Abstract

Abstract : Misuse of adding chemical drugs – BKO – into herbal medicines is often done by irresponsible people. The aim is to increase efficacy instantly, to attract consumer interest. BKO, which are often added to herbal medicine, are antalgin and dexamethasone. Antalgin content analysis was carried out quantitatively using the iodimetry titration method by conducting a preliminary test. The dexamethasone content analysis was carried out with qualitative and quantitative methods. The qualitative method was carried out using TLC. The quantitative method was carried out using the HPLC technique. The results obtained for the analysis of antalgin content of 10 samples were obtained two samples of herbal medicine containing antalgin, respectively 0,0749% and 0,1083%. Analysis of the dexamethasone content from 10 samples obtained 5 herbal samples containing dexamethasone respectively 0.0979%, 0.222%, 0.4521%, 0.5131% and 0.2809%. So based on these results, it is necessary to take action from the relevant institution regarding the discovery of the content of BKO in the herbal medicine on the market in Lombok.Abstrak : Penyalahgunaan penambahan bahan kimia obat (BKO) kedalam jamu sering sekali dilakukan oleh oknum yang tidak bertanggung jawab.

Abstract

Abstract : Oyster shell as one of the highest bio-waste in Alue Naga Aceh Besar District, Indonesia, was used as an adsorbent to remove a heavy metal Cr (VI) ion. The study was started by calcinating oyster shells at a high temperature of 800 ºC for 3 hours. The effect of various acid (H2SO4) and base (NaOH) activator was studied using characterization and adsorption experiments. The characterization obtained the sample activated by 10% NaOH (Na10-ACT) and 10% H2SO4 (H10-ACT) had the highest surface area which had 14.23 m2/g, 10.77 m2/g, respectively. Furthermore, the adsorption experiments confirmed the highest surface area by showing the highest Cr (IV) ion removal of 57.66%, 70.7%, respectively. The further investigation using X-ray fluorescence (XRF) determined that the Na10-ACT adsorbent has a better composition compared to the H10-ACT due to its high purities.Abstrak : Cangkang tiram sebagai salah satu bio-limbah padat di Desa Alue Naga Kabupaten Aceh Besar, digunakan sebagai adsorben untuk menghilangkan ion logam berat Cr (IV). Penelitian ini diawali dengan mengkalsinasi cangkang tiram pada temperatur tinggi 800ºC selama tiga jam. Pengaruh penambahan aktivator asam (H2SO4) dan basa (NaOH) juga dipelajari melalui karakterisasi dan pengujian adsorpsi. Hasil karakterisasi menunjukkan sampel yang diaktivasi dengan 10% NaOH (Na10-ACT) dan 10% H2SO4 (H10-ACT) memiliki luas permukaan tertinggi yaitu 14,23 m2/g, 10,77 m2/g, masing-masing. Lebih lanjut, pengujian adsorpsi juga mendukung luas permukaan yang tinggi dengan menghilangkan ion Cr (IV) sebesar 57,66%, 70,7%, masing-masing. Investigasi melalui analisa XRF menyimpulkan bahwa Na10-ACT memiliki komposisi yang lebih baik dibanding H10-ACT karena memiliki kemurnian yang tinggi.

Abstract

Abstract : Dependence on the use of fossil fuels in Indonesia is still quite high, especially crude oil; if no new energy reserves found, it will disrupt long-term energy availability. Biofuel is a renewable energy source derived from biomass, such as the type of microalgae spirulina platensis (SP). Solid residues from SP extraction still contained high levels of protein and carbohydrates. This solid residue can be processed by pyrolysis to produce bio-oil, water phase, charcoal, and gas. Bio-oil and gas products can use as fuel, charcoal can use for pharmaceutical needs, and the water phase as a chemical can use in food and health. The pyrolysis process carried out in a fixed-bed reactor with temperature ranging from 300-600°C. Heating was carried out by electricity through a nickel wire wrapped outside the reactor. Pyrolysis product in the form of gas condensed in the condenser, the condensate formed measured by weight. Char weight measured after the pyrolysis process completed. At the same time, non-condensable gas calculated by gravity from the initial weight difference of SPR minus liquid weight (bio-oil and water phase) and char. SPR samples were analyzed proximate and ultimate, while bio-oil products examined by the GC-MS method. The experimental results showed that the optimum pyrolysis temperature at 500ºC produced by 18.45% of bio-oil, 20% of the water phase, 32.02 of charcoal, and 29.54% of gas by weight. GC-MS results from bio-oil consisted of ketones, aliphatics, nitrogen, alcohol, acids, while PAHs, phenols, and aromatics not found.Abstrak : Ketergantungan penggunaan bahan bakar fosil di Indonesia masih cukup tinggi terutama minyak mentah, jika tidak ditemukan cadangan energi baru maka akan mengganggu ketersediaan energi jangka panjang. Biofuel adalah salah satu sumber energi terbarukan yang berasal dari biomassa seperti jenis mikroalga spirulina platensis (SP). Residu padat dari ekstraksi SP masih mengandung protein dan karbohidrat yang cukup tinggi. Residu padat ini dapat diproses dengan pirolisis untuk menghasilkan bio-minyak, fase air, arang, dan gas. Produk bio-minyak dan gas dapat digunakan untuk bahan bakar, arang dapat digunakan untuk kebutuhan farmasi, dan fase air sebagai bahan kimia dapat digunakan di bidang makanan dan kesehatan. Proses pirolisis dilakukan dalam reaktor fixed-bed dengan suhu 300-600°C. Pemanasan dilakukan dengan listrik melalui kawat nikel yang dibungkus di luar reaktor. Produk pirolisis berupa gas dikondensasi dalam kondensor, kondensat yang terbentuk diukur beratnya. Berat char diukur setelah proses pirolisis selesai, sementara gas yang tidak dapat dikondensasi dihitung beratnya dari perbedaan bobot awal SPR dikurangi bobot cair (bio-oil dan fase air) dan char. Sampel SPR dianalisis proksimat dan ultimat, sedangkan produk bio-minyak dianalisis dengan metode GC-MS. Hasil percobaan menunjukkan bahwa suhu optimum pirolisis adalah 500ºC yang menghasilkan bio-oil, water phase, arang, dan gas berturut-turut adalah 18,45; 20;  32,02 dan 29,54 % berat. Hasil GC-MS dari bio-oil terdiri dari keton, alifatik, nitrogen, alkohol dan asam, sedangkan PAH, fenol dan tidak ditemukan.

Abstract

Abstract : Google Apps is a service provided by Google that allows users to use Google products with their own domain names. Among the products offered by Google Apps are email (Gmail), Docs (Google Drive), and Classroom services. In addition, Google Apps also provides Application Programming Interface (API) services that can be used by developers to take advantage of various features provided by Google. Universitas Ubudiyah Indonesia (UUI) is one of the universities that use Google Apps service for managing student emails. At present, UUI student email management through Google Apps is still not integrated with academic information system data. As a result, UUI must allocate special resources for managing student emails manually. Based on these problems, this study proposes an integration system for UUI student email management using the Google Apps API. This system is designed using PHP programming. The Google Apps API authentication method uses OAuth 2.0. The results of this study indicate that student email management on Google Apps can be done through campus academic information systems. With this system, students can activate email independently without having to be registered manually to the Google Apps page by the campus email managers.Abstrak : Google Apps adalah sebuah layanan yang disediakan oleh Google yang memungkinkan pengguna dapat menggunakan produk google dengan nama domain sendiri. Di antaranya produk yang disediakan Google Apps yaitu layanan email (Gmail), dokumen (Google Drive), dan Classroom. Selain itu, Google Apps juga menyediakan layanan Application Programming Interface (API) yang dapat dimanfaatkan oleh pengembang untuk memanfaatkan berbagai layanan yang disediakan oleh Google. Universitas Ubudiyah Indonesia (UUI) merupakan salah satu universitas yang menggunakan layanan Google Apps untuk pengelolaan email mahasiswa. Saat ini pengelolaan email mahasiswa UUI melalui Google Apps masih belum terintegrasi dengan data sistem informasi akademik. Akibatnya UUI harus mengalokasikan sumber daya khusus untuk mengelola email mahasiswa secara manual. Berdasarkan permasalahan tersebut penelitian ini mengusulkan sistem integrasi pengelolaan email mahasiswa UUI menggunakan API Google Apps. Sistem ini dirancang menggunakan pemograman PHP. Metode autentikasi API Google Apps menggunakan OAuth 2.0. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan pengelolaan email mahasiswa pada Google Apps dapat dilakukan melalui sistem informasi akademik kampus. Dengan adanya sistem ini mahasiswa dapat melakukan aktivasi email secara mandiri tanpa harus didaftarkan secara manual ke halaman Google Apps oleh pengelola email kampus.

Abstract

Abstract : Islamic tradition and science have been going through a long history. The Islamic world centred in the Middle East was once a centre of knowledge that was marked by the birth of prominent Islamic scientists and the development of knowledge and technology. Islamic tradition and science are naturally integrated. For instance, it can be seen from the necessity of Earth science knowledge in Islamic ritual practising. However, the decline of Muslim civilization also had an impact on science, including in the field of geoscience. This paper seeks to explain the relationship between the Tafsir al-Qur’an and geoscience, among of them are about the creation of the earth, the structure of the earth, as well as tectonic and volcanism, wherein al-Qur’an they are delivered in many parts.Abstrak : Tradisi Islam dan sains mengalami sejarah yang panjang. Dunia Islam yang berpusat di Timur Tengah pernah menjadi pusat pengetahuan yang ditandai dengan lahirnya ilmuan Islam terkemuka dan pengembangan pengetahuan dan teknologi. Tradisi Islam dan sains terintegrasi secara alamiah termasuk integrasi antara ilmu kebumian dan peribadatan ummat Islam. Namun, kemunduran Islam juga berdampak pada kemunduran di bidang sains, termasuk pada bidang kebumian. Makalah ini berupaya memaparkan hubungan antara tafsir-tafsir Al-Quran dengan ilmu kebumian, diantaranya penciptaan bumi, struktur bumi, serta tetonika dan vulkanisme, dimana hal tersebut telah disebutkan di beberapa bagian di dalam Al-Quran.

Abstract

Abstract : Material characteristics analysis of Sarulla natural zeolite (SNZ) with base activation has been carried out. The base used was NaOH at various concentrations; 0.2 M, 0.5 M, and 2 M. Base activated catalysts were characterized by X-ray Fluorescence (XRF), X-ray diffractometer (XRD), Fourier-transform Infrared (FTIR) Spectroscopy, Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and gas adsorption analysis using BET method. The procedures applied have caused differences in adsorption and desorption rates as well as the crystallinity values of the catalytic materials. Moreover, the ratio of Si/Al contents has also changed at the lowest concentration. On the other hand, the crystallinity of catalysts has decreased at the highest concentration of base applied. The results are reinforced in FTIR characterization which shows the changes of silanol bonds to become silicate and aluminate. Furthermore, morphological analysis of the catalysts shows that homogenous surface was obtained at low concentration, while rough/lumpy surfaces was obtained at higher concentration.Abstrak : Analisis terhadap karakteristik material dari zeolit alam Sarulla (SNZ) dengan metode aktivasi basa telah dilakukan. Basa yang digunakan ialah NaOH dengan berbagai konsentrasi; 0,2 M; 0,5 M, dan 2 M. Katalis yang telah diaktivasi dengan basa kemudian dikarakterisasi dengan Analisis X-ray Fluorescence (XRF), X-ray diffractometer (XRD), Fourier-transform Infrared (FTIR) Spectroscopy, Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) dan Gas Adsorption menggunakan metode BET. Dari hasil penelitian, ditemukan perbedaan pada tingkat adsorpsi dan desorpsi, begitu juga dengan kristalinitas pada material katalis. Lebih jauh, rasio konten Si/Al juga berubah pada basa dengan konsentrasi terendah. Di sisi lain, tingkat kristalinitas dari katalis mengalami penurunan pada basa dengan konsentrasi tertinggi. Hasil ini diperkuat dengan data FTIR yang menunjukkan perubahan ikatan silanol menjadi silikat dan aluminat. Lebih jauh, analisis morfologi pada katalis menunjukkan bahwa permukaan yang homogen didapatkan dari penggunaan basa dengan konsentrasi rendah. Sebaliknya, basa dengan konsentrasi tinggi memberikan bentuk permukaan katalis yang tidak homogen serta kasar.
