Oil Fuel

Palm oil fuel ash (POFA) is solid waste from palm oil industries discarded after burning of shell, fiber, kernel and empty fruit bunches to heat boiler and generate electricity. A standard porcelain consisting of clay, feldspar and quartz is produced by sintering at temperature between 1300 °C to 1400 °C for toughness and translucency. This research developed a prediction model for optimum physical and mechanical properties of porcelain by addition of Fe2O3 at 5 wt.%. Quartz was replaced with POFA powder at 15 wt.% and Fe2O3 was also added at 5 wt.% of POFA mixed with others porcelain composition. Then the powder was dry pressed into pellet at 91 MPa and the samples were sintered at 1150 °C. The bulk density, compressive strength and Vickers microhardness were found to increase by addition of Fe2O3 at 5 wt.%. Prediction model was developed and from the predicted values it is revealed that, the model is efficient and good for the purpose of this research.

Partial Cement Replacement

Cement brick is an essential construction component, which uses cement as the primary binder. The cement industry was identified as the major contributor to carbon dioxide emission, which is a greenhouse gas. The application of agro-industrial waste as partial cement replacement can reduce the negative impacts on the environment. In this study, the palm oil wastes, namely Palm Oil Clinker Powder (POCP) and Palm Oil Boiler Ash (POBA), were used as partial cement replacement. A total of 60 specimens were prepared with 0%, 10%, 20%, and 30% cement replacement by POCP and POBA. The physical and mechanical properties of bricks, such as density, water absorption, voids, and compressive strength, were investigated. The results show that the brick with 20% CP and BA could be used as a severe weathering brick.

The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of PVAc adhesive composition on the physical and mechanical properties of the composite boards of palm oil stems and determine the best test example from a technical and economic point of view. This research will be carried out at the Banjarbaru Forestry Faculty Workshop. Research time ± 3. There are 3 levels (levels) of the PVAc adhesive composition tested, namely 40%, 45%, and 50%. The parameters of the composite board properties studied were physical properties, including: Moisture content and density, as well as the mechanical properties that fracture strength (MoR) and modulus of elasticity (MOE). The results showed that the physical and mechanical properties of composite boards were strongly influenced by the adhesive composition, the more the adhesive composition is used, the better the composite board properties, especially in terms of water content and MoR, where the results show that the water content is decreasing and the MoR is increasing. Nevertheless the use of a 40% adhesive composition has been able to produce a composite board that can meet SNI standards No. 03-2105 2006. Properties of palm oil stem waste composite boards made with PVAc adhesive (Crosslink X-PVAc) moisture content ranged from 9.49% - 13.07%, density 0.494 - 0.559 gr / cm³, and MoR 20.613 - 22.483 kg / cm².Tujuan penelitian untuk mengetahui pengaruh komposisi perekat PVAc terhadap sifat fisis dan mekanis papan komposit dari batang kelapa sawit dan menentukan contoh uji yang terbaik dari segi teknis. Penelitian ini dilaksanakan di Workshop Fakultas Kehutanan Banjarbaru. Waktu penelitian ±3.  Ada 3 taraf (level) dari perlakuan komposisi perekat PVAc yang diuji cobakan, yaitu 40%, 45%, dan 50%. Adapun parameter sifat papan komposit yang diteliti adalah sifat fisis, meliputi: Kadar air dan kerapatan, serta sifat mekanisya itu keteguhan patah (MoR) dan keteguhan lentur (MOE). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa sifat fisis dan mekanis papan komposit sangat dipengaruhi oleh komposisi perekat, semakin bertambah komposisi perekat yang digunakan maka sifat papan komposit semakin baik, terutama ditinjau dari kadar air dan  MoR, dimana hasil menunjukkan bahwa kadar air semakin berkurang dan MoR makin meningkat. Meskipun demikian penggunaan  komposisi  perekat 40% sudah dapat menghasilkan papan komposit yang dapat memenihi standar SNI no 03-2105 2006. Sifat papan komposit limbah batang kelapa sawit yang dibuat dengan perekat PVAc (Crosslink X-PVAc) kadar air berkisar 9,49% – 13,07%, Kerapatan 0,494 - 0.559 gr/cm³, dan MoR 20.613 – 22.483 kg/cm².

The suitability of bacteria application as fillers to reinforce calcium chloride cured sodium alginate film was investigated through the determination of the physical, morphological and mechanical properties of composite films. There were six species of bacteria isolated from palm oil mill effluent sample. The bacteria sample selected for filler reinforcement has a sub-micron diameter of 0.83 ± 0.13 µm. The growth curve of selected bacteria revealed that four days of broth culture produced the maximum bacteria mass. The composite films were produced with reinforcement of 0.1 g, 0.2 g, 0.3 g and 0.4 g of bacteria respectively. Overall, the increment of bacteria mass resulted in the production of yellowish composite films with improved morphological, physical and mechanical properties. The results revealed that the composite films reinforced with 0.3 g and 0.4 g of bacteria appeared to have less curling on the surface of the film. The water absorption properties of the films were initially 140.74% and remained constant at an approximate of 200% after the reinforcement. The tensile strength properties showed a total increment of approximately 22.70% (from 36.10 ± 1.94 MPa to 44.29 ± 0.60 MPa). Based on the results, bacteria fillers were not able to enhance the elongation properties because only about 0.6% of overall increment was observed which was considered insignificant. It was concluded that the bacteria biomass has the potential to be used as fillers to reinforce calcium chloride cured sodium alginate film.
