PREDICTION OF WELL BEHAVIOR USING WELL DELIVERABILITY ANALYSIS
In operating geothermal field, the thing to note is the sustainable production as well as problems that affect it. The problem that often occurs in the geothermal field is scale, corrosion and mechanical problems. One technique that can be used to predict the problems that occur around the bottom hole to the surface is using the well deliverability analysis method. Analysis is done by data and curve interpretation of deliverability curve based on Grant experiment. This study take data from several wells in two Geothermal Field in Indonesia. From the analysis, well A, D and F show production decline The deliverability curve of well A shows the production decline for about 60 – 85%, it is caused by moving of the flashing point, it shows from the increasing of dryness value from 7-14% in 1997 become 13-15% in 2010. The deliverability curve of well D shows the production decline for about 50%, it is caused by declining of reservoir pressure that can be seen from the decreasing of feed zone pressure in 1997 is 27 bar and in 2010 is 20 bar. The deliverability curve of well F shows the production decline for about 29%, it is caused by moving of the flashing point
INFLUENCE OF EFFECTIVE SIZE AND LEVEL OF SUPERNATANT LAYER IN SLOW SAND FILTER PERFORMANCE
Slow sand filtration has been admitted as an old method of water treatment and has been widely used in the world. This type of sand filter is prominent in its simplicity, low cost, and effectiveness. The term effectiveness refers to the performance on removing particulate matter and microorganisms. There are some significant factors should be considered in the system of slow sand filtration, such as grain size distribution of media, sand type, bed depth, operation mode of filter, and filtration rate. This study focuses on the influence of different effective size of media and operation mode in slow sand filtration especially on removing turbidity. Grain size distribution is represented by the effective size (d10) and uniformity coefficient (Cu). In regard to the operation mode, both sizes were operated under intermittent operation mode and were compared in two different level of supernatant layer: decreasing level and constant level. Laboratory scale experiments were conducted using four filter columns. Two filter columns were filled up with Rhein sand in different effective size of d10 0.075 mm and d10 0.50 mm. Uniformity coefficient Cu 2.5 and curvature coefficient Cc 1 were the same for both d10. Every column was fed with the same concentration of artificial raw water. The artificial raw water was created from Heilerde (clay from Germany) which passed 0.063 mm sieve opening mixed with tap water. Fine grain size tends to be easier to be controlled in regard to filtration rate, and vice versa for the coarse grain size. Surprisingly, the coarse grain size was able to remove turbidity as good as the fine grain size. Permeability of column was also tested and it decreased along with the addition of Heilerde

DESIGN OF A PROTOTYPE HYDRO COIL TURBINE APPLIED AS MICRO HYDRO SOLUTION
This study deals with the effort to release new revolution of renewable energy concept. Key issue in generating hydro power from low head, low flow sources until now has been impractical, expensive in efficient and complex technology. The idea of using Hydro Coil instead of turbine gives an economic advantage that it is relatively cheaper. The apparatus allows us to exploit sides that would not be practical at all for conventional small hydroelectric power.Hydro Coil turbine in experimental prototype has been designed, built and tested. The turbine includes 4 inches acrylic with ribbon-like curved shape insert, which present a gradual curve of approximately 70 degrees from the axial flow of water progressing to a tightly curved angle perpendicular to the flow of water at the exit point. The gradual curve is used to reducing the axial velocity of water, thereby further as consequence of transfer energy from water to ribbon, thus the central axle and ribbon rotated. This rotation is initiated at the low frequency coil, with energy incrementally transferred as water, hitting the low frequency coil, turning the ribbon slowly, progressing gradually to higher frequency, tight coil where maximal energy to the transfer occurs.Characteristics and efficiency of Hydro Coil turbine can be identified after laboratory experimental already finished. Turbine efficiency in 92.93% of this prototype exceeds expectation in the experiments. It thus demonstrates the promising potential of Hydro Coil technology to extract power from incoming water flow in low head sources
