Land Revegetation Post Clay Mine PT Semen Baturaja (Persero) Tbk in OKU Selatan District "Challenges for Environmental Sustainability"
Get PDFClay as a non-renewable natural resource causes the number of reserves to be a limiting factor for mine age. The post-mining plan is prepared as an effort to restore the physical and environmental conditions that are disturbed by mining. Data collection was carried out with location surveys, literature studies, and institutional coordination. Mine reserves are known to be 36 million tons with a thickness of up to 25 m. The clay chemical composition consisted of SiO2 12.77% -92.49%, Al2O3 2.95% -27.64% and Fe2O3 0.53% -29.46%. The environment disturbed by post-mining will be managed with 39.5 ha of plantation designation, 13.5 ha of forestry and 1.7 ha of water treatment. Natural vegetation consists of secondary forests, shrubs, resident gardens. The diversity index value of the bush species of 2.940 is dominated by 15 plant species. Distribution of evenly distributed plants such as medang, aro wood, krinjing. Vegetation of cultivated plants is dominated by 10 types of plants such as coffee, pepper, rubber. Revegetation stage in the form of cover crop sowing, nurseries and the development of fast-growing plants. Post-mining revegetation uses plants that have suitable soil conditions so that environmental improvements and environmental sustainability of clay mines are achieved.
Purification of Crude Glycerol from Biodiesel By-product by Adsorption using Bentonite
Get PDFThe production of glycerol from biodiesel by-product that was obtained from waste cooking oil has low purity. This crude glycerol contains impurities such as methanol, catalyst, soap and water. Analysis result shows that crude glycerol contains 67.7% water, 16.7% ash with density 1.1217 g/mL. The impurities were able to be adsorbed using bentonite which was activated in sulphuric acids 1.5 M and characterized by SEM-EDX. The purified glycerol after being treated with bentonite at 60 C for 75 minutes was fulfilled The SNI 06-1564-1995 requirement i.e. 89.5% glycerol, 4.3% water, 3.6% ash and density 1.2212 g/mL. From the experiment can be concluded the activated bentonite showed a capacity in adsorbing and removing impurities in waste cooking oil

Color And COD Degradation of Procion Red Synthetic Dye by Using Fenton-TiO2 Method
Get PDFNowadays, environmental pollution caused by industrial wastewater is quite apprehensive. Most of textile industries used synthetic dyes. Procion red is one of the synthetic dyes that often used in textile industries and classified as a reactive dye that is difficult to decompose in nature and contain harmful toxins. One of the colored wastewater treatment process is by using Fenton reagent and TiO2 catalyst (Fenton-TiO2) as one of Advanced Oxidation Processes (AOPs). The objective of this research is to treat of procion red synthetic dye by using Fenton-TiO2 method and study the effect of procion red concentration, reaction time and the concentrations of TiO2 catalyst on color and COD degradation. In this experiment, the concentrations of procion red were varied between 150-300 ppm, the concentrations of TiO2 catalyst were varied from 0.05 to 0.4% (w/v) and the reaction time of 5 to 20 minutes. The optimum condition was achieved by using procion red concentration of 150 ppm with TiO2 catalyst concentration of 0.4% and reaction time of 20 minutes, which the maximum color and COD degradation of 98.67% and 92% were achieved respectively. This condition was applied to the real wastewater of textile home industry in Palembang. The color and COD degradation of 59% and 44% were found respectively after 220 minutes of reaction

Utilization of Modified White Corn Starch in Producing Marshmallow Cream
Get PDFThe purpose of this study was to determine the effect of the white maize starch by oxidation and acetylation-oxidation modification on gel formation and character of the resulting gel, and applying a modified white corn starch in manufacturing of marshmallow cream. White corn varieties Srikandi, Pulut and Canggal are used as raw materials to produce starch. Starch modification is conducted by oxidation and acetylation-oxidation. Quality analysis of the modified starch is freeze thaw stability, smallest gel formation concentration and gel strength. Corn starch, both native and modified applied in manufacturing of marshmallow cream. The results showed that the treated starch acetylation-oxidation provide the best freeze thaw stability with the least water released than native starch and modified starch oxidation. Starch modified by oxidation tend to have the highest Least Gelling Concentration (LGC). Gel produced from modified starch both oxidation and acetylation-oxidation has a gel strength greater than the native starch. Marshmallow cream that uses a modified starch by acetylation-oxidation, have the best received power in testing organoleptic by the panelists. Use of modified starch does not give a noticeable difference in color of the product, but it gives texture and the best spread power compared to products using original starch

Utilization of Electrolyte Solution in Nanotube Formation on Ti-6Al-4V Metal Alloy
Get PDFFormation of nanotube morphology on the surface of Ti-6Al-4V metal did not occur homogeneously, so when it was coated with hydroxyapatite, it did not merge well. One of the factor that affected the inhomogeneously formed nanotube was the utilization of electrolyte solution. The research has been done to observe the effect of electrolyte solution in the formation of nanotube morphology on the surface of Ti-6Al-4V metal alloy. Electrolyte solution that was used was ethylene glycol, HF, and NH4F with time variation of an hour, 2 hour, and 3 hour. Formation of nanotube morphology on the surface of Ti-6Al-4V metal alloy was done using anodization process. The result showed that in HF electrolyte solution which was anodized for an hour ɑ and β phase that composed Ti-6Al-4V metal alloy was formed, meanwhile when using electrolyte solution of ethylene glycol + NH4F for 2 hours showed that there were pores that opened on Ti-6Al-4V metal alloy surface. Nanotube morphology on the surface of Ti-6Al-4V metal alloy was formed using electrolyte solution of ethylene glycol + NH4F which was anodized for 3 hours
