Abstract

The formation of ZnO/Ag morphology in the form of ganglia structures that are overgrown with grains in previous studies has been shown to degrade the presence of E. coli bacteria. In this research, the variations of annealing temperature were studied, namely 250 ℃, 300 ℃, 350 ℃, and 400 ep when the 4% ZnO/Ag deposition had an effect on crystallinity and morphology. The crystallinity of ZnO/Ag was obtained by using the X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) test and the surface morphology of the ZnO/Ag layer using the Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) test. The results of the research with the XRD test showed that the crystal structure of ZnO/Ag 4% was hexagonal wurtzite at annealing temperature of 250 ℃ and 300 ℃, while the amorphous structure was obtained in ZnO/Ag with annealing temperature of 350 ℃ and 400 ℃. The largest average crystallite size was owned by ZnO/Ag at annealing temperature of 300 ℃ which was 83.408 µm. The morphology obtained from a thin layer of ZnO/Ag 4% with annealing temperature of 250 ℃ and 300 ℃ is in the form of grains composed of ganglia structures. The ZnO/Ag layer with annealing temperature of 300 ℃ had the largest roughness level of 0.422 µm and the largest surface area of 197.233 µm. Meanwhile, the morphology of ZnO / Ag at annealing temperature of 350 ℃ and 400 ℃ did not form a ganglia structure so that the roughness level was low and the surface area was small. The larger the crystallite size, the higher the roughness level, and the larger the resulting surface area. ©2018 JNSMR UIN Walisongo. All rights reserved.

Abstract

Cd (II) and Zn (II) are examples of heavy metal contaminants in waters that cause serious problems because of their toxicity. Therefore, it is necessary to take effective way to remove heavy metal ions from waters. Adsorption method is widely used because it has several advantages, namely high efficiency, easy handling, reusable, inexpensive, and many choices of materials that are used as adsorbent. One effective adsorbent used is a zeolite because it has high selectivity. This study aims to determine the kinetic model suitable for the process of Cd2+ and Zn2+ metal ion adsorption using Zeolite 4A as an adsorbent. The study was conducted by varying the contact time (10, 15, 30, 45, 60, 90, 120 and 180 minutes). The results showed that the Cd2+ adsorption process followed the pseudo-second-order model with a value of k = 0.205 g mg-1 min-1, R2 = 0.998, while the Zn2+ adsorption process followed the pseudo-second-order model with a value of k = 0.087 g mg-1 min-1, R2 = 0.995.. ©2017 JNSMR UIN Walisongo.

Abstract

The 21st century development of plants in the agribusiness and agro-industry sectors, one form of agricultural agribusiness is mustard cultivation. However, in general, this cultivation still uses artificial chemical plants which have a negative impact if used continuously for plants, soil, and consumers. Seaweed besides being able to be consumed by the body, it can also be used as a liquid organic base. The content of seaweed in the form of calcium, manganese and potassium can actually increase plant growth. This study aims to determine the effect of liquid fertilizer applied by researchers on the growth of mustard plants. The method used is to make fertilizer made from seaweed and river moss. Giving liquid fertilizer to mustard plants with various percentages and measuring the height of mustard plants every 5 days for 25 days. The results showed that the application of organic fertilizer with seaweed as the base material could increase the growth of mustard plants. Seaweed-based fertilizers contain K2O which can stimulate growth hormone growth. This is evidenced by the difference in plants given liquid fertilizer made from seaweed and river moss.

Abstract

Practicum is one of the effective methods for students in learning Natural Sciences (IPA), especially Physics subjects. The purpose of the practicum is to make it easier for students to understand concepts and help explain physics concepts that cannot be observed directly by the eye. The 2013 curriculum demands physics learning to integrate various concepts, so that students have a thorough understanding of a phenomenon. This study aims to determine the effect of spring strain and tube length on the speed of propagation and wavelength. Ripple tank experiments that currently exist, only calculate variations in fluid height, gap size, vibrator frequency, and so on. The method used in this research is experimental, for the components used consist of a set of simple ripple tank tools and frequency sensors. The analytical technique used in this research is descriptive quantitative. The highest and lowest frequencies produced from the small tube were 20 Hz (l=70 cm; = 0.04 cm) and 1 Hz (l=5 cm; = 4.30 cm). The highest and lowest frequencies obtained from the large tube were 52 Hz (l=70 cm; = 0.05 cm) and 3 Hz (l=5 cm; = 4.95 cm). The highest and lowest wave propagation velocities produced by the small tube are 4.3 cm/s (l=5 cm) and 0.89 cm/s (l=70 cm). The highest and lowest wave propagation velocities produced by the large tube are 9.87 cm/s (l=5 cm) and 2.69 (l=70 cm). Based on the results of the study, it was shown that the greater the spring strain, the higher the frequency, the wavelength and the speed of wave propagation.©2019 JNSMR UIN Walisongo.

Abstract

Jepara is a carving city. The result of carving produces sawdust waste which is usually used to be sold and burned. In addition, durian fruit is available that has a distinctive taste and made an icon of one village in Jepara. The fruit is the belle of the whole community to be eaten by meat and made food. But the skin has the traits and characters that are difficult to decompose. Then the two wastes will be combined with tapioca flour into briquettes as an alternative fuel. This research take four stage: combustion, filtering, printing, and drying. Obtained two treatment, the first treatment is using ratio wood sawdust and durian rind; 50 gr: 50 gr; 25 gr: 50 gr; 50 gr: 25 gr. The results shown it does not ignite up and very hard. The second treatment is using same ratio but added 25 gram starch, the results shown it ignite. This is due to the starch content is used, it ignite the longest with a concentration ratio of 50 gr: 50 gr because its combination increases the calories value. In durian rind there are 3786 cal/g and teak wood consists mainly of cellulose (40-50%), hemicellulose (20-30%), lignin (20-30%), and the calories value of sawdust briquettes is 4714-5519 kcal/kg.©2019 JNSMR UIN Walisongo.
