Numerous studies have underscored its significance by isolating and analyzing its secondary metabolites for bioactivity. The focus of this research…
The epiphytic fern Pyrrosia lanceolata is used as a folk medicine and is widely recognized for its efficacy by the general public. Isolating secondary metabolites and determining their activity are just two of the many successful studies that have been conducted. This research was conducted with the objectives of isolating and characterizing the pure compounds that obtained from the dichloromet…
MACOPF has been successfully synthesized using various amounts of NaOH as a precipitating agent. The activated carbon was derived from oil palm frond biomass carbonized at 600°C for 60 minutes, chemically activated using KOH with a charcoal to KOH weight ratio of 1:3, and calcined at 800°C for 30 minutes. The synthesis of MACOPF was carried out using the coprecipitation method, where activate…
Leachate causes environmental pollution due to the content of toxic compounds and pathogenic microorganisms through garbage piles, so it is necessary to process so that the leachate that is disposed of is safe and does not harm the environment, one of which is by using SBR technology. This study aims to isolate COD, TSS, VSS, pH and ammonia in leachate. The processing process in this …
Silica fume and rice husk ash are among the residual materials or waste, which have not been optimally utilized, both by society and industry. Meanwhile, paving blocks are still widely used as building materials. Until now, the use of paving blocks still raises environmental issues. Therefore, this research aims to create alternative paving blocks that are more environmentally friendly,…
The large production of Crude Palm Oil (CPO) causes a large amount of Palm Oil Mill Effluent (POME) to be produced. POME contains high organic substances and is rich in nutrients N, P, and K. Recently, One of the alternatives treatment used to treat POME is using Granular Indigenous Microalgal-Bacterial Consortium (GIMBC), which is a microalgae-bacteria aggregate with a solid and compact…
The increasing human population is directly proportional to the amount of wastewater produced. The greater the use of water, the greater the domestic wastewater produced. In general, domestic wastewater treatment uses activated sludge. However, this treatment has several drawbacks such as not being able to remove nutrients, requiring large electrical energy for aeration, and further slu…
Domestic wastewater is a complex environmental problem that requires effective treatment technologies. The most widely used biological treatment today is Conventional Activated Sludge (CAS), but CAS has shortcomings such as poor sludge settling performance, high energy consumption, requires a large area, long hydraulic retention time, produces CO2 gas and produces excessive sludge and l…
Palm Oil Mill Effluent (POME) is wastewater derived from the production of crude palm oil (CPO) that can pollute water bodies. Generally, POME is treated using conventional systems, but the treated POME still contains nutrient-rich organic compounds such as carbohydrates, organic acids, and nitrogen. The remaining organic compounds can be utilized as a growth medium for microalgae and …
Palm oil production in Riau Province reached 8.97 million tons in 2022 along with the wastewater produced. Each ton of oil palm fresh fruit bunches will produce 0.7- 0.8 m3 of Palm Oil Mill Effluent (POME) which is treated with conventional systems. However, the conventional system produces greenhouse gases and residual nutrients that can be utilized by microorganisms through mutualism …
Indonesia's palm oil industry has increased by an average of 8% per year, resulting in an increase in wastewater. The production of one ton of palm oil will produce 2.5 tons of wastewater or Palm Oil Mill Effluent (POME) which is treated with an open pond system. The open pond system still leaves greenhouse gases (GHG) and nutrient content that can be utilized in the formation of Granul…
One of the current technological developments that is very rapid in society is motorcycles. The increase in the number of motorcycle transportation causes the use of lubricating oil to increase, because in general, every certain distance or range of 3,000 to 5,000 kilometers of lubricating oil must be immediately replaced with a new oil of 1 liter. Each replacement will certainly produc…
This research was carried out in a power plant unit with a total working area of 745 m2, which is a unit that is a source of electrical energy to support all activities at PT KPI RU II Sei Pakning. The source of electrical energy comes from a generator engine which operates continuously for 24 hours, producing continuous loud noise, which will increase sound exposure to workers and incr…
The growth in the number of car vehicles in Indonesia continues to experience development along with the use of oil as an engine lubricant that continues to increase every year. The availability of large amounts of used oil waste must be managed quickly because used oil is acidic and contains residues that are hazardous to the environment. The purpose of this study was to determine the …
Ethyl Tertiary Butyl Eter is a chemical that enhances fuel octains and reduces the production of toxic hydrocarbons. The plant is planned to operate 330 days a year and operate continuously 24 hours a day with a capacity of 55,000 tonnes a year to be established in Serang, Banten. The selected company form is a Limited Company with a line and staff organization system. The employee's wo…
The need for fuel oil (BBM) in Indonesia has increased quite significantly along with the increase in the number of private cars and motorbikes. Limited supplies of petroleum reserves and environmental problems have caused countries in the world to start switching to the production or use of biofuels. One biofuel that can replace fossil fuels is biobutanol which is made by fermenting of…
