Used paper is a waste material that can be recycled. One of the contents of used paper is cellulose that can be converted to glucose with hydrolysis process. The aim of this study are to determine the effect of hydrochloric acid concentration and hydrolysis time, then to calculate the amount of feed yield of glucose produced. Hydrolysis process using hydrochloric acid (HCl) as a catalyst which …
Peat water is the surface water of peat soil with a very striking characteristic because it is brownish red color, contains high organic matter and high enough iron, acid taste with pH 3-5 and low level of hardness. Peat water has potential as supply of nutrients in microalgae cultivation. Some microalgae growth factors are light intensity, CO2 and nutrients. The purpose of this study is to det…

Galvani cells are one of the alternative energy sources that can convert chemical reaction into electrical energy. The purpose of this research is to utilize electronics scraps (Cannon ip 1680) for electrochemical cells by using variation of lime juice concentration (ie 1%, 3%, 5%, 7%, and 9%) with electrode pair (1 to 8 pairs). In this study, the power generating unit consists of circuit print…
Peat soil is an organic material that is formed from organic materials, peat soil has several macro nutrient content (N, P, K, Ca, Mg, Carbon (C)) and micro (Cu, Fe, Mn, Zn) (nutrient) . Microalgae are micro-sized plant groups, both single cells and colonies that live in all areas of freshwater and marine waters. Nutritional factors are one of the important factors that need to be considered in…

Bromelien is one of the sulfihydryl protease enzymes obtained through the isolation process of bromelien enzymes capable of hydrolyzing the peptide bonds of proteins or polypeptides into smaller molecules of amino acids. This study aims to extract the enzyme bromelien from pineapple cobs and determine the activity of bromelien enzyme. The crude extract of bromelien enzyme was obtained by precip…
Currently, the siak water has yellows colour, smells, contains organic substances and acidic pH. People who live in the stream areas along the siak river using the water directly. They used it for bathing, washing without processing it in advance. In this research, the water was treated by using coagulation, floccculation, sedimentation and filtration processes. The purpose of this research was…
Biomass is an interesting source of energy to developed since its abundance and renewable properties. One of the sources of biomass is used paper. It can be utilized into glucose by hydrolysis process because it has holocelluloses. The aim of this study was to convert the used paper to glucose by using hydrolysis process with employed sulphuric acid as a catalyst, to determine the effect of sul…
Biodiesel is an alternative fuel that is similar to diesel. Previously many biodiesel developed using raw materials of vegetable oil, but for raw materials using animal fat is still not widely developed. One of animal fat that can be used as raw material for making biodiesel is chicken fat. In this study chicken fat will pass through the hydrolysis stage before transesterification into biodiese…
Briquettes are biomass-based alternative energy sources. Biomass used in this study is cow dung. The purpose of this research is to utilize cow dung waste as raw material of briquettes, study the effect of using and without using adhesive to briquette’s characteristics and to determine the best briquette composition according to the national quality standard 01-6235-2000. The treatment of raw…
Waste has become a difficult problem to overcome worldwide where plastic consumes 40% of the waste. basically plastic is used as a wrapping tool. because the price is cheap, airtight and resistant to changes in plastic temperature so favored by the community while recycling technology is still expensive and the plastic is difficult to be deciphered by bacteria so that plastic waste accumulates.…
Used oil is used cooking oil that is generally not used for cooking or frying. The use of used cooking oil is very dangerous because it can cause various diseases, then the utilization of used cooking oil by way of clarified again for the manufacture of transparent soap. Transparent soap is bar soap with transparent or translucent appearance. In this study, the use of wood charcoal on refining …

Corrosion is the deterioration of metal by chemical attack or reaction with its environment. It is a constant and continuous problem, often difficult to eliminate completely. One of the method of inhibiting corrosion process is use corrosion inhibitors. Guava leaf extract contains tannins which can be used as inhibitor. AISI 4140 steel is an alloy of nickel and chromium steel. The purpose of th…
Making biodiesel from Palm Fatty Acid Distillate (PFAD) through processes, Esterification processes which produce methyl esters which can be used as an alternative to petroleum substitutes for diesel fuel. The purpose of this research is to utilize PFAD as raw material of biodiesel making with esterification process then continued with transesterification process, Studied the influence of ester…
A mixture of waste cooking oil with diesel fuel there has not been used people to fuel stove the stove. During this time, many people used the oil land on the stove, but the price is very expensive. This study aims to look for materials alternative fuels substitute oil ground to the stove furnace wheelbase. To get the performance of the fuel best eaten do a variety of treatment ratio a mixture …
Pulp industry generally uses wood as raw material for pulp making. The limited number of wood raw materials causes a raw material crisis. Indonesia is a rich country of agricultural and plantation products, one of which is corn. Corn and corncobs contain 44.08% cellulose content that can be used for pulp making.
