agricultural land there, so the population pressure on agricultural land will be greater so that the region no longer can meet the needs of food population. If this happends continue then it is not impossible that the production has not proportional to the needs of existing population, and resulted in the carrying capacity of agricultural land will be smaller. So the analysis of the carrying capacity of agricultural land needs to be done to determine the ability of the land to provide food for the population needs in a given area. Carrying capacity of agricultural land is a function of several spatial variables may give effect in spatial linkages. The model can explain the relationship between variables that have a spatial relationship is called spatial regression models. One of the effective spatial regression models to estimate the effects of data that has a spatial dependency in the response variable is Spatial Autoregressive (SAR) model. Agricultural land supporting food is a phenomenon of spatial autocorrelation. Based on observations made at the carrying capacity of agricultural land for food in every village in Batu City, information obtained that there is significant effects of the percentage of farmers (X1), the land area for a decent life (X2), and the amount of food crops (X3) and the coefficient dependencies on lag (ρ) to the carrying capacity of farmland food (Y).

Abstract

Emulsion liquid membrane containing Di-(2ethylhexyl) phosphoric acid (D2EHPA) have been applied to remove nickel ion from wastewater of electroplating industry. Membrane was made from 0.1 mL of Span – 80; 0.6 mL of D2EHPA and 9.3 mL kerosene. Internal phase was made from 5 mL HCl 0,1 N, while the external phase that was nickel solution varied on concentration for 100-300 ppm. The separation process was done by stirring the solution in various rate of 100-250 rpm at 4 minutes. The last concentration of nickel was measured by using visible spectrophotometry at wavelength 470 nm by dimethylglyoxime method. From the experimental results, it has been established that increasing in stirring rate could increasing permeated nickel ion value. While increased on concentration of external phase also promoted permeated nickel ion value, with highest value 75%.

Abstract

Proximity and linkages between sites led to the emergence of the phenomenon of spatial linkages. Weighting matrix can be used to determine the proximity and linkages between spatial data or spatial relationships and can be used to calculate the coefficient of spatial dependencies. This study uses spatial panel data, namely the infant mortality rate (IMR) regional data taken from a unit area of development (SWP) Gerbangkertasusila and the Malang-Pasuruan SWP in the period 2005-2009. Those data use rook contiguity to make spatial weighting matrix. The aim of this study is to determine the model of what can be formed from the general spatial model (GSM) using panel data. Estimation of panel models with common effects approaches, fixed effects and random effects, will be followed by estimating the coefficient parameters of the general spatial model on panel data using maximum likelihood estimation method. From the prediction model by using software EViews7 note that all spatial panel data in this study followed the random effect model. To estimate the coefficient parameters of the general spatial model with Matlab-R2010 software is used to obtain a spatial lag / autoregressive models (SAR) of random effects and spatial error models (SEM) random effect. Model selection using the criteria as well as the largest R2 and corr2, and the smallest AIC values, the MSE values and the SC values. The best model for regional infant mortality data is the spatial error models (SEM) random effect.

Abstract

Pollution has been occured in our environment due to daily life waste, industrial and using of peptiside in agroindustrial farm. Over usuage and dose of peptiside could be harmfull to the farm environment especially for fish farm. Measurement of membrane potential of fish egg cells is a simple metode to investigate water polution level. Membrane potential of fish egg cells can be measured using microelectrode probe which is connected to an electrometer. The changing of membrane potential value indicate the level of water polution. Variation of peptiside concentrations cause the changing of potential membrane value. Increasing of peptiside concentration cause decreasing of potential membrane. Its may due to some blocking of channel and other protein by peptiside molecule so the permeability of membrane to ions is decrease. The results of our experiment show that the increasing of peptiside concentration cause decreasing of the membrane potential value. For peptiside concentration of  0.4% decrease potential membrane to -28 ± 5 mV. It means that the increasing peptiside concentration cause significanly decrease in potential membrane which may be used for prediction of water polution level.

Abstract

The author has conducted research about the effect of poly(trimethylene-sebacate) mass toward the rate of biodegradation using Mucor miehei in aerobic liquid media. Poly(trimethylene-sebacate) is a biodegradable linear aliphatic polyester, that can be degraded by Mucor miehei lipase. To determine the effect of poly(trimethylene-sebacate) mass in the biodegradation, the mass of poly(trimethylene-sebacate) were varied 0.06 g, 0.08 g, 0.1 g, 0.12 g and 0.14 g. Biodegradation process carried out for 12 hours, using liquid of Complex media, which was nutrient rich for Mucor miehei growth, and solution at pH 5. The resulting CO2 gas was flowed into the 50 mL reservoir of 0.1 M NaOH, followed by titration using 0.05 M HCl and MO (methyl orange) and PP (phenolptalein) indicator. The rate of CO2 gas were 0.287 x 10-3 M/h; 0.102 x 10-3 M/h; 0.137 x 10-3 M/h; 0.016 x 10-3 M/h; and 0.039 x 10-3 M/h respectively. The greater rate of CO2 produced the lower mass of poly(trimethylene-sebacate).
