Abstract

The aim of this work is to synthesis of activated carbon from pyrolysis of coconut shell through 2 N potassium hydroxide (KOH). Carbon can be produced from material through heating at high temperatures with a porous solid containing 85%-95%. During the heating process, the carbon is only carbonized, and without oxidized in the heating chamber to avoid air leakage. Activated carbon can be used as an adsorbent. The absorption capacity of activated carbon is determined by the surface area of the particles. The absorption ability of activated carbon can be improved through an activation with chemicals such as KOH. Carbon will change in physical and chemical properties. This research used the pyrolysis process at an operating temperature of 550 °C. There were three stages of active carbon production by activating KOH, namely 1) immersion of coconut shell through 2 N KOH with a variable time of 5 days, 2) drying process of coconut shell in sunlight, 3) the burning process of dry coconut shell with the temperature of 500°C, and 4) the KOH activation process by reabsorbing activated carbon using KOH and drying in the sun. The results indicated that the water content of activated carbon was affected by drying time. The testing of the activated carbon water content shows that the quality of activated carbon meets Indonesian Standards (SNI, 1995), which is less than 15%. According to Indonesian Industrial Standard (SII) No.0258-79, the ash content of activated carbon is 2.5%, While the result in this study is exceeded 2.5%.

Abstract

The increasing consumption of electrical energy and still dependent on non-renewable energy has encouraged the implementation of effective, efficient, and environmentally friendly technologies to produce electrical energy. Microbial Fuel Cell (MFC) is one of the alternative technologies that utilize microorganisms in converting chemical energy from organic compounds under anaerobic conditions to be converted into electrical energy.  The study was conducted to determine the potential of electrical energy generated from the treatment of eceng gondok waste (Eichhornia crassipes) with variations in the addition of buffer solutions and combinations of electrolyte solutions using the microorganism Saccharomyces cerevisiae through Microbial Fuel Cell technology. This study consists of three stages and methods, namely sample preparation, MFC media preparation, and analysis of pH, current, voltage, and power density. Measurement of the value of the maximum voltage, maximum current and power density is carried out every 3 hours for 27 hours for each treatment. The results were obtained as follows consecutively: firstly, for variations without the addition of buffers and electrolyte solutions are 0.25 volts; 0.08 mA; 13.05 mW/m2, secondly, with buffer and electrolyte solution KMnO4 0.2 M are 1.12 volts; 0.77 mA; 562.92 mW/m2, and thirdly, with buffer and K3Fe(CN)6 0.2 M are 0.47 volts; 0.48 mA; 147.26 mW/m2. Based on the results of the study, it was concluded that the most optimal variation in producing electrical energy was in the variation in the addition of a phosphate buffer and  0.2 M KMnO4 solution.  Eceng gondok waste has the potential to be used as a source of electrical energy.

Abstract

A metabolic disorders that have experienced a significant increase in the world are diabetes mellitus. Diabetes is caused by two main factors: the first is damage to pancreatic beta cells, which prevents insulin from being produced, and the second is impaired insulin secretion and function. Chronic diabetes, if not treated properly, can lead to acute complications including eye, kidney, lung, nerve, and even death. Diabetes can be diagnosed through blood and urine. In general, glucose detection is carried out using invasive methods that use blood samples, which can cause pain and discomfort for users. Current research is developing non-invasive glucose detection using urine samples. This research aims to develop non-invasive glucose detection technology using 3D-connector μPADs (Microfluidic Paper Based Analytical Devices) which have the advantages of being safe, easy, and simple. The three-dimensional connector on the device functions as a connector to facilitate the coordination of fluid flow in the sample zone and detection zone. The glucose detection method uses gold (III) chloride as a gold nanoparticle (AuNPs) precursor, an aqueous extract of Acalypha indica Linn as a stabilizing agent, sodium hydroxide (NaOH) as a catalyst, and glucose in artificial urine as a sample. Method validation results using imageJ software indicated linearity with a coefficient of determination value (R2) of 0.9714, precision with a %RSD value (Relative Standard Deviation) of 2.69, and an accuracy level ranging from 92.22-99.23%.

Abstract

Elektrokoagulasi pada prinsipnya berdasarkan pada proses sel elektrolisis. Penelitian ini dilakukan untuk mengetahui dan mempelajari penurunan kadar ion-ion logam (Cr3+, Cu2+, dan Pb2+) sebelum dan sesudah elektrokoagulasi, serta untuk mengetahui dan mempelajari penurunan kadar ion-ion logam (Cr3+, Cu2+,dan Pb2+) terhadap variasi waktu pada setiap jenis elektroda aluminium dan karbon. Metode pada penelitian  ini, 100 mL limbah logam buatan ditambah 10 mL larutan NaCl 1% dielektrokoagulasi dengan menggunakan dua jenis elektroda aluminium dan karbon dengan jarak antar elektroda 3 cm dan dialiri arus listrik searah (DC) sebesar 2 ampere, setiap penggunaan jenis elektroda menggunakan variasi waktu 0, 15, 45, 60, 90 menit. Larutan dari setiap waktu disaring dan dianalisis kadar logamnya menggunakan instrumen Spektrofotometer Serapan Atom (SSA). Penurunan kadar dari ketiga ion logam yang sangat baik, yaitu pada penggunaan elektroda aluminium dengan penurunan ion logam Cr3+ 99,85%; Cu2+ 98,76%; dan Pb2+ 99,85% pada waktu 90 menit. Hal tersebut disebabkan tereduksinya sebagian besar ion-ion logam membentuk logamnya, serta terbentuknya Al(OH)3 yang bereaksi lebih lanjut membentuk ion Al(OH)4- yang akan mengikat sebagian kecil ion-ion logam (Cr3+, Cu2+, dan Pb2+). Penurunan kadar ion-ion logam (Cr3+, Cu2+, dan Pb2+) pada penggunaan elektroda karbon, selain tereduksinya sebagian besar ion-ion logam membentuk logamnya, terbentuk pula ion OH- di anoda yang akan bereaksi dengan ion-ion logam membentuk hidroksi logamnya. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pada elektroda aluminium dan karbon semakin lama waktu saat elektrokoagulasi semakin banyak pula penurunan ion-ion logam. Hal tersebut terbukti pada interval waktu 30 menit (15-45 menit dan 60-90 menit), mengalami penurunan hampir dua kali lipat dari interval waktu 15 menit (0-15 menit dan 45-60 menit).

Abstract

Acalypha indica is an abundant and obtainable wild weed plant in Indonesia. This is a possible opportunity to enhance its utility. The effect of free radicals is one of the factors that contribute to oxidative stress in the body, which can lead to cell damage and trigger various diseases. Plants rich in antioxidants can inhibit free radical reactions and protect the body from oxidative stress. In this study, we conducted the identification of major metabolite compounds using UHPLC-Q-Orbitrap HRMS from 70% ethanol extracts of Acalypha indica. We also performed phytochemical and antioxidant activity tests with various concentrations of ethanol-water solvents including water, 30%, 50%, 70% ethanol, and absolute ethanol to determine the optimal extraction conditions and the influence of solvent concentration on the antioxidant activity of Acalypha indica extract. The results of UHPLC-Q-Orbitrap HRMS identification showed that the 70% ethanol extract of Acalypha indica contains 10 major compounds suspected to correlate with its antioxidant activity. These include five flavonoids compounds (palasitrin, vitexin 2"-o-p-coumarate, isorhamnetin 3- (3",6"-di-p-coumarylglucoside), peucenin, and sulfuretin), two amino acid compounds (2-amino-3-carboxymuconic acid semialdehyde and N-Acetyl-L-phenylalanine), two carboxylic acid compound (citric acid and traumatic acid), and one phenolic compound (quinic acid). Phytochemical tests show positive results for flavonoids, tannins, alkaloids, and triterpenoids in each of water, 30%, 50%, 70% ethanol, and absolute ethanol extracts. The best antioxidant activity was obtained from the 70% ethanol extract with an IC50 value of 47.064 ppm, categorizing it as an extremely strong antioxidant.

Abstract

Sappana (Caesalpinnia sappan L.) has been known as a natural dye in textiles and food. This research aimed to develop a sappan-based natural dye for fabrics dyeing by SiO2 modification as the UV protection agent. The sappan dye and its color were measured by colorimetric methods on UV-Vis spectrophotometry. The testing of the material includes a standard color detection test on the solution and washing resistance on cotton fabrics. The product is the prototype of a stable natural dye product of SiO2 modified - sappan (Si-Cs) which will be performed consistently on cotton fabrics. The result showed that SiO2-modified sappan dye had a higher absorbance in UV-Vis Spectrometer. The performance of the coloring product was also better than the standard sappan dye, indicated by the higher Ultraviolet Protection Factor and the fastness value. Variations of coloring products affected by the mordant agents varied from orange-red-purple caused by non-mordant–alum acetate and iron mordant respectively.
