Abstrak. Biogas merupakan salah satu energi alternatif yang sekarang banyak dikembangkan. Selain murah, biogas juga ramah lingkungan. Metan (CH4) merupakan unsur gas yang menentukan kualitas biogas. Bila biogas memiliki kadar metan yang tinggi maka biogas tersebut akan memiliki nilai kalor yang tinggi. Oleh kerana itu kemurnian biogas tersebut penting. Sehingga perlu melakukan penelitian pemurnian biogas yang bertujuan untuk meningkatkan kadar gas metan (CH4) dengan rancangan alat pemurni dan untuk meningkatkan nilai guna biogas. Metode yang dilakukan adalah adsorpsi menggunakan kombinasi arang aktif dan zeolit alam dengan perbandingan, 30 : 70 m/m, 50 : 50 m/m dan 70 : 30 m/m dengan waktu pemurnian selama 30, 60 dan 90 menit. Hasil penelitian diperoleh alat purifier biogas yang terbuat dari pipa paralon yang dilapisi fiber dengan dimensi panjang 60 cm dan diameter 10 cm. Semakin lama waktu pemurnian maka konsentrasi gas metan yang dihasilkan akan semakin tinggi yaitu pada lama pemurnian 90 menit. Kombinasi arang aktif dan zeolit dengan perbandingan 50 : 50 m/m merupakan kombinasi terbaik dalam melakukan pemurnian biogas.

ABSTRAK Guludan horizontal (searah kontur) telah terbukti sangat efektif menurunkan laju erosi tanah pada lahan kentang, namun efektifitasnya dalam meningkatkan kualitas tanah maupun produktivitas tanaman yang optimal perlu dikaji lebih mendalam. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi pengaruh kombinasi mulsa dan pupuk terhadap erosi dan kehilangan nutrisi tanah pada lahan kentang dengan aplikasi bio-arang dan guludan horizontal. Sebanyak 6 demplot kentang (6 m x 3 m) dengan aplikasi bio-arang (5 ton/ha) dan guludan horizontal (5 lajur) disiapkan masing-masing untuk perlakuan mulsa plastik-pupuk organik (MPO), mulsa jeramipupuk organik (MJO), tanpa mulsa-pupuk organik (TMO/kontrol), mulsa plastikpupuk anorganik (MPK), mulsa jerami-pupuk anorganik (MJK), dan tanpa mulsapupuk anorganik (TMK/kontrol). Laju aliran permukaan (runoff) dan kehilangan tanah (soil loss) pada setiap demplot diukur pada setiap kejadian hujan dengan menggunakan kolektor sedimen, serta kadar N-total dan P-total-nya dianalisis di laboratorium masing-masing dengan menggunakan metode Kjeldahl dan Kolorimetri. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa MPK mampu menahan laju runoff dan soil loss lebih baik daripada yang lain atau masing-masing 11.9-18.1% dan 41.8-48.1% lebih efektif dibanding kontrol. Lebih jauh, MPK dapat menekan kehilangan N-total dan P-total lebih signifikan daripada yang lain atau masing-masing 30.1-38.9% dan 31.9-44.8% lebih baik dibanding kontrol. Dengan demikian, MPK dipandang sebagai kombinasi yang sesuai untuk budidaya kentang dengan aplikasi bio-arang dan guludan horizontal. KATA KUNCI Budidaya kentang; erosi tanah, guludan horizontal; kehilangan nutrisi tanah; kombinasi mulsapupuk

ABSTRACT Information on shelf -life (expiration period) of food products is one of the information that must be included by producers on food product packaging labels. Determining the shelf life of food products can be done by storing the product in actual storage conditions. This method produces the most appropriate results, but requires a long time and a large cost. Estimating method of shelf life can be done using the AcceleratedShelf-life Testing (ASLT) method, which is by storing food products in an environment that causes them to break down quickly, both at higher temperature or humidity conditions. The purpose of this study are (1) to estimate the shelf life of crystal coconut sugar with two different types of packaging materials and use the Accelerated Shelf Life Testing method (ASLT) ,(2) to provide quality assurance regarding the safety of brown sugar. The variables observed in this study are: the initial moisture content of the product (Mo, g H2O/g solids), the product equilibrium moisture content (Me, g H2O/g solids), slope/slope of the isothermic sorption curve (b), critical water content (Mc, g H2O/g solids), vapor permeability constant of bottled wate (k/x, g/m2.day.mmHg), area packaging surface (A, m2), dry weight of packaged products (Ws, g solids), saturated water vapor pressure (Po,mmHg).
