Non-destructive measurement for estimating leaf area of Bellis perennis
Non-destructive measurement of approaches of modeling can be very convenient and useful for plant growth estimation. This study, digital image processing was evaluated as a non-destructive technique to estimate leaf area of Bellis perennis. The plant samples were growing in the greenhouse and the images were taken every day using Kinect camera. The proposed method used combination of L*a*b* color space, Otsus thresholding, morphological operations and connected component analysis to estimate leaf area of Bellis perennis. L* channel was used to distinguish the leaves and background. Calibration area uses a pot of known area in each image as a scale to calibrate the leaves area. The results show that the algorithm is able to separate leaf pixels from soil or pot backgrounds, and also allow it to be implemented in greenhouse automatically. This algorithm can be used for other plants in assumption that there is not too much leaf overlapped during measurement

Quality Characteristics of Nutmeg Oil Between Used Barrels Distillation and Stainless Distillation (A Case Study in Aceh Selatan Regency)ABSTRACT. The Province of Aceh is the center of nutmeg oil production in Indonesia, which is about 70%-75% of the nutmeg oil production in Indonesia, is produced in the districts of South Aceh and Southwest Aceh. The rest is coming from the provinces of West Sumatra and West Java. Meanwhile, the nutmeg harvested in Maluku, North Maluku, North Sulawesi, and West Papua is not processed for its essential oil, but merely exported as spices. It is estimated that in 2017 the production of nutmeg oil will reach about 350-400 tones. The government has put a standard for nutmeg oil based on SNI 06-2388-2006. Therefore, taking this standard as consideration, a study on the characteristics of nutmeg oil quality in South Aceh was carried with 14 distillers as the sample. The tested nutmeg oil was taken from the distillers, both stainless distillation drum and used drum. The characteristics of nutmeg oil coming out of the used drum is from colorless to pale yellowish one, has nutmeg scent, specific gravity: 0,884 - 0,960, rafractive index: 1,481-1,500, optical rotation: (+)6,20o - (+)19,30o and rest of evaporation is between 5,70% - 28,15%.

Near Infrared Technology As a Robust and Environmental Friendly Approach To Biofuel Analysis: Rapid Biodiesel Classification and Quality Prediction
Abstract. The use of ethanol and biodiesel, which are alternative fuels or biofuels, has increased in the last few years. Modern ofcial standards list 25 parameters that must be determined to certify biodiesel quality. In order to determine biofuel quality, several methods were already widely used in which most of them were based on solvent extraction followed by other laboratory procedures. Yet, these methods are expensive, laborious and complicated processing for samples. Near infrared reflectance spectroscopy (NIRS) can be considered as a fast, pollution-free and non-destructive method in determining biofuel quality parameters. The objective of this study is to apply near infrared technology in classifying biodiesel based on KOH (0.3, 0.5 and 0.7) and to predict related biodiesel quality properties (water content, linolenic fatty acid, oleic acid, and stearic acid) based on its infrared reflectance. Biodiesel infrared spectrum was acquired in wavelength range from 1000 to 2500 nm for different mentioned three KOH content. Principal component analysis (PCA) with non-iterative partial least square (NIPALS) was applied to analyze biodiesel spectral data. The result showed that two principal components (PC1=97% ad PC2 = 2%) based on infrared reflectance data were successfully able to recognize and classify biodiesel based on their used KOH. Moreover, the wavelength range of 1000 1140 were to be believed related to linolenic fatty acid whilst 1450 nm and 1930 nm were associated with water content. Stearic acid can be predicted in wavelength range of 1330 1380 nm and wavelength range of 1725 1790 nm were related to oleic acid of biodiesel. This may conclude that infrared technology was feasible to use as a rapid, effective and non-invasive method in biofuel classification and evaluation

Abstrak. Tanah merupakan media tumbuh tanaman dan berperan dalam menjaga keseimbangan alam. Evaluasi kualitas dan kesuburan tanah menjadi hal penting dan merupakan pekerjaan rutin pada crop management system. Untuk memonitor dan menentukan kualitas tanah, beberapa metode telah diterapkan. Akan tetapi, metode tersebut berbasis pengukuran laboratorium yang melibatkan bahan kimia, memerlukan waktu yang lama dan kurang efektif pada aplikasinya. Infrared spectroscopy muncul sebagai salah satu teknologi yang cepat, simultan dan ramah lingkungan untuk digunakan dalam evaluasi kualitas dan kesuburan tanah dengan memprediksi nutrisi tanah yang utama berupa C, N, P dan K. Spektrum transmisi infrared (IR) diakuisisi pada panjang gelombang 1000-2500 nm dengan menerapkan metode photo-acoustic spectroscopy (PAS). Pendekatan metode Least square-support vector machine regression (LS-SVM) digunakan untuk memprediksi parameter nutrisi tanah. Hasil studi menemukan bahwa parameter C dan N pada tanah dapat diprediksi dengan sempurna karena C-N mengalami stretching akibat serapan gelombang IR. Sedangkan unsur nutrisi lain seperti P, K, Mg, Ca, S dapat diprediksi dengan maksimum residual predictive deviation (RPD) index maksimum 1.9. Lebih lanjut, lempung tanah, air tanah, dan mikroba tanah kemungkinan dapat diklasifikasi dengan baik dengan metode IR-PAS dan bantuan metode klasifikasi least-square discriminant analysis (LS-DA) dan cluster analysis (CA). Berdasarkan hasil studi, dapat disimpulkan bahwa teknologi FTIR-PAS dapat digunakan untuk real-time monitoring kualitas dan kesuburan tanah.The Application of Fourier Transform Infrared Photoacoustics Spectroscopy (FTIR-PAS) for Rapid Soil Quality Evaluation Abstract. The major function of soil is to provide fundamental natural resources for survival of plants, animals, and the human race. Soil functions depend on the balances of its structure and composition, well as the chemical, biological, and physical properties. It is become one important key aspect and routine activity in crop management system. To monitor and determine soil quality properties, several methods were already widely used in which most of them are based on solvent extraction followed by other laboratory procedures. However, these methods often require laborious and complicated processing for samples. They are time consuming and destructive. In last few decades, the application of infrared spectroscopy as non-destructive technique in determining soil quality properties (C, N, P and K) rapidly and simultaneously. Fourier transform infrared spectrum (FTIR) were acquired in wavelength range from 1000 to 2500 nm with applying photo-acoustic spectroscopy (PAS). Least square-support vector machine regression (LS-SVM) approach was then applied to predict soil quality properties. The results showed that C and N can be predicted accurately using FTIR-PAS whilst other parameters (P, K, Mg, Ca, S) can be predicted with maximum RPD index is 1.9. Moreover, soil clay, moisture and soil microbes were feasible to be detected by using FTIR-PAS combining with discriminant analysis (LS-DA) or cluster analysis (CA). It may conclude that FTIR-PAS technology can be used as a real time method in monitoring soil quality and fertility properties
