Judul: Implementasi Sistem Sertifikasi Halal Berbagai Kategori Industri Pangan dan Uji Coba Implementasinya di Kantin Sapta- Fateta-IPB
Abstrak: Consuming halal food is a mandatory for every Muslim. For this reason, it is important for food producers to provide halal food. Demand of halal food increases significantly in line with the growth of Muslim population and the awareness of Muslim to consuming halal food. Due to the high population of Muslim around the world halal food production has become the concern of food industries in the last twenty years, including in Indonesia. The assurance of halal food production by food industries was done through certification process. In Indonesia, the process of halal certification was conducted by an independent agency under the Indonesian Council of Ulama (MUI), namely the Institute for Foods, Drugs and Cosmetics (LPPOM MUI). Indonesia has become the pioneer in establishment of halal certification system. Currently LPPOM MUI has established Halal Certification Online Service System (CEROL-SS23000) in order to facilitate the registration of manufacturers and halal certification process. The objectives of this internship program was to study the halal certification system for various food industry categories conducted by LPPOM MUI, through the Certification Online Service System (CEROL system), and implementation through the preparation of halal certification in the catering Sapta-Fateta-IPB. The primer data was obtained through survey to some categories of food industries to evaluate Certification Online Service System (CEROL-SS23000) based on producer perception.

Judul: Mempelajari Sistem Sertifikasi Halal di Indonesia dan Malaysia, serta Pengembangan Model Sistem Sertifikasi Halal di Vietnam.
Abstrak: Halal certification in food production facility, food product, or slaughterhouse are an inspection of people, practices and products which is adhere to Islamic dietary laws by competent organization. Generally, halal certified get an specific seal or logo which indicates that it has been independently inspected. There are hundreds of organization around the world that offer halal certification services, though the exact definition of halal is not always same. These difference caused by the perception of halal certification methods for one organization is not the same with others. The objective of this study is analyze the differences of halal certification system in Indonesia and Malaysia, and an idea to establish halal certification system model in Vietnam. This study is conducted direct observation and analysis of official documents from halal certification body. Direct observation was conducted in LPPOM MUI. Official documents were obtained from LPPOM MUI, BHH JAKIM and CBI HCM office, and their official websites. The difference of halal certification system in Indonesia and Malaysia is observed in the halal certification procedure and halal assurance system. Model of halal certification system in Vietnam is proposed to include organizational structure, human resources, implementation methodology, halal assurance system and public policy.

Judul: Thermal Characteristics and Dynamics of Tropical Cyclone over Western North Pacific Ocean: A Case Study of Typhoon Songda (Chedeng) 2011
Abstrak: The frequent occasion of Tropical Cyclone (TC) over Western North Pacific (WNP) Ocean lies from 10˚N to 26˚N and 121˚E to 170˚E. Sources of TC development come from warm ocean temperature where latent heat is released during condensation processes and subsequently concentrated in the boundary layer. Relative humidity at 850-700 hPa is responsible to produce the most intense storm. Meanwhile, weak vertical wind shear between 850-200 hPa is one of the dynamical factors that lead to the development of TC. Pressure level of 850-200 hPa is chosen to minimize the thermodynamic effect in the lower troposphere. Typhoon Songda (Chedeng in the Philippines) or TSC lasted from May 18th to 30th, 2011 and strengthened into powerful Super Typhoon stage between May 24th and 27th. Long curving track and the exhibition of all sequences of TC life cycle, TSC is then considered as an ideal case of TC. The objective of the study with case of TSC is to investigate the role of thermal characteristics and dynamics on TC intensity. The research is carried out by using Advanced Research of Weather Research and Forecasting model (WRF ARW model) version 3.3. Two domains are employed in the model. The first domain situate from 02˚N to 40˚N and 118˚E to 149˚E and cover spatial resolution () of 33.1 km. The second domain situate from 09˚N to 27˚N and 119˚E to 132˚E with of 11 km. Timestep of the model () is 120 seconds. The model is supported by the following physical parameterization, i.e., Yonsei University Scheme (YSU) in the boundary layer, Kain-Fritsch scheme (KF) in the cumulus, and WRF Single-Moment 3-class scheme in the microphysics. Initial meteorological condition prior to the formation of the cyclone is generated using WRF ARW standard-release model. Sensitivity of the model output is obtained from a selected single-parameter change scenarios, namely, 10 % to 20 % decrease and increase of wind shear initial data at 850-200 hPa, and by 10 % to 20 % decrease of relative humidity initial data at 850-700 hPa. The result showed that the negative correlations between wind shear and intensity are found in wind shear scenarios. Wind shears of 10 ms-1 which lead to strengthening of the wind intensity in the early period of Typhoon development are found in wind shear scenarios. The effect of wind shear changes on wind intensity is statistically significant in the 20 % wind shear scenarios. During mature stage, weak wind intensity occurred when wind shear increase as given in the WRF standard-release and the 20 % decreasing scenario. Different situation is found in the 20 % increasing scenario where wind shear tend to weak and lead to strong wind intensity at this stage. Meanwhile, the reduction of moisture supply at 850-700 hPa resulting from 20 % decreasing relative humidity play a major role in the weakening of wind intensity and reduces mechanical energy of the cycle process as much as 300 J kg-1.
