ABSTRACT The process of pyrolysis of plastic waste is a process of decomposing organic compounds contained in plastic through a heating process with little or no oxygen involved. In the pyrolysis process, long chain hydrocarbon compounds found in plastics are expected to be converted into shorter hydrocarbon compounds and can be used as alternative fuels. This study aims to process polypropyle…

ABSTRACT Spray hand sanitizer is a practical anti-germicidal spray preparation form in the form of an antiseptic liquid, its use by spraying it on the palms of the hands, then applying it evenly to the surface of the hands. The purpose of this study was to determine the functional groups of flavonoid compounds from pineapple peel viscous extract by performing FTIR spectroscopy testing and …
ABSTRACT Indonesia has many companies or home industries that process tea. This condition has the potential to produce solid waste in the form of tea waste in relatively large quantities. So far, tea waste is only fermented into fertilizer and the rest is simply thrown away, so further processing is needed to become a product that has economic value. Tea waste can be processed into environmenta…

ABSTRACT Aluminum sulfate (Al2(SO4)3) is one of the chemicals that is needed in various industries, especially in water treatment processes. The establishment of an aluminum sulfate factory with a capacity of 12,500 tons/year in Pontianak, West Kalimantan is one of the efforts to meet the needs of chemical factories for aluminum sulfate and also to meet the export needs of aluminum sulfate in …
ABSTRACT Acrylonitrile is a chemical that has many uses. In the industrial sector, acrylonitrile is known as an intermediate used in the manufacture of polymers such as thermoplastic acrylic fibers (Acrylonitrile Butadiene and Styrene), NBR (Nitrile Barrier Resins), synthetic rubber and aponitrile. The production of acrylonitrile can be done by several processes, one of which is the sohio proc…
ABSTRACT Indonesia is one of the countries that continues to encourage the growth of the domestic chemical industry so that it becomes a driving sector for the national economy. One of the important chemical industries is the urea formaldehyde industry. This is because based on a report published by Fior Markets, the global urea formaldehyde market is expected to grow from USD 6,3 billion in 2…
ABSTRACT Calcium sulfate dihydrate (CaSO4.2H2O) or gypsum is one of the most useful processed materials. Applications of calcium sulfate dihydrate are as a building material, a chalk-making material, an additive in the manufacture of portland cement, and as an additive in certain foods such as tofu and some medicines and pharmaceuticals. The process of forming calcium sulfate dihydrate (gypsum…
ABSTRACT Phenol is one of the chemicals needed in various industries. In the chemical industry, phenol is used as a raw material for making phenolic resins, raw material for making bisphenol-A, nylon, peptides and medicines. The process for making phenol is carried out using the versalis process/lummus technology by reacting cumene and oxygen. The purpose of the bubble column reactor (R-103) i…
ABSTRACT Indonesia has abundant mineral content, especially bauxite. Bauxite contains alumina (Al2O3) which can be processed into aluminum sulfate (Al2(SO4)3) through the Dorr process. Aluminum sulfate is an indispensable chemical in many industries such as the paper, batik, textile, leather, cosmetic, and fire extinguishing industries. The raw materials used in the manufacture of aluminum sul…
