Abstract

The aim of the research is to study the ability of isopropyl alcohol in the desorption of β-carotene and to obtain kinetic model and desorption isoterm which is suitable in β-carotene desorption. The main material used were isopropyl alcohol and activated carbon containing β-carotene. The variabels used in this research are desorption temperature, activated carbon concentration and parameter observed is concentration of β-carotene in isopropyl alcohol. In the desorption process, activated carbon which adsorp β-carotene was soaked in isopropyl alcohol.

Abstract

Biodiesel is an alternative fuel for diesel engines which is produced from either vegetable oils or animal fats. Treated Waste Cooking Oil (TWCO) was the pretreated WCO using activated carbon to reduce the high content of free fatty acid (FFA). The objective of this study was to discover the potential of catalyst which was the mixture of natural zeolite and CaO derived from the chicken eggshells in producing biodiesel with TWCO as feedstock. Chicken eggshells were calcined at the temperature of 1000 oC for 2 hours. Effect of using the catalyst, natural zeolite and CaO, was investigated in this study. The properties of biodiesel such as methyl ester content, density, kinematic viscosity and flash point were evaluated and compared to the Indonesian Standard (SNI). In this study, the biodiesel yield for catalyst of natural zeolite, CaO, and mixture of both were 7,28%; 51,17%; and 87,40% respectively. The biodiesel produced in this study was comparable to the SNI standard and that the addition of natural zeolite could enhance the catalytic activity. Therefore, it is highly potential as low-cost catalyst in producing biodiesel.

Abstract

Bioethanol was an alcohol substance which can be obtained by biomass fermentation process. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of agitation and volume of starter on yield and concentration of bioethanol produced from palm juice (Arenga pinnata Merr). Catalyst used was Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Observed variables were agitation and volume of starter in anaerobic fermentation. The experiment started with preparation of a starter followed by fermentation process. The product obtained from distillation process at temperature of 88 °C. The results showed that the higher agitation speed and volume of starter, yield and concentration of bioethanol will be higher. The highest concentration and yield obtained on the condition at a agitation of 100 rpm and 35% starter amounted to 47.618% (v/v) and 48.1411%. If it exceed that point, the changes of agitation and the addition of starter did not increase the concentration and yield of ethanol produced.

Abstract

Glycerin residue is waste oleochemical industry that still contain glycerin. To produce quality and maximum quantity of glycerin, then research the effect of pH acidification using phosphoric acid. Glycerin analysis includes the analysis of pH, Fatty Acid and Ester (FAE), and analysis of the levels of glycerin. The maximum yield obtained at pH acidification 2 is grading 91,60% glycerin and Fatty Acid and Ester (FAE) 3,63 meq/100 g. Glycerin obtained is used as a plasticizer in the manufacture of bioplastics. Manufacture of bioplastics using the method of pouring a solution with varying concentrations of starch banana weevil (5% w/v and 7% w/v), variations of the addition of glycerin (1 ml, 3 ml, 5 ml and 7 ml), and a variety of gelatinization temperature (60°C, 70°C, and 80°C). Analysis of bioplastics include FTIR testing, tensile strength that is supported by SEM analysis. The results obtained in the analysis of FTIR does not form a new cluster on bioplastics starch banana weevil, but only a shift in the recharge area only, it is due to the addition of O-H groups originating from water molecules that enter the polysaccharide through a mechanism gelatinitation that generates interaction hydrogen bonding strengthened. The maximum tensile strength of bioplastics produced at a concentration of starch 7% w/v, 1 ml glycerine and gelatinization temperature of 80°C is 3,430 MPa. While the tensile strength bioplastic decreased with increasing glycerin which can be shown from the results of SEM where there is a crack, indentations and lumps of starch insoluble.

Abstract

Liquid waste from palm oil mill continues to grow concurrently with the increased production of palm oil in Indonesia. Technical processing of palm oil mill effluent using anaerobic ponds are less efficient because it requires large area besides palm oil mill effluent produce greenhouse gases caused by carbon dioxide gases that are generated. Therefore we need another alternative technology such as electrocoagulation as advanced technology in processing wastewater effluent from an anaerobic column. Electrocoagulation is a wastewater treatment system that is capable of eliminating pollutants and produce hydrogen gas simultaneously as revenue to offset operating costs. This study aims to determine the effect and the best inter electrode distance to reduce pollutant parameters such as chemical oxygen demand, total solids and total suspended solids. The type of electrode material used is aluminum, the reactor dimensions 12 cm x 12 cm x 36 cm with 3 hours of operating time, voltage 10 volts, variations of inter electrode distance 0.5 cm; 1.0 cm; 1.5 cm and 2.0 cm. Samples were taken from palm oil mill PT. PP London Sumatra in Bagerpang, Tanjung Morawa. The results obtained by the percentage reduction in COD, TSS TS and the highest was 72.897% at 1.0 cm; 67.292% at 1.5 cm and 96.429% at 1.5 cm. Best distance between the electrodes was 1.5 cm.

Abstract

Research about the application of modified bentonite as filler in epoxy has been done for the purpose of getting the best composition of modified bentonite as filler at epoxy composite to obtain the best mechanical properties such as tensile strength, impact strength and the water absorption. In this research, epoxy resin mixed with bentonite which have been modified using cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) surfactant with various concentrations of 0,05M, 0,1M, and 0,15M. Modified bentonite filler and TiO2 then mixed with epoxy resin with various concentration of 5%, 10%, 15%, and 20% of filler from the total mass of the composite and then the composite was produced with hand lay-up method. The result of FTIR characterization showed that the bond between matrix and the filler produced was only interfacial bonding. The result of the mechanical properties test indicated that 5% of filler composition with 0,1M of surfactant concentration obtained the maximum value of tensile strength and mechanical strength respectively 33,667 MPa and 12564,9 J/m2. The result of mechanical properties test was supported by analysis of Scaning Electron Microscopy (SEM). On the test of water absorption, the water absorption capacity increased along with the increased of filler composition.

Abstract

Leaching process is one of many factors to raise up the mechanical properties of latex products. Studies on the effect of leaching on film natural rubber latex with the filler microcrystalline cellulose from bagasse with alkanolamide using different temperatures and times vulcanization has been done to produce the better mechanical properties such as strenght tensile and elongation at break. Filming of natural rubber latex is done by coagulants dyeing techniques. The study started with the process of pre-vulcanised natural rubber latex at 70 °C with a loading filler by 0 phr, 5 phr, 10 phr and 15 phr and followed by a vulcanization process at a temperature of 100 °C and 150 °C for 10 minutes and 20 minutes. The film result will be have leaching treatment using a solution of water and ammonia 1%. Test results of tensile strength of natural rubber latex film howed that the tensile strength of natural rubber latex film with microcrystalline cellulose as filler and alkanolamides after leaching less than the tensile strength of natural rubber lateks film before leaching
