The waste problem continues to be a complex issue. On the one hand, the use of plastic still cannot be abandoned by humans, but on the other hand the waste produced is very difficult to decompose. In Indonesia, in 2015 the amount of waste reached 64 million tons / year. Palm fiber is one of the materials that can be used as composite fiber. In this study, a research will be conducted on the manufacture of paving blocks made from HDPE plastic combined with variations of 0%, 1%, 2% and 3% palm fiber. Plastic waste is melted and put into a mold and then combined with palm fiber. From the test results, the highest compressive strength (2% fiber variation) was 45.91 kg/cm2 and the average compressive strength was 45.28 kg/cm2. This compressive strength is under the minimum compressive strength standard of SNI   Permasalahan sampah masih terus menjadi isu kompleks.

Threats Related to Light Pollution and Ways to Reduce it The natural environment can be exposed to many different types of pollution. The most frequently mentioned are air, water, soil and radioactive contamination. On the other hand, light pollution is mentioned much less frequently. Light pollution only applies to light from artificial sources. It turns out that light, in addition to its undisputable advantages and colossal significance for life, in some cases can be associated with significant threats. The purpose and premise of this publication is to show that light pollution involves a considerable threat to the natural environment, including animals and humans. However, there are ways to effectively limit this phenomenon. The paper discusses the concept of light pollution, its sources, forms and division. Particular attention has been devoted to the characterisation of the threats that it brings with regard to the natural environment, including humans. The publication also reveals examples of actions to reduce this harmful phenomenon. The article has been created using book materials, magazines, as well as information available online. The research method used in the publication is existing data analysis and literary criticism. The test results verify the premise positively.

The spread of marine plastic litter is increasing and dangerous for habitats and marine living such as the discovery of plastic in fish, sea turtles, whale mammals and even seabirds. To suppress and reduce plastic waste in the sea, one of them is to strengthen the role of law both international, regional and national law. The research objective is to analyze international, regional and national law in the perspective of international law sources to deal with marine plastic litter. The research method in this study is an analytical description based on a normative juridical approach. The results of the study show that international law in the perspective of international law sources has attempted to regulate plastic waste in the sea even though it is limited. Handling of marine plastic litter does not yet have comprehensive regulations or regulated separately. In the other hand, national law becomes important in handling at the respective jurisdiction boundaries, although limited in the application of rules due to the existence of national jurisdiction. Provisional conclusions show that international law still has an important role to play especially in relation to marine plastic litter that crosses national borders or outside national jurisdiction.

Plastic waste is a non-biodegradable waste which cannot decompose and this creates water, land pollution and air pollution. Also, while we burn the plastic waste in Dumping Ground, the percentage of plastic waste is increasing rapidly. It is estimated that the plastic waste will double after a decade as we use hundred grades of plastic in our daily life. We can recycle, reuse the plastic waste. As a civil engineer we have to innovate something new related to this, which is a boon for civil engineering. So, here we try to do something innovative as reuse of plastic waste for the production of floor tiles. The present investigation at manufacturing Floor tiles using waste plastic in different properties with Fly ash, without use of cement and comparing it with the normal cement tiles. To evaluate different physical and mechanical properties, tests like water absorption test, transverse resistance, resistance of impact and abrasion resistance tests were carried out as per IS specifications on the plastic tile and these test results were compared with normal cement tiles. The results obtained have shown better result compared to normal tile. As per this study it can considered to use plastic waste as a binding material instead of cement in manufacture of floor tiles. However, we generally use two to three types of polymers to make tiles,” Paras explains. High-density polyethene (HDPE), Polypropylene (PP), and sometimes Low-density Polyethylene (LDPE). “We mix 15 per cent of fillers while recycling the plastics, to make it more tensile and durable.

Previous research studies have indicated that using fibres to improve crack resistance and applying expansive agent (EA) to compensate shrinkage are both effective methods to mitigate shrinkage cracking of concrete, and the additions of both fibres and EA can enhance the other performance attributes of concrete. In this study, an EA was added to fibre reinforced concrete (FRC) to produce concrete mixes with various water/binder (W/B) ratios, steel fibre (SF) contents and EA contents for testing of their workability and compressive properties. The test results showed that adding EA would slightly increase the superplasticiser (SP) demand and decrease the compressive strength, Young’s modulus and Poisson’s ratio, but significantly improve the toughness and specific toughness of the steel FRC produced. Such improvement in toughness may be attributed to the pre-stress of the concrete matrix and the confinement effect of the SFs due to the expansion of the concrete and the restraint of the SFs against such expansion.

Testing repeat electronic scales with non-automatic scales technical requirements so far is fairly long if not using a calculator or computer. The aim of this research is to compare the repeatability testing method of electronic scales using methods according to the technical requirements of non-automatic scales and the Australian NMI method, both of which refer to OIML R76 in determining the validity or cancellation of electronic scales repeatability testing. This research method is done through repeat testing on 3 samples of electronic scales, then on each electronic scale 2 test methods are performed. The conclusion is that the electronic scales repeatability testing uses the non-automatic scales technical requirements method and the Australian NMI method has some differences although both refer to OIML R76. These differences include several points, namely the charge used, the method of adding additions, the formula for determining electronic scales, and different test results. The Australian NMI method is deemed to make it easier and more time efficient compared to the non-automatic weighing technical requirements method.

Abstract A typical qualitative microbiological method performance (collaborative) study gathers a data set of responses about a test for the presence or absence of a target microbe. We developed 2 models that estimate false-positive and false-negative rates. One model assumes a constant probability that the tests will indicate the target microbe is present for any positive concentration in the test portion. The other model assumes that this probability follows a logistic curve. Test results from several method performance studies illustrate these estimates.

In recent years, efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions have continued worldwide. In the construction industry, a large amount of CO2 is generated during the production of Portland cement, and various studies are being conducted to reduce the amount of cement and enable the use of cement substitutes. Ferronickel slag is a by-product generated by melting materials such as nickel ore and bituminous coal, which are used as raw materials to produce ferronickel at high temperatures. In this study, we investigated the fluidity, microhydration heat, compressive strength, drying shrinkage, and carbonation characteristics of a ternary cement mortar including ferronickel-slag powder and fly ash. According to the test results, the microhydration heat of the FA20FN00 sample was slightly higher than that of the FA00FN20 sample. The 28-day compressive strength of the FA20FN00 mix was approximately 39.6 MPa, which was higher than that of the other samples, whereas the compressive strength of the FA05FN15 mix including 15% of ferronickel-slag powder was approximately 11.6% lower than that of the FA20FN00 mix. The drying shrinkage of the FA20FN00 sample without ferronickel-slag powder was the highest after 56 days, whereas the FA00FN20 sample without fly ash showed the lowest shrinkage compared to the other mixes.
