As one of the products from soybean, soybean milk is widely known and appreciated by the public because of its benefits for health. Problems are often encountered in the processing of liquid soybean milk, such as short shelf life of it and easy to loss of quality. One alternative treatment that can extend the shelf life is to turn it into an instant soybean milk powder by drying method. Making instant soybean milk powder in this study used a foam-mat drying method. The purpose of this research was to study the application of foam-mat drying method on the characteristic (quality) of instan soybean milk powder produced. The results showed that the best treatment according to the drying time parameters was at 10% dextrin and 1% Tween 80. Physical characteristics of instant soybean milk powder had the highest yield values (16.10%) at a drying temperature of 60°C, the value of lightness (L) about 84.2; value of redness (a) about 1.3; yellowish value (b) about 24,and water absorption (DSA) of 1.68 mL/g. Chemical analysis resulted that water content of 3.05% at the drying temperature of 70°C, while the highest protein content at the drying temperature of 60°C amounted to 17.34% and the highest fat content about 11.36% at drying temperature of 50°C.

Panti District is the second-largest coffee plantation in Jember Regency, with an area of 160.71 𝑘𝑚2 or 4.88% of the total area of Jember Regency with an average height of 50-1,340 meters above sea level. With this average height, one of the coffee plants planted was Arabica coffee. Based on the number of existing coffee plantations, the processing of wet coffee produced a lot of liquid and solid waste. Coffee fruit waste in the form of flesh physical composition reached 48%, consisted of 42% fruit skin and 6% seed skin. The utilization of coffee waste is still not optimal. One effort to reduce coffee waste was by applying cleaner production. The method used to determine this priority of production application at Maju Mapan Coffee Agroindustry is AHP (Analytical Hierarchy Process) method, technical feasibility, and financial feasibility analysis. From mass balance analysis, the results showed that from 1 ton of red coffee berry and 3146.63 liters of water as production input produced 40% of coffee beans, 38.4% solid waste, and 2946 liters of wastewater. The wastewater characteristics exceeded the threshold standard of wastewater quality stipulated by the Decree of the Governor of East Java Number 45 of 2002. On the other side, solid waste most unsettled the surrounding community because every day, it created a foul odor and invited many insects. Clean production priority in Maju Mapan Agroindustry using AHP, technical feasibility, and financial feasibility analysis obtained are manufacturing the cascara tea, compost block, and animal feed. AHP analysis results using the application of expert choice assessment in an alternative hierarchy of the ten experts showed that making cascara tea was chosen as the main priority in the utilization of waste from Arabica coffee processing in Maju Mapan Agroindustry.

In the storage processes strawberries experiencesdetrimental changes so that they can affect the quality of fruit. This change can be detected by testing the physical and chemical properties in particular shelf life period. In generally the measurement of physical and chemical properties are done manually andcausing damage to the object being observed (destructive method). Based on description above, it is necessary to measure non-destructive method using digital image processing. This study aimed to identify the relationship between physical and chemical propertiesvariables and image quality variables (area, height, widht, perimeter red index andblue index) based on 0, 1, and 2 days shelf life using an image processing program. The sample used in this study were 155 pieces strawberry from A quality. The strawberry image was taken by using a CCD camerathen extracted using SharpDevelop 4.2 software. Physical and chemical properties of the strawberry were measured using digital O'hauss pioneer scales, penetrometer, refractometer and pH meter to obtain data on weight, hardness, total dissolved solids and acidity (pH). Correlation test results indicated from strong to very strong relationship between physical and chemical properties variablesand image quality variables with a range of correlation coefficient values from 0,725 to 1,000. Image quality variables that could be used as input for estimating shelf life was blue index, with validation test resulted 87,7%total accuracy.

The water content in fresh turmeric is quite high so it is easily damaged. For this reason, this research is necessary as an effort to handle post-harvest which will increase the shelf life of turmeric. The purposes of this study were to determine the physical properties of turmeric and to determine the effect of differences in drying temperature and duration of flouring on the physical characteristics of turmeric powder. The procedure was started with cleaning and size reduction, drying at temperatures of 60, 70, and 80°C, flouring for 1, 3, and 5 minutes, sifting with no. mesh 60, and measurement of physical properties. Results showed that the lowest water content of turmeric flour dried on 80°C and the 1-minute flouring time was 8.11%. Based on the color analysis test, the drying temperature of 60°C and the time of flouring is 5 minutes with an L (lightness) value of 64.53, a value of 12.47, and b of 51.46. The highest bulk density value was 0,42 g/cm³, obtained from the treatment with a temperature of 60°C and a flouring duration of 3 minutes. The smallest angle of repose value was obtained from a drying temperature of 80°C with a flouring time of 1 minute, namely 42.96°. The highest oil absorption value was obtained from the 80°C temperature treatment and 1-minute flouring time, which was 1.74 mL/g. The most significant water absorption was obtained from the 80°C temperature treatment with 3 minutes of flouring, which was 4.82 mL/g. Based on the analysis of the ANOVA test in this study, the physical characteristics of turmeric powder that affected by drying temperature were only water content and in the correlation test it was found that the observed variables that correlated with temperature were moisture content, bulk density, angle of repose, oil absorption.

Wulan Coffee Agroindustry is one of agroindustries in region of Bondowoso that applies the semi-wet method and it has potential to be certified by Geographical Indications (IG). The wastes of arabica coffee processing at Wulan Coffee Agroindustry is directly thrown to the surrounding environment without being repaired first, because of that, it is worried that can affect human health and the environment. Therefore, further treatment is necessary to reduce the impact of waste pollutions and improve the efficiency of processing by using cleaner production technology. This study aimed to examine the priority alternative of cleaner production at Wulan Coffee Agroindustry. The method used in this study is descriptive quantitative with mass balance analysis, energy balance analysis, feasibility analysis, and priority analysis of cleaner production application using the method of AHP (Analytical Hierarchy Process). The waste management alternative in the Wulan Coffee Agroindustry were coffee pulp waste processing i.e. cascara tea, briquettes, and animal feed, also the waste water of coffee processing as biogas. The cleaner production applied in the Wulan Coffee Agroindustry had alternatives likes coffee green bean, coffee powder, and cascara tea. It was the priority scale to be applied because technically factor and financial factor consist of NPV, IRR, B/C ratio, and PBP were Rp 1.211.88.689; 49%; 6.27, and 0.76 or 9 month. Therefore, the result of AHP analysis using expert choice application showed that cascara tea was the priority alternative of cleaner production application with value of 15,4.
