Abstract

Biogas is an environmentally friendly renewable energy source. Biogas can be used using Palm Oil Mill Effluents (POME). However, the % yield of biogas productivity is still not optimum due to the low conversion. The biogas productivity can be optimized by adding methanogen bacteria which increase the methane production through the anaerobic fermentation process. This study aims to utilize cow manures as the source of methanogen bacteria in methane production from POME. Furthermore, this study specifically aims to obtain the optimum productivity condition of biogas production by the composition ratio of POME and cow manures to the amount of fermentation time at 35oC and 50oC for mesophilic and thermophilic bacteria, respectively. The ratio of POME and cow mature were A1 (100:0), A2 (80:20), A3 (70:30), A4 (60:40), and A5 (0:100). The highest yield of biogas production was A2 ratio using the thermophilic condition which showed 51.33% mol with the total solid decline of 73.43%, COD removal of 77.01%, and BOD removal of 70.02%.

Abstract

Spent bleaching earth (SBE) is a solid waste was generated from the CPO refining step into cooking oil. SBE that was discharged directly into the environment has the potential to pollute the environment, because in the SBE waste contained oil and acid residues, which are easily to be oxidized and flammable. Therefore, SBE must be processed first before being discharged into the environment. One way to manage SBE is by bioremediation. Bioremediation is a method on cleaning the environment from contaminants by using biological agents, such as bacteria, fungi etc. The bacterial isolates used in this study were Bacillus cereus. This study aims to obtain the best inoculum and to know the ability of Bacillus cereus bacteria in degrading the oil content in SBE waste. This study used Completely Randomized Design with the volume of Bacillus cereus bacteria inoculum as a treatment, consisting of 6 treatment levels of 0 mL kg-1, 25 mL kg-1, 50 mL kg-1, 75 mL kg-1, 100 mL kg-1, 125 mL kg-1. Each treatment level was repeated 3 times, so taht 18 experimental units were obtained. Observation was done once a week, in a month. Parameters observed were bacterial population, percentage of oil degradation, and oil content degradation. The best treatment result for the bacterial population was obtained at the treatment of 100 mL kg-1, at week 4 which was 7,4 x 108 cfu g-1, and for the oil degradation was obtained at 50 mL kg-1 on the treatment at week 4 as big as 90,43%.

Abstract

Custom design is a modeling technique that puts forward the custom formula on the pharmaceutical formula optimization. The components may be adjusted to the formula constraints. However, these designs sometimes do not accommodate all the components used. In addition, its effectiveness is not necessarily optimal when compared with standard designs such as simplex lattice design (SLD). This study used microcrystalline cellulose PH 101 (MCC PH 101), lactose and K30 kollidon which were computerized. Custom design and SLD compared with Design Expert software based on previous research data. Tablet hardness and tapping index were used as test parameters to assess design effectiveness. The optimal formula result obtained was MCC PH 101: lactose: kollidon K30 80% each: 10%: 10% for SLD. This value differs from custom designs that get results in the absence of lactose proportions. Custom design prediction results actually get better value than SLD for tablet hardness and tapping index.
