Abstract

The controlled morphology of mesoporous silica particle with colloidal silica as precursor solution was investigated using spray drying method. The colloidal silica solution was made from sodium silicate (waterglass) using sol-gel method. The operating condition of spray dring such as precursor solution volumetric rate and hot air flowrate was varied to study the effect of the silica particle’s morphology. Two-fluid nozzle was used as atomizer with volumetric rate ranged from 1.6 mL/min to 5 mL/min, and hot air heated from tubular furnace with flowrate ranged from 210 L/min to 414 L/min, both resulting doughnut-like shape with more doughnut fraction with increased volumetric rate. With the increase of volumetric rate from 1.6 mL/min to 5 mL/min, the surface area and total pore volume are tend to decrease (168.234 to 131.001 m2/g and 0.1652 to 0.1251 cc/g respectively). Meanwhile, for increasing hot air flowrate from 210 L/min to 414 L/min, the surface area are tend to increase (135.353 to 168.234 m2/g) but total pore volume tend to decrease (0.1921 to 0.1652 cc/g).

Abstract

One of the promising solutions to overcome the liquid loading problem in natural gas production is using a foaming agent. The extreme condition in the gas well causes the foam used tends to break up. Therefore, it is required to enhance the foam stability by adding a stabilizer agent. This research aims to investigate the effect of silica nanoparticles as a surfactant stabilizer to obtain a high-stability foam using silica nanofluid. Silica nanofluid was synthesized from sodium silicate solution by the solgel method. Then, the colloidal silica was added to the surfactant solution without a coupling agent. The effects of aging time and silica concentration were investigated. The results show that the surface tension tends to increase with the increase of aging time and silica concentration but decrease in foam stability which is indicated by a decrease in the foam half-life time. The best foam stability is obtained in silica nanofluids with an aging time of 6 hours and a silica concentration of 30 ppm, which shows a foam half-life of 42 hours and can improve foam stability with several parameters representing the conditions of the gas well

Abstract

The use of biodiesel leads to corrosion of automotive material, which can potentially shorten engine lifetime. The study aims to investigate the effect of temperature and contact time on the corrosion characteristics of carbon steel upon exposure to biodiesel synthesized from used frying oil. The corrosion rate of carbon steel was analyzed based on weight loss measurement according to the standard of ASTM G31 as affected by temperature and contact time. The immersion temperatures used in this study were 30oC, 40oC, and 70o, respectively. The contact times studied were 30 days, 40 days, and 50 days respectively. The results show that the increase of temperature and contact time of biodiesel on carbon steel surface speeds up the corrosion rate. Maximum corrosion rate (0.083 mmy) was observed on the carbon steel contacted to biodiesel at 70oC for 50 days. The SEM results showed an irregular shape of the corroded carbon steel surface. XRD / FTIR analysis of carbon steel samples show the presence of peaks, detected as Fe2O3, FeO(OH) and Fe2O2CO3, as the corrosion products. Keywords: biodiesel; carbon steel; corrosion; FAME; used frying oil

Abstract

Pemanfaatan gas alam sebagai sumber energi alternatif masih belum optimal karena masalah beban cairan pada sumur gas, surfaktan merupakan solusi yang menjanjikan untuk mengatasi masalah tersebut, namun dengan kondisi sumur gas yang ekstrem diperlukan stabilizer untuk meningkatkan stabilitasnya. Penelitian ini mempelajari pengaruh pencampuran surfaktan dan stabilizer berupa silika (SiO2) nanopartikel yang disintesa dari sodium silikat (Na2SiO3) untuk mendapatkan kondisi optimum nanofluida SiO2 terhadap waktu paruh busa yang menunjukkan kestabilannya. Silika nanopartikel disintesa dengan metode sol-gel dan dipertahankan dalam fase koloid stabil yang kemudian didispersikan ke dalam larutan surfaktan tanpa perlu penambahan bahan penyambung. Nanofluida SiO2 kemudian dimatangkan dengan variasi waktu dan konsentrasi silika. Dari hasil yang diperoleh menunjukkan bahwa peningkatan waktu pematangan dan konsentrasi silika memengaruhi nilai tegangan permukaan yang berakibat menurunkan waktu paruh busa. Penurunan kestabilan busa terjadi karena peristiwa adsorbsi fisik molekul surfaktan oleh silika nanopartikel yang ditunjukkan oleh nilai tegangan permukaan, karena silika yang bersifat hidrofilik akan membentuk ikatan fisik dengan surfaktan, semakin meningkatnya waktu pematangan dan konsentrasi silika yang didispersikan kedalam larutan akan meningkatkan adsorbsi molekul surfaktan pada permukaan silika dan menyebabkan terjadinya peningkatan nilai tegangan permukaan nanofluida. Stabilitas busa terbaik diperoleh pada sampel dengan waktu pematangan selama 6 jam dan konsentrasi silika 0,001% menghasilkan waktu paruh selama 1170 menit yang jika dibandingkan dengan surfaktan tanpa penambahan silika nanopartikel hanya memeroleh waktu paruh selama 90 menit, sehingga penggunaan silika nanopartikel sebagai stabilizer memberikan efek yang signifikan terhadap kestabilan busa.

Abstract

In this research, polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)/silica nanofibers have been synthesized using electrospinning technique. Solutions of sodium silicate (Na2SiO3) in water and PVA flakes were blended and then processed by electrospinning method to obtain PVA/silica nanofibers. The effect of silica concentration on the resulting morphology and diameter of as-spun nanofibers were investigated by using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The electrolyte uptake and retention of the as-spun nanofibers were measured. The silica concentration has an effect on the resulting nanofibers, where an increase in silica concentration resulted in a decrease on the diameter of the fibers. The manufactured nanofibers have an average diameter of 200-300 nm. The electrolyte uptake and retention values are also affected by the concentration of the silica in the electrospun solution, with the electrolyte uptake and retention values decreasing with the increase in silica concentration. The best values obtained are 151% for electrolyte uptake and 60% for electrolyte retention, which shows potential for PVA/silica nanofibers as an alternative material for supercapacitor separators.

Abstract

Zinc Oxide is a semiconductor with relatively non-toxic, cheap and abundant properties which can be applied to LEDs. ZnO colloids are unstable due to further chemical reactions and coagulation so the addition of silica is needed to inhibit the growth of ZnO. ZnO was synthesized using sol-gel method by hydrolyze zinc acetate dihydrate in ethanol solution. Silica colloids was prepared by dissolving waterglass in distilled water at a temperature of 60 °C then passed into cation resin that has been activated using 2N HCl for ion exchange with Na+ to H+. In this study, the spray drying method was used to produce ZnO-silica nanocomposite. Morphological characterization of particles formed was analyzed using Scanning Electrostatic Microscope (SEM) (Zeiss Evo MA LS, Cambridge, England). X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) (Cu-Kα 1.54 A0, 40 kV, 30 mA, X’pert Pro, PAN alytical, Netherlands) and Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) (Therniscientific Nicolet iS10, US) were used to analyze the crystallinity and group functionalization, respectively. The results show that more particles are formed on 10% concentration volume of ZnO colloids rather than 5%.

Abstract

Composites Graphene/Fe3O4 have been successfully synthesized by the electrophoretic deposition method using pulse direct current (PDC) on a nickel foam substrate. In this study, we synthesized graphene and Fe3O4 separately before the two materials were composited. We synthesize graphene from coconut shell charcoal and synthesize Fe3O4 from pure iron. Graphene and Fe3O4 which have been formed, are dissolved with demineralized water as a dispersing medium so that a solution of 1.5 mg / mL is obtained which is then compiled layer by layer on the surface of the substrate with variations in deposition time of 10 to 30 minutes at room temperature. This aims to determine the effect of deposition time on the formation of graphene/Fe3O4 composites. The results showed that the use of PDC was able to precipitate graphene/Fe3O4 composites on the surface of the substrate. The use of longer deposition time, results in more graphene/Fe3O4 composites which adhere to the substrate surface. This result is also supported by XRD testing which shows the longer the deposition time, the diffraction peaks appear sharper.

Abstract

Here, we reported the utilization of coconut shell charcoal used for solid acid catalysts and its performance in the esterification reaction of acetic acid and methanol. The graphitization of coconut shell charcoal was carried out by the calcination and KOH activation at the temperature of 400 °C for an hour and continued at the temperature of 800 °C for an hour under nitrogen flow resulted in graphitic carbon. The effect of the addition of KOH activation was observed by varied the weight ratio of coconut shell charcoal as raw material (RM) and KOH. The selected weight ratio of RM:KOH was 1:1, 1:2, and 1:4. The resulted graphitic carbon was sulfonated by heating with the sulfuric acid to obtain a solid acid catalyst. The sulfonic time was evaluated for 5 and 10 hours. The generated particles were characterized to examine the morphology, the crystallinity, the specific surface area, the chemical bonding, and the ionic capacity using Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), X-Ray diffraction (XRD), nitrogen gas absorption-desorption, Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), and titration method, respectively. The best condition for graphitization of raw material is the use of RM:KOH = 1:4, resulting in the highest surface area reaching 1259.67 m2/g and the most dominant of the sulfonic group of −SO3 bond. Furthermore, increasing the sulfonating time from 5 to 10 hours led to the increase of the yield of esterification reaction from 85% to 96.57% for graphite synthesized using RM:KOH = 1:4. Copyright © 2020 by Authors, Published by BCREC Group.
