The need for pectin in Indonesia is inscreasing every year. Indonesia relies on pectin import to fulfill domestic pectin needs. So it is necessary to search for sources of raw materials that contain pectin, one of which is banana peel waste. Pectin in banana peels can be extracted using acid solvents. This study aims to determine the effect of the ratio of banana peel powder and solvents (1:40, 1:50, and 1:60) to the yield and quality of pectin extracted. The acid solvent used was 5% citric acid, and the extraction was conditioned at 90 °C for 120 minutes. Pectin which has been extracted from banana peels is in powdered form, brownish, and odorless. The results showed that the optimum solvent/solid ratio was 1:50 with a quantity of yield, equivalent weight, methoxyl content, galacturonic acid content, and esterification degree were 10,68%, 958 mg, 3,54%, 196% and 14,84% respecively. FTIR analysis indicated that pectin from banana peels extract had characteristic near to comercial pectin. Keyword: pectin extraction, ratio peel powder and solvents, citric acid volume Kebutuhan pektin di Indonesia cenderung meningkat di setiap tahun dan lebih mengandalkan pektin impor untuk memenuhi kebutuhan pektin dalam negeri. Oleh karena itu perlu dilakukan pencarian sumber bahan baku yang memiliki kandungan pektin, diantaranya adalah kulit pisang. Pektin dalam kulit pisang dapat diekstrak menggunakan pelarut asam. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh volume asam yang ditambahkan pada serbuk kulit pisang raja nangka dengan rasio 1:40, 1:50, dan 1:60. Pelarut asam yang digunakan adalah asam sitrat 7% dengan suhu estraksi 90 °C dan lama waktu ekstraksi 120 menit. Pektin yang telah diekstrak dari kulit buah pisang ini berbentuk serbuk, berwarna kecoklatan, dan tidak berbau. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa rasio bahan/pelarut adalah 1:50 dengan hasil rendemen, berat ekivalen, kadar metoksil, kadar galakturonat, dan derajat esterifikasi berturut-turut adalah 10,68%, 958 mg, 3,54%, 196% dan 14,84%. Analisis dengan FTIR menunjukkan bahwa bilangan gelombang yang muncul pada pektin dari kulit pisang ini memiliki karakteristik yang sama dengan pektin komersial. Kata kunci: ekstraksi pektin, volume asam sitrat, rasio bahan dan pelarut

Banana peels can be used as raw material for biodegradable plastic film because the banana peels was consists of starch. Starch was derived from banana peels would be rapidly changing color or browning. Browning was prevented by the addition of citric acid during the process of starch extraction from banana peels. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of citric acid on mechanical properties and capabilities degradation of starch biodegradable film made from this starch (film plastik pati kulit pisang FPKP). FPKP was made with banana peel starch (pati kulit pisang PKP) as raw materials, with the addition of glycerol as a plasticizer, and both CaCO3 and CMC as filler, whereas the PKP was obtained by simple extraction methods with or without the addition of citric acid. Glycerol concentration was varied from 20% w/w to 60% w/w, while CaCO3 and CMC were added in a fixed amount. The results was showed that the addition of citric acid affects the color of a PKP produced. The addition of citric acid can enhance the tensile strength of FPKP, up to 4,202 MPa for FPKP with CaCO3 filler and 4.032 MPa for FPKP with CMC filler. For biodegrability of FPKP, the affect of citric acid apply vice versa.

Currently, chemical wastes recycling into valuable secondary products poses a pressing challenge. During phosphoric acid production from apatite raw materials, large-tonnage phosphogypsum wastes are formed, resulting in ecosystem dysfunction. Besides, such wastes occupy significant production areas. Calcium sulfate is the main component of phosphogypsum. The paper addresses the possibility of phosphogypsum reduction to calcium sulfide, which has the capacity for luminescence under UV-light. Charcoal, sucrose, and citric acid were used as reducing agents. The obtained inorganic luminescent dyes were examined using X-ray phase analysis, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and electron probe microanalysis (EPMA). It was found that, in the presence of charcoal, the process is accompanied by an uneven distribution of calcium sulfide over the volume of the system and, as a consequence, an uneven glow of the sample. The use of citric acid and sucrose as reducing agents results in the synthesis of samples with a uniform glow. The efficiency of the calcium sulfate conversion to calcium sulfide is 51–58%. A mechanism of calcium sulfate reduction is proposed. The obtained results can serve as a basis for the development of a technology for the recycling of large-tonnage phosphoric acid production wastes into cheap and much-needed inorganic luminescent dyes.

Everyday human life cannot be separated from plastic. Almost all objects that are around us are made of plastic. In general, plastics are non-biodegradable, causing environmental problems caused by the increased volume of plastic waste. One way to overcome this is by recycling existing plastic waste. But the use of recycled plastics is very limited and considered inefficient because the process is more difficult and processing is more expensive than buying new plastic raw materials. Another alternative is to use bioplastics or biodegradable plastic. This plastic is more environmentally friendly because it is biodegradable or easily decomposed by microorganisms. Basically, bioplastics can be made from vegetable starches. In this study we will use starch extracted from banana peel waste as a base material for making bioplastics. In this research, glycerin which is used as a bioplastic adhesive or plasticizer will be used. Whether or not bioplastics depend on the resistance to water, the attractiveness of the bioplastics, the ability of the plastic to be decomposed by microorganisms. From this research, it is expected to produce bioplastics with high water resistance and high tensile strength and easy to decompose microorganisms.

AbstractDelafossite CuYO2 and Ca doped CuYO2 were prepared by thermal decomposition of a metal-citric acid complex. The starting solution consisted of Cu acetate, Y acetate and Ca acetate as the raw materials. Citric acid was used as the chelating agent, and acetic acid and distilled water were mixed as a solvent. The starting solutions were heated at 723 K for 5 h after drying at 353 K. The obtained powders were amorphous and single phase of orthorhombic Cu2Y2O5 was obtained by heat-treated the amorphous powder at a temperature range between 1073 and 1373 K for 3 h in air. Furthermore, Heat-treating the obtained orthorhombic Cu2Y2O5 at above 1373 K in air caused it to decompose into Y2O3, CuO and Cu2O. On the other hand, the sample powder prepared from a starting solution without citric acid, i.e., single phase of orthorhombic Cu2Y2O5 could not be obtained under the same synthesis conditions as that for a solution with citric acid. We were able to obtain delafossite CuYO2 and Ca doped CuYO2 from orthorhombic Cu2Y2O5 under a low O2 pressure atmosphere at above 1223 K. The obtained delafossite CuYO2 composed hexagonal and rhombohedral phases. The color of the CuYO2 powder was light brown and that of Ca-doped CuYO2 was light green. Diffraction peaks in the XRD pattern were slightly shifted by doping Ca for CuYO2, and these peaks shifted toward to a high diffraction angle with an increasing amount of doped Ca. From these results, we concluded that Ca doped delafossite CuYO2 could be obtained by thermal decomposition of a metal-citric acid complex.
