The increasing use of conventional plastic has been creating some big problems, ranging from the oil crisis as a raw material for production and accumulation unbiodegradable waste on earth. One promising measures to handle problem is environmentally–friendly biodegradable plastic, made renewable materials. aim this project characterize properties bio-plastic banana peel. process begins with ext...

This work represents a comprehensive analysis of pedada fruit (Sonneratia caseolaris) as less desirable fruit, but valuable content such pectin which obtained through extraction using microwave assisted (MEA) method. Pectin is water-soluble fiber widely used functional component in the food and pharmaceutical industry. The focuses on comparison profile from Kepok banana peel. In addition, effec...

A modified-QuEChERS method to determine kresoxim-methyl in banana and soil was developed validated via high-performance liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS). The dissipation behavior, residue distribution, risk assessment of were further investigated based on this method. behavior described by using first-order kinetics its half-life, 4.8–5.7 days 5.5–6.5 days, respective...

In the Amazon region, there is no information on the fertilization of banana plants with boron (B). Besides this, the extractant (hot water) currently used to test B concentrations has many limitations. The aim of this work was to study the effect of B on the fruit yield and quality of banana plants of the Cavendish (AAA) sub-group, grown in dystrophic Yellow Latosol (Oxisol or Xanthic Ferralso...

A lipase producing bacterium, Bacillus cereus MSU AS was isolated from the gut of a marine fish Sardinella longiceps. In total, seven agricultural waste substrates (coconut oil cake, neem oil cake, onion skin waste, wheat bran, jack fruit waste, banana skin peels and pomegranate skin peel) were selected for solid state production of lipase by B. cereus MSU AS. Among the tested substrates, onion...

This study aims to determine suitable start-up conditions and inoculum sources for thermophilic anaerobic digestion. Within days of incubation MSW at 55°C, methane was produced at a high rate. In an attempt to narrow down which components of typical MSW contained the thermophilic methanogens, vacuum cleaner dust, banana peel, kitchen waste, and garden waste were tested as inoculum for thermophi...
