Abstract

Fiber (mesocarp fiber) is a solid waste generated in the oil palm factory which potentially used as fertilizer through composting. Addition of Azotobacter sp. in composting can increase nitrogen content, which improve the quality of compost. The purpose of this research was to determine the effect of the enrichment of Azotobacter sp. in composting of oil palm pressed fiber and analyzing the nutrient content and its potential as a planting medium of pakcoy (Brassica rapa). Descriptive method was used in the process of composting by assessing the physical and chemical properties of the compost produced. Fiber compost testing as a planting medium was carried out using a nonfactorial Randomized Complete Block Design in 3 variations of 30%, 50% and 70% treatment, and each mixed with subsoil. The results of compost physical parameters analysis showed the dark brown color, and the texture showed more crumb in the compost enriched with Azotobacter sp. The best pH was found in the compost treated with the addition of Azotobacter sp., which was 8.36. Analysis of compost application on pakcoy growth showed that the highest leaf area (69.73 cm2) and number of  stomata (36.4 mm2)-1) were found in the F2P2 treatment (Azotobacter Fiber Compost 50% + Subsoil 50%); The highest root length (28.38 cm), shoot dry weight (2.58 g), and root dry weight (2.26 g) were found in the F2P3 treatment (Azotobaacter Fiber Compost. 70% + Subsoil 30%). From the results of these experiments, the compost enriched with azotobacter has beneficial effects on crop growth could be attributed to soil amendments.

Abstract

Sounding is the process of measuring and calculating a product to find out the amount. In the process of CPO sounding, measurements are made of the temperature of the oil in the storage tank. Storage tank is a tank used to store crude palm oil (CPO) produced before shipping. Sounding crude palm oil is an oil measurement process that includes the measurement of CPO levels and temperatures as an item to get the mass of CPO (kg CPO). The process of measuring the volume of oil is done using a sounding meter dipped in CPO in a storage tank to the measuring table. Temperature measurements are carried out using a thermometer that is inserted into a storage tank. In conditions on the ground that the measurement of the storage tank or storage tank is done manually to calculate the tank volume and there are many weaknesses. In this study, we will describe the sounding technique or measure the volume of oil in a storage tank by means of automation, where the automation system is designed with the aim of being able to carry out the measurement process on the storage tank in an automatic way. The results of this study can be concluded that measurements on storage tanks can be done automatically with the help of the HC-SR04 proximity sensor, thermocouple sensor, flow meter sensor and Arduino UNO which are passed on to laptops and gadgets, where based on the results of the experiments carried out the percentage of accuracy is obtained each sensor starts from the proximity sensor with 99.98%, temperature sensor 99.47% and flow meter sensor 99.88%.

Abstract

Hoist Cylinder is an important component of the Dump Truck HD 1500-7 unit that serves as a support for the vessel during loading and unloading. Leakage due to the loss of dust seal that is unable to block the dirt and lubricating oil, is one of the reasons for the replacement of the hoist cylinder. The solution of the leak is to replace the hoist cylinder, but the difficulty of removing and install hoist cylinder process causes the lead time to become longer and the percentage of non-operating units (down time) increases. This is because of the drop of the rod hoist cylinder and the narrowing of the work of removing and installing. To lift and prevent the release of mechanical rod cylinders, it is necessary to tie the cylinder rod by using the belt. But the method is dangerous and ineffective because of repositioning belt due to difficult position. Therefore, tool is made to lift the rod cylinder so as not to extend, so it can speed up the process of removing and installing and reducing the percentage of non-operating units (down time), as well as providing benefits in terms of save cost of man power and lead time, and in terms of save cost loss production.

Abstract

A Pressure Wave Supercharger (PWS) is a technical way to increase the incoming pressure on a diesel engine. PWS utilizes hot cylinder exhaust gas energy to build in air pressure such as conventional turbo filling. In normal combustion the air and fuel mixture will burn perfectly if a stoichiometric mixture, gasoline fuel can be said to be stoichiometric if to burn 1 kg of fuel requires 14.7 kg of air. While the engine rotation is high, it requires a lot of fuel while the intake air is limited in number. Based on this description, an examination of air intake into the intake manifold is required with an Electric Supercharger which functions as an air compressor. Using the Otto engine with modifications to the piston, compression ratio, ignition timing, injection duration and E70% bioethanol fuel. With the installation of these tools, can get the characteristics of combustion and improve the problems that occur associated with a rich mixture so that the engine performance becomes optimal and exhaust emissions become minimal.

Abstract

Palm oil fibers are waste products from Palm Oil Mill which is in the form of debris, solid, length of 3-4 cm, contained in coconut fruit (mesocarp) meat. Fiber roof building is the result of utilization of palm fiber waste as a roof of a building that is used to reduce heat from sunlight or from heat sources, so it is not directly exposed to humans and the surrounding environment. Fiber roof building is made by arranging the fiber in the mold and arranged in accordance with the dimensions to be made. To bind between fibers, used resin that has been mixed with the catalyst material, so easy to dry quickly. The ratio between resin and fiber is 1: ¼. The result of conduction heat conduction test that has been done on the fiber test object can reduce the highest heat of 125 °C and the lowest is 109 °C from the given heat source of 200 °C. This shows that palm fiber can be used as a heat reducer for buildings.
