Abstract Low-pressure chemical vapor deposition (LPCVD) is the most efficient method to synthesize large-scale, high-quality graphene for many potential applications such as flexible electronics, solar cells, and separation membranes. The quality of LPCVD is affected by process variables including methane/hydrogen (CH4/H2) ratio, time, pressure, temperature, and cooling rate. The cooling rate has been recognized as one of the most important process variables affecting the amount of carbon source, nucleation, reaction time, and thus the quality of the LPCVD. In this research, we investigate the effect of cooling rate on the quality of graphene synthesize by changing the cooling rate and the gas feeding time. Graphene coverage is measured by Raman mapping. It is found that fast cooling rate leads to decreased carbon source reaction time, which in turn results in higher coverage by monolayer graphene. The temperature-dependent gas feeding time corresponding to different cooling rates can be used to properly supply the carbon source onto the copper surface, also leading to a higher graphene coverage.

Most cocoa beans in Indonesia are traditionally produced by farmers using non fermented and sun drying method. Thequality of cocoa beans produced by farmer in yogyakarta may be improved by the fermentation method. However, it needsoptimization for best fermentation process. The aims of the study was to improve quality of cocoa bans by fermentation ofsun dried cocoa beans. The characteric fermented cocoa beans was determined by maesuring changes pH, acidity andfermentation indexs of cocoa beans during fermentation. This study used preconditioned cocoa beans to resamble obtainfrom the farmer. Preconditioning was done in order to get 15% mouisture content of pulp at same level as moisture contentof pulp from traditional process. Before fermentation, therefor sun dried cocoa beans was rehydrated to obtain a moisturecontent of pulp similiar to fresh beans pulp, and then fermentation was conducted for 120 hours. Changes in acidity andfermentation indexs of cocoa beans during fermentation were measured. The fermentation process used 3 level treatmenti.e. control (without inoculum), mixed culture of microbies added at the begining fermentation. The result show all cocoabeans acidity increase during fermentation from 4,48% to 6,45% for control, 4,64% to 6,39% for addition of inoculum atbegining of fermentation and from 4,45% to 6,59% for addition of inoculum at the begining and midle of fermentation andfermentation indexs of cocoa beans increase for all level of inoculum addition i.e. 0,31 to 0,88 for control, 0,32 to 0,99 foraddition of inoculum at the beginning fermentation and 0,33 to 1,03 for addition of inoculum at the beginning and midle offermentation. The study indicated that addition of mix culture microbies in fermetation improved the quality of cocoabeans that characterized by pH, acidity and fermentation indexs of cocoa beans.

Long-term use of inorganic fertilizers on leafy vegetables can increase soil acidity, harmful to the environment and leaving bad effects on human health. Organic fertilizer application is one of the safer alternatives with many beneficial effects by supplying nutrients for plant growth, environmental-friendly and producing an optimum quality of vegetables. Different organic amendment such as vermicompost, biochar and microbial compost has different effect on plant growth performance since good bacteria could improve structure of the soil and nutrient absorption. Therefore, this study aims to evaluate the effects of organic fertilizer on the growth performance and postharvest quality. The experimental design during planting was conducted in randomized completely block design with a factorial arrangement of treatmentswhile for postharvest quality study was conducted in completely randomized design. Organic fertilizer of vermicompost (110 g/plant), biochar (100 g/plant), microbial compost (80 g/plant) and chicken manure (37.5 g/plant) were treated on Pak choy two times on day 10 and day 24 after transplant. This research revealed the plant growth including plant height, leaf number and leaf length of Pak choy in all treatments were increased as growing stage increased. However, at the end of growing stage, microbial compost and vermicompost resulted in the highest of growth characteristics. In terms of postharvest quality, microbial compost showed the highest fresh weight and premium quality. This study proved that microbial compost at 80 g/plant exhibited optimum growth performance and the best postharvest quality of Pak choy.
