Produksi Biogas dari Limbah Peternakan Sapi dengan Konsorsium Mikroorganisme Lokal
Limbah peternakan sapi yang dikumpulkan dari peternak di sekitar Hutan Batukahu, Bali, Indonesia, telah diolah menjadi biogas. Kotoran sapi ini diproses menggunakan sistem digester anaerobik (AD) dengan konsorsium mikroorganisme isolat lokal untuk menghasilkan biogas. Konsorsium tersebut terdiri dari mikroorganisme pengurai limbah yang berasal dari kelompok ragi, metanogen, dan Bacillus. Rancangan penelitian menggunakan desain acak kelompok dengan dua faktor. Faktor pertama adalah konsentrasi konsorsium yang ditambahkan, yaitu 10%, 20%, dan 30%, sedangkan faktor kedua adalah perbandingan antara kotoran sapi dan air, yaitu 1:1 dan 1:2, dalam biodigester berkapasitas 250 liter. Variabel yang diamati mencakup volume biogas, pH, tekanan, dan aplikasi penggunaan biogas. Hasil penelitian selama 31 hari menunjukkan bahwa konsentrasi konsorsium tertinggi, yakni 20%, menghasilkan volume biogas sebesar 142.288,266 cm³, dengan suhu bioreaktor antara 30-32°C dan pH 7,1. Pengujian gas dilakukan dua kali, pertama pada hari ke-15 dan kedua pada hari ke-31. Waktu yang dibutuhkan untuk menggunakan biogas untuk memasak adalah 24 menit, dengan tingkat efektivitas sebesar 84,71% dibandingkan dengan LPG

PEMANFAATAN ARANG AKTIF BONGGOL JAGUNG (Zea mays) SEBAGAI ADSORBEN RADIKAL ALKIL PEROKSIDA PADA MINYAK JELANTAH : STUDI PENURUNAN BILANGAN PEROKSIDA
Used cooking oil is known to contain lipids resulting from the oxidation process at high heating temperatures. The oxidation process in cooking oil continuously causes the formation of alkyl peroxide radicals. Used cooking oil is at risk of disrupting water and soil ecosystems if disposed of into the environment without further management. In this study, a characterization test of corn cob activated charcoal was carried out based on SNI 06-3730-1995, characterization using the Surface Area Analyzer (SAA) instrument and a test of the peroxide number in used cooking oil. The results of the activated charcoal characterization test showed that it still met the requirements of SNI 06-3730-1995 and showed an increase in surface area of 109,705 m2/g in the SAA test. In the control before the adsorption process using corn cob activated charcoal, the peroxide number was 30 mek O2/kg. In the refining process of used cooking oil, there was a decrease in the peroxide number. The optimum decrease in the peroxide number was found at a charcoal mass of 4 g with a contact time of 45 minutes. The peroxide value obtained was 8 mek O2/kg, which was a decrease of around 73.33% from the used cooking oil before refining.

PENYERAPAN LOGAM Pb2+ SECARA BIOLOGIS OLEH BAKTERI Escherichia coli
The biological absorption of Pb2+ metal by Escherichia coli bacteria has been conducted. This study aims to determine the ability of Escherichia coli bacteria to absorb Pb2+ metal based on variations in Pb2+ exposure concentrations (0, 3, 6, 9, 12, 15 ppm) over different exposure times (days) and to identify the optimal concentration and time required for Escherichia coli in the biological absorption of Pb2+ metal. The maximum wavelength of the standard Pb2+ solution is 520 nm. Based on the test results, Escherichia coli was able to absorb Pb2+ at varying exposure concentrations (3, 6, 9, 12, 15 ppm) with biosorption percentages of 49.118%, 23.985%, 14.500%, 10.150%, and 7.808%, respectively. The optimal concentration and time required for Escherichia coli to absorb Pb2+ occurred on the 3rd day with a Pb2+ exposure concentration of 3 ppm.

ANALISA KADAR AMONIA DAN UJI LOGAM BERAT (Fe dan Mn) PADA AIR LIMBAH DOMESTIK
A study entitled Analysis of Ammonia Levels and Heavy Metals (Fe and Mn) in Domestic Wastewater has been conducted. This research aimed to determine the concentrations of ammonia and heavy metals (Fe and Mn) in domestic wastewater from the drainage channel on Jalan H. M. Ardans (AL 1) and the wastewater treatment plant of PT. LAB (AL 2). Ammonia levels were analyzed using the phenate spectrophotometric method, while heavy metal concentrations (Fe and Mn) were determined using the Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometry (AAS) method. Based on the analysis results, ammonia levels were found to be 0.45 mg/L in AL 1 and 0.08 mg/L in AL 2. The concentration of iron (Fe) was 3.17 mg/L in AL 1 and 0.50 mg/L in AL 2. The concentration of manganese (Mn) was 15.07 mg/L in AL 1 and 0.30 mg/L in AL 2. The ammonia levels in both AL 1 and AL 2 complied with the quality standard of 10 mg/L. The Fe concentrations in AL 1 and AL 2 also met the quality standard of 5 mg/L. The Mn level in AL 2 met the quality standard of 2 mg/L, whereas the Mn level in AL 1 exceeded the permissible limit.
