Abstrak: The bird species diversity in the location of PT Indocement Tunggal Prakarsa (ITP) Tbk, can be indicators of the successfully of the PT ITP in relative maintains of the environment. The research was conducted on 8 land cover types in the PT ITP. Bird data was collected using Point Count with the number of points at each location between four to six points, with the distance of each point with observation radius of 150 m and 50 m. Total bird species found at the sampling area is 46 species (25 families). Eight species of birds in the location in the list of protection according to the GR No. 7 in 1999 and two bird species included in Appendix II of CITES. Highest bird diversity index is the location of the Jatropha curcas (H'= 2.98). Evenness index in all types of land cover almost evenly spread of at the sampling area. T-test results showed that wetland, is a significantly different land cover types with trees land cover, plant area, Jatropha curcas, and shrubs. Artificial lake area significantly different with trees land cover, plant area, Jatropha curcas, and shrubs. Another significantly different is buffer areas with trees land cover. Locations with similarity index types (IS) is the highest among plant area with Jatropha curcas (IS= 0.77). The dominance bird species at sampling area was influence by land cover type.

Judul: Keanekaragaman Herpetofauna di Areal PT Indocement Tunggal Prakarsa, Tbk Plant Palimanan Cirebon Jawa Barat
Abstrak: PT. Indocement Tbk Cirebon is one of the centre of cement production in Java. The mining activities will affect on the condition of habitats in this area. The purpose of this study is to assess herpetofauna composition and diversity. Data was collected on July 2013 in six sampling locations using VES (Visual Encounter Survey) – time search. There are 22 species with total 161 individuals herpetofauna consisting of 9 species of amphibians and 13 species of reptiles. The highest number of diversity index (Shannon Wiener index) found in Tegakan samping gudang batu bara, Kolam Goa Dalam and Hutan Alam Gunung Blindis, while the lowest number found in Curug Hanjuang. Three sampling points should be prioritize for conservation which are Tegakan samping gudang batu bara, Hulu Sungai Kali Jaya and Curug Hanjuang.

Judul: Katalis Zink Ferit Tersubstitusi Cu untuk Oksidasi Benzil Alkohol
Abstrak: Katalis berperan dalam menurunkan energi aktivasi. Katalis ZnFe2O4 dan ZnFe2O4 tersubstitusi Cu disintesis menggunakan metode kopresipitasi untuk digunakan dalam oksidasi benzil alkohol. Katalis dicirikan dengan spektrofotometer inframerah (FTIR) dan difraktometer sinar-X. Spektrum FTIR menunjukkan puncak serapan dari ikatan Zn-O dan Fe-O masing-masing pada rentang 559‒575 cm-1 dan 419‒447 cm-1. Difraktogram menunjukkan terbentuknya fase tunggal Zn0.6Cu0.4Fe2O4 pada katalis ZnFe2O4 tersubstitusi Cu 20%. Benzil alkohol dioksidasi dengan sistem refluks. Konversi benzil alkohol meningkat dengan meningkatnya suhu. Kadar benzaldehida yang dihasilkan dengan katalis ZnFe2O4 tersubstitusi Cu 20% lebih tinggi dibandingkan dengan katalis ZnFe2O4 yang tidak tersubstitusi dan yang tersubstitusi Cu 60 dan 80%. Hal tersebut menunjukkan bahwa katalis ZnFe2O4 tersubstitusi Cu 20% memiliki kinerja yang lebih baik dalam oksidasi benzil alkohol menjadi benzaldehida dengan kadar benzaldehida 8.763%.
