Abstract

Tree breeding program has been conducted in Indonesia in order to produce more productive teak trees. Recently, from this program, superior clones (clone source) of teak have been selected for the establishment of the wider plantations. These clones show a good performance on growth characteristics such as stem diameter and tree height. However, it is important to evaluate wood quality of selected superior teak. Physical (heartwood percentage, wood color, basic density, and shrinkage per 1% change in moisture content) and mechanical (static bending strength and compressive strength) properties were investigated for 10-year old of two sources type of teak (superior and conventional) planted in Randublatung, Central Java, Indonesia. There was not significant different between superior and conventional teak was found in all physical and mechanical properties of both teak wood, suggesting that wood properties of both teak are similar at the same age. All trees are in juvenile phase as show by increasing of basic density from pith to bark. Basic density has positively correlation with all mechanical properties measured. It can be said that basic density can be used to estimate mechanical properties.Keywords: conventional teak, mechanical properties, physical properties, superior teak

Abstract

The aim of this study was to find out the effect of Ethephon, an ethylene releasing compound, in a combination with sulfuric acid resin production Pinus merkusii.  The tested stimulants were ETRAT; SR4; 20% sulfuric acid; 20% sulfuric acid - Ethephon 2%; 3.3% sulfuric acid – 4.1% Ethephon; and sulfuric acid – 8.3% Ethephon. Trees without stimulant spraying were the controls. The results showed that for daily production, the first-day observation gave the highest value but decreased drastically after second-day observation in a varied degree depent on the stimulants. On the basis of accumulated production, the addition of Ethephon in a high or low level of sulfuric acid concentration exhibited significantly higher resin production compared to that of ETRAT; SR4; and 20% sulfuric acid stimulants as well as control trees. It increased resin production by 98.0-150.6% compared to control trees in class age of VII and increased by 140.9-227.1% in class age of IV stands. Moderate significant correlations (r=0.65) were observed between the values of resin production and tree diameter (controls) as well as between the values of resin production and tree diameter of trees treated by sulfuric acid stimulants (r=0.65-0.82).

Abstract

Indonesian active charcoal demands are relatively high, due to the increase of active charcoal usage in industrial sector. To supply active charcoal demand in industrial sector, sufficient amount of basic materials are needed. One of the alternatives is Mahogany wood waste. The aims of this research are (1) to use wood waste of Mahogany (Swietenia macrophylla King.) as a raw material for active charcoal, (2) to identify active charcoal characteristics that are formed, (3) to obtain type and concentration of chemical substance that is suitable for active charcoal forming process, (4) to provide better characteristics, and (5) to apply in the best active charcoal on well-water purification to bind kation in order to increase water quality.Activation was conducted chemically and the types of chemical substance for activation were Na2CO3 and NaOH with concentration of 1%; 1.5%; 2%; 2.5% and 3%. The observed parameters were sucrose contents, moisture contents, volatile matter contents, ash contents, carbon contents, adsorptive capacity of benzene, and adsorptive capacity of iodium and adsorptive capacity of methyline blue.The result and analysis showed that wood waste of Mahogany can be used as a raw material of active charcoal forming process; and Na2CO3 and NaOH can be used as activators. The best active charcoal (with activator Na2CO3 1.5 %) quality was having 64.41% sucrose content, 8.24% moisture content, 3.2% ash content, 19.4% volatile matter content, 77.4% carbon content, 14.48% adsorptive capacity of benzene, 1230.93 mg/g adsorptive capacity of iodium and 130.93 mg/g adsorptive capacity of methyline blue. Well-water quality after the best active charcoal had been added showed decreasing of cation element such as iron (Fe), zinc (Zn) and mangan (Mn
