ABSTRACT Clean water services in Sungai Sembilan District, Dumai City originate from groundwater and rainwater without going through a clear processing process, in which the quality, quantity and continuity of these water sources have not been guaranteed. The maximum daily need for water in Sungai Sembilan District in 2041 will reach 119.1 liters/second. So it is necessary to plan a drinking w…
ABSTRACT Peat water potentially be raw water because plenty of its availability, but peat water has characteristics that do not yet fulfill raw water quality according to PERMENKES RI Number 32 of 2017. Peat water has high natural organic matter and color, so it needs to be carried out with water treatment. One possible treatment is coagulation flocculation using aluminum sulfate which has a c…
ABSTRACT The need for energy sources is increasing along with the increase in energy consumption by the community. This must be immediately balanced with the provision of new renewable energy sources. One step that has been widely researched and developed is biomass. Briquettes are an alternative fuel from biomass utilization. In Indonesia, sago pulp has considerable potential to be used as re…
ABSTRACT Providing clean water is a problem for some residents who live in peat areas, where the raw water, commonly called peat water, has a high organic matter and color content. One of the peat water treatments that can be done is coagulation, flocculation, and sedimentation. This study aims to determine the effect of rapid mixing speed on coagulation, flocculation, and sedimentation proces…
ABSTRACT Solid organic fertilizer is the result of composting from agricultural waste and livestock waste, which contains macro and micro nutrients so that it can improve soil structure. This study aims to obtain a formula that meets the criteria to be achieved in the manufacture of compost from equalizing sludge in tofu waste with a variety of raw materials such as rice husks and sawdust and …

ABSTRACT The waste problem faced by Indonesia is the biggest problem in the environmental field it is necessary to use it, such as converting it into biogas alternative energy. This study aims to analyze the effect of Starter addition variations on biogas production from Bina Widya campus waste, Riau University using dry anaerobic digestion method. This study uses a variety of starter types to…
ABSTRACT Pekanbaru City's wastewater access coverage consists of 90% local systems, 7.59% babs and 2.41% inadequate access. A Centralized Domestic Wastewater Management System (SPALDT) has been planned for Pekanbaru City which is located in Rejosari Village, Tenayan Raya District which will serve 5 districts namely Pekanbaru City, Limapuluh, Sail, Senapelan and Sukajadi, namun there are still …
ABSTRAK A tribometer is an instrument used to measure a tribological quantity consisting of the coefficient of friction, frictional force, and volume of wear between two materials in contact with each other. This final project aims to manufacture and assemble a gear type tribometer and determine the effect of oil (lubricant) on gears. Generally what is related to the Tribometer is testing on ma…
In the pulp industry it is often to encounter high energy consumption, some of which is due to sub-optimal equipment design. One of the main findings is pipeline as pulp slurry transportation because the use of empirical correlations is out of scope of application, such as different levels of pulp consistency and average flow velocity are applied. Although the process steps are based on the…
ABSTRACT Soil respiration is the main route for the transfer of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from ecosystems to the atmosphere which makes it one of the contributors to carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from the agricultural sector. Activated carbon can improve the physical, chemical, and biological properties of the soil and has the potential to be a useful material for reducing CO2 emissions …
ABSTRACT Industrial growth and the increasing number of transportation causes the need for oil to increase. The increasing need for oil is directly proportional to the waste produced, namely used oil. The use of used oil waste is an environmentally friendly and renewable alternative fuel. This study uses a mixture of used oil and Pertamina Dex fuel which is used as fuel in analyzing exhaust emi…
ABSTRACT Shrimp waste in the form of shells, heads and tails which contain protein, can be processed into chitin which has many uses. Chitin is a polymer produced by shellfish (shellfish). Indonesia is one of the largest shrimp producers in the world, where the shell contains chitin compounds as an alternative adsorbent. This compound can be processed and used as an adsorbent for heavy metals.…
The pulp and paper industry ranks third in water use after the metal and chemical industries. The use of water in the industry impacts the liquid waste produced. The effluent from the pulp and paper industry has a very complex composition. Therefore it is almost impractical to characterise all the components like other industrial wastewater. Based on government regulations, liquid waste di…
Biodiesel is an alternative fuel to a diesel engine that can replace or reduce the use of petroleum diesel. PFAD (Palm Fatty Acid Distillate) is a by-product of physical refining of crude palm oil products and is contained of free fatty acid (FFA) more than 85 wt.%. Esterification is a chemical reaction used to produce biodiesel from feedstocks with high FFA. Hydroxyapatite derived from waste f…
ABSTRACT Utilization of grain as a natural coagulant has been widely used. This is an alternative to the use of synthetic coagulants. Mung bean seeds can be used as a natural coagulant because they contain protein. This study aims to determine the effect of coagulant dosage and slow stirring time on the efficiency of turbidity removal and TDS in river water using natural coagulants from mung be…
ABSTRACT Peat water is surface water that’s found in swampy and lowland areas that contain high organic substances, are acidic and dark brown to blackish in color, which in quality do not meet the criteria for clean water quality. The high content of organic substances and color in peat water is difficult to be treated conventional coagulation-flocculation processes due to lack of turbidity,…
ABSTRACT In terms of quantity, peat water has the potential to become a source of clean water. However, in terms of quality, peat water is not acceptable for utilize because of the high content of organic matter and color. The high organic matter and color of peat water make it difficult to treat peat water with the usual coagulation-flocculation process, so kaolin was added in this research. …
ABSTRACT Sail River is one of the tributaries of the Saik River that crosses Bukit Raya District, Tenayan Raya District, Sail District and Lima Puluh District, Pekanbaru City. The Sail Watershed (DAS) is in a densely populated and activity-dense area. The Sail River also acts as the main drainage in Pekanbaru City, community activities around the Sail River such as residential areas, plantatio…
ABSTRACT Peat water has a high content of organic matter and color, so it is not suitable for direct use for clean water without processing it first.
