Judul: Analisis Dampak Pengembangan Wisata Perkampungan Budaya Betawi Terhadap Masyarakat Sekitar Kawasan
Abstrak: Tourism development which show improvement from time by time, causes many effect which are caused by tourism activity. Native settlement people is one of object from effect caused by tourism activity. Tourism development which is done in Perkampungan Budaya Betawi area could gives some effect to native people, both positive or negative effect. The objective of this study are to identify native settlement people socialeconomic characteristic and perception to tourism object environment quality, estimate income and public income change caused by tourism development, analyze tourism development social and environment effect, estimate native’s WTP value to tourism object conservation, and analyze factor affecting WTP value. To answer this study’s objective, descriptive analysis, income changes, Contingent Valuation Method (CVM), and multi linear regression model method are used with SPSS 16 for windows, and Microsoft Excel 2010 as data analyzer software. Results show that public’s income and average income change estimation is about Rp 224.097,87/month. Income raises based by present value is Rp - 220.773,28/month. Largest average income raises is recieved by parking attendant group with Rp 503.750,00 income raises. Based by present value, average income raises parking attendant is Rp 162.277,73. Social effect evaluation appear from employees profession switches and working manpower caused by tourism development. The tourism development also changes people’s attitude and behaviour which are damaging the settlement such as exceeding settlement area and illegal building construction. Environment effect from tourism development is, litter contamination from tourism activity, and land function changes which causes disaster to conservation area such as flood and avalanche. Respondent’s average WTP values to tourism object environment conservation program is Rp 4.175,44/month for each household. Factors affect significantly to respondent’s WTP value are education degree, income rate, number of family member, years of living, and dummy variant respondent knowledge to Setu Babakan benefit and cost.

Judul: Analisis Dampak Ekonomi Kegiatan Wisata Alam (Studi Kasus: Floating Market Lembang, Bandung)
Abstrak: The tourism industry is one sector that can improve the economic progress of society. Lembang Floating Market is one area that has great potential and has appeal as a tourist area. The specific objective of this research is to identify the characteristics of the visitors, business units, and manpower around the Lembang Floating Market, identify factors that affect tourism demand, estimating the economic impact of tourism activities of Lembang Floating Market. The results of this research show that the average age of visitors Lembang Floating Market is 17-25 years old with an average visitor job is as private employees and earn between Rp 500,000 to Rp 2,000,000, most visitors come from Bandung. Factors that influence (at 5% significance level) is the level of income, travel expenses, mileage, and the number of families. Value of economic impact is estimated using a multiplier effect approach includes direct economic impact can be felt by the owner of a business unit of Rp 1,109,671,742 , indirect economic impacts in the form of spending a business unit within the tourist area of Rp 1,120,265,853 , while the advanced economic impact in the form of expenditure manpower in the tourist area of Rp 90,784,891. Value of Keynesian income multiplier is 1.3, the ratio of income multiplier type I is 2.0, ratio income multiplier type II is 2.1.

Judul: Membran Komposit Kitosan-Zeolit untuk Aplikasi Direct Methanol Fuel Cell
Abstrak: Direct methanol fuel cell (DMFC) is a fuel cell that utilize methanol as the fuel source. The electrolyte membrane used in the DMFC system in this research was chitosan-zeolite composite membrane. The composite membrane was synthesized with chitosan-zeolite composition variation of 1:1, 1:2, 1:3, and 2:1. The membranes were analyzed by Fourier transform infrared spectrophotometer (FTIR) and scanning electron microscope, and for the specific gravity. Membrane performances were tested with methanol uptake, methanol permeability, conductivity, and potential difference in the DMFC system. The FTIR spectrum showed no formation of new functional groups inducating that the composite membrane was a result of physical mixing. Morphological analysis showed that the membrane was nonporous. Chitosan-zeolite 1:3 composite membrane had the highest specific gravity and methanol uptake, 1.4226 g/mL and 41.44%, respectively. The highest proton conductivity was showed by the 1:2 chitosanzeolite composite membrane, namely 7.2946× 10-7 S/cm. Based on this research results, chitosan-zeolite composite membrane can be applied in DMFC system.
