Abstract

This research was conducted to determine the sound attenuation level of  composite. The composite used in this study iscompound Kalimantan sawdust and pineapple leaf fiber. The research objective was to determine the damping rate of composites (fine Kalimantan sawdust and compound of coarse Kalimantan sawdust with pineapple leaf fiber), so it can be used as an alternative sound absorbent material. The composite testing process uses a Sounds Level Meter by adjusting the frequency of the sound source. The space partition is a composite, measured the value of sound intensity at a certain distance, then given a partition, the sound intensity is again measured with the same distance. The results of the absorption coefficient of pineapple leaf fiber composite and red meranti wood sawdust can be used as an alternative sound absorbing material besides glass wool so that it can minimize side effects for public health. ©2018 JNSMR UIN Walisongo.

Abstract

Light or optical spectrum is a part of electromagnetic radiation and has several electromagnetic wave properties; one of them is undergoing diffraction. Diffraction or light bending occurred when a light went through a narrow gap. By utilizing that principle, it was proven that a piece of hair could be assumed as a single gap, so the thickness of a piece of hair could be determined, which lead to the explanation of the phenomenon of a piece of hair sliced seven times.  As a tool, the used sim cardholder is used to put hair using adhesive tape. Then the sim card is placed between the light source and the screen. The light source used is a red laser with a wavelength of 660 nm. Hair is placed in two positions: horizontally and vertically. Hair that is laid horizontally will create a vertical light-dark pattern, and hair that is placed vertically will form a horizontal light-dark pattern. The dark and light patterns on the screen are measured using a ruler according to the order of each pattern that is formed. The hair thickness measurement results using a red laser with a wavelength of 660 nm obtained hair thickness of d = (0.01146 ± 0.00019) cm for hair that is placed horizontally and d = (0.01151 ± 0.00011) cm for vertically placed hair. This data has more or less proven that there is potential to "split" the hair into sections, but it has not been proven that the hair can be split into seven parts, so there is still a chance to prove it.

Abstract

Heavy metal copper (Cu (II)), Chromium (Cr (IV) is a heavy metal that dominates textile industrial wastewater. Too large concentrations of Cu (II) in water can cause poisoning which has side effects of liver damage and gastrointentinal disorders. Cr metal in the body will cause interference with DNA synthesis and increase mutagen changes that can cause tumors. The use of fly ash as a Low Cost Adsorbent is an alternative.  The research method used is a physical activation process with carbonization at high temperatures (300˚C, 400˚C and 500˚C) in the furnace to be continued with chemical activation using concentrated acids (H2SO4 and CH3COOH) or base (KOH) in fly ash. Morphological analysis and the synthesized adsorbent function groups were performed using Scanning Electron Microscopes (SEM) and FTIR. Based on the adsorption capacity test, the ability of fly ash to adsorb Cu metal waste was 0.9962 mg/g and for Cr metal was 0.4760 mg/g. The temperature increase on the physical activation of fly ash (300 0C, 4000C, 5000C) causes an increase in the adsorption capacity of the synthesized fly ash. The best adsorbent for Cu metal is A5K with an adsorption capacity of 0.9994 mg/g under optimal conditions. The best adsorbent for Cr metal is A5S with an adsorption capacity of 0.9325 mg/g under optimal conditions. ©2018 JNSMR UIN Walisongo. All rights reserved.

Abstract

Rubber seeds (Hevea brasiliensis) are part of rubber plants that have not been utilized optimaly. The content contained in rubber seeds is sufficient, including fat content of 68.53 g/100 g, proteins 17.41 g/100 g, and carbohydratees 6.99 g/100 g. However, the obstacle faced is the presence of toxic compounds found in rubber seeds namely cyanide acid (HCN) which is very dangerous if it enters the body. The purpose of this study is to find out the right treatment to reduce the content of cyanide acid so that the rubber seeds can be utilized. The research method uses experimental comparative. The variation used in the reduction process is to soak the rubber seeds respectively for 12, 24, and 36 hours by replacing the immersion water once every 2 hours, then boil the rubber seeds into 2 liters of water for 2 hours by replacing the boiled water for 1 hour. The results showed that the greatest decrease in cyanide acid content occurred during soaking for 36 hours with boiling for 2 hours.©2019 JNSMR UIN Walisongo. All rights reserved.

Abstract

Coastal sand deposits containing iron particles (magnetic) can be regarded as iron sand and it generally has color from gray to shiny black yet while it is mixed with other minerals, the mineral will have a certain color combination. Coastal sand in the South of Manokwari Regency, West Papua especially in Wosi Beach, Arfai Beach, and Maruni Beach has a different color of the grain according to the source rocks and the sedimentation process. To characterize the magnetic properties of the three coastal sand deposits, several experimentations were done through measurements of the density, magnetic degree, magnetic susceptibility, and also SEM (Scanning Electron Microscopy) and EDS (Energy Dispersive X–Ray Spectroscopy) tests. The coastal sand deposition has a density ranging from 2.50–5.00 g cm-3 with the magnetic degree between 0.28–36.29 % and its magnetic susceptibility ranged 80.9×10-8 – 7447.7×10-8 m3 kg-1. The coastal sand from Arfai Beach has a magnetic susceptibility between the coastal sand from Wosi and Maruni Beach with the highest value reaching 5135.4 × 10-8 m3 kg-1. This is also supported by SEM and EDS data. The percentage of iron element mass (Fe) of the identified magnetic grain distribution in Wosi Beach sand is 6.71–33.90%, Arfai Beach sand is 11.35 – 38.45% and Maruni beach sand is 15.84–44.41%. ©2018 JNSMR UIN Walisongo.

Abstract

The use of chemical fertilizers that are not balanced with the provision of organic fertilizers can damage the soil. Chemical fertilizers can also damage the balance of nutrients in the soil and lower soil pH. Therefore, organic fertilizers are needed to help restore soil fertility and LRB as a medium for composting organic fertilizers. The biopore infiltration hole (LRB) is "activated" by providing organic waste. This waste will be used as a source of energy for soil organisms to carry out their activities through the decomposition process. This decomposed waste is known as compost. Compost is a term for man-made organic fertilizer made from the decomposition process of the remains of living things (plants or animals). The investigation of this study was to determine the quality of compost based on light intensity and acidity (pH) from the results of biopore infiltration holes (LRB) as well as good physical properties of compost. This type of research is an experimental research. Good quality compost has low resistance. The pH value of the compost in samples A,B,D,E is 6.5-7.5 so it is neutral, while the pH of the compost sample C is 8.5 is alkaline. The intensity of the light is high. The results of the lowest light intensity in the compost from this study were leaf compost + sawdust + EM4 of 990 lux, fermented in LRB for 2 weeks. Meanwhile, the highest light intensity value was found in the compost of raw material leaves which were fermented for 1 month at 1017 lux. So the greater the value of light intensity in the compost, the better quality it has, because it can improve soil fertility. ©2019 JNSMR UIN Walisongo. All rights reserved.

Abstract

Soap is an ingredient that comes from natural oils or fats reacting with caustic soda in the process known as lathering or saponification. Hand washing soap from fern (Pteridophyta) as the main ingredient is one of the antiseptic soaps that will be made, by comparing the drug Spirulina to determine the level of anti-bacteria produced. This study uses a hot process method with a soap heating time of about 20 minutes and a heating temperature of around 80°C. The results of testing the quality of hand washing soap as an antiseptic that meets the test standards are organoleptic test, acidity test (pH), foam resistance level test, and skin irritation test. So it's good to use as a hand sanitizer to get rid of bacteria and germs. ©2019 JNSMR UIN Walisongo. All rights reserved.
