ABSTRACT The beans used in this study were cowpea varieties with the Latin name (Vigna unguiculata ssp. Cylindrica) that are widely known as a protein source where 100 grams of nagara beans contains 22.9 grams of protein. This study aimed to determine the effect of the type and stabilizer concentrations on the quality of probiotic drinks of nagara beans. The types of stabilizers used in this study were Carboxy Methyl Celulose (CMC) and Xanthan gum. This research was carried out using Randomized Block Design (RBD), which consisted of two factors, namely factor I Stabilizing concentrations: 0.5%, 0.75% and 1% stabilizing factor II: CMC and xanthan gum with 3 replications , so that there were 18 times the experimental unit. Based on the SNI (2981: 2009), the best probotic drink was obtained in 1% CMC treatment with physical quality including liquid-viscous appearance, normal/distinctive smell, sour/distinctive taste, homogeneous consistency and gray color. As well as protein content of 1.7%, ash 0.1%, total lactic acid 0.7%, acidity level (pH) is 3.6 and total LAB 2.3 x 1011 CFU/ml.

Lignocellulosic biomass is a renewable source containing three main components: cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin. The three main components can be processed into products that have high added value. Sources of lignocellulosic biomass includes wood, grass, industrial waste, and agricultural residu. Compared to other source, industrial wastes have a higher potential to be utilized without competition for other needs and assist industry in waste treatment. The production of sugar palm starch generate biomass waste which is disposed into the environment which disturbs the surrounding community and is not utilized. To utilize lignocellulosic biomass, pretreatment is a very important step. Hydrothermal is an environmentally friendly pretreatment, without using harmful chemicals in the process. The purpose of this study was to determine the level of solubility of hemicellulose in the hydrothermal pretreatment process of sugar palm starch industrial waste. The hydrothermal method used is liquid hot water with temperature and time parameters, optimization analysis using response surface methodology (RSM). The result obtained is that the liquid hot water pretreatment method is effective in dissolving the hemicellulose from the sugar palm starch industrial waste. The relationship between variables on hemiselulosa response is modeled Y = 7.7-3.04 X1 – 5.67X2 + 0.4250 X1X2 + 1.06 X1 2 + 3.61 X2 2. The optimization results showed the optimum temperature at 195.91°C for 36.725 minutes, with a hemicellulose dissolution of 81.59% and the level of desirability is 0.852.
World vegetable oil needs to be increased every year along with population growth. Vegetable oil which potential to supply is palm oil because it has the highest productivity compared to other vegetable oil sources. Behind the rapid development of palm oil, came negative issue about environmental damage especially the increase of greenhouse gas emissions caused by the palm oil industry. This research aimed to calculate the potential of greenhouse gas caused by palm oil mill effluent (POME) treatment in the anaerobic pond. The method used is by capture methane and carbon dioxide at the float chamber then gas chromatography analyzed. The results showed that the highest methane and carbon dioxide released at night (10.00 – 11.00 pm). The average potential released methane is 9441.28 mg C-CH4 m-2h-1 and Carbon dioxide is 5920.74 mg C-CO2 m-2h-1.
The biosorption of methylene blue onto sugar palm dregs was studied in batch biosorption system to know the equilibrium and kinetics. The operating variables studied were initial of solution pH and biosorbent dose. The Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm models were used for modelling the biosorption equilibrium. The experimental was found that the increase solution pH increased the adsorption capacity from 1.72 mg g−1 at pH 2 to 15.71 mg g−1 at pH 8. The dye removal was from 54% to 93% for an increase in the biosorbent dose from 0.5 gL−1 to 2 gL−1 while adsorption capacity was reduced from 21.75 to 9.3 mg g−1. The equilibrium studied that was well interpreted by the Langmuir model with monolayer sorption capacity (qm) is 23.866 mg g−1. In kinetic studies the fits of pseudo-first order, pseudo-second order, Ritchie and intraparticle diffusion kinetic models were investigated. It was obtained that the biosorption process followed the pseudo-second order rate kinetics.
