MSMEs Cassava Chips Maju Jaya in the oil draining process still use conventional methods. This causes the oil cannot be drained optimally with a shelf life of only 1-2 weeks. The implementation of this program aims to disseminate oil draining machine technology. This program is carried out with the stages of partner observation, manufacturing and testing of oil draining machines, and training and mentoring in the use of oil draining machines. The dimensions of the oil draining machine are 600 mm x 430 mm x 560 mm, with a capacity of 10 kg per draining procedure. The motor used is an AC electric motor with a power of HP. The oil drainer's outside and interior bodies are constructed from 304 stainless steel plate and vortexed stainless steel. This helps to make the oil draining procedure easier and quicker. The oil draining process is done by inserting cassava chips into the machine for 15 minutes until the oil content is reduced. From the test, the shelf life of the product is increased to 2 months. This can make a positive contribution to the quality of MSME Maju Jaya products.
Activated Carbon (AC) and Clitoria Ternatea Powder (CTP) were used as photocatalysts to produce hydrogen gas from water. Photocatalysts were characterized by SEM-EDX and FTIR. Photocatalysis was carried out for 1 hour using 300 W halogen blue light. The resulting gas was measured in ppm using the MQ 8 gas detector and converted into μmol. In photocatalysis, the various ratios of AC and CTP affect the molecular dynamic energy. The molecular dynamics energy was estimated with Hyperchem software. At the case of constant AC while increasing the number of CTP, the molecular dynamics energy increases from 524,143 kcal/mol to 801,488 kcal/mol. Whereas in the case of constant CTP while increasing the number of AC, the molecular dynamics energy only slightly increase from 524,143 kcal mol−1 to 541,527 kcal mol−1. Molecular dynamic energy in both cases is directly proportional to the hydrogen gas production in the first case, increasing CTP the hydrogen production reaches 2635 µmol g−1 h−1. Whereas in the second case, increasing AC, the hydrogen production tends to be constant. These results indicate the AC will play an optimal role as catalyst support when most of its defects are filled with CTP the defective grapheme in AC boosts the behaviour of electrons in the aromatic ring of CTP. In the future, it will be a step forward for the production of hydrogen gas in an environmentally friendly way.
MSMEs Dedy's Babies Wear, in its production process, still uses conventional sewing machines, and it causes the production of baby hats and shoes to be limited. Within a month, Dedy's Babies Wear MSMEs could only produce 2400 sets of baby hats and shoes with the help of 5 workers. A group of baby hats and shoes sells for IDR 10,000. In addition, the product marketing process is only limited to local coverages. As a result, market demand is unstable every month. This community service program aims to overcome the partners' main problems (the low production capacity and limited marketing process). This program is carried out with the stages of observation, training, and assistance in sewing with overlocking machines, as well as digital product marketing assistance through the e-commerce platform. From the evaluation, the production of MSMEs capacity has doubled. In addition, customer orders through e-commerce have become a potential source of income for partners.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
