Overview of BTX (Benzene, Toluene, Xylene) Production from Polyethylene Pyrolysis over Ga and Zn Modified HZSM-5 Catalyst
The increase in Indonesia\u27s BTX chemical production was carried out to keep pace with global demand trends. The raw material for alternative production is household waste in Indonesia, of which 36% is plastic. Polyolefins make up 76% of the composition of household plastic waste. The rapidly developed BTX production process is the depolymerization of polyolefin plastics by pyrolysis and catalyst modification for catalysis. Polyolefin plastic in the form of polyethylene produces the highest aromatic yield and selectivity among other types of plastic in plastic waste. This study compared two scenarios with the highest yield of aromatics using different catalysts as base literature with an additional overview regarding the topic related. The process scenarios being compared are polyethylene pyrolysis over CaO with Ga/ZSM-5 catalyst and Zn-ZSM-5 catalyst. Literature overview obtained the overall BTX production progress over time and the potential of polyethylene catalytic pyrolysis for further stud

Potensi Selulosa Bakteri Sebagai Pembalut Luka Ideal dan Penghantar Obat (Drug Delivery)
The wound healing process requires an environment that can maintain moisture, absorb excess exudate, and is biodegradable. Conventional wound dressings such as cotton, gauze, and bandages cause wound dehydration. Bacterial cellulose derived from the fermentation of coconut water by Acetobacter xylinum bacteria has unique characteristics that have the potential to be an ideal wound dressing because it can provide a moist environment. It also has good mechanical properties, biodegradability, high biocompatibility, and is non-toxic. Bacterial cellulose produces fine fibres forming a thin layer of extracellular polysaccharides. Such fibre makes it possible to bind to the molecules of the drug. This research will study the mechanical properties and efficiency of drug mass transfer from bacterial cellulose membranes with different carbon sources, namely glucose and fructose, with fermentation time variations of 3, 5, and 7 days. The results showed that the characteristic value of the fructose carbon source was superior to that of glucose. The glucose carbon source has a membrane thickness of 0.81; 6,93; 10.61 mm; fructose is 2.80; 8,41; 13.40 mm. The highest absorption capacity, stress, elongation and drug mass efficiency value is obtained by a fructose carbon source with a fermentation time of 7 days, and for absorption capacity obtained at 1.1640 g/g, stress value 105.9 N with elongation 19.90 mm and drug mass efficiency 4.085
Prediksi Kesetimbangan Uap-Cair Sistem Biner 3-Pentanol + Asam Propionat Sebagai Basis Pada Proses Desain Pemurnian Biofuel
The depletion of fossil fuels has led to a turn toward renewable and cleaner diesel fuel. In recent years, research has focused on the development of green energy to replace fossil fuels. 3-Pentanol is the preferred alternative fuel because it has better fuel properties compared to other biofuels. 3-Pentanol, as a propionic acid derivative chemical platform, can be produced from renewable biomass through the lactic acid pathway. Therefore, to obtain 3-Pentanol with high purity, a purification process such as distillation is required. Vapor-liquid equilibrium data and the thermodynamic model parameters are needed as basis for designing a distillation column and optimizing the separation process. The aim of this study is to predict the vapor-liquid equilibria (VLE) of the binary systems of 3-Pentanol + propionic acid at 100 kPa, 200 kPa, and 300 kPa using the UNIFAC model in combination with the Hayden-O’Connell model. The prediction results showed no azeotropes found for the studied systems. This study can also open a scope for the thermodynamic studies of biofuel separation process
Pengaruh Penambahan Jumlah Air terhadap Kekerasan, Kerapuhan dan Waktu Hancur Tablet Obat
The water content in the tablet is related to the compressibility of the tablet, because the water content formed acts as a binder that will fill the empty space between tablets. Excess water content in the tablet formulation can cause the tablet to become hydrophobic so that the tablet is difficult to wet during dissolution and travels in the body. Thus, the tablet will be more difficult to disintegrate in the stomach. The procedure for turning jackfruit seeds into flour are peeling, milling, and drying at a temperature of 105 oC. Following, water at 90 oC is mixed with jackfruit seed flour to make mocilago (mixture 1). fdc yellow and patent blue v dye into a beakerglass containing aquademin 95 oC then stir until completely uniform (mixture 2). Put mixture 1 into mixture 2 which has a temperature >80 oC. In the granulation stage, all ingredients are mixed with fine granulated sugar, magnesium hydroxide, dimethyl polysiloxane, some jackfruit seed flour and hydrotalcite to form mixture 3. Then add the binder solution Granule drying and drug printing processes follow. The characterization parameters of tablets produced in this research were tablet friability, tablet hardness and tablet disintegration time. Adding 193.2 mL of water to 25.6 grams of jackfruit seed powder was a variable that gives optimum effect on tablet hardness, friability, and disintegration tim
Degradasi Masker Sekali Pakai dengan Vermiremediasi dan Penambahan Isolat Bakteri Teluk Lampung
The use of disposable face masks during the Covid-19 pandemic has resulted in the emergence of mask waste polluting aquatic environments due to poor management. This waste will decompose into microfibers which accumulate in aquatic organisms. The combination of vermiremediation with the addition of degrading microorganisms can be one of the solutions for treating disposable mask waste. In this study, Eudrilus eugeniae, an earthworm species, was used in vermiremediation with variations in the treatment by adding indigenous bacterial isolate from the waters of Lampung Bay which has been proven able to degrade disposable masks. The results showed that the vermiremediation technique can be used to degrade disposable masks, indicated by a decrease in mask weight after incubation for two months in the amount of 0.03 grams and 0.05 grams for the treatment with the Eudrilus eugeniae and a combination of bacterial isolate respectively against the initial weight. Lampung Bay indigenous bacterial isolate helped accelerate the mask degradation process in the combined vermiremediation technique. The carbon, nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium contents of the compost produced by the vermiremediation process have met the SNI for compost from domestic organic waste
Physical Separation Bahan Aktif Katoda dari Campuran Hasil CrushingBaterai Lithium-Ion Bekas
The increasing use of electric vehicles in the coming decades makes the recycling of spent li-ion batteries an important topic to develop. Recycling spent li-ion batteries is necessary to extract valuable materials from the battery cathode. Elutriation is one of the separation method to separate the cathode and anode from the blackmass resulting from crushing by utilizing differences in density and terminal velocity. The Elutriation method is attractive to develop because the separation is done by adjusting the fluid velocity and does not use chemicals. In this study, 4 variations of fluid load will be used, namely 24, 27, 30, and 34 mL/min. The blackmass to be elutriated has a size variation between -38 to +53 micrometers. From the results under the elutriator, the cathode mass obtained for fluid load variations of 24, 27, 30, and 34 mL/min are 0.8366, 0.4333, 0.3907, and 0.1349 grams. The highest cathode recovery at a load of 24 mL/min is 97.21% and the cathode fraction is 0.4091. Furthermore, it can increase the cathode composition in the mixture by 48.98% and reduce the anode composition by 18.54%

Sintesis dan Karakterisasi Hidroksiapatit Cangkang Rajungan dengan Variasi Suhu Kalsinasi dan Konsentasi KH2PO4 menggunakan Metode Presipitasi Sebagai Sediaan Biomaterial Implan Tulang
Bone implants are mostly made of non-degradable metal materials that are toxic to the body. An alternative biodegradable material being developed is Poly-L-Lactic Acid (PLLA). However, PLLA has the disadvantage of being incompatible with bone tissue. So, materials that are biodegradable and biocompatible are needed, such as hydroxyapatite, which has similarities with the minerals in bone and teeth, it suitable as an alternative biomaterial in the biomedical. This research aims to determine the effect of synthesis conditions, with calcination temperature (850, 900, 950, 1000°C) and KH2PO4 concentration (0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1 M), on the production of hydroxyapatite using raw materials from local blue crab shells, in terms of calcium content, functional group presence, and conformity of hydroxyapatite peaks with JCPDS 09-0432. The synthesized product was characterized using XRF, which showed a relatively high calcium in crab shells of 94.89% at calcination temperature 850°C. The FTIR test results after the mixing of KH2PO4 with CaO showed the formation of hydroxyapatite functional groups, namely OH- and PO43-, in all variables. The XRD test results showed that at 850°C and KH2PO4 concentration of 0.75 M the main peak of hydroxyapatite was closest to JCPDS 09-0432, at a diffraction angle (2θ) of 31.7634
