Abstract

Oil palm plantations in Indonesia demand efficient weed control methods, particularly for large-scale operations in remote areas. Manual pesticide sprayers are still commonly used, but they require high labor, long operating time, and are not energy-efficient. This study presents the design and development of a solar-powered pesticide sprayer using the ADDIE method—Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation. The prototype consists of a 50 Wp monocrystalline solar panel, two 12V 24Ah VRLA batteries, a DC pump with variable pressure levels, and an Automatic Transfer Switch (ATS) for alternating battery use. The system is mounted on a frame suitable for motorcycle transport to improve field mobility and adaptability in plantation environments. Development followed all ADDIE phases and was validated through real-world field testing. Results showed a 75% reduction in spraying time—from 8 hours (manual) to 2 hours—with a maximum pressure of 70 PSI and a spray reach of 3.5 meters. The ATS allowed uninterrupted operation under varying sunlight conditions. This design offers greater energy efficiency, continuous usability, and flexible deployment compared to similar systems. The findings demonstrate the feasibility of applying solar energy to support sustainable weed management in off-grid agricultural settings, highlighting its potential for broader agricultural mechanization.

Abstract

In some areas in Indonesia, more traditional cocoa farmers have yet to carry out special monitoring of O2 and CO2 levels during fermentation because the practices and technologies used by cocoa farmers can vary significantly in different regions and levels of development. The right amount and level of O2 and CO2  can regulate the activity of microorganisms and affect the overall fermentation process. The fermentation box is made using a wooden board measuring 50x50 cm and is equipped with a stirring blade inside. The sensors used are the Gravity O2 I2C Sensor and the CO2 Sensor MG-118, with a high torque D.C. motor as the stirring blade drive. The results of monitoring and controlling the stirrer are carried out using the Blynk IoT platform or directly on the fermentation box. The tests carried out include testing on an empty fermentation box and testing on the fermentation process of 1kg and 6kg cocoa. After carrying out the testing process, the sensors and IoT systems created can work optimally. The sensor test results in the cocoa fermentation process show a change in CO2 concentration, initially 400 ppm, increasing to a maximum of 1600 ppm. Meanwhile, the O2 concentration remains stable at 20-21% vol, and the stirrer can work optimally. The D.C. motor-driven stirrer can operate effectively with a stirrer response time of 2 seconds and a stirring efficiency of 95% at both fermentation loads (1kg and 6kg). The monitoring system integrated with the Blynk IoT platform shows a gas measurement accuracy rate of 98%, making it easier for cocoa farmers to monitor and control the fermentation process more accurately. The effectiveness of this system can improve the quality of cocoa fermentation results by optimizing fermentation conditions through the right O2 and CO2 levels.

Abstract

A substation is one of the essential aspects of an electrically interconnected system, especially in a grid utility. Power generation, transmission, and distribution systems always need a continuous power supply to the customer. In high voltage and extra high voltage substation, operation schemes during abnormal and normal conditions may cause transient overvoltage in the system, one of which is temporary overvoltage. Temporary overvoltage analysis is needed to validate the rated system voltage within the limit of the substation equipment’s insulation level, including the rating of the lightning arrester. This research will select a lightning arrester with the standard approach IEC 60099-5 and software simulation on a computer. Conducted temporary overvoltage analysis using software simulation, which resulted in a value of 2.02 pu higher than the operating voltage. This slightly differs from the IEC 60099-5 standard, which recommends a value of 1.6 pu of operating voltage. Software simulation is beneficial as it models the system according to specific network parameters, leading to an optimal selection when compared to standards with different approaches to results based on varying network parameters. Temporary overvoltage analysis could help determine the correct rating of the lightning arrester and further mitigation, such as line compensation, switching technique, and load management, ultimately leading to reliability in substation equipment and interconnection system networks.

Abstract

The growing demand for electricity and the environmental impact of fossil fuels have driven the need for alternative, sustainable energy solutions. Hydropower, particularly in irrigation channels, offers a promising option for generating renewable energy. This study focused on developing a small-scale pico-hydro system to generate electricity from water flow in irrigation channels, designed for applications such as street lighting. The research contributes to advancing micro-hydropower technology by integrating an Internet of Things(IoT)-based monitoring system to optimize energy production and simplify performance tracking. The monitoring system enabled real-time tracking of generator output, battery voltage, and load current using a smartphone interface connected via the internet. The study involved laboratory and field testing in some irrigation canals in Yogyakarta, Indonesia. A water wheel turbine from galvanized plates and plastic converts water flow into electrical energy. Field tests confirmed the system’s ability to produce stable power. The system reached an overall efficiency of 11.38%. The data transmission delay through Blynk averaged 5.64 seconds, while total power consumption was 2,231 watts. Sensor measurements showed high accuracy, with generator voltage accuracy at 99.33% and load current accuracy at 99.26%. In conclusion, the pico-hydro system can effectively harness irrigation water for small-scale power generation, offering a viable, renewable energy source with efficient remote monitoring capabilities

Abstract

This paper presents a novel Modified Multilevel Inverter (MMLI) topology to reduce Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) in photovoltaic (PV) systems. Unlike conventional Cascaded H-Bridge Inverters, the proposed MMLI achieves higher output voltage levels using fewer switching components by optimizing the arrangement of voltage sources and switches. A Boost converter integrated with Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) further enhances power conversion efficiency and system stability. This specific configuration has not been previously explored, offering a more effective solution for THD mitigation. Simulations conducted in MATLAB/Simulink demonstrate the inverter’s performance, with the 5-level MMLI achieving a THD of 28.99% and the 9-level configuration reducing it to 18.15%. These results confirm the superiority of the proposed topology in improving power quality and reducing system complexity. Moreover, the design eliminates the need for external filters, making it a cost-effective and practical option for grid-connected PV applications.

Abstract

The increasing incidence of minors accessing hazardous indoor areas—such as staircases, balconies, and rooms with sharp objects—raises serious safety concerns, often due to insufficient parental supervision. This study proposes an Internet of Things (IoT)-based automatic door lock system to enhance child safety in home environments. The system integrates dual ultrasonic sensors for distance and height detection, a KY-037 sound sensor, and an ESP32-CAM for real-time video monitoring, all accessible via a web interface. A key novelty lies in the integration of multi-sensor spatial awareness with live surveillance, enabling automated control and proactive safety features. Tested on ten children aged 4 to 6 years, the system achieved a 90% success rate in locking the door when a child under 120 cm approached within 1 meter, with an average response time of approximately 2 seconds. A sound-based alarm is also triggered when noise levels exceed 120 decibels, serving as an emergency alert. However, a 10% false negative rate was observed when children were detected at distances of 1.3 to 1.5 meters, suggesting the need for further sensor calibration. Overall, the system demonstrates strong potential as a scalable and cost-effective smart home safety solution, combining automation, real-time monitoring, and child-specific access control. Future work should focus on improving detection accuracy and extending functionality for multi-object scenarios.
