Judul: Pb2+ Adsorption Using Mixture of Kaolinite-Sago Waste and Bentonite-Sago Waste.
Abstrak: Various efforts have been conducted to overcome heavy metal contamination, among other things with physical and chemical method such as chemical precipitation and ultra-filtration. However, these methods are costly and ineffective. Therefore, there is a need to find alternatives to investigate a low cost and effective method. In this experiment, heavy metal ions Pb2+ were adsorbed on sago waste, mixture of sago waste with kaolinite, and mixture of sago waste with bentonite. The adsorbents were activated using acid and base. The activated charcoal was used as a comparation. The result showed that all adsorbents made of mixture of sago waste with kaolinite and with bentonite were potential to adsorb Pb2+. However, sago waste with acid-activation and the mixture of sago waste acid-treated as well as the acid-treated kaolinite (75:25) adsorbents gave adsorption capacity higher than the others. Adsorption capacity of both adsorbents were higher than the activated charcoal. Adsorption type of the adsorbent can be evaluated by the determination of Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm test. The result showed that both adsorbents had Langmuir isotherm type, so it can be estimated that the adsorbed layers on the adsorbent surface is monolayer.

Judul: Adsorben berbasis limbah padat tapioka
Abstrak: The use of agroindustrial waste and clay mineral have been studied as alternative adsorbents for dyes, such as cibacron blue. In this research, tapioca solid waste, kaolin, bentonite, and the mixture of tapioca solid waste and kaolinite or bentonite were used as adsorbents for cibacron blue. Acid and base treatments were carried out to activate the adsorbents. Adsorption was varied with adsorption times and adsorbent weight. The result showed that acid activated tapioca solid waste had the highest adsorption capacity. The optimum adsorption time and adsorbent tapioca solid waste weight was 75 minutes and 1 g. The cibacron blue concentration decrease from 50 mg/L to 11.12 mg/L. On the other hand, the optimum condition for commercially activated carbon were 30 minutes and 0.5 g with concentration decreasing from 50 mg/L to 19.44 mg/L. The adsorption capacity for acid activated tapioca solid waste and activated carbon were 1.94 mg/g and 3.05 mg/g adsorbent respectively. With adsorption efficiency were 77.75% and 61.11%. Acid activated tapioca solid waste were followed Freundlich isotherm.

Judul: Beberapa aspek anatomi alat sirkulasi ruang dada kancil
Abstrak: Telah dilakukan penelitian dengan menggunakan 10 ekor kancil dewasa jantan dan betina dengan tujuan untuk menge- tahui beberapa aspek anatomi alat sirkulasi di dalam ruang dada, meliputi jantung, pembuluh darah yang keluar dan ma- suk jantung serta ukuran-ukuran jantung. Kancil merupakan ruminansia terkecil di dunia, hidup di daerah tropika India, Thailand, Malaysia dan Indonesia bagian barat. Hewan ini dilindungi dan mempunyai prospek yang baik untuk hewan penelitian maupun dibudidayakan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa berat jantung rаta-rata adalah 0.69% dari berat rata-rata kancil. Dan ini mirip pada jantung kuda dan anjing. Bentuk jantung lonjong seperti halnya ruminansia. Demikian pula letaknya di dalam ruang dada seperti pada ruminansia dengan adanya Ligamentum sternopericardiacum. Di dalam ventrikel kanan membersit sebuah Musculus (M.) papillaris dari dindingnya dan tiga sampai empat Musculi (Mm.) papillares dari Septum interventriculare. Hanya dua buah Mm. papillares yang berukuran besar dibersitkan dari dinding ventrikel kiri. Percabangan Arteri (A.) coronaria sinistra lebih dominan dari pada A. coronaria dextra. Sedangkan A. sub clavia sinistra dicabangkan langsung dari aorta di dorso- caudal pembersitan Truncus (Tr.) brachiocephalicus…
