Judul: Analisis Beban Kerja dan Kebutuhan Pegawai Pada Sub Bidang Seleksi dan Pembibitan (Studi Kasus Pada Pusat Konservasi Tumbuhan kebun Raya Bogor – Lembaga Ilmu Pengetahuan Indonesia)
Abstrak: Bureaucratic reform that leads to advanced change, requires effectively and efficiently human resources. Role of Selection and Breeding Sub Division in Center for Plant Conservation Bogor Botanical Gardens Indonesian Institute of Sciences is important because it is one of contributing factors to other sub divisions in order to coordinate related to preservation of plants life cycle so that every activity goes smoothly. Workload analysis needed to obtain employee on proportional workload as of 13 employees. This study aims to (1) Identify main tasks and functions of Principal of Selection and Breeding Sub Division. (2) Analyze working time usage (productive and unproductive) as well as personal time of Principal of Selection and Breeding Sub Division. (3) Analyze number of ideal employee needs of Selection and Breeding Sub Division based on workload analysis. Information comes from primary and secondary data. Primary data includes interview and direct observation using work sampling method. Meanwhile, secondary data is obtained by book, essay, thesis, journals, internet, and data of Center for Plant Conservation Bogor Botanical Gardens - Indonesian Institute of Sciences. Sampling method uses probability sampling with census technique. Analysis tool used in estimating ideal employee needs is working time and full time equivalent (FTE) technique. The results obtained are (1) Main tasks and functions analysis of Principal of Selection, Breeding, and Seeds Unit. (2) Working time usage. Productive and unproductive working time as of 13 employees and called P1 to P13. The highest productive level is employee P7 as of 81.21% as well as unproductive level is employee P6 as of 30.71%, both is in Breeding Sub Division. (3) Workload estimation. Selection and Breeding Sub Division already has number of ideal (Right Size) employee as of 13 employees. Its average value of FTE is 1,07 that is in acceptance range 1 to 1,3 (fit).

Judul: Analisis Beban Kerja di Biro Umum dan SDM Pusat Penelitian Bioteknologi dan Bioindustri Indonesia
Abstrak: Pusat Penelitian Bioteknologi dan Bioindustri Indonesia (PPBBI) merupakan salah satu pusat penelitian dari PT Riset Perkebunan Nusantara (RPN). Produktivitas PPBBI sebagai lembaga penelitian dipengaruhi oleh jumlah sumber daya manusianya. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis beban kerja dan kebutuhan karyawan serta memberikan rekomendasi untuk pertimbangan perencanaan sumber daya manusia pada bagian Biro Umum dan SDM PPBBI. Metode penarikan sampel menggunakan teknik purposive sampling. Alat analisis yang digunakan adalah perhitungan penggunaan waktu kerja produktif dengan metode work sampling, perhitungan kebutuhan tenaga kerja sesuai KEPMENPAN dan analisis beban kerja dengan Full Time Equivalent (FTE). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan deskripsi pekerjaan pada Biro Umum dan SDM masih berupa rangkaian tugas dan tanggung jawab, nilai FTE karyawan mayoritas sudah fit, dan adanya penambahan karyawan sebanyak dua orang. Hasil pengamatan mengenai penggunaan waktu kerja menunjukkan bahwa karyawan mayoritas memiliki angka penggunaan waktu kerja produktif yang cukup tinggi.

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.
