Abstract

Oil Palm Empty Fruit Bunches (OPEFB) from the palm oil processing industry is discharged to the final processing site without any use. OPEFB can be used as raw material for composting by adding active organic liquid fertilizer (ALOF). This study aims to determine the composter design of pH and volatile suspended solids (VSS) by varying the capacity of the composter so that good quality compost is produced. The composting process is done by cutting oil palm empty fruit bunches with a size of 1-3 cm then put into the composter with a capacity variations of 2, 5 and 10 kg and added active organic liquid fertilizer to reach the optimum moisture content (MC) value of 55-65%. The results of the analysis are compared with SNI 19-7030-2004. The parameters analyzed during composting are pH and VSS. The results of composting that meet the compost criteria based on SNI 19-7030-2004 are composter capacity of 5 kg, where the results obtained during composting are pH 7.5 and VSS 211.640 mg/L.

Abstract

Anaerobic digestion is the decomposition of organic matter by microbes into methane, carbon dioxide, and hydrogen sulfide in the absence of oxygen. This study aimed to obtain the stability of the one stage anaerobic digester in biogas production that was seen through pH and alkalinity parameters. The process was carried out by varying the temperature, which is 35 °C, 45 °C, and 55 °C with pH maintained 7 (± 0.2). Analysis of pH and alkalinity was carried out to assess the stability of reactor using samples taken from the reactor overflow. The pH profile produced was relatively stable with a pH range between 6.8 - 7.3. The resulting alkalinity is relatively stable with aalkalinity range between 3.500 – 4.500 mg/L. The volume of biogas produced at 35 °C, 45 °C, and 55 °C respectively are 2065 mL, 3830 mL, and 4570 mL with the highest concentrations of methane (CH4), Carbon dioxide (CO2) and trace Hydrogen Sulfide (H2S) at a temperature of 55 oC obtained the value of the composition of methane, carbon dioxide, and hydrogen sulfide each at 89,000 %, 11,000 %, and 0,011 %.

Abstract

Mixing is essential to increase the efficiency of interactions between active microbes and organic matter during the anaerobic digestion process. The purpose of this research is to study the effect of mixing rate on the stability of one stage anaerobic digesters in biogas production in terms of pH and alkalinity. The production of biogas from palm oil mill effluent was carried out in a 6000 ml batch reactor at varying mixing rates: 100 rpm, 150 rpm, 200 rpm, 250 rpm, and 300 rpm. The reactor is operated with a mixture condition maintained at a pH of 7 ± 0.2 and an operating temperature of 55 ° C. NaHCO3 is added to the mixture to control and maintain the pH of the mixture. Analysis of pH and alkalinity is carried out every day to see the reactor stability. The best results were obtained at a mixing rate of 200 rpm with the pH produced stable during the process is 7. The alkalinity profile produced at each mixing rate was relatively stable with an alkalinity range is 3500-4500 mg/L. The best mixing rate is 200 rpm with a stable pH and alkalinity and the highest biogas production is 457 ml/day.

Abstract

Adsorption is the process of fluid molecules contacting the surface of a solid material. This study aims to remove carbon dioxide (CO2) gas in biogas using natural zeolite-based adsorbent pellets by adsorption and desorption of CO2 from the adsorbent using air. CO2 removal was carried out to determine the percentage of CO2 removal efficiency with variations in biogas flow rates (100 mL/minute, 300 mL/minute, and 500 mL/minute) and variations in the type of adsorbent pellets (particle size, activation time, calcination time, and dealumination activation treatment). Determination of the percentage of CO2 removal is carried out by flowing the biogas into the column and contacting it with the adsorbent continuously for 30 minutes and the output gas is collected in a gas collector to analyze the remaining CO2 content. The results showed that the best CO2 removal was 97.7% using an adsorbent with a particle size of 140 mesh, 4 hours of calcination, 90 minutes of activation time, and dealumination activation at a flow rate of 100 mL/minute. The breakthrough characteristic curve presents the characteristic “S” profile at constant flow rate (100 mL/minute).
