Abstract

This study aims to determine the best adsorption capacity of methylene blue with variations in the mass of the adsorbent, contact time and determine the reaction kinetics and adsorption isotherms of activated carbon. The raw material for activated carbon is tamarind seeds. Tamarind seeds is started to neutral pH and dried in an oven at 130°C to a constant weight, then mashed using a blender and sifted using a 140 mesh sieve. adsorbent 140 mesh was added to 100 ml of methylene blue solution at a stirring speed 150 rpm for each variation of contact time 30 minutes, 60 minutes, 120 minutes and 180 minutes and mass of adsorbent 0,3 gs, 0,4 gs, 0,6 gs and 0,9 gs. The efficiency of the best description of methylene blue is 98,827% with 120 minutes and pH 6 at 0,9 gs of activated carbon. The maximum methylene orange adsorption capacity is 24,670 mg/g at 100 mg/L methylene blue concentration. The model suitable for this study is the second order kinetics and Freundlich adsorption isotherm. The results of the Fourier Transform Infra-Red (FTIR) spectrophotometer on the raw material of Tamarind seeds before activated were obtained by wave number which shows the presence of functional goups C-O, O-H, and C=O goups which form a special goup found on biosorbent, functional goups that appear after activation is a C=C goup which shows an increase in carbon and C-H goups (Alkenes). The results of the Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) characterization show that the surface morphology of the activated carbon from tamarind seeds has a surface that is open, coarse, and uniform porosity. The pores of biosorbent after activation in vacant soil without impurity.

Abstract

In general, dyes that are used in daily life using synthetic dyes. One material that can be used for natural pigment are from saga seeds (Adenanthera pavonina L). Saga (Adenanthera pavonina L) is a tree that has small red seeds which is one source of anthocyanin which can be used as natural dyes, antioxidants and anticarcinogens. In this research aims to find the type of solvent and the best extraction time used for the extraction of anthocyanin from saga seeds. Extraction of anthocyanin  from saga seeds used soxhletation method. The variables this research there are the type of solvent (5% citric acid 5% and citric acid 5% (w/v)) and the extraction time (30, 60, 120 minutes). The parameters used are qualitative and quantitative analysis (total yield, total anthocyanin concentration, antioxidant activity, intensity colour and lethal concentration of anthocyanin toxicity in extracts). The result observationaling show that the extraction from saga seeds that have best characteristics in aquadest-citric acid 5% solvent extract yield with extraction time 120 minutes 64.448% (w/w), total anthocyanin with extractions time 120 minutes 100.026 (mg/L), color intensity with extraction time 60 minutes 0.528, antioxidant activity (IC50) 11.622 ppm and toxicity activity with extraction time 60 minutes 63.326 ppm.

Abstract

Anthocyanin is a natural pigment that gives red colour on Nipah husk (Nypa fructican) extract. Extraction of anthocyanin compounds used the soxhletation method with independent variables were the type of solvent (aquadest and ethanol with citric acid 3% (w/v)) and extraction time (30, 45 and 60 minutes). This study aims to determine the best type of solvent and extraction time used for extraction of anthocyanin from Nipah husk. The parameters in this study include qualitative and quantitative analysis of anthocyanin (extract yield, total anthocyanin concentration, color intensity, antioxidant activity and analysis of toxicity) from Nipah husk extract. The results qualitatively and quantitatively indicate that Nipah husk extract had anthocyanin content with the highest extract yield was obtained using ethanol-citric acid 3% solvent at 60 minutes extraction time of 0.546 gram / gram. The highest total anthocyanin was obtained using ethanol-citric acid 3% solvent at 30 minutes extraction time of 226.36 mg / L. The highest color intensity was obtained using ethanol-citric acid 3% solvent at 30 minutes extraction time of 0.925. The strongest antioxidant activity (IC50) was obtained using 3% aquadest-citric acid solvent at 30 minutes extraction time of 3.569 ppm. The strongest toxicity activity (LC50) in ethanol-citric acid 3% solvent was 80.023 ppm.

Abstract

This research aims to investigate the optimal hydrolysis temperature and sulfuric acid (H2SO4) concentration in isolating nanocrystalline cellulose (NCC) from kepok banana pseudostem fiber with the best yield and water solubility. In this research, cellulose fiber was delignified with NaOH at 80°C for 5 minutes, then followed by bleaching with hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) for 30 minutes twice. NCC was isolated through acid hydrolysis with H2SO4 (40%, 45%, 50%, 55% v/v) at 45 °C, 50 °C, 55 °C, 60 °C for 1 hour and ultrasonicated for 5 minutes. NCC crystal was then characterized through Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM), and water solubility. TEM analysis showed the isolated NCC has a measured length of 125 – 144 nm. The highest NCC yield was obtained at 60°C and 55% H2SO4 at 26.75%. This analysis showed that NCC yield increases with increasing H2SO4 concentration and hydrolysis temperature. The lowest water solubility obtained is 0%, which shows the purity of the cellulose used to isolate NCC.
