Oil palm as a plant that produces palm oil and palm kernel is one of the favorite plantation crops which is a source of non-oil and gas foreign exchange for Indonesia. In Indonesia, the cooking oil most often used is palm cooking oil. This condition is caused by Indonesia being a palm oil producing country, this oil is also quite ideal in terms of price and availability. This feasibility study …
Oil palm (Elaeis Quinensis, Jacq) is a tropical plant belonging to the Palmae family and originating from West Africa. Processing palm oil fruit will produce crude palm oil (CPO or Crude Palm Oil) which is yellow and palm kernel oil (PKO or Palm Kernel Oil) which is colorless (clear). One of the components contained in CPO is palmitic acid with high composition, namely around 44%. Palmitic acid…
Vinyl chloride is generally produced as a material for making polymers, especially polyvinyl chloride (PVC). The aim of establishing a vinyl chloride factory is to increase domestic production capacity and build Indonesia's ability to become an exporter. Vinyl chloride is produced through a direct chlorination process with the main raw materials being ethylene and chlorine. This process tak…

As time goes by, population growth is increased rapidly in the Batang Kuranji Watershed area, followed by the need for natural resources and high land use which has an impact on land conversion or changes in land use, resulting in the potential for land erosion in the watershed area. Therefore, research was carried out to determine the rate of erosion and the level of erosion hazard that occurs…
Walking is a physical activity and is also the simplest mode of transportation. Walking is very effective because it can reach places that cannot be reached by motorized vehicles. Some students choose to live around campus so that access to campus can be reached easily and quickly. One option for students who are near campus is to walk. However, this is not supported by adequate pedestrian faci…
The use of clean water is a fundamental necessity for the population in Indonesia, where clean water is utilized for drinking, hydrology, irrigation, and various other purposes. Consequently, it plays a crucial role in the periodic infrastructure provision of clean water. One of the sources of water on Earth is derived from rainfall. In the planning of the development of existing water resource…
