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.

Abstract

People's habits in consuming Aceh noodles make the noodle industry grow rapidly, but the waste treatment process becomes less effective. In the process of making the noodles, dye waste is produced in the form of tartrazine dye and need to be processed before being disposed into the environment. The research purpose was to describe the decomposition of tartrazine using ozonolysis and solar radiation methods as one of the solutions in the waste treatment process. The use of ZnO as catalyst is to accelerate the decomposition reaction of the noodle washing wastes. The results of the analysis concluded that ozonolysis methods are more effective in decomposing tartrazine in the noodle wash wasted by solar irradiation method. The sun exposure decomposed tartrazine by 99.74% using 0.015 g ZnO for 150 min and tartrazine content obtained 0.022 mg/L with a sunlight intensity of 1.24 x 1016 cm-2 s-1. Ozonolisis exposure decomposed tartrazine by 98.68% using 0.020 g ZnO for 12 minutes and tartrazine content obtained 0.112 mg / L.

Abstract

Purple sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas var. Ayamurasaki) is one of typical sweet tubers which is also commonly well known as Ipomoea blackie due to blackish purple (solid purple) tuber skin and flesh. The sweet potato can be transformed into flour or pasta and used to substitute wheat flour in the production of composite bread. Instead of synthetic chemical compounds, α-amylase isolated from the yeast Saccharomycopsis fibuligera can be added to the flour or dough of the composite bread to improve its quality. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effect of α–amylase addition on the quality of the purple sweet potato flour and pasta composite bread. The observed properties of the bread were crumbs morphology of the bread, volume increment, bread height, texture, and organoleptic test. The results showed that addition of the α-amylase to the dough of the composite bread increased the volume increment value from 155.0% to 177.1% and from 335.7% to 342.1% for the sweet potato flour and pasta bread composite, respectively. While height of the bread increased from 4.7 to 5.1 cm and from 6.9 to 7.8 cm after addition of the enzyme for the sweet potato flour and pasta bread composite, respectively. Composite bread with α-amylase addition has softer texture and higher preference. Morphology examination result showed that starch granules in the bread crums with α-amylase treatment were disrupted. Most plausibly, the enzymes degrade the starch granules and produced dextrin which inhibited the cross linking formation between starch and protein, and therefore, the speed of hardening process of the bread can be reduced.

Abstract

A research has been conducted to investigate the HKSA equation model of a set of carbamic derivative insecticidal compounds based on the hydrofobic, electronic and steric descriptors. The descriptors are calculated by a method of PM3 while the the insecticidal activity are obtained by the experiment. The relationship of the descriptos and the activities are determined by multilinear reggression analysis. The result of the analysis then provide a best equation model that can be used to design new carbamic derivative insecticidal compounds. These design might be recommended  to be synthesized in the experimental works.

Abstract

Indonesia as one of the biggest tuna fish produsers in the world, produce tuna fish bones large enough. Since tuna fish bone contain high calcium it is potentially to be the raw material of hydroxyapatite. Hydroxyapatite are inorganic compounds constituent of bones and teeth has the moleculer formula Ca5(PO4)3OH. Synthesis of hydroxyapatite can be done with precipitation method through tuna fish bone calcination process at the temperature 900°C for 5 hours to obtain calcium compounds in the form of calcium oxide. Calcium wich has been obtained added phosphoric acid 0,6 M with flow rate/rapid 1 mL/minute. Controlled synthesis process parameters are pH 10 of solution. Yield of hydroxyapatite generated after synthesis with of the precipitation time 12 hours are of 91.15%. hydroxyapatite product obtained was analyzed by FTIR(Fourier Transform Infrared) and XRD (X-Ray Diffraction). FTIR analysis indicate the presence of OH groups, PO4 and CO3. Based on the resulting diffraction of XRD analysis, crystallite size obtained each of 211.29 nm structure is hexagonal. Scherrer method was used to obtain crystallite size.

Abstract

Synthesis of zeolite from fly ash obtained from Jeneponto Bosowa energypower plant have been conducted by hydrothermal method. This study was conducted to determine the characteristics of a synthetic zeolite fly ash and synthetic zeolite adsortivitas to metallic lead (Pb). Fly ash which is the main source of silica prepared by the process of concentration variations reflux with HCl (2M; 3M; 4M and 5M). Manufacture of sodium silicate solution by dissolving NaOH fly ash into the proportion of 10 ml per 1 gram of fly ash. Synthesis process by adding sodium aluminate into a solution of sodium silicate with a ratio of 1: 1 and then put in an autoclave as a hydrothermal process at a temperature of 120 ° C for 2 hours. Hydrothermal product obtained is characterized by X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) to determine the type and intensity of the zeolite crystals obtained from the synthesis process. XRD analysis results showed the highest intensities are in the process of reflux 5M with type zeolite obtained in the form of zeolite ITQ-34, zeolite (K, Ba) -G, L, sodalite and alumina-silica minerals such as eucryptit and aluminum oxide. The resulting zeolite able to absorb the metals Pb2+ at 99.04%, which is made with a concentration of 20 ppm of 50 mL with a mass of 1 gram of zeolite.
