In Indonesia, particularly in Serang City, challenges in waste processing are prevalent. This study explores the characteristics of waste and potential valorization strategies at the Cilowong disposal site. It involves sampling, physical and chemical composition testing, and nutrient content analysis. The waste density analysis reveals consistent values similar to other regional landfills. Fractionation indicates that materials under 10 mm have higher densities than those over 10 mm, with plastics dominating the larger fraction. Specifically, materials over 10 mm account for 59.88%, while those under 10 mm comprise 40.12%. The composition analysis highlights a high proportion of unsorted residual waste and plastics, with compost and biowaste showing decomposition. Notably, challenges in meeting standards for Refuse Derived Fuel (RDF) and compost quality highlight the necessity for pretreatment. The caloric value of the waste is 2,158 Kcal/kg, with a moisture content of 42.45% and ash content of 56.21%. Despite these values, the waste from Cilowong shows potential for RDF production and waste-to-energy applications. However, 1 mg/kg mercury contamination in compost raises concerns about its suitability for food crops. The fine fraction from landfill mining could serve alternative purposes, such as soil cover and environmental remediation. Effective waste valorization strategies are essential for improving landfill capacity and creating sustainable waste management solutions, especially for larger (>10 mm) and smaller (<10 mm) waste fractions.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":34388,"journal":{"name":"Case Studies in Chemical and Environmental Engineering","volume":"11 ","pages":"Article 101069"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-12-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143148195","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The purpose of this work is to examine the mechanical, tribological, and thermal characteristics of composites made of magnesium powder and <em>Paederia foetida</em> fiber (PFs). In this study, the hot press method was utilized to create PFs/Mg/epoxy composites. PFs have been calculated to be 5 % and 10 % (% vol.) with varying Mg concentrations of 10 %, 15 %, and 20 %, in that order. They underwent analysis and comparison for their tensile strength, bending strength, and thermal and tribological properties. The findings of this study demonstrate that the composite containing 10 % PFs and 15 % Mg (KB sample) provides the maximum tensile strength of 38.17 ± 1.65 MPa, the highest flexural strength of close to 70 MPa, and is heat resistant. As the amount of magnesium powder increases, tribology analysis using mass wear intensity and linear wear intensity tends to be low. When 20 % magnesium is added, composites with a fiber volume fraction of 10 % exhibit better overall characteristics than composites with a fiber percentage of 5 %. Tensile test findings for the composite fracture's morphology indicate a rather robust interaction between PFs-Mg and epoxy. These PFs/Mg composites are a prospective alternative for the automobile sector since they have improved mechanical, thermal, and wear qualities as well as sustainability.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":34388,"journal":{"name":"Case Studies in Chemical and Environmental Engineering","volume":"11 ","pages":"Article 101077"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-12-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143148669","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The textile effluent pollution parameters, such as pH, temperature, dissolved oxygen (DO), chemical oxygen demand (COD), total suspended solids (TSS), color, and total dissolved solids (TDS), were tested at 3-month intervals. The raw textile wastewater consisted of dark in color (405 ± 15 Pt–Co scale), high pH (12 ± 2.0), COD (2016 ± 1125 mg L<sup>−1</sup>), temperature (65 ± 5 °C), TSS (250 ± 125 mg L<sup>−1</sup>) and TDS (9000 ± 1200 mg L<sup>−1</sup>). The UASB bioreactor was more effective for removing 55.0% of COD, 84.0% of TSS, and 80.7% of color. The biofilter removed TDS (39.0%) and increased the DO level effectively, while the aerobic process was found less effective in removing color from the textile effluent. The combination of the UASB, biofilter, and aerobic processes effectively removed 93.05% of COD and 86.41% of color at the maximum organic loading rate (OLR) with 52.64 hrs of hydraulic retention time (HRT). Among the other pollution parameters, the combined system had an overall removal efficiency of 96.0% of TSS and 77.8% of TDS. This system also raised the DO level from 0.0 to 6.04 ± 1.02 mg L<sup>−1</sup>, and the pH of the final treated effluent was neutral.

It proposes optimal conditions for washing machine activities to effectively mitigate the environmental consequences of microfiber contamination using Response Surface Methodology (RSM). The results indicated that types of washing machines, speed of configuration and cycle duration significantly impact on microfiber release quantities.

Polyester was identified as the predominant polymer, with an average fiber length of 1915 μm.

This study explores the potential of valorizing banana rachis, currently discarded, to produce bacterial nanocellulose (BNC), a bioproduct with applications in the textile, food, and cosmetic industries. The objective is to investigate the effect of different ozone treatment times (0, 5, 20, and 30 minutes) on the physicochemical properties of banana rachis juice (BRJ). The selected variables—dissolved oxygen, oxygen saturation, salinity, total dissolved solids, electrical conductivity, pH, turbidity, °Brix, and electrical resistance—are critical for influencing microbial growth and fermentation efficiency, essential for BNC production. The influence of varying BRJ concentrations (25 %, 50 %, and 75 %) and ozonation times on these properties and BNC yield was assessed. The BNC obtained from ozonated BRJ was characterized using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and X-ray diffraction (XRD). Results indicated that the physicochemical properties of the BNC were consistent with those produced by the Hestrin-Schramm (HS) method, validating the reproducibility of these characteristics. A 25 % BRJ concentration treated with ozone for 20 minutes yielded approximately 0.88 g of dry BNC per liter after seven days of fermentation.
