Abstract

Aquilaria Malaccensis Lam. is one of the most popular plants contains essential oil, both of them used by pharmaceutical and also cosmetic industry. The plants used in this study came from Jambi, Indonesia which is known, It’s one of the best quality agarwood in the world. This study aims to determine the best conditions for the yield so that it can be produced on an industrial scale. The study reviewed the effect of yield based on size of particles, ratio of solvent, and the operating time, maceration. The research was carried out in three steps. The first, raw material preparation, fermentation and maceration, and then evaporation. Preparation of raw materials is prepared in three variables, 2-5 cm, ±2cm, and size <40 mesh. Methanol is the solvent that will be used in multiple ratio of solvent to agarwood, its 1:7, 1:9, and 1:11(gr/ml). In addition, the maceration time was varied for each sample, 1 day, 2 days, and 3 days. Based on the research variables, obtained essential oil of agarwood dark brown in colour, with a special fragrance of agarwood. Based on the difference in particle size, it is known that size <40 mesh, yield is 3.16%, while for the larger size, 2-5 cm, the yield is 3.12%. In the variable ratio of the amount of solvent used, it is known that 1:9 (gr/ml) is the best point for yield. At maceration step known that 2-3 days, it doesn’t gives a significant change, 2.12 g for 3 days, and 1.92 g for 2 days.

Abstract

Peningkatan kapasitas produksi menjadi salah satu upaya Usaha Kecil dan Menengah untuk memuaskan konsumen dalam hal target produksi, efesiensi waktu, meningkatkan daya saing dan mempertahankan eksistensi perusahaan. UD. RANTI merupakan salah satu UKM yang memproduksi makanan ringan berbahan ubi kayu. Permasalahan yang dihadapi saat ini adalah sebagian proses produksi mulai input sampai dengan output tidak sesuai dengan spesifikasi yang dipersyaratkan Dinas Kesehatan, salah satunya proses penggilingan. Minimnya pengetahuan dalam merancang mesin peralatan produksi dan minimnya modal dalam pengadaan peralatan tersebut menambah bagian permasalahan dari mitra usaha ini. Melalui Program Kemitraan Masyarakat ini tim menawarkan solusi untuk merancang dan membuat mesin penggiling sebagai upaya pemecahan masalah tersebut. Tahapan pelaksanaan kegiatan yang direncanakan seperti: Analisis Situasi pada Unit Usaha, Merancang dan membuat mesin penggiling, Melakukan pelatihan pengoperasian dan maintenance mesin sekaligus penyerahan mesin kepada Unit Usaha, Evaluasi Program Kegiatan. Hasil yang didapat dari kegiatan ini berupa mesin penggiling bahan baku yang sesuai dengan persyaratkan Dinas Kesehatan dimana mesin/peralatan produksi harus menggunakan bahan stainless steel agar tidak terjadi cemaran logam pada bahan baku makanan. Dalam hal produktivitas, terjadi peningkatan dalam hal waktu produksi yang lebih singkat. Diharapkan dengan Program Kemitraan Masyarakat ini dapat meningkatkan produktivitas atau kapasitas produksi dari unit Usaha Kecil dan Menengah dalam hal ini UD. RANTI.

Abstract

West Sumatra has a high potential of coconut resources with most of it being processed for copra products. The pandemic situation in recent years has caused the price of copra products to fluctuate, so an alternative coconut processing is needed. Virgin Coconut Oil (VCO) is an alternative coconut product that can increase economic value of coconut and is needed as a supplement that can strengthen the body's immune system during the Covid-19 pandemic. One of the efforts to train the community to be able to process coconut into VCO is to conduct training activities that are directly located in the coconut farmer cluster, which is carried out in Sungai Sirah Village, South Coast District, West Sumatra. This community service activity aims to increase the competence of farmers in the village so that they can process the coconut produced into VCO, hence help their economy when the price of copra drops. The stages of the activity start from socialization, presentation on production process, and continued with demonstrating how to make VCO. Participants were divided into several small groups where they could immediately practice how to make this VCO with the correct fermentation steps. After the manufacturing process is well understood, the next step was training of how to do packaging and marketing. Farmers were trained on how to package products in order to get good quality product and then trained to sell VCO through online shop such as Facebook, Instagram, Tokopedia, etc. This activity helps add more insight in terms of processing and marketing, in which participants increase their knowledge and competence to form the basis for entrepreneurship of coconut processed products.

Abstract

The abundant benefits of essential oils have led to a significant increase in demand, prompting researchers to continuously explore this field to achieve optimal results. Various extraction methods can be employed to obtain essential oils. In this study, researchers used the maceration method with variations in several solvents as comparators. The resulting maceration filtrate was subsequently distilled to obtain pure essential oil, aiming to find an efficient process for essential oil production and identify the most suitable solvent for the production process. The solvents used were Methanol, Ethanol, n-Hexane, and Water. During the maceration method, a sample of 150 g lemongrass was prepared with a size of 1 cm and soaked in 1 L of solvent in a closed container for 24 hours. The filtrate was then distilled to obtain a pure product, which was further characterized using GC-MS. The research findings showed that essential oil was extracted most effectively by ethanol solvent, yielding 23.31 g, and the GC-MS analysis indicated that the lemongrass oil contained 25.75% Geraniol. It was concluded that Geraniol is more soluble in ethanol due to its closer polarity to the compounds within lemongrass oil, resulting in a higher yield compared to extractions using other solvents.
