Abstract

The development of biodiesel which is derived from Crude Palm Oil (CPO) shows a risingtrend forpetroleum-based energy reserves are running low.Oil palm is the largestplantation commodity in Indonesia, so, it has high potential as raw material of biodiesel.Transesterification is a reaction of producingbiodiesel (methyl ester). Nevertheless, CPO is easy to be degraded byhydrolysis, so, it couldincrease the amount of Free Fatty Acid (FFA) content which hampers transesterification process. As a consequence, there is formation of soaps as side product. Tomaximize the production of biodiesel which is derived frompalm oil that contains of large amount of FFA (low grade CPO) one of the waysis by applying catalyst through doped-process. This research is held togive information about the effect of Li+ion concentration (inLiNO3 form) which is doped to calcium oxide (CaO) to palm oil transesterification with the large amount ofFFA to produce methyl ester, attemperature of 120oC,the ratio of methanol:CPO = 12:1 (mol/mol), catalyst amount 2,5% (w/w) CPO, for 3,5 hours and usespressured reactor. The variable of research is Liconcentration that isdoped to CaO with concentration: 0%, 1% and 4% (w/w) CaO. The parameter test is methyl ester content that is derived from the result of transesterification with GasChromatography (GC) analysis. The research shows that Li+ion that is doped to CaO catalyst could increase the reaction of methyl ester production which is derived from low grade CPO with FFA>3,5 %, in which the finest of Liconcentration that is doped to CaO is 1%, with result of 90,88% methyl ester.

Abstract

Synthesis of semiconductor photocatalysts lanthanum-doped sodium tantalum oxide (La-NaTaO3) and its performance on water-methanol decomposition has been carried out. This research aimed is to examine the effect of methanol as an electron donor in the reaction to photocatalytic of hydrogen production. The samples are characterized by x-ray diffractometer (XRD) to determine its composition. The results indicate that the products are composed of NaTaO3 and Ta2O5. The reaction is conducted by irradiating of water-methanol of 400 ml and 1 g of photocatalyst in Pyrex glass reactor for 4 h at a temperature of 30 oC.The methanol solution is poured into the reactor of 5, 10, and 15 vol.%. For comparison, in this reaction is also used only pure water. The results depict that the rate of photocatalytic hydrogen evolution from pure water as much as 0.3(mmol / g.h). Hydrogen generation rate increased significantly when the methanol are added of 5%, 10%, and 15%, ie. 2.68, 4.79 and 8.72 ,(mmol / g.h), respectively. This has been attributed to the effect of added methanol, which acts as sacrificial electron donor and consumes photogenerated holes and/or oxygen, thereby decreasing the rates of electron-hole recombination. Reaction mechanism in semiconductor particles of NaTaO3 is also reported.

Abstract

The depletion of oil reserves hasbeen increasing interest in the development of alternative renewable energysources. Cheese whey as a waste of cheese production is one of the raw materials that can be used for bioethanol production. The aim ofthis study is to conduct critical assessment of the cheese whey fermentation process by applying the basic concepts of engineering and mathematics, to investigate the characteristics of the cheese whey fermentation process into bioethanol, and to obtain the optimum design of fermenter. This is done by developing steady state model of cheese whey fermentation system into ethanol based on kinetic data from previous research and using mass balance principle.The model was then used to simulate the continuous fermentation of cheese whey for ethanol production. At steady state conditions, the fermentation process of cheese whey into bioethanol is affected by the hydraulic retention time (R). At steady state conditions, the optimum value of R obtained is 25 hours based onhigh ethanol productivity. The results of this study will be useful in the design process and control of cheese whey fermentation reactions into ethanol.The utilization of waste from cheese production (cheese whey) that contain sugars which can be fermented will provide added value to the waste while providing an alternative source of renewable energy that is needed due to energy crisis.

Abstract

Palm oil production in Indonesia is estimated around 28 million tonnes per annum. As this number increases, the waste generated from the process which generally called as palm oil mill effluent (POME) increases as well. In Indonesia, POME treatment is being carried out conventionally by using facultative ponds system, which is high in operational cost, uses up a vast amount of land and generates greenhouse gas, Methane (CH4) as product which is usually burnt away. From previous researches done, POME has been treated anaerobically to produce biogas, but the effluent from these processes have not yet met the standard quality control required to be released to the environment. Which is why it still needs to be treated aerobically to fulfill the standar quality control so as to be released to the environment. From the research done by using continuous stirred tank reaktor and adding effective microorganism (EM4), the final VSS value reached was around 100 mg/L with 10 days HRT.
