Published: December 2023

Abstract
Upper-middle, and high-income countries continue to experience an increase in population, this is followed by an increase not only in food needs but also in energy needs. However, on the other hand, the decline in environmental quality continues to occur, such as a decrease in air and water quality and an increase in critical land. The area that needs attention is the Mamasa watershed ecosystem, the upstream area of the Saddang watershed, a priority watershed for restoration in Indonesia. Supposedly, the Mamasa Watershed should be a protected area, but currently, there are many activities marked by the existence of the center of the Mamasa capital. This study aims to map the community’s energy needs and analyze the potential for alternative fuels in the Mamasa watershed which are expected to be considered for the management of the Mamasa watershed based on the development of alternative energy sources in the future. The research method was carried out using a geographic information system (GIS) supplemented by surveys and literature studies. The survey was conducted through direct interviews with the community to identify the source and quantity of energy, and to analyze its relationship with the socio-economic characteristics of the community using chi-square. Furthermore, analysis of land suitability to identify the potential and directions for biofuel cultivation. The results showed that people in the Mamasa watershed still predominantly use firewood as an energy source. The chi-square test results show a significant relationship between the socio-economic characteristics of the respondents and their level of energy consumption, except for the number of dependents. The middle and downstream parts of the Mamasa watershed are potential locations for Nyamplung development. As for the middle section, there is potential for Kemiri Sunan, which can meet the community’s need for firewood and has the potential to rehabilitate critical land in the Mamasa watershed.

Published: December 2023

Abstract
Management of private forests in general is still traditional with various weaknesses of the farmers, including the limited area of private forests ranging from 0.25 – 1 hectare and in general they are not located in one stretch. Therefore, the results of private forest management have not fully provided proper income for farmers, namely in the range of 20-30 percent. Referring to an MTG (Master Tree Grower) approach, innovation was carried out in the development of agroforestry models in private forests by involving neighboring farmers in the form of farmer-to-farmer mentoring (F2FM) through community partnerships. The innovations carried out are in the form of implementing training results and increasing the capacity of private forest farmers to be market oriented in managing forests. Research was conducted in Bulukumba, South Sulawesi in 2018 which aims to find opportunities to increase farmers’ income through the development of innovative agroforestry. The research applied training, interview, observation and FGD (Focus Group Discussion) methods. The results of the research show that there is a change in the orientation of farmers in managing their forests and there are opportunities to increase income from these forests. Innovative agroforestry development can be an option for farmers to increase their income from private forest management.

Published: December 2023

Abstract
Barru Regency is an area with a relatively high frequency of landslides according to BNPB data for 2015. This can be seen in several incidents from 2017 to 2021. The purpose of this research is to identify and determine the level of vulnerability of landslides that occur in an area by utilizing the method Frequency Ratio. The Lisu watershed study area is a research study because it is included in the largest local watershed in Barru Regency. This study uses landslide occurrence point data by including nine factors that cause landslides such as land cover, slope, slope aspect, elevation, rainfall, curvature, distance from river, distance from fault, and lithology. These nine factors are divided into five classes, namely very low, low, medium, high, and very high. The results of the analysis show that the AUC model success rate and prediction accuracy are 0.80 and 0.83. The very high vulnerability to landslides is spread over the Tanete Riaja and Pujananting Districts. This indicates that the frequency ratio method is appropriate as a basis for analyzing the level of landslide vulnerability in the Lisu watershed.

Abstract
The endemic Sulawesi giant honey bee, Apis binghami, cannot be domesticated like other domesticated Apis genus bees. This bee is foraging for sources of nectar and pollen from plants around the tree where it is nesting. The purpose of this study is to identify the types of plant pollen in bee bread and honey as a means of identifying the food source of A. binghami forest bees and analyzing the category of honey they produce. The method used to extract pollen from honey and bee bread was acetolysis, an Erdtman method. The research found nine types of plant pollen in bee bread and seven in honey as food sources for A. binghami from samples collected from Bonto Manurung Village, Maros Regency. Aren palm (Arengan pinnata) pollen had the highest percentage frequency as a secondary pollen type group, along with mango (Mangifera sp.) and cotton wood tree (Ceiba petandra). Other types of plant pollen were classified as important minor pollen type and minor pollen type, resulting in honey from the hunting location of Bonto Manurung Village being categorized as multifloral honey.

Authors: Sadapotto A , Armidha N 
Published: December 2023

AbstractThe development of natural silk production is viewed as a promising endeavor with the potential to uplift local communities by utilizing abandoned forest lands. The national demand for silk has been steadily increasing over the years, yet production has been on a continuous decline. The decline can be attributed to various factors, one of which is the quality of silkworm eggs. The silkworm eggs commonly bred by farmers are no longer resistant to diseases. In order to ensure the sustainability of natural silk production in Soppeng District, the government has implemented a policy to distribute high quality silkworm eggs for free, imported directly from China. The research aims to assess the effectiveness of providing free silkworm eggs as assistance on the income levels of silkworm farmers. This study employs a quantitative descriptive analysis through interviews and observations conducted with 58 respondents from 8 different farmer groups. The finding of the research indicate that the distribution of subsidized silkworm eggs from China in the specific quantities has not been effective yet. The hatching ability of silkworm eggs distributed to farmers varies depending on the storage period. Silkworm eggs distributed immediately after import have a high hatching rate, whereas eggs distributed after being stored for a long time in the refrigerator have a low hatching rate. Silkworm egg importers must ensure high hatching rate of the distributed silkworm eggs to farmers The system for submitting proposals to farmer groups has been established in accordance with the guideline set by the local department of food crops, horticulture, plantations and food security.

Presently, the pandemic has caused the world’s most painful catastrophe in the last few decades, bringing shockwaves throughout healthcare systems, economies, and civilizations worldwide. Governments are concentrating on managing the sickness and rebuilding economies in the face of this unprecedented catastrophe. The energy industry was badly harmed as well, by recurrent lockdowns in the year 2020, with travel restrictions, commerce, and economic activity globally reducing by 4 percent and education in energy use. Although pandemic waves still continue, various protective programs such as giving of vaccinations, booster doses, etc. have allowed people, and countries, to resume. Global energy consumption is predicted to recover by 4.6 percent in the year 2021-22, bringing back to pre-covid era. The effects of the pandemic on clean energy products and transitions are still being determined. Access to clean energy is the lifeline to achieve quality of life, economic development, energy security, and societal upliftment. There is a need to shift from the use of a conventional source of energy to clean energy. The present paper investigates the influence of Covid-19, pandemic on global clean energy accessibility in general and Indian clean energy sector and solar industry in particular.

Experimental and FEA Analysis of Bonded Connection in Glass Fiber-reinforced Polymer Short Column
Authors: Srujan MJ , Srikanth Seelam 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
Glass Fibre Reinforced Polymer (GFRP) is a synthetically manufactured material that is derived by compressing multiple layers of glass fiber in a resin matrix. GFRPs can be used as compressive members and hold good compressive strength. These materials display a brittle mode of failure at maximum loading and this aspect is the major disadvantage of these materials. This study intends to tackle this disadvantage by designing and analyzing a connection method called non-bearing spliced connection by Eurocode 3 based on BS EN 1990 and BS EN 1991 guidelines. The connections are established using only bonding as the type of connection. There are two types of bonds established in this study based on the thickness of the epoxy used to establish the bonded connection. A 2 mm thick bond and a 5 mm thick bond are used to create 5 samples of each bond thickness samples. A detailed study of their behavior is established in this study by testing them manually and by using Finite Element Analysis (FEA). The required properties such as failure load, maximum displacement, stiffness, compressive strength, failure modes, and load versus displacement graph behavior are compared and explained in detail in this study.

Published: December 2023

Abstract
The composition and concentration of dioxins, furans, and agricultural chemicals in Dau Tieng reservoir sediments were determined to understand the horizontal distribution of PCDFs/Ds in 2020. The concentrations of agricultural chemicals in the reservoir sediment bed were negligible compared to the threshold (< 10 μg.kg-1, dry weight) and are not the source of PCDFs/Ds in the reservoir bed. This result proved that plant protection chemicals in the basin have been well controlled recently. PCDFs/Ds had negligible concentrations compared to the thresholds regulated by Vietnamese and international standards. The high concentrations of 1,2,3,4,6,7,8-HpCDD and OCDD were recorded at the site DT07, DT09, and DT12 with the order DT7 < DT9 < DT12. In addition, 2,3,4,6,7,8-HpCDF recorded at DT7 and DT9 with high concentrations is one of the most abundant congeners in cement factory wastewater. These results showed that PCDFs/Ds were mainly airborne from the North of the reservoir, where the cement factories could be the emission source, and spread toward the southwest. The PCDFs/Ds can also be transported between sampling sites in the reservoir bed due to differences in topographic elevation. The dioxin homologues distribution model in the sediments of Dau Tieng reservoir confirmed that the dioxins and furans in Dau Tieng reservoir sediments mainly come from atmospheric deposition.

Published: December 2023

Abstract
The construction industry contributes significant greenhouse gases to the climate by consuming vast amounts of cement. Researchers are looking at alternative cement methods to decrease the adverse effects, one of which is Geopolymer Concrete (GPC). The GPC is made from industrial waste materials high in silica and activated with sodium hydroxides (NaOH) to form sodium silicate (Na2SiO3) because Geo polymer is a material that is just two decades old and is an area of extensive research. To study the effect of the addition of cement to GPC’s mechanical properties by replacing up to 50% of the ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBFS) and fly ash with ten per cent increments. The outcomes are contrasted with the Geo Polymer Concrete control mix. For this study, an analysis of activators to fly ash at 0.35, NaOH to Na2SiO3 at 2.5, and the molarity of sodium hydroxide was set at 8M. At different ages, the compressive strength of cubes was calculated, as well as their split and flexural strengths following a 28-day curing period. The findings revealed that adding cement to the mix improves the mechanical properties. The best results are obtained at 40% cement, fly ash, and GGBFS at 60%.
