ABSTRACT Forest and land fires can produce Greenhouse Gas (GHG), most of which are in the form of carbon dioxide (CO2) which are harmful to health and the environment. The purpose of this study was to determine the distribution of hotspots in Riau Province as forest and land fires, estimate forest and land fires, and calculate carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from burned areas on different l…
The supply of clean water in Riau Province can only reach urban areas, thus encouraging some people in rural areas to use peat water to meet their needs. Peat water does not meet the specified clean water quality standards because it has the characteristics of a brownish red color, low acidity and high organic matter content. This study aims to treat peat water using a ceramic membrane filtrati…
ABSTRACT The country of Indonesia is ranked second in the world for producing plastic waste, so the use of plastic waste must be carried out. The use of plastic waste as an additive in asphalt mixtures can improve the quality of asphalt concrete pavement and also reduce plastic waste. This study aims to determine the effect of adding plastic waste to the characteristics of modified asphalt…
ABSTRACT Rotating Alga Biofilm Reactor (RABR) is a biological wastewater treatment using microorganisms with suspension and biofilm culture processes. The microorganism used in this study was the microalgae Chlorella sp. that require nutrients such as carbon, nitrogen and light for growth. This nutrient source is obtained from domestic wastewater which has a high organic matter content. In thi…
Changes in land cover are the most important factors causing global environmental change. This land cover change causes an increase in gases, especially CO2 gas in the atmosphere, thus becoming one of the causes of carbon gas emissions. The study site is located in Pekanbaru City which is the capital city of Riau Province with a relatively rapid rate of regional development because it is a …
ABSTRACT The adsorption process of artificial Cu 2+ solutions was investigated using an adsorbent made from Oil Palm Empty Fruit Bunches (EFB). EFB is one of the largest solid wastes produced from agricultural activities which contain lignocellulose. The characterization used for physical activation and physical-chemical activation adsorbents is a FT-IR spectrophotometer. FT-IR analysis showed…
ABSTRACT Domestic wastewater consists of black water and grey water, grey water as the largest contributor to the total domestic wastewater contains organic material. Microalgae Chlorella sp can its organic compounds and nutrients for photosynthesis to reduce pollutants in grey wastewater. Rotary Algae Biofilm Reactor (RABR) technology is a biological treatment with a suspended growth sys…
ABSTRACT Peat water is surface water from peat soil that occurs as a result of organic material formed from incomplete decomposition by plants in wetlands in very humid conditions and lack of oxygen. Peat water has a high concentration of organic substances and is brownish red when consumed directly will have a negative impact on health. Ceramic membrane is a technology that can be used to fil…
ABSTRACT Propylene glycol or 1,2-propanediol is an organic compound that has low toxicity so it is used as a raw material in food products, cosmetics, and medicines. Propylene glycol is used as a solvent and preservative, moisturizer, medicinal formula and viscosity stabilizer in paints.The purity of propylene glycol that meets USP (United States Pharmacopeia) standards is >99.5% The need for p…
ABSTRACT Monoethylene glycol (MEG) is a glycol compound with single bonds. MEG is used as an antifreeze in machinery, as a raw material for the production of polyethylene terephthalate, and as a heat exchange fluid. MEG production process is carried out by reacting the feed in the form of ethylene oxide with water and the obtained production capacity is 250,000 tons/year. The ethylene glycol p…
Propylene glycol or 1,2-propadienol is an organic compound which has low toxicity and good formulation properties. Propylene glycol can be used as a preservative or solvent in the food industry, softener or moisturizer in the cosmetic industry, drug formulas in the pharmaceutical industry, additives that function as viscosity and color stabilizers in the paint industry, and others. Application …
Palm oil industrial waste contains various dissolved compounds in the form of short fibers, hemicellulose, and their derivatives, protein, free organic acids, a mixture of minerals and organic pigments such as anthocyanins, carotenes, polyphenols, lignins and tannins. Organic compounds in this waste will cause problems such as increasing the value of TSS, TDS, COD which can pollute the env…
Wax Deposit is a problem that often occur in the Langgak field is a 20- 30% difference between the amount of fluid from the test results in the production well and in the gathering station (GS). The main purpose of this study is to predict wax deposits, wax model is a fluid size that is obtained from the calculation and analysis of energy transport, it is made to make it easier to measure t…

Student Worksheet Based are designed according to the Problem Posing model contens. The type of this research is research and development (R and D) with reference to the development process of 4-D. The subject of this research is student activities worksheets base…
LiFePO4 has been considered as a promising cathode material for Li-ion batteries due to its high specific capacity, long cycle stability, low toxicity, and abundant raw material (earth core consists of 80% Fe). However, the low intrinsic conductivity (10-9 S/cm) and lithium-ion diffusion (10-4−10-9) decrease their electrochemical properties and hindering their further commercial applicati…
Palm oil mill effluent continues to increase in line with the increase in palm oil production in Indonesia. Therefore, another alternative technology is needed, such as the continuous stirred plate column electrocoagulation method as an advanced technology in treating palm oil mill effluent. This research aims to design a continuous reactor for processing palm oil mill effluent by applying the …
ABSTRACT Water sources in peaty areas or swampy areas are generally shallow with brown water, high levels of humic acid, organic matter and iron. Rubber fruit shell is one of the organic wastes that has the potential to be used as an adsorbent because it contains quite a lot of lignin. This study aims to determine the effect of adsorbent mass and stirring rate in the adsorption process usi…
