Abstract

Oil palm empty fruit bunches (OPEFB), have not many been used as a have economic value material. OPEFB fiber content can be using as a filler to composites fabrication. The fiber contained in the OPEFB can be increase composites quality because have high thermal and mechanical properties. SEM analysis shows that OPEFB waste with a size of 63 and 90 ?m is suitable to be use as a filler because of the compatibility of the fiber and matrix matrix. As with the results of the DSC analysis, the melting point of HDPE-TKKS composite with 63 ?m fiber size reaches 133.58 0C while the melting point of HDPE-TKKS composite with 90 ?m fiber size reaches 134.41 0C. The FTIR test results also show that the indications of the two samples have the same chemical composition, namely lignicellulose. The best tensile strength is obtained which is equal to 21.11 MPa and the force required to break the composite is 391.56 N, these results were obtained from composites with a ratio of 60: 40 (matrix : filler) and 90 µm fiber size.Key words: Plastic, HDPE, fiber, OPEFB, composite

Abstract

Environmentally friendly plastics can be degraded biologically in an anaerobic environment. This plastic is synthesized from starch such as sago starch which is available in abundance. In the form of bioplastics, its mechanical properties are still not compared to conventional plastics derived from crude oil, so its application is limited. The incorporation of filler material increases its mechanical properties, one of the selected fillers is hemp fiber as used in this study. Thermoplastic starch from sago with flax fiber as a filler and the addition of Polypropylene to improve mechanical properties with a certain composition to maintain its natural biodegradability. The mechanical properties analyzed were tensile strength, elongation and modulus of elasticity. Water absorption tests were also carried out to observe the water resistance properties. The results of the tensile strength test showed that the best tensile strength value of 9.32 Mpa was obtained at the addition of 35% fiber with a TPS: PP ratio of 1:1.5. The same conditions were obtained for the percent elongation with the results of 10.16% and the modulus of elasticity was 91.73 Mpa. Water absorption showed that 55% filler gave the lowest water     absorption, namely 4.41% at a ratio of TPS: PP 1:0.5. The addition of fiber filler into the bio-composite affects the tensile strength,    elongation and modulus of elasticity, the higher the volume of filler entering the bio-composite, the lower the value of tensile strength, elongation and modulus of elasticity, or vice versa. The ratio of addition of polypropylene matrix is also influential, the higher the ratio contributes to the tensile strength, elongation and higher modulus of elasticity. High water absorption capacity will reduce the performance of biocomposite, so the lower the water absorption ability, the better the quality of the biocomposite product and the wider its application

Abstract

Some materials derived from plants can be used as a source of biodegradable thermoplastic materials such as rice, potatoes, corn, sweet potatoes, sago, etc. In this research, thermoplastic sago starch (TPS) with a mixture of two types of fillers was synthesized to become environmentally friendly composites that can be naturally degraded in a relatively short time compared to other conventional plastics which decompose in decades, hence can contribute to environmental conservation efforts. Increasing the strength of bio composite through the presence of fillers will expand its application such as for household application. Sago is available in large quantities in Indonesia and needs to be utilized optimally to increase its added value. TPS is synthesized using sorbitol as a plasticizer so that it becomes a starch paste. Composites are moulded by means of compression moulding using TPS and cellulose as a filler and Polypropylene (PP). The fillers used were sawdust and rice husk with several variations to obtain optimal combination, to improve the mechanical performance of the composites. For rice husk fibre, the highest tensile strength value 13.82 MPa, found at 40% fibre with ratio of TPS: PP 1: 0.5, and the highest elongation value was 16.47% at 40% fibre at ratio of TPS : PP 1: 0.5. For Sawdust fibre, the highest tensile strength value 11.08 MPa, obtained at 20% fibre at ratio of TPS : PP 1 : 1, and the highest elongation value was 18.57% at  20% fibre with ratio of  TPS : PP 1 : 1. Type of filler has different effect on the tensile strength and elongation of the bio composite,

Abstract

Cyclone separator is equipment used to control emissions  from gas flow in industrial processes. The principle of removing particulates from the gas flow in this tool is to use the centrifugal force. The centrifugal force generated from the rotating flow will make dust       particles wasted into the cyclone wall where the dust will then fall into the hopper. Adsorption is a series of processes for the accumulation of a substance (adsorbate) on the surface of another substance (adsorbent). Adsorption can occur because of the energy on the surface and the attraction force on the surface. This study aims to obtain a good CO2 adsorption efficiency from modifying the cyclone separator using an adsorption column, analyzing the CO2 gas adsorption process produced from the biomass system at the utility unit boiler station at the Palm Oil Mill (PMO) using a modified cyclone. This simulation was carried out using the Autodesk Inventor Professional 2017 (Student Version) application for the descripction of the tool as a preprocessor and Ansys 2019 R3 (Student Version) applications as a processor and post processor. The variations that were applied included the adsorption column bed height of 3100 mm and 4650 mm, respectively, CO2 gas flow rates of 10, 12.5, 15, 17.5, 20, 22.5 dan 25 m/s and mass loading 0,001 kg/s. The results obtained in the most optimal modification of the cyclone separator are at a bed height of 3100 mm with the highest adsorption percentage 93.437%, the highest flow 91.974% with a pressure drop of 1000 Pa.

Abstract

In this paper, two small cyclones with the same hydraulic diameter and volume, which one is square and the other one is round (Lapple cyclone), are numerically compared. A pre-processor software GAMBIT was employed to set up the configuration, discretisation, and boundary conditions of the cyclone. The characteristics of the cyclone being studied was 0.2 m in diameter, receiving a gas flow rate of 0.1 m3/s with a particle mass loading of 0.01 kg/s. A commercial CFD code FLUENT 6.2.16 was employed to simulate the flow field and particle dynamics in the cyclone. The Reynolds averaged Navier–Stokes equations with Reynolds Stress Turbulence Model (RSTM) are solved by use of the finite volume method based on the SIMPLE pressure correction algorithm in the computational domain. The Eulerian–Lagrangian computational procedure is used to predict particles tracking in the cyclones. The velocity fluctuations are simulated using the Discrete Random Walk (DRW).The results show that collection efficiency of square cyclone is the better with increasing flow rate than round cyclone. The pressure drop in square cyclone is higher than the pressure drop in small round one.

Abstract

Palm Oil Mill Effluent (POME) merupakan salah satu limbah minyak kelapa sawit yang harus diolah karena dapat berakibat buruk terhadap lingkungan. POME memiliki kandungan gas rumah kaca yang cukup tinggi, yang  berkontribusi  terhadap pemanasan global. Saat ini, salah satu jalur pengelolaan POME adalah dengan mengolah POME menjadi biogas. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menghilangkan kandungan impurities biogas yaitu gas karbon  dioksida  (CO2) dan hidrogen sulfida (H2S) sehingga dapat menghasilkan gas metana (CH4) dengan kemunian yang tinggi. Penelitian ini dilakukan dengan mensimulasikan pemurniaan biogas menggunakan absorber packed column pada Aspen Hysys V.10 dengan menvariasikan debit air yg masuk pada absorber packed column serta komposisi awal pada biogas. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian diperoleh bahwa pemurnian biogas menggunakan air pada absorber packed column dapat meningkatkan kemurnian gas metana (CH4) pada biogas yang diikuti dengan meningkatkan debit air yang digunakan. Namun air yang digunakan sebagai pemurnian biogas juga dapat mengurangi kandungan gas karbon dioksida (CO2) dan gas hidrogen sulfida (H2S) dalam biogas karena kedua gas tersebut memiliki nilai kelarutan yang lebih tinggi dibandingkan dengan gas metana (CH4). Dimana kelarutan karbondioksida (CO2) dalam air 1,45 g/L dan kelarutan hidrogen sulfida (H2S) dalam air 4 g/L lebih tinggi ketimbang kelarutan metana (CH4) dalam air yaitu 0,035 g/L. Nilai HHV (High Heating Value) biogas meningkat dengan meningkatnya kemurnian dari gas metana pada biogas karena di dalam biogas, gas yang terkandung paling banyak adalah gas metana. Bertambahnya komposisi dari gas metana pada biogas diikuti dengan meningkatnya debit air yang digunakan pada absorber packed column. Sehingga, nilai HHV (High Heating Value) biogas dapat meningkat yang diikuti dengan meningkatnya kemurnian dari gas metana pada biogas.
