A comparative study on energy production and consumption between Aceh, Indonesia and Castilla León, Spain has been conducted. Analysis was carried out on the statistical data such as population, GDP, energy production and energy consumption. Some…
In many affluent countries waste management is experiencing a fast transition from landfilling to sophisticated recycling and waste to energy plants. Thus, landfilling of waste becomes less important in these countries. The present paper discusses…
Effects of medium condition on spore production and spore viability of Trichoderma harzianum UPM 29 isolated from oil palm rhizosphere were studied. The carbon to nitrogen (CN) ratio and glucose concentration have significant effect on spore…
Membran polisulfon untuk pengolahan air telah dilakukan untuk mengurangi warna air dengan proses koagulasi dan tanpa proses koagulasi. Membran ultrafiltrasi polisulfone telah dikarakte-risasi dengan mengukur fluks, permeability (Lp), dan MWCO dengan…
Penelitian ini mengusulkan sebuah prototipe reaktor microbial fuel cell (MFC) tanpa membran beraliran kontinyu. Dinding Reaktor dibuat dari pipa PVC dan elektroda dari serat karbon. Mikroba yang ditambatkan di anoda bersumber dari larutan FloTank®.…
Flow distribution is often a problem in the operation of the packed bed reactor. The problem is often referred as flow maldistribution and formation of localized hot spot region. This research is generally aimed to predict fluid flow distribution in…
The esterification of free fatty acids (FFA) found in crude palm oil (CPO) off grade with methanol is a promising technique to convert FFA into valuable fatty acid methyl ester (FAME, biodiesel) and obtain a FFA-free oil that can be further…
Preparation of cellulose acetate (CA) membranes with ultrafiltration process had be done by phase inversion using dimethylformamide (DMF) as solvent. Poliethylene glycol (PEG) 1450 Da, as additive, was added with 10, 20, and 30% rasio of celluose…
The ability to produce potable water economically is the primary purpose of seawater desalination research. Reverse osmosis (RO) and multi-stage flash (MSF) cost more than potable water produced from fresh water resources. Therefore, this research…
Citric acid can be produced from pineapple waste by using fermentation process. This process is done in bubble column reactor with Aspergillus niger yeast. The objective of this research is to find the optimum conditions of initial pH and total sugar…
