The raw materials used in this study are empty fruit bunches (EFB) and used motor vehicle tires using a CaO catalyst. The purposes of th…
ABSTRACT Scarcity of fuel oil (BBM) makes a lot of research leading to the search for alternative fuels that come from renewable natural resources. One of the raw materials that has the potential to be converted into bioethanol is oil palm midreb. The research aims to determine the effect of H2SO4 concentration on the hydrolysis process to produce glucose and to determine the optimum time …
ABSTRACT Microalgae is one type of raw material that is potentially used as bioethanol, because it has the ability to grow in a relatively short time, can be propagated in a limited area, and some types of microalgae have high carbohydrate content. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of variations in H2SO4 concentration on the glucose produced and determine the effect of …
Light geopolymers are the result of activation of SiO2 and Al2O3 compounds on precursors which are reacted with a high concentration of alkaline activator solution in the presence of light aggregates. The addition of lightweight aggregates can reduce the high density of geopolymers and can utilize fly ash waste from industrial by products. The aim of this research is to make light geopolymer ba…
The membrane is defined as a selective and semipermeable thin coating that sits between two phases, namely the bait phase and the permeate phase. The purpose of this research is the synthesis of cellulose acetate from pineapple leaves for membrane making raw materials, making the cellulose acetate membrane with a variation of PEG additive composition and operation pressure, studying the eff…
ABSTRACT Membrane is a permeable or semi-permeable phase, often a thin polymeric solid, which restricts the motion of certain species. Due to its energy-saving and costeffective, membrane technology has become an indispensable platform technology that can be developed to support industrial wastewater treatment such as the pulp and paper industry. Membranes can be made from polymeric materi…
ABSTRACT Bioethanol is a renewable alternative energy source that can be used as an alternative fuel. One material that has potential as bioethanol feedstock is sago solid waste, which is the solid waste of sago industry that has not been optimally. The content of cellulose in sago solid waste can be converted into bioethanol by using simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF) pr…
ABSTRACT Currently, Indonesian is still relies on non-renewable energy sources (fossil). One of alternative to replace fossil fuel is with bioenergy such as bioethanol. Bioethanol can be produced from lignocellulose biomass such as sugarcane bagasse. Sugarcane bagasse is lignocellulose biomass with 39,26% cellulose, 7,49% hemicellulose, and 23,48% lignin. To take cellulose contained in su…
ABSTRACT Geopolymer is an inorganic polymer material composed of Si and Al atoms arranged in a 3-dimensional network (Si-O-Al) synthesized from aluminosilicate with an alkaline activator solvent. The use of this geopolymer can be used as a material for making lightweight concrete types of cellular lightweight geopolymer (CLG) which can be used as a construction wall for building blocks and…
ABSTRACT Indonesia is the largest producer of crude palm oil (CPO), followed by Malaysia and Thailand. The area of Indonesian palm oil plantations produces palm kernel oil (PKO) and palm kernel cake (PKC) 8,573,886 tons / year. BIS has lignocellulose content, lignocellulosic structure can be converted to glucose and has the potential to become bioethanol which can meet Indonesia's energy n…
