Plasma is an electrical phenomenon that occurs when air (gas) fails to function as an insulator due to a high electric potential at the electrode (conductor) tips. This leads to ionization processes forming an electrical path (dielectric thread) connecting the two electrodes. Plasma can be utilized for various applications such as cutting, welding, and synthesis. The aim of this research is to …
Candlenut (Aleurites Moluccana) is a tropical plant that grows in the Euphorbiaceae family and has a natural distribution in tropical regions. Before being converted into graphene, candle nut shells undergo a carbonization process, producing charcoal as a raw material. Candlenut charcoal has a high carbon content, making it a suitable raw material for testing conversion to graphene. Graphene is…

The development and use of wireless technology is now well developed and massive. VANET (Vehicular Ad-Hoc Network) is a wireless technology installed on vehicles so that vehicles can communicate with other vehicles (V2V) or with infrastructure (V2I). Topology problems that change due to mobility and high speed in VANET can be overcome by using routing protocols. But the many types of wireless n…
One of the energies that can be utilized from the high intensity of sunlight in Indonesia is by maximizing the device for converting sunlight into electrical energy called solar panels. The amount of output power produced by solar panels is influenced by several environmental conditions where a solar panel is placed, such as temperature, intensity of sunlight, direction of sunlight and the spec…
Spices represent a natural wealth in Indonesia that must be preserved. Distinguishing between various types of spices poses a significant challenge for some individuals due to their visual similarities. The processing of packaged spices, minimal direct involvement in their processing, and a lifestyle inclined towards consuming fast food are factors contributing to a lack of knowledge regarding …
