“…Umumnya kemasan styrofoam hanya digunakan sekali pakai, selanjutnya dibuang hingga sering menimbulkan tumpukan sampah yang banyak karena styrofoam tidak bisa terdegradasi. Pembakaran limbah styrofoam tidak memberikan solusi dalam mengurangi limbah, tetapi justru menimbulkan masalah lain karena hasil pembakaran menimbulkan gas berbahaya seperti styrene, polyaromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), hydrochlorofluorocarbon (HCFC), dan karbon monoksida (Fikri & Veronica, 2018). Pada proses produksi styrofoam itu sendiri akan dihasilkan limbah yang tidak sedikit, sehingga dikategorikan sebagai penghasil limbah berbahaya kelima terbesar di dunia oleh EPA (Enviromental Protection Agency) USA.…”

Biodegradable foam is a packaging material intended as a substitute for styrofoam. Materials used in this study were mahuli banana (Musa acuminata) stem and nagara tubers (Ipomoea batatas L) with aim to find out the best composition material for the best physical characteristics of biodegradable foam. Prior to use in the process of making biodegradable foam, mahuli banana stem and nagara tuber were firstly pulverized to a size of 100 mesh. Then, the mahuli banana stem and nagara tubers powders were mixed with compositions of 60:40, 70:30, and 80:20; and as controls pure material was utilized. Another treatment was the addition of PVA (polyvinyl alcohol) as much as 10%v/v and no addition of PVA (UNPVA). The process of making biodegradable foam began with plasticizing on a hotplate at 150oC for 3 minutes, thermopressing, and drying in a microwave. The biodegradable foam (bio-foam) characteristics were tested with DSC and SEM as well as for its hardness and biodegradation. Based on the results of hardness test, DSC, SEM and biodegradation, the best physical characteristic was obtained from 60:40 composition with the addition of PVA. The hardness test of bio-foam with PVA and UNPVA was 4.02 MPa and 3.59 MPa, respectively. The melting point of bio-foam with the addition of PVA was 166.50 oC with heating flow of -12.38 MW whereas the melting point of bio-foam without UNPVA addition was 166.45 oC with heating flow of -16.07 MW. The result of SEM test showed that bio-foam mixed with PVA had a smaller pore compared to UNPVA. The structure of bio-foam with a smaller pore produced biodegradable foam with higher compressive strength. Biodegradation test results showed that both samples were completely degraded after ± 2 months of being deposited in the soil.

“…Burning the waste produces harmful gases such as styrene, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (HAP), hydrochlorofluoro carbon (HCFC) and carbon monoxide (CO) will be generated. Therefore, the use of Styrofoam should be reduced (Verma et al, 2016;Zhou et al, 2016;Fikri and Veronica, 2018). An effort to reduce the use of styrofoam is to develop materials that do not significantly burden the environment.…”

The increase in styrofoam waste can cause environmental pollution, therefore efforts are required to reduce the use of styrofoam. One of them is by replacing it with biofoam made from agricultural industry waste such as bagasse because if this garbage is not used, it may cause environmental issues. Bagasse has a potential to be utilized as biofoam. This research aims to extract cellulose from bagasse through delignification and bleaching processes, as well as synthesize and characterize biofoam using cellulose from bagasse with the addition of chitosan variations of 2, 3.5, 5, and 6.5 g. The stages of this research are the extraction of cellulose from bagasse waste with FTIR and XRD analysis, making biofoam and biofoam characterization tests. The results of cellulose extraction from bagasse are O-H, C-H and C-O functional groups that indicate the presence of cellulose. In XRD analysis, the cellulose sample has a crystallinity index of 70.74%. Biofoam based on sugarcane bagasse cellulose with the addition of 2 g chitosan has the best characterization, which has a density of 1.23 g/mL, with a water absorption value of 46.03% at 24 hours immersion and biodegradability of 20.68% for 28 days.

“…Activated carbon is a very popular material and is widely used as an adsorbent due to its efficient and economical application. The activated carbon has been applied for the adsorption of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) (Harihastuti et al, 2015), chrome metal (Cr) (Arneli et al, 2017), carbon dioxide (CO2) (Harihastuti et al, 2017), carbon monoxide (CO) (Fikri & Veronica, 2018), surfactants (Arnelli et al, 2018), and ammonia (Ruhmawati et al, 2019). Activated carbon could be produced from coconut husk (Aljeboree et al, 2017), Acacia mangium wood (Danish et al, 2018), risk husk (Yaumi et al, 2018), and pineapple plant leaf (Beltrame et al, 2018).…”

The dyes of the textile dyeing industry wastewater are harmful to humans and the environment. They should be treated before discharging into the environment. The adsorption using the spherical activated carbon can be effective to reduce the dyes. The spherical activated carbon of 3-7 µm in diameter was successfully prepared from the waste bagasse liquid using the hydrothermal method. The activation of this carbon was carried out using the KOH solution. The optimum pH and contact time were achieved in 2 and 200 min, respectively. Adsorption kinetic for RhB on activated spherical carbon follows the second-order kinetics and its adsorption mechanism follows the Langmuir isotherm. The maximum adsorption capacity of spherical activated carbon to Rhodamine B was achieved in 64.52 mg/g.
