In the animal feed industry, steam is used in pellet making machines. In this process, steam from the boiler is distributed to the pellet mill through the pipe. The purpose of this study is to observe the waste of electricity costs of operating a boiler by calculating heat loss in a distribution pipe. The method of assessing heat loss is done by calculating losses caused by heat loss in the boiler distribution. Then make a calculation application model based on the data obtained. From the data analyzed, the amount of heat lost in the non-insulating distribution pipe is 0.766 kJ/s with a loss of Rp 5.628,600 operating costs per month compared to heat loss in an isolated pipe condition of 0.047 kJ/s with losses which cost slightly more than Rp 368 190 / month. This heat loss calculation process is made on an android application by entering the calculation formula on the program and the data that has been obtained.

AbstractEarly 2013, high concentrations of aflatoxin M1 were found in the bulk milk of a few dairy farms in the Netherlands. These high concentrations were caused by aflatoxin B1 contaminated maize from Eastern Europe that was processed into compound feed, which was fed to dairy cows. Since the contamination was discovered in the downstream stages of the supply chain, multiple countries and parties were involved and recalls of the feed were necessary, resulting into financial losses. The aim of this study was to estimate the direct short-term financial losses related to the 2013 aflatoxin incident for the maize traders, the feed industry, and the dairy sector in the Netherlands. First, the sequence of events of the incident was retrieved. Then, a Monte Carlo simulation model was built to combine the scarce and uncertain data to estimate the direct financial losses for each stakeholder. The estimated total direct financial losses of this incident were estimated to be between 12 and 25 million euros. The largest share, about 60%, of the total losses was endured by the maize traders. About 39% of the total losses were for the feed industry, and less than 1% of the total losses were for the dairy sector. The financial losses estimated in this study should be interpreted cautiously due to limitations associated with the quality of the data used. Furthermore, this incident led to indirect long-term financial effects, identified but not estimated in this study.

Abstract Carotenoids represent large group of various natural pigments ensuring typical coloration of plants, microorganisms and several animals. It was confirmed by many studies, that consuming these biological active compounds has positive impact for human life. Therefore, they are applied in different industrial fields, such as pharmacy, cosmetic, food, and feed industry. Due to high demand for carotenoids we would like to discover new microorganisms overproducing carotenoids. We focused on yeasts of genus Rhodotorula sp. (forty isolates), that we screened according to growth and carotenoid production on Petri dishes and production media. After cultivation on Petri dishes we selected five strains (denoted as KF-4, KF-6, KF-24, KF-31, KF-104) with interesting pigment production and quick growth. The secondary screening on production media identified KF-104 as the best producer of carotenoid pigments with massive pigment accumulation (1.15 mg/g DCW) and yield (9.69 mg/L). The main carotenoid of KF-104 isolate was β-carotene (35.4 %) with the accumulation of 408.7 μg/g DCW and the yield of 3.4 mg/L. The rest were torularhodin, torulene and γ-carotene (62.7–79.0 %). Production of torularhodin in the cells was low (0.4 to 1.4 mg/L) as was its accumulation in cells (31.2–121.0 μg/g DCW). We continue the experimental analyses of these isolates in order understand differences in the content of individual pigments.

ABSTRAK                                                            Seiring dengan telah dilarangnya penggunaan antibiotic growth promotor (AGP) dalam pakan oleh pemerintah Indonesia, maka pencarian pengganti AGP mejadi penting saat ini. Imbuhan pakan fitogenik menjadi salah satu pengganti AGP potensial. Makalah ini ditulis untuk mengungkap peluang pengembangan imbuhan pakan fitogenik sebagai pengganti AGP dalam ransum ayam pedaging di Indonesia. Metode penulisan makalah dilakukan dengan beberapa tahapan. Tahapan pertama, tahap persiapan, dilakukan dengan mengumpulkan dan membaca jurnal, makalah prosiding, buku yang diperoleh dari hasil dari pencarian  pada internet. Dilanjutkan dengan memilih dan menentukan jurnal hasil penelitian, makalah ilmiah pada prosiding, buku terkait dengan topik yang sudah ditentukan. Tahapan ke dua, penyusunan outline makalah yang akan ditulis, dimana pada tahapan ini untuk menentukan skema berfikir penulis terkait dengan topik yang akan di bahas. Tahapan ke tiga, mengembangkan kerangka makalah dengan menggunakan literatur ilmiah, teori, hasil penelitian yang sudah diperoleh. Tahapan ke empat, pemeriksaan terhadap isi makalah yang sudah ditulis, baik secara substansi maupun redaksional. Berdasarkan studi pustaka yang dilakukan disimpulkan bahwa imbuhan pakan fitogenik dari berbagai jenis tanaman potensial digunakan sebagai pengganti AGP dalam pakan ayam pedaging. Kebutuhan akan daging ayam nasional yang semakin tinggi setiap tahunnya, menjadi peluang betapa besarnya pasar akan kebutuhan pengganti AGP di Indonesia. Sinergisme antara lembaga penelitian-perguruan tinggi dengan pelaku industri pakan dan imbuhan pakan menjadi penopang utama dalam pengembangan imbuhan pakan fitogenik di Indonesia.Kata Kunci: imbuhan pakan fitogenik, ayam pedagingABSTRACTKeywords: pytogenic feed additive, broiler chicken The use of antibiotic growth promoter (AGP) in feed has been banned by the Indonesian government. Therefore, the search for alternative AGP continues to be carried out. The addition of phytogenic is one of the potential alternatives because it has the same ability as AGP. This paper was written to reveal the opportunities for developing phytogenic feed additives as a substitute for antibiotics in broiler diet in Indonesia. The method of writing this paper was done in several stages. The first stage, the preparation, is done by searching and reading journals, proceedings, books obtained from the internet. The second method is the preparation of the outline of the paper to be written, to determine the author's thinking scheme related to the topic to be discussed. The third method is developing a framework of thought by using scientific literature obtained and read before. Fourth method is examination of the contents of papers that have been written, both substantially and editorially. Based on the literature study, it was concluded that the phytogenic feed additives from various types of plants should be considered as a substitute for AGP in broiler diet.  The need for national chicken meat which is getting higher every year becomes an opportunity for how big the market will be for AGP's replacement in Indonesia. Synergism between university-research institutions and feed industry is the main support in developing phytogenic feed additives in Indonesia.Keywords: pytogenic feed additive, broiler chicken
