This study aims to analyze the performance of the economizer in transferring heat energy to the fluid flows of Crude Palm Oil (CPO) and Refined Bleached and Deodorized Palm Oil (RBDPO). The research method involved direct observation with measurements of temperature and fluid flow at PT XYZ. From these data, heat loss and thermal efficiency were calculated. The results showed temperature fluctuations in the inflow and outflow of CPO and RBDPO. These fluctuations can be affected by changes in the incoming fluid flow. Fluid flow entered CPO and RBDPO during the research period. The mass flow of RBDPO increased from 33,659.98 kg/hour to 36,720 kg/hour, while CPO's flow peaked at 37,280 kg/hour. The thermal efficiency of the Economizer HE-T521A has an average value of 89.45%. The highest thermal efficiency was achieved on February 22, 2023, reaching 91.09%, while the lowest value occurred on February 24, 2023, amounting to 88.58%. Even though the thermal efficiency is below the design target of 94%, this economizer still provides relatively good thermal efficiency. The results of this study can be used as a basis for further improvement and monitoring to increase the tool's thermal efficiency according to the expected design.","PeriodicalId":30703,"journal":{"name":"Eksergi","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140483143","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}

This study aims to explore the effectiveness of a photocatalytic hybrid system using a Chitosan-TiO2 membrane for the degradation of batik waste. The performance of the membrane was investigated through a series of experiments, evaluating its ability to remove organic pollutants and enhance the overall treatment efficiency. The morphology, as seen through SEM images, shows a rough surface that enhances photocatalytic efficiency by providing a larger surface area for reactions. The uniform distribution of TiO2 particles within the chitosan matrix is crucial for stable and efficient pollutant degradation during photocatalysis. Furthermore, Chitosan-TiO2 membranes offer a promising solution for batik wastewater treatment. They combine the benefits of chitosan's permeability and organic substance capture with TiO2's photocatalytic capabilities. This integration allows for efficient, one-step hybrid photocatalytic filtration, reducing the use of harmful chemicals and producing environmentally friendlier byproducts. Finally, AAS analysis demonstrated that the addition of TiO2 improved heavy metal degradation in batik waste, with optimal performance observed up to a 89.78% rejection rate, beyond which TiO2 agglomeration occurred.","PeriodicalId":30703,"journal":{"name":"Eksergi","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140496908","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}
