Authors: Felly R , Susanto D 
Published: May 2020

Abstract
The degradation of cognitive function (memory) is one of the senile symptoms. The elders with age over 60 years old have a higher risk of having this disease. A design approach that can fulfill these needs is called biophilic design. The biophilic design gives a sustainable design strategy that considers the relationship between human and natural environment. The biophilic design aims to create a natural-based habitat by integrating nature with natural materials as well as natural shape into space. This research aimed to find how biophilic design could help to improve the elder’s memory in Sasana Tresna Werdha. An Instrument used in this research was 43 biophilic design assessment instrument points, which were developed based on 14 biophilic design patterns to identify the presence of biophilic design quantitatively. To measure the elder’s memory, this research used The Clinical Dementia Rating (CDR) table. This research conducted for 1.5 months. The biophilic design could affect the decrease in dementia level in elders with ages ranging from 60-85 years old that located in STW Ria Pembangunan, Cibubur. It will be a great implementation in any building function to improve the human’s quality of life, in this case, is increasing human memory.

Abstract
Sustainable transportation planning is one indicator of measuring green campus. The transportation system has an influence on CO2 emissions in the campus environment. Transportation policy plays a crucial role in managing the number and type of vehicles that are allowed on campus. This study aims to analyze transportation planning within the campus that supports the application of the green concept on campus based on the perception of students as users. The use of campus buses and bicycles by students may help to realize the green campus. Planning interconnected buildings and corridors is part of transportation planning. The research method is quantitative with descriptive analysis. The study was conducted at the Universitas Sumatera Utara with 100 students as respondents. Universitas Sumatera Utara has campus buses and campus bicycle used by students every day. The results of the study indicate that the campus must have interconnected pedestrian lane between buildings and provide rewards to campus bus and bicycle users. Excellent transportation planning supported by campus management can help realize a green campus.

Published: May 2020

Abstract
The Simpang Ujung Aji road section - the boundary of Kabanjahe City is the road that connects the city of Medan and the city of Banda Aceh. Under one of the missions of the Ministry of Public Works and Public Housing, road widening activities carried out on this road section to improve the accessibility of the area resulting in increased growth of the intersection. This study aims to examine the effect of widening road on space utilization seen from changes in land use before and after. The research approach uses a qualitative approach. The results of the analysis show that road widening affects changes in spatial use, as evidenced by changes in the area of land use and building additions along the road corridors. The results can be used as a reference for academics to be further developed in conducting research in other locations that will be the location of development activities and used as input and information for the Central Government or Karo District Government in making decisions for regional development related to changes in spatial use due to road widening.
Urban analysis: reading the elements and layers of Asian cities, a case study of Banda Aceh-Indonesia
Authors: Rahmayati Y 
Published: May 2020

Abstract
Asian cities often experience complex urban problems, mainly due to weak regulations to respond to the changes. There is a need to answer these problems. Using Banda Aceh as the case, this study examines the transformation of the city form through reading the urban elements and layers from historical chronological order focuses on the inner city and its surrounded areas. The aim is to identify the physical and non-physical primary elements and the ordinary layers of the city, as well as analyze the symbolical, sociological, historical, morphological layers and their transformation from time to time. Historical and typo-morphological methodology were used by comparing maps and building styles supported with photographs collected through a series of field observation and from literature. The analysis was divided into pre-colonial, colonial, post-colonial, and post-tsunami disaster periods. Findings from this study shows that there are three main factors that contribute to the transformation of Banda Aceh: the past international trading activities, colonialism, and the tsunami. This study provides a reference for urban designers and planners to understand the complexity of the urban form of the Asian cities which can also be utilized by policy-makers to control regulations for urban development, particularly in Asia.
The study of public perceptions on the quality service of Trans Mebidang Bus
Authors: Lubis Yusuf Aulia , Nasution Ahmad D , Marissa Amy 
Published: May 2020

Abstract
Transportation is a pivotal thing that supports everyday human life and the movement of logistics goods. The transportation system is said to be good if the cost is economical and affordable. However, it seems that the city of Medan has not been implemented, costs are only determined by the government and public transport organizations without involving the community. The low quality of services in terms of safety, comfort, feasibility, ease and efficiency of public transport, provide a feeling that is less comfortable and safe for users of public transport services. The increasing number of people using private vehicles in the city of Medan increases traffic congestion which results in longer travel times, due to many vehicles and lower speeds. The point is that private vehicle users cause congestion, inefficiency in the use of road space, and reduce road capacity. To reduce congestion in the city of Medan, the Medan city government held collaboration with Deli Serdang Regency and Binjai City; Trans Mebidang Bus was established to overcome the bottleneck. Therefore, the researchers are keen to find out the quality service of the bus through the public perception.

Abstract
The outdoor space has been an interesting part of a university. Many universities create their images by the outdoor spaces designs. As Lefebvre stated that those are called abstract space, the university commodity them. The other spaces are called as lived space, there the users live with cold and hot life and emerged the interaction between groups. Fakultas Ilmu Budaya (FIB) is one faculty in Universitas Sumatera Utara, demonstrates the dynamic outdoor spaces built by their expression needs. The spaces are not safe for they are built by themselves. Illegally, not only for their performance but also for their image. Students are performing their ideas on music and discussing their thoughts in there. The spaces are created naturally along with existing buildings which many times are destroyed by the faculty management. However, students are struggling to have. By the qualitative research method, the research is done by observing and interviewing students continuously. This paper shows how the spaces are not planning matters, but they are also people part of the expression of ideas and thoughts. The student feels happy and sad, free but fear, optimistic and pessimistic, real and unreal. New spaces as the production of students emerged for those.

Abstract
Historical development of Shop Houses closely related to the cultural transformation of the society as can be clearly seen in historical civilization. Domination of Western Civilization cannot be denied as reflected in global culture in nearly every country. The shop houses, that originated in China has carried out the adaptation and transformation of China, Western and local architecture as well which lead to the change of its facade. This transformation is widely believed, has dispersed through the intense communication (semiotics) which has influenced the local population, who later accept this shop houses, especially in urban areas. This research applied the descriptive method which stressed the role of semiotic with a number of variables and indicators in order to find the main reason for accepting the shop houses culturally. In line with the theory frame work and preceding researches, there are some significant variables which consist of independent variables, in this case is social media, while dependent variables are the aspects of local culture namely religious aspect, affinities, economic. The results of this research can be used as guide lines for urban semiotics studies and society participatory development.

Published: May 2020

AbstractThe present study examined the effect of acid-alkaline pretreatment on pineapple waste for the performance on the anaerobic digestion. The acid-alkaline pretreatment was carried out by varying pH values from 2 to 12 using HCl and NaOH, and the mixtures were agitated at 250 rpm with the contact time of 24 hrs. The overall result showed that SCOD concentrations increased when pH values were increased. The value of biodegradability of raw waste was about 0.304. The BOD/COD ratios increased to 0.439 and 0.473 for pH 7 and pH 9, respectively. However, the BOD/COD ratios decreased for adjusted pH 12. For BMP test at pH 7, the removal efficiencies were 76.34%, 91.69% and 84.69% for TS, VS and COD, respectively, which were the higher efficiency than other conditions. It was also the optimal condition for the gas production rate because the pretreated pine apple waste was hydrolyzed much the organic matter into the soluble forms that can be immediately consumed by the anaerobic digestion process.

Abstract
In this present work, density of ternary system containing n-tris(hydroxymethyl)methyl-3-aminopropanesulfonic acid (TAPS), glycol, and water was presented. The considered glycols are diethylene glycol (DEG), triethylene glycol (TEG), and tetraethylene glycol (T4EG). The measurements were done over a temperature range of 298.15 to 343.15 K at normal atmospheric pressure. Different concentrations (4 to 16 % by weight TAPS or 56 to 44 % water, in a fixed amount of glycol – 40 %) were used. The effects of temperature and compositions on the measured properties were discussed and then correlated based on the equation proposed for aqueous salt-glycol systems. Calculation results show that the applied model was satisfactory in representing the measured property of the considered ternary aqueous solutions containing TAPS and glycol.

Published: May 2020

Abstract
Currently, wastewater treatment has received attention as one of the most relevant activities to ensure environmental sustainability. This is due to the increased consumption of chemicals as many of them enter directly or indirectly into the environment through effluent discharge, causing pollution of water bodies, which consequently have negative effects in humans. Herein, in this study was focused on the elimination of triclosan (Contaminant of Emerging Concern, CEC) in wastewater, by using immobilized lignolitic enzymes (laccases). Moreover, an electrochemical oxidation pretreatment was applied over the effluents in order to improve the biocatalytic removal performance of Triclosan. Laccase from P. sanguineus CS43 was covalently bonded onto titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles whose surface was previously functionalized with (3-aminopropyl)-triethoxysilane (APTES) and glutaraldehyde. The optimized parameters used in the electrooxidation for pH, current density and treatment time were 2, 10 mA/cm2, and 76 min, respectively. The monitoring of triclosan concentration was carried out by means of gas chromatography coupled to mass spectroscopy (GC-MS).

Abstract
The urban waste in tourist cities needs comprehensive global research efforts and proceeded action as for metropolitan areas huge impact and load on waste management is generated. Waste management and resource conservation strategies are prepared in state-of-the-art level however implementation and future improvement of the current situation is crucial. Some examples in waste prevention and management for better tourism, waste and resource management are provided in the paper as outcomes from Horizon2020 project “Urban Strategies for Waste Management in Tourist Cities”. The policy and tools based on information gathered by scientists, municipal and NGOs experience (e.g. separation of bio-waste in catering industries, “sin-wastes” as from the bars, nightclubs and smoker places, reuse of unnecessary items that can serve for others and many more) are described. In addition, regulatory instruments (e.g. ban of plastic bags, reduction of allowed bio-waste in landfilling), economic instruments (taxes) and voluntary agreements (e.g. deposit systems; cleaning actions by volunteers) might be used to implement and elaborate the situation within environmental management and prevention practices in tourist metropolitan cities. Food waste prevention, beach and littoral management, special practices for festival waste and large amount specific waste generating facilities (e.g., entertainment industry, cruises etc.) are of high importance. The future outlook may be concentrated on digitalizing of waste flows and using the “big data” concept for better and smarter waste management.

Abstract
Sea cucumbers are marine invertebrate animals that have high economic value. Indonesia is the main exporter of trepang over the world; however, this trepang export has not yet contributed to the improvement of community welfare. The low quality of trepang produced by Indonesia makes the economic value of trepang was still low. The low quality was caused by changes in processing stages due to decreasing the wild catch. Since the ban of the mini trawl use (cantrang), fishermen only process the bycatch sea cucumbers Holothuria scabra or sandfish. Trepang produce from sandfish is the most expensive one; the price can reach 3-5 million per kg. The study aims to analyze the quality and analyze the potential of developing the quality of trepang produce using sandfish. The decrease in sandfish catch volume after the Danish seine ban prohibits the stage changes in sandfish processing. Elimination of fumigation stage, the addition of storage in the refrigerator, addition of boiling, overcooking, and using excessive papaya leaves, were the main causes of less than the minimum value specified in SNI for appearance and odor characteristic. Although water, ash, protein, total plate count, Salmonella content, Lead, and Cadmium are in the decent range, the exporters still buy trepang at lower prices because exporters have to do reprocessing to improve the quality.

AbstractNedun wood (Pericopsis mooniana) is one of the quality local wood species in the Wallacea region. The existence of kayu kuku in their natural habitat is vulnerable by overexploitation and habitat loss. The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) has declared kayu kuku as one of the endangered species. Tissue culture is one way to conserve genetic resources on micropropagation. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of seed storage methods on nedun seed germination using in-vitro propagation. There are three methods of storage, which are stored with pericarp at room temperature (T0), storage with pericarp removal at room temperature (T1), storage with pericarp removal in 100C (T2). The variables observed were germination rate, speed of germination, first day of rooted and sprouted, number of roots, length of root, and shoot. ANOVA analysis showed significantly different at shoot length. The duncant test results showed the highest shoot length at T2 (8.75 cm). The largest germination rate was found at T1with an average of 82% and the highest germination speed was T1 (12.23% NG/etmal).

Abstract
Monitoring program is very important to evaluate the growth and performance of the seaweed K. alvarezii cultivated in the coastal areas. However, the program are rarely to be done in Indonesia continuously. In SE Sulawesi, tissue-cultured seedling are already been used by the seaweed farmers. The aims of this study were to evaluate the third period of growth monitoring program based on daily growth rate (DGR) and ratio of final wet weight and dry weight using tissue-cultured seedlings of the seaweed. This study was conducted in Bungin Coastal Waters, South Konawe. The result showed that the mean DGR of the seedlings were 7.01±0.63%.day−1 and significantly higher (p<0.05) than the two previous monitoring years (2017 and 2018). Ratio of final dry weight: wet weight was 9.42:1 and this ratio was also higher than the two previous years. In the present study, the epiphyte infection of Sargassum polycystum and an unidentified moss were also found. In conclusion, tissue-cultured seedling show good quality even though they have been used as seedlings for four years continuously.
