Abstract

The study focuses on the development of a current measuring device that incorporates the ACS712 current sensor, enhances the reading sensitivity of the ACS712 current sensor from 27mA/bit to 5mA/bit through the implementation of an AD620 differential amplifier, and employs a Kalman filter for improved accuracy. This increase in current uses a differential amplifier AD620. An increase in the sensitivity of the reading is carried out by utilizing the initial value of the ACS712 sensor when it has not been connected to the circuit or an offset of 512 to 0 so that 10bit ADC data can be utilized to measure 4880 mV/A so that the accuracy of reading 1-bit data is equal to 4, 8 mV/mA after being given a gain of 26.5 times. The signal enhanced from the AD620 will be filtered using the Kalman filter program so that the signal generated after the increase will be stable, and the current value that has been read will be displayed on the LCD screen. Based on the analysis results, the ACS712 current sensor can effectively measure up to 5mA/bit stably using the AD620 differential amplifier and Kalman filter.

Abstract

This study investigates the influence of Fe3O4 addition on cellulose nanofiber aerogels' density and porosity characteristics. The cellulose nanofiber aerogels were synthesized with varying concentrations of Fe3O4: 0%, 0.25%, 0.5%, 0.75%, and 1%. The characterization of the cellulose nanofiber aerogels included physical tests to determine density and porosity and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) analysis for functional group analysis. The results reveal a progressive increase in density from the lowest to the highest Fe3O4 concentrations: 0.115 g/cm3, 0.135 g/cm3, 0.162 g/cm3, 0.163 g/cm3, and 0.241 g/cm3 for Fe3O4 concentrations of 0%, 0.25%, 0.5%, 0.75%, and 1%, respectively. Similarly, the porosity of the cellulose nanofiber aerogels exhibited a trend of decreasing values from the lowest to the highest Fe3O4 concentrations: 90.808%, 89.499%, 88.064%, 87.764%, and 82.844% for Fe3O4 concentrations of 0%, 0.25%, 0.5%, 0.75%, and 1%, respectively. Furthermore, FTIR analysis indicated that the structural integrity of the cellulose aerogels remained unchanged even after the incorporation of Fe3O4. While no new functional groups emerged, a discernible shift in wave numbers suggests the formation of bonds between the polymer network and Fe3O4. In conclusion, adding Fe3O4 to cellulose nanofiber aerogels led to notable alterations in density and porosity, while FTIR analysis confirmed the establishment of bonds between the polymer network and Fe3O4 without causing significant structural changes.

Abstract

This study aims to determine the effect of adding snake-fruit (Salacca zalacca) seeds and sawdust on polymer concrete's physical and mechanical properties. The results showed that the highest physical properties were 1.27 g/cm3 density, 12.5% ​​porosity, and 13.22% water absorption. The lowest physical properties are a density of 0.85 g/cm3, porosity of 2.65%, and water absorption of 2.07%. The highest mechanical properties are compressive strength of 16.70 Mpa, tensile strength of 4.39 Mpa, and flexural strength of 7.93 Mpa. The lowest mechanical properties are compressive strength of 6.80 Mpa, tensile strength of 1.11 Mpa, and flexural strength of 1.50 Mpa. SEM test results showed that the microstructure of polymer concrete showed differences between concrete samples A1 (consisting of 35 g of snake-fruit seeds, 15 g of sawdust, and 15 g of polyester resin) and polymer concrete samples B1 (consisting of 30 g of snake-fruit seeds, 15 g of sawdust, and 20 g of polyester resin). The SEM analysis of the A1 concrete sample reveals a dark surface color and conspicuous white lumps, which are attributed to polyester resin and arise from inadequate mixing of ingredients. In the case of sample B1, a higher concentration of visible resin lumps is observed.

Abstract

This study aimed to synthesize materials from the carbon biomass of sunflower seed husk (Helianthus Annuus) for sodium ion battery anode. A simple carbonization process was carried out by roasting. The chemical activation process was conducted by adding KOH as much as 4M in 100 mL water solution for 20 hours. Then drying was done in the oven at a temperature of 100ºC for 20 hours, and then continued with the sintering process at a temperature of 900ºC for 2 hours. The sintered results were washed and hydrothermal for 20 hours at 200ºC with 4 mL H2O2 and 1 mL EG in 50 mL Teflon. The resulting acid degree was neutralized (pH ~ 7) with distilled water and then dried at 100ºC for 20 hours. The hydrothermal powder was pulverized using a mortar and pestle and then sieved on a 325 mesh sieve. Anode sheets were prepared by mixing active ingredients: PVDF: Super-P with a composition of 85: 10: 5 by adding 2 ml of DMAC solvent. Electrochemical characterization testing was carried out to see the resulting performance—the results obtained from EIS, CV, and CD show that commercial hard carbon is better.

Abstract

Edible films present an eco-friendly alternative for food packaging compared to traditional plastic materials. This study investigates the effects of glycerol and sorbitol plasticizers on the properties of edible films. The research involves crafting these films using porang (Amorphophallus Oncophyllus) starch. Glycerol plasticizers were incorporated at a concentration of 100%, while sorbitol was utilized at varying levels (0%, 25%, 50%, 75%, 100%) to evaluate their impact on film characteristics. The films were produced using the melt intercalation method at a gelatinization temperature of 80°C and a firing temperature of 70°C. Notably, the most favorable physical test outcomes were observed with adding 100% sorbitol, including thickness, density, water absorption, and degradability improvements. Meanwhile, adding 25% sorbitol yielded the highest tensile strength and elongation values.

Abstract

Many studies have carried out calculations related to atmospheric lability as a reference in weather forecasts, especially cumulonimbus clouds, and thunderstorms. However, many air lability index values are found to be inappropriate in each region because conditions in each region are different from each other in the region. So it is necessary to use precise index thresholds to determine weather conditions. In the study, observational data and data from Showalter Index (SI), Lifted Index (LI), K Index (KI), Severe Weather Threat Index (SWEAT), and Convective data were used. Available Potential Energy (CAPE) for ten years (2013-2022), then statistical calculations and verification for one year (2022) are carried out. The results obtained are the atmospheric stability index with the best accuracy in predicting the presence of cumulonimbus clouds and thunderstorms at the Kualanamu Meteorological Station, Deli Serdang is the best LI index to predict TS 00 and TS 12, and the best KI index to predict CB 00 and CB 12.

Abstract

Sensing materials are crucial in a wide range of fields, including environmental monitoring, healthcare, security, and industrial applications. By leveraging their specific properties, sensing materials enable the development of innovative sensing devices and systems for improved detection, monitoring, and control of various parameters in our environment. This study aimed to prepare the chitosan/reduced graphene oxide film as sensing materials using a simple casting method. The reduced graphene oxide (rGO) was mixed with chitosan (CS), consisting of a concentration ratio of 200, 250, 300, 350, and 400 ppm. Three characterizations were used to describe the formed CS/rGO films, namely, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and cyclic voltammetry (CV). FTIR and XRD analysis results were successfully performed, which showed that the process of loading of rGO and the film fabrication occurred in the physical interaction. The CV test also showed that the CS/rGO modified electrode has high sensitivity in PBH pH 7 and can be applied as a sensing material.

Abstract

This research investigates the synthesis and characterization of Pahae natural zeolite-chicken eggshell adsorber to refine used cooking oil. The primary objective is to develop effective adsorbents for enhancing the quality of used cooking oil through refining. The methodology involves sieving the zeolite through a 74 µm sieve, chemically activating it using a 10% KOH solution for 1 hour and drying it at 100°C. The eggshells are also sieved through a 74 µm sieve, followed by washing and drying at 105°C for 12 hours. Various combinations of natural zeolite and chicken eggshell compositions (100% : 0%, 0%: 100%, 95%: 5%, 90%: 10%, 85%: 15%, 80%: 20%) are then prepared and pressed using a hydraulic press under a load mass of 6 tons for 10 minutes. The resultant samples are further activated by heat treatment at 600°C for 2 hours. The adsorbents undergo a comprehensive characterization process, encompassing physical properties (porosity and water absorption), mechanical properties (hardness), surface morphology (SEM), elemental composition (XRF), X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, and practical applications assessment (density, viscosity, moisture content, color, and odor). The optimal adsorbent configuration is identified as 80% natural zeolite and 20% chicken eggshell composition, activated at 600°C, exhibiting a porosity of 81.54% and an oil absorption of 46.86%. The highest hardness value of 119.64 MPa is achieved with 100% natural zeolite composition at 600°C. SEM analysis indicates an average pore diameter of 1.232 µm, while XRF results highlight calcium (Ca) as the predominant element at 49.64%. XRD analysis confirms the formation of a rhombohedral crystal structure.
