Abstract

Biodiesel is a promising alternative energy source in the future. The method of making biodiesel is the reaction of fatty acid esterification with methanol assisted by a catalyst. The catalyst that is widely developed in the process of making biodiesel is solid acid catalyst. Especially those based on sulfonated carbon. The purpose of this article is to explain the function and role of sulfonated carbon-based solid acid catalyst in the biodiesel production process. Solid acid catalyst is synthesized by sulfonation process of calcined carbon using sulfuric acid or chlorosulphonic acid. The advantage of using a solid acid catalyst is that the catalyst can be regenerated so that it can be used in several cycles. The use of solid acid catalysts can produce biodiesel with a fairly high conversion percentage. Keywords— biodiesel, solid acid catalyst, sulfonation, sulfuric acid, chlorosulfonic acid

Abstract

Silica is a useful material in adsorption, electronics, mechanical, medical, art to other fields. In this study, Sodium silicate is used which can be used as a more economical precursor of silica as which is produced from natural silica. Silica was synthesized using the sol-gel method. This study aims to determine the effect of adding CTAB mass and  aging time in synthesizing silica. The synthesized silica was tested for iodine absorption value and characterized using FTIR. Based on the iodine absorption of variations in adding mass CTAB (0,1, 0,15, 0,2, 0,25, and 0,3 gram) and aging time (8, 12, 16, 20 and 24 hours) give the most absorption to optimum conditions of adding mass CTAB at 0,2 gram and aging time at 16 hours. The results of measurements with FTIR showed the presence of absorption bands which indicated the loss of CTAB in the synthesized silica.

Abstract

Plastic is a polymer that we use a lot in everyday life, but it has a bad impact on the environment because it is difficult to degrade in nature. Therefore, a study was carried out to make plastic that is more environmentally friendly, namelyplastic Biodegradable that utilizes bacterial cellulose from Acetobacter xylinum with old coconut water as a medium with the addition of a plasticizer in the form of Polyethylene Glycol (PEG) and the addition of gum arabic additives with variations in the mass of gum arabic, namely 0g , 1g, 3g, 5g and 7g. The bacterial cellulose plastic PEG gum arabic produced was characterized includingwater content, degree ofswelling,testtensile strength, elongation, elasticity, ability biodegradation, functional group analysis (FTIR) and crystallinity test (XRD). The results of testing the water content and degree of swelling on PEG gum arabic bacterial cellulose plastic, obtained plastic with the more mass of gum arabic added, the greater the percentage of water content and degree of swelling. The results of mechanical testing showed an increase in the value of tensile strength and elasticity along with the amount of gum arabic added but the elongation value decreased. In the biodegradation test, it was found that the more gum arabic which was added, the biodegradation ability increased. The analysis of the plastic functional groups showed that there were no new groups formed. Crystallinity analysis showed that the addition of gum arabic can reduce the percentage of crystallinity.

Abstract

adsorption is a method of waste treatment that has the potential to remove toxic heavy metals. One of the factors that influence the occurrence of the adsorption process is the presence of a biological material called a biosorbent. The adsorption method is a method of absorbing heavy metal contamination in liquid waste that is very efficient and effective, as well as easy and cheap economically because of the use of biomaterials that are very cheap and can be regenerated. Chicken egg shell contains Calcium Carbonate (CaCO3) of 98.41% and has natural pores of 10,000 to 20,000 so it is estimated that it can absorb solutes. Based on the known mineral composition, chicken egg shells are composed of CaCO3 (98.41%), Ca3(PO4)2 (0.75%), and MgCO3 (0.84%). So it can be seen that chicken egg shells have a high calcium carbonate content, where calcium carbonate is a polar adsorbent. The optimum conditions for each variable in contacting broiler egg shells that have been activated with Cu2+ metal ions are optimum at pH 4, concentration of 250 ppm.

Abstract

Silica gel is one type of dry silica gel which is widely used as an adsorbent. Silica has the ability to absorb because it has two active site groups that can be activated, namely a silanol group and a siloxane group. This modification was carried out to increase the ability of silica to absorb ions, one of which was phosphate anion. In waters, very high levels of phosphate anion can disrupt the marine biota ecosystem because it can cause uetrophication or decreased oxygen levels that enter the waters. The modifier compound used is dimethylamine (DMA). Silica and dimethylamine can bind to several linking compounds, namely glycidopropyltrimethoxylan (gptms). The modified silica was characterized by FTIR and the absorption results were analyzed using a UV-Vis spectrophotometer. The results of the comparison of the absorption capacity of phosphate anions after modification are greater than before modification, where the absorption capacity of silica before modification is 1,2601 mg/g with an absorption percentage of 54,46% and silica after modification is 1.9686 mg/g with an absorption percentage of 1,9686 mg/g. 85,08%.Keywords — Silica gel, Modification, Dimetilamine, Phosphate Anion

Abstract

Carbon material is one example of the development of advanced materials. Carbon is the result of the decomposition of an organic compound through an incomplete carbonization process. Carbon can be utilized from organic waste materials such as areca fiber. The composition of areca nut is 32.98% hemicellulose, 7.20% lignin, 53.20% cellulose, and 4.81% other components remaining in areca nut. Cellulose in betel nut can be used as a source of advanced materials. The method used for the manufacture of areca fiber carbon is calcination at a temperature variation of 250oC, 300oC and 350oC. Proximate analysis of carbon was carried out by testing the ash content, vapor content and bound carbon content. In this research, the standard used is SNI 06-3730-1995. The results of the analysis show that the ash content increases with the increase in the calcination temperature, while the vapor content decreases with the increase in the calcination temperature. The carbon content obtained decreases with increasing calcination temperature. The optimum condition of areca fiber carbon that is close to SNI 06-3730-1995 is obtained on carbon with a calcination temperature of 250oC, with an ash content of 8.85%, a vapor content of 3.12% and a bound carbon content of 88.03%.
