Abstract

Preah Vihear is one of the temples located in Cambodia. That place is known as a Hindu religious site that is very important for worship activity. As important as this site is, Cambodia and Thailand have conflicted not only once but twice regarding ownership of the Preah Vihear complex. A row over territory around Preah Vihear's 11th Century temple continues to strain relations between Thailand and Cambodia. The first conflict happened in the 1950s, while the second one started in 2008. Focusing on the second conflict, this paper studies about reasons for the re-emerge of the conflict after decades, the use of military forces in resolving this conflict, the factors that might encourage the use of military force, and the role of ASEAN in attempt to solve the problem as a regional organization that has both Cambodia and Thailand as the members using realism theories. Keywords: Preah Vihear conflict, Thailand, Cambodia, Military force, Realism

Abstract

This paper examines affiliation with the Black Lives Matter (BLM) movement using the constructivism theory. The main finding presented in the paper is that the discrimination experienced by African Americans in the United States in the past two decades. The BLM movement's history was a response to the death of two black teenagers, Trayvon Martin and Michael Brown, who were both unarmed and shot and killed. The most famous one happened this year, the death of George Floyd for the brutal police action by pressing the victim's neck with his leg until Floyd died. The second key finding is that BLM organizations generated more to frame the movement as a struggle for individual rights. Still, many youths assume that this movement is just a trend on social media. Finally, social media's influence where the spread of news, content, videos is the important point of the black lives matter movement in the US.

Abstract

Biohydrogen is one of the most desired clean source energy due to the multi-purpose function and its production can be achieved via dark and photofermentation. However, the challenge comes from the expense of utilized fermentation substrate. Hence, utilizing low-cost and abundance material is needed. Dairy wastewater is considered to be a desirable alternative substrate due to high organic content. Co-culture fermentation of Clostridium butyricum and Rhodopseudomonas palustris with sucrose-containing substrate increased hydrogen production yield better than using separated batches of both cultures. Volatile fatty acids (VFA) as the end-product of dark fermentation by Clostridium butyricum could be utilized by R. palustris. This literature research is addressing the potential of dairy wastewater as a co-culture fermentation substrate to increase biohydrogen yield in low-cost. The research method is a literature review using secondary data carried out by identifying, assessing, and interpreting findings on relevant research topics. The result of this research is dairy wastewater used as a co-culture fermentation substrate can enhance biohydrogen production by promoting growth rate of both bacteria and by increasing the production of VFA. The theoretical yield of biohydrogen produced from co-culture fermentation of dairy wastewater is 8,44 gram higher than the theoretical yield of biohydrogen produced from singular fermentation of non-wastewater substrate. Keywords: biohydrogen, co-culture fermentation, dairy wastewater

Abstract

CO2 emissions from the use of fossil energy. However, the utilization of renewable energy sources has new challenges due to their intermittent nature and unequal distribution. Energy storage devices such as supercapacitors are needed to overcome these challenges. Therefore, it is very important to develop supercapacitor raw materials that are cheap, abundant, and environmentally friendly such as biomass waste. Coffee is a very promising commodity in Indonesia with total production reaching 742,000 tons per 2019. High coffee production implies the production of large-scale coffee husks which can be utilized to produce activated carbon. This paper aims to analyze the recent trends of characteristics of activated carbon from coffee husk as a material for the supercapacitor electrodes. Several types of activation agents are reviewed and compared. Scanning Electron Microscope technology and measurement with Brunauer-Emmett-Teller isotherm are used to identify the morphology and surface characteristics of activated carbon. Meanwhile, to analyze the chemical composition, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy are used. Cyclic voltammetry and charge/discharge galvanostatic chronopotentiometry measurements are performed to evaluate the capacitance of the supercapacitor electrode cells. The obtained specific capacitance values range from 106 to 138 F g-1 with each specific surface area at a certain activation temperature. This paper is concerned about the concrete optimization of coffee waste as one of the largest sources of biomass energy in Indonesia. Keywords: coffee husk, activated carbon, supercapacitor, characterization, capacitance

Abstract

The population in ASEAN is projected to increase to 722 million by 2030. This massive population increase had an impact not only on population quantity but also on the environment. This is reflected in the increasing number of pollution results such as waste products and carbon pollution. Waste to Energy Plants has been successful in converting waste to electrical energy by incineration, but there are still carbon emissions that has to be dealt with and on the other hand carbon pollution has been a major problem for ASEAN this past 10 years, with the data from Global Carbon Atlas showing 1671.7 MtCO2 are emitted from the combined 10 countries in 2019. The industry categories of petroleum refineries, chemicals and others are responsible for contributing the most greenhouse gases. Analysis from the International Energy Agency shows comparison between few of the most promising solutions for carbon emission, one of them being Carbon Capture Storage (CCS). This technology captures CO2 that has been emitted to the atmosphere. Indonesia, the biggest country in ASEAN is also the region’s most contributing country in terms of carbon emission where the CCS technology should be developed more. In this paper, the author uses a descriptive qualitative method and data reference from previous research. The results indicate that the usage of CCS is very effective to reduce the CO2 emissions emitted from Waste-to- Energy Plants with 95% accuracy. This, in effect, will ensure effective expert knowledge communication to the general public and foster social acceptance of this technology.

Abstract

The Indonesian government has initiated a big-push strategy to make crude palm oil (CPO) the main commodity for its biofuel mandates. However, this strategy has resulted in many environmental and political concerns. One case worth noting is the alleged rainforest burning in Papua by Korea-Indonesia conglomerate company named Korindo at the end of 2020. This case raised public concern over the environmental preserving effort at one of the most extensive natural rainforests globally, which is essential for Indonesia’s biodiversity and climate actions. Moreover, Korindo has also allegedly correlated to human rights abuses, mainly in the form of land-grabbing and the utilization of police force in the plantation area. Using state-business relations as its framework, this paper argues that even Korindo does not comply with sustainability measures, it can still sell its CPO to Indonesia’s biofuel market due to increasing demand from biofuel mandates.

Abstract

Indonesia has a coastline of 54,716 km whereas, the second-longest coastline in the world after Canada. However, coastal architectural planning is limited to high-traffic areas, such as recreation areas or harbors. Meanwhile, local coastal settlement areas developed without proper planning. It goes with the local people's lack of understanding for decent settlement also, the bad habits that have been carried out from generation to generation, like throwing garbage into the sea where contribute to the marine pollution index increment. Therefore, it is necessary to develop sustainable coastal settlement architectural planning. Therefore, we tried to make a floating house architectural plan for the coastal area with a prototype idea that applies the energy efficiency concept. Where combines a qualitative explorative approach to the coastal buildings concept and quantitative energy studies with computer simulations. Emphasized within this study is the utilization of marine waste also renewable energy technologies such as waves, solar heat, wind, and other natural resources applications in buildings. Whereas capable of contributing to reducing the marine pollution index and adequate to create energy sources independently. Which later on feasibly implemented as an architectural planning reference for coastal areas in the world.
