Arus dan Tegangan kemudian dinaikkan dengan membuat dua buah rangkain seri TE yang tersusun dari empat buah TE (tipe peltier) kemudian outputnya dirangkaikan secara paralel. Sebuah modul charger ditambahkan bersama dengan modul step-up kemudian dirakit untuk membuat satu unit catu daya. Kombinasi kipas, heatsink dan pasta panas pada modifikasi kompor mampu membuat TE berada pada spesifikasi pengoperasian. Mampu memberikan perbedaan yang nyata pada output arus sampai 2x lipatnya. Penyusunan rangkain TE secara keseluruhan meningkatkan output arus dan tegangan sampai 3x lipatnya.

This study aimed to synthesize BSFbased chitosan, formulate BSF-based chitosan composites with kipahit leaf extract using 0.1% sodium tripolyphosphate and evaluate the antibacterial activity against Xanthomonas oryzae. The optimization of kipahit leaves extraction was performed with a solvent varieties (2% acetic acid, 96% ethanol and 20% DMSO).

According to the anti-bacterial activity assay, the potential composite of kipahit leaf extract and BSF-based chitosan was obtained at a concentration of 1%.

Red spinach is an alternative resource of red violet color as it is abundant in nature. Despite its simplicity of extraction technique, the maceration method still needs enhancement because it is time-consuming. Ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE) was used to shorten the extraction time. In this study, the red-violet pigment extraction has been carried out by the maceration method for six red spinach varieties. The spinach leaves' ratio to a mixture of ethanol 96% and citric acid 10% were 1:7, 1:9, 1:11, and 1:13. The highest absorbance for Delima, Abbang, Baret Merah, and Mira extracts were obtained from the ratio of 1:7, whereas Red and Clara extracts were 1:9. The optimum solvent/mass ratio for each variety was then used in the UAE. Extractions assisted by ultrasound in 5, 10, and 15 minutes have been conducted. UAE time yields the highest red-violet extract absorbance in 15 minutes for Red, Abbang, Baret Merah, Mira, and Clara while Delima was in 5 minutes. The results suggested that the UAE is more effective than 24-hours maceration for red-violet pigment extraction from red spinach.","PeriodicalId":163681,"journal":{"name":"Rekayasa Bahan Alam dan Energi Berkelanjutan","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128556975","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
