Abstract

The techno economic modeling of dried black potato (Plectranthus rotundifolius) was studied by employing electrical cabinet oven. The parameters investigated were including parameter obtained from analysis of capital budgeting, breakeven point and financial ratio of rentability. The obtained payback period was 2 years 11 months by investing 53.000.000 rupiah for machinery and 10.000.000 rupiah for start-up cost as initial capital. By assuming 10 years of dried black potato production, the value of net present value was equal to 1.207.982.611 rupiah. The value of gross profit margin and net profit margin were 0.97 and 0.87, respectively. Regarding to the positive value of net present value, the lower payback period value, and the high value of internal rate of return (74.47%) and also the profitability index (20.17), the modeling of techno economic was positively recommending the commercial application of dried black potato by using electrical cabinet oven.

Abstract

Flour is a useful agricultural product for various foodstuffs, one type of flour obtained in Indonesia is wheat flour. The need for this flour makes the import number of Indonesia increase, whereas many other plants have great potential to be used as raw material for making flour, such as tubers, taro, corn, and others. However, the content of amino acids and sugar as an energy source in corn is still relatively low. So we need a breakthrough to improve it and can affect the quality of the final product. This experiment focused on the combination of the lactic acid hydrolysis process in addition to UV light on maize starch so that the modified product is expected to have properties that almost the same with flour. There is a variety of changing variables which is the concentration of lactic acid. The number of the concentration that we use for this research is 0.5% (w/v); 1% (w/v); 1.5% (w/v); and 2% (w/v). The score of water content that we get is decreasing. It happened because the lactic acid can weaken hydrogen bonds which causes starch molecular weight to be lower, the structure becomes tenuous and soft, so that more water is evaporated during the oven drying process. Besides, the length of the hydrolysis process also affects the water content of the flour produced, which is soaking time inversely proportional to the water content produced. This happens because the longer the reaction with lactic acid causes the hydrogen bonds in starch to be weak so that the bonds between water molecules with various other components in the material more easily broken. From the analysis, the best point of the water content and baking expansion is consequently 18.780% and 40%. From 4 concentrations used (0.5%; 1%; 1.5%; and 2%), the lowest concentrations gave the best result, because it got the highest score in the baking expansion. This research result shows that modified starch has a better characteristic than natural starch. The factor that determined the good flour is the rheology characteristic which is the baking expansion.

Abstract

Solid-liquid extraction or commonly called leaching is the removal of the solute fraction (solute) from a solid to a liquid solvent. This extraction has become a widespread oil extraction process due to the high percentage of oil produced. Soxhletation method is an extraction method that contacts a solid and a liquid by dissolving it in the liquid phase at reflux. Clove oil is an essential oil that can be produced from distillation method on parts of the clove plant, especially the leaves and flowers of cloves. All parts of the clove plant contain oil, but the flowers contain the most oil. Because the leaves and twigs of cloves also produce oil, they also become a side income for clove farmers who harvest clove flowers for cigarettes. One of the most important ingredients in clove oil is eugenol, eugenol has many benefits from antiseptic to stimulant. Isopropyl alcohol is a unwell-known solvent specially to essential oil solvent, isopropyl alcohol is a solvent that can be recovered back into a solvent form usually using distillation method. The selection of isopropyl alcohol as a solvent is based on its high boiling point compared to other solvents and has elements of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen that can dissolve polar molecules and their alkyl groups.

Abstract- A water pump shaft for utility water raw material was failed. The shaft was broken into two parts. While in dismantling, the sand was found in chamber between bearing and shaft. There was also a bolt in the impeller. According to reports, the pump has been repaired and since there was no replacement shaft but the shaft was reused in reverse position. There was no inspection of the shaft when it was disconnected by operational reasons. The failure analysis of the broken-shaft was performed to investigate the cause of the failure. Two inspection and analysis were perfomed those are visual inspection and material identification and analysis. When material analysis of the shaft was carried out there was difference between examination and data specification of the shaft.The material identification indicate that the material was AISI SS 304 whereas specification data states SS 316. Both materials have similar tensile stress, so the difference was not the contributor of the failure. The present of foreign material was consider as the cause of the failure. The foreign material caused to stucked on rotation of shaft and increasing in tensile of the shaft over its ultimate strength. Keywords – vertical pump, tensile stress, ultimate strength, material identification
