Abstract

Coal, which are decomposition resulted of natural biological processes over the years in which the humic acid compound contained. The purposes of this research was tocharacterize and to compare the humic acid of coal from South Borneo. The isolation of humic acid by leaching process uses natrium karbonat 0.1 N and fractionation uses sulfuric acid 6M. The fraction was purified and the deposit was washed by sulfuric acid 1 M, aquadest and ethanol. Moisture content, ash content, cation exchange capacity, C/N ratio and E4/E6ratiowithspectroscopy were characterized. The yields of humic acid areobtained 12.35% of coal. C/N ratio of humic acid 20.72. The infrared spectroscopy results of humic acid from coal figures more of aromatic and -OH group with lower E4/E6 ratio, while from peat soil shows more of aliphatic and carboxylic group supported higher E4/E6 ratio. Kapasitas tukar kation 640,59 mek/100g; dan mempunyai daya serap terhadap ion logam yang cukup baik.

Abstract

Water pollution in Tempe Lake was consequence by people activity in around of  Tempe Lake, such as domestic waste and agriculture waste. One of the dangerous pollutions which was resulted from the waste was phenol pollution. Phenol waste reduction efforts on Tempe Lake could be solved by biodegradation process using bacteria. This research aimed to: 1) Get the bacteria which was able to degrade phenol on samples sourced from Tempe Lake, Wajo South Sulawesi and 2) Identify the type of bacteria that can degrade phenol sourced from Lake Tempe, Wajo South Sulawesi. The Metods used in the research was making of media, isolation and purification of bacteria, identification of bacteria and testing the ability of phenol degradation. Bacterial identification tests include staining gram and biochemical tests (TSIA, SIM, MR-VP, urea, citric and sugar fermentation). The degradation test was performed using UV-Vis spectrophotometry with colorimetric method using follin reagent. The results showed that the bacterial identified as the genus Enterobacter spp and Klebsella spp which were gram negative bacteria. Test  of phenol degradation at 48 hour incubation using UV-Vis shows that bacterial isolates C1F was able to degrade phenol 500 ppm to 3,091 ppm, bacterial isolate S1F was able to degrade phenol 500 ppm to 5,1153 ppm and bacterial isolate H2F was able to degrade phenol 500 ppm to 7,7834 ppm.

Abstract

Indonesia as the third largest grain producer in the world produces large amounts of bran. High contain Free Fatty Acid (FFA) in rice bran oil causes it can be converted into the fatty acid ethyl esters (biodiesel) by esterification and transesterification methods. The rice bran oil was obtained by rice bran extraction using n-hexane. The esterification process was catalyzed by HCl. In this study, the transesterification process to convert triglycerides into ethyl esters (biodiesel) was conducted by the addition of KOH as a neutralizer and a catalyst Oil and ethanol by ratio 1:6 using 0,5% KOH  as catalysator were reacted by utilizing 47 kHz ultrasonic wave for 45, 60 and 75 minutes. Biodiesel conversion value obtained were 49,23%; 70,55% and 52,04% respectively. Biodiesel product spectrum was analyzed using FTIR and GCMS instrument. The density, viscosity and flash point is also measured.  FTIR analysis on all variations give similar data spectrum, where the ethyl ester products are characterized by typical bands at specific frequencies such as -C=O; -C-C; -C-H (sp3) and = C-H (sp2) stretch. Based on the data from GCMS spectrum, the product components are ethyl palmitate, ethyl linoleate, ethyl stearate and ethyl oleate.

Abstract

Avocado seed (Persea americana) is recognized as one of medicinal plants. It contains several secondary metabolites, which have toxic activity. However, efforts to identify active compounds from avocado seeds (Persea americana) are still relatively rare. Therefore, isolation and toxicity assay have been conducted foward the active compound of avocado seed. Maceration one kilogram of seed dried powder by ethanol obtained 49,7464 gram extract. Separation of etanol extract by column chromatography generated 0,0698 grams of pure white needle crytal, which is positively triterpenoid based on Lieberman-Buchard test. In addition, infrared spectrum showed the existence of OH, C=C, C-C, C=O, -C-H, -CH3,-CH2 and C-O stretch, which support the presumed compound. The result of toxicity test on Artemia salina Leach showed that the extract, fraction and pure isolates of the etanol extract are toxic with LC50 values 13,274 g/mL; 9,528 g/mL and 8,128 g/mL, respectively.

Abstract

The availability of the fuel oil in the world are declining, so that alternative energy is needed to meet the needs of the fuel. One of the alternative energy is biodiesel (ethyl/methyl ester). The research aimed to determine the optimal conversion value of ethyl ester, to identify ester components and their concentration. The biodiesel was produced from candlenut oil (Aleurites mollucana) ethanol by the ratio of 1:6 using 0.5% KOH catalyst which reacted by utilizing ultrasonic wave (47 kHz) for 45, 60 and 75 minutes. Biodiesel conversion value were 3.9%, 1.6% and 1.2% respectively. The biodiesel obtained then were analyzed by FTIR and result the pattern of fatty acid ethyl esters. In addition, analysis by GC-MS revealed the concentration under variation times of ethyl palmitate, ethyl linoleic, ethyl oleic and ethyl stearic from variation time  45,  60  and  75 minutes. They were 6.34%, 1.76% and 1.56%), (25.94%, 6.46% and 7.46%), (31.42%, 8.17% and 8.79%) and 2.13%.

Abstract

The needs of electrical energy that increase year by year cause electrical energy crisis. Alternative energy sources which are potential to be developed as a substitute of fossil fuels are organic solar cells or DSSC (Dye Sensitized Solar Cell). The purpose of this study is to determine the value of efficiency resulting from Ketapang leaf extract and to determine the effect of compound content in Ketapang leaf extract toward the value of DSSC efficiency. This study investigate the efficiency value of the DSSC which are senzitized by the N-hexane, ethyl acetate, methanol extract of the Ketapang leaf and the mixture extract. The compounds from each axtract are characterized used UV-Vis and FTIR. The measurement results of the efficiency value from n-hexane of Ketapang leaf extract, ethyl acetate, methanol and the mixture were respectively 0.0051%, 0.09%, 0.12% and 0.22%. The results of UV-Vis characterization with maximum wavelength were respectively 667 nm, 665.9 nm, 665.9  nm and 209 nm. The FTIR identified an auxchrome group such as -OH,  C-N, -NH, and C-O as well as chromophore groups such as C=O and C=C. These data support that the existence of flavonoid and alcaloid compound in the mixture extract generate significant efficiency value.
