Abstract

==========================================================Available online: 09 April 2018 This article has been retracted by Indonesian Journal of Science and Technology Editorial team, following clear correspondence and confirmation with authors. The paper is retracted from 30 May 2021.==========================================================Bamboo applications become popular recently by the community due to the rise of environmental awareness, including for post-disaster building. Two aspects of post-disaster buildings were considered: i.e. its performance and its recyclability. This research explore ability of bamboo as tensile structure, and also as knock-down structure. Bamboo radial compression (barcom) connection was explored by these aspects. Barcom joint is one of the solutions to be  effectively used for gaining the tensile strength of bamboo by converting tensile load parallel to fiber into radial compression perpendicular to fiber. Barcom joint was tested to acquire its load capacity and its future improvement. The load test showed that the barcom connection could reach up to 21.61 kN. To improve this capacity, either better wire or special washer design could be proposed. The adaption in previous built structure (i.e. Three Mountain Building in Serangan island, Bali and knock-down bamboo geodesic dome in Colombia) was used as a case-study. In the construction of Three Mountain Building, barcom joint was used to hang the bamboo rafters and acts as tension-like member. Meanwhile, the use of barcom joint in Colombia was intended to connect the bamboo with the steel bowl connector which could be dismantled and reused again many times.

Abstract

CuInSe2 (CISe) thin film was successfully fabricated from copper and indium salts with ethanolamine as precursors. All of these precursors were dissolved and formed complex compounds with ethanolamine simultaneously which deposited on soda lime glass by spin coating at 200 rpm, followed by heat treatment in the ambient atmosphere at 200oC for 120 minutes and finally selenization at 550oC using selenium pellets under Ar (95%) + H2 (5%) for 120 minutes to fabricate CISe thin film. Reaction mechanism, structure, morphology and chemical composition also reported in this work.

Abstract

Pinch analysis has been known as one of the tools for smart energy management. This technique has successfully been applied in more than three decades in various industries. Here, the purpose of this study was to describe how to use pinch analysis for improving heat exchanger network design of a revamped chemical plant. In a revamping project of a chemical plant, the pinch analysis is applied to find a better design. The analysis reveals that the revamped case can be further improved to achieve more energy saving. This is done by applying one of the golden rules in pinch analysis, which is not to transfer heat across the pinch. The proposed solution is rather simple and straightforward, leading to only few months of payback period and 165 k€ per annual saving.

Abstract

In forward osmosis (FO), a semi-permeable membrane separates a concentrated draw and a diluted feed solution. FO has emerges as a promising alternative for various applications. To support further development of FO process, a larger scale optimization is required to accurately envisage the most critical factors to be explored. In this study, we applied a mass-transfer model coupled with the mass conservation and area discretization to simulate the performance of plate-and-frame FO modules (10 sheets of 1x1m). Effects of numerous parameters were simulated: modes, flow orientations (co-, counter- and cross-currents), spacers and spacer properties, membrane parameters and operational parameters. Results show that counter-current flow orientation offers the highest flux with minimum spatial distribution. Module performance can be improved by developing FO membrane through reducing membrane structural (S) parameter and increasing water permeability (A): increasing A-value only significant at low S-value, and vice versa (i.e., for A-value of 1 LMH/atm, S-value must be below 50 µm). Furthermore, inclusion of spacer in the flow channel slightly increases the flux (merely up to 2%). Module performance can also be enhanced by increasing feed flow rate, lowering solute in the feed and increasing solute in the draw solution.

Abstract

Lignocellulosic biomass consists of cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin, which have the potential to produce the so-called green chemicals. Many processes are available at different scales (e.g. labs, pilots, demos, commercials), utilizing lignocellulosic biomass as the raw material. Due to its complicated chemical structures, lignocellulosic biomass must be pretreated before it can be processed further. Simultaneous separation of cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin from the biomass is an important step to maximize the full potential of the biomass. In this review, several well-known biomass pretreatment technologies are evaluated. These are low pH process (e.g. dilute acid, steam explosion, hot water liquid, and concentrated acid), high pH (e.g. NaOH, lime, NH3), organosolv, ozonolysis, CO2 explosion, and ionic liquids. The objective of this review is to understand how effective the pretreatment process for separating cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin. Based on this review, organosolv is the only pretreatment process that is capable of separating cellulose, C5 sugars (from hemicellulose), and lignin, simultaneously. This process is currently at pilot scales of 30 – 100 ton per day of biomass feedstock.

Abstract

Forward osmosis (FO) is an attractive technology that offers advantages especially for treatment of challenging feeds in comparison to other membrane technologies. Substantial developments of membrane material have been shown recently. To support further development of FO process, a larger scale study via membrane module development is required to accurately envisage the most critical factors to be exploited to realize the promises. In this study, we applied a mass-transfer model coupled with the mass conservation and area discretization to simulate the performance of modified spiral-wound (MSW) modules (10 sheets of 1x1m). The study focuses on the spatial flux profile in a full-scale module as function of operational mode: co- vs counter cross current and membrane orientations (active-layer facing feed (ALFS); solution and active layer facing draw solution, (ALDS)). Results show that all modes offer almost similar average flux of about 9-10 L/m2h, but the co-current flows have much higher flux ranges (≈43%). The latter is expected to worsen membrane fouling resistant due to mal distribution in hydraulic loading. An operation with counter current and ALFS and counter current flow is then recommended because it offer similar flux but lower spatial flux ranges (7%).

Abstract

According to the general theory of relativiy, a black hole is defined as a region of spacetime with super-strong gravitational effects and there is nothing can escape from it. So in the classical theory of relativity, it is safe to say that black hole is a "dead" thermodynamical object. However, by using quantum mechanics theory, Hawking has shown that a black hole may emit particles. In this paper, calculation of temperature of an elliptical black hole when emitting the Dirac particles was presented. By using the complexpath method, radiation can be described as emission process in the tunneling pictures. According to relationship between probability of outgoing particle with the spectrum of black body radiation for fermion particles, temperature of the elliptical black hole can be obtained and it depend on the azimuthal angle. This result also showed that condition on the surface of elliptical black hole is not in thermal equilibrium.

Abstract

Mango is one of the most favourite fruits in the world. Therefore, this type of fruit has been researched deeply to enrich the variety. Here, the purpose of this study was to find the easiest method to determine the type and the variety of mango. In short of the experimental method, we analyzed the leaf using an image processing method. To confirm our result, several analyses were also conducted: leaves process digital image acquisition, and preprocessing, as well as feature extraction and classification. The result showed that our image processing method was effective to detect the variation of up to 78%. We believe that further study using this method will be effective for other types of fruits.

Abstract

Corrosion predictions are essential for corrosion and material engineers. It is used to prepare pre-Front End Engineering Design (pre-FEED). FEED guides to select appropriate materials, planning test schedule, work over management, and estimate future repair for cost analyses. Corrosion predictions also calculate life of pipeline and equipment systems during operational stages. As oil and gas environments are corrosive for carbon steel, it is important to account the corrosion rate of carbon steels in those environmental conditions. There are many existing corrosion predictions software, which are available in oil and gas industries. However, corrosion predictions only can be used for particular ranges of environmental conditions because they use different input parameters. To select the most applicable of corrosion predictions software, engineers have to understand theoretical background and fundamental concept of the software. This paper reviews the applications of existing corrosion prediction software in calculating corrosion rate of carbon steel in oil and gas environmental systems. The concept philosophy of software is discussed. Parameters used and range of conditions are also studied. From the results of studies, there are limitations and beneficial impacts in using corrosion software. Engineers should understand the fundamental theories of the corrosion mechanism. Knowing limitations of the models, the appropriate model can be correctly selected and interpretation of corrosion rate will close to the real data conditions.
