Judul: The Use of Jackfruit (Artocarpus heterophyllus Lam.) Peel as a Activated Carbon for Amoxicillin Adsorption
Abstrak: Kulit nangka merupakan limbah pertanian yang mengandung senyawa selulosa yang dapat dimanfaatkan sebagai karbon aktif penjerap limbah farmasi, seperti amoksisilin. Karbon aktif disiapkan melalui tahap karbonisasi secara hidrotermal dan aktivasi. Pada penelitian ini, karbon aktif dengan ragam konsentrasi aktivator dievaluasi kemampuannya sebagai penjerap amoksisilin. Aktivator yang digunakan adalah H3PO4. Parameter yang diamati antara lain model isoterm, kinetika reaksi, dan termodinamika adsorpsi. Karbon aktif dicirikan menggunakan spektroskopi Fourier transform infrared dan scanning electron microscopy. Secara umum, kualitas karbon aktif dalam penelitian ini berciri baik, yaitu kadar air 1,62%, kadar abu 1,25%, kadar zat terbang 21,41%, daya jerap iodin 861,24 mg/g, dan daya jerap biru metilena 16,37 mg/g. Model isoterm adsorpsi amoksisilin adalah Langmuir. Adsorpsi amoksisilin mengikuti orde kedua semu dan termodinamika adsorpsi amoksisilin terjadi secara eksotermik., Jackfruit peel is an agricultural waste that contains cellulose and can be used as activated carbon to adsorb pharmaceutical waste, such as amoxicillin. Activated carbon was prepared through hydrothermal carbonization and activation. This study evaluated activated carbon with various activator concentrations for its ability as an amoxicillin adsorber. The activator used was H3PO4. Parameters observed include isothermic models, reaction kinetics, and adsorption thermodynamics. The activated carbon was characterized using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy. In general, the quality of activated carbon in this study was well characterized, namely 1,62% moisture, 1,25% ash, 21,41% volatile substance, 861,24 mg/g iodine adsorption, and 16,37 mg/g methylene blue adsorption. The adsorption isotherm model of amoxicillin is Langmuir. Amoxicillin adsorption follows a pseudo-second-order and thermodynamically amoxicillin adsorption occurs exothermic.

Judul: Pemanfaatan Karbon Aktif dengan Aktivator H3PO4 dari Limbah Padat Agar sebagai Penjerap pada Limbah Cair Industri Penyamakan Kulit
Abstrak: Agar solid waste can be used as an adsorbent in the form of activated carbon. The study aims were to determine the best concentration of H3PO4 and activation time on the processing of activated carbon and the effectiveness of activated carbon as an adsorbent in the tanning industry wastewater. The activation step of activated carbon was carried out with H3PO4 concentration of 10; 20; 30% and the time activation of 15; 20; 25 hours. The best activation treatment was obtained on 10% H3PO4 concentration and 15 hours activation time with activated carbons yield of 93.42%, moisture content of 10.59%, ash content of 65.91%, absorption of iodine of 1090.80 mg/g, volatile matter of 21.60% dan fixed carbon of 12.35%. The best activated carbon was applied to the tanning industry wastewater with contact time of 0.5; 1; 1.5; 2 hours and activated carbon concentrations of 0; 1; 2; 3%. Application treatment with contact time of 0.5 hours and 3% activated carbon concentration decreased the value of Cr from 4371.21 ppm to 3572.76 ppm, treatment with contact time of 1 hours and 3% activated carbon concentration decreased the value of BOD, COD from 1216.10 mg/L, 17753.33 mg/L to 438.21 mg/L, 11770.00 mg/L respectively, however it did not affect the pH value.

Judul: Integration of Islamic Stock Markets of OIC Countries Before and During the Russia-Ukraine War Crisis
Abstrak: Pasar saham yang terintegrasi memberikan dampak negatif seperti percepatan co-movement (pergerakan bersama) yang rentan terhadap guncangan ekonomi, maupun krisis pasar global ke pasar domestik. Salah satu krisis yang terjadi pada tahun 2022 adalah perang Rusia-Ukraina yang berdampak pada pasar saham, termasuk pada saham syariah yang dipercaya lebih tahan terhadap guncangan krisis global. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk meneliti perkembangan, integrasi dan respon lima pasar saham syariah negara OKI pada perang Rusia-Ukraina. Metode yang digunakan adalah VAR/VECM pada indeks DJIMMT25, SPSADS, SPSUAEDS, JII, DJIMT, SPBMIR, dan SPBMIU. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan pergerakan yang sama pada pasar saham UAE dan Arab Saudi, sedangkan Turki mengalami tren positif selama perang. Pasar saham syariah negara OKI selama periode perang Rusia-Ukraina terkointegrasi, sementara pasar saham Malaysia memengaruhi pasar saham syariah empat negara OKI lainnya. Hasil IRF menunjukkan terdapat efek permanen pada volatilitas pasar saham syariah negara OKI akibat guncangan yang diberikan. Namun, respon volatilitas relatif kecil karena kontribusi guncangan lebih didominasi oleh pasar saham itu sendiri, An integrated stock market has negative impacts, such as accelerating co-movement, which is vulnerable to economic shocks and global market crises on the domestic market. One of the crises in 2022 was the Russia-Ukraine war which impacted the stock market, including Sharia stocks which were believed to be more resistant to the shocks of the global crisis. This study examines the development, integration, and response of OIC countries five Islamic stock markets in the Russia-Ukraine war. The method used is VAR/VECM on the DJIMMT25, SPSADS, SPSUUAEDS, JII, DJIMT, SPBMIR, and SPBMIU indices. The results show the same movement in the UAE and Saudi Arabia stock markets, while Turkey experienced a positive trend during the war. The Islamic stock market of the OIC countries during the Russia-Ukraine war was cointegrated. In contrast, the Malaysian stock market influenced the Islamic stock markets of the other four OIC countries. The IRF results show a permanent effect on the volatility of the Islamic stock market in OKI countries due to the shocks given. However, the volatility response is relatively small because the stock market itself dominates the contribution of shocks.
