This research explores the use of a modified infrared (IR) camera equipped with a high-pass filter to distinguish between natural objects (vegetation) and artificial objects (synthetic military uniforms) in an environment where vegetation makes objects difficult to detect. In military operations, especially guerrilla warfare in tropical forests, detecting enemies camouflaged in vegetation makes it difficult to distinguish targeted objects. Visible light cameras usually struggle to distinguish between synthetic and natural colors. This methodology involves the use of Python programming and various libraries, such as Computer Vision (CV), to process images captured by modified cameras. A graphical user interface (GUI) was developed to analyze color values, focusing on the red, green, and blue spectra. The results show that the modified IR camera can more effectively separate synthetic and natural object color peaks compared to a standard visible light camera, offering potential applications in military reconnaissance and sniper operations. This research demonstrates how image processing can improve object detection in complex environments.

Palm oil consumption has risen due to an increasing preference for vegetable oil. However, this growth in the palm oil industry has given rise to various challenges, especially concerning environmental issues and emissions. This study evaluated the ecological consequences of using empty palm fruit bunches in plantations and furnaces and utilizing solid waste from empty fruit bunches as a renewable energy source. The research findings indicate that, for a 30 tons/hour capacity, the total greenhouse gas emissions (GWP) in the furnace and plantation management amount to 234.72 kg CO2 eq and 234.69 kg CO2 eq, respectively. The acidification impact (0.51 kg SO2 eq) and the eutrophication (0.95 kg PO4 eq) in the plantation and the furnace. For a 60 tons/hour capacity, the total GWP increases to 328.59 kg CO2 eq in the furnace and 328.37 kg CO2 eq in the plantation. Furthermore, acidification (0.73 kg SO2 eq) and eutrophication (1.33 kg PO4 eq) impacts persist in both the plantation and furnace stages. The primary concern highlighted in this research is furnace management, particularly concerning the oil content. Additionally, the production stage emphasizes the importance of raw materials as another critical hotspot. The study recommends implementing technological changes and adopting preventive maintenance practices to minimize the oil content in empty fruit bunches to mitigate the environmental impact during crude palm oil (CPO) production stages; utilizing empty fruit bunches as renewable energy presents an option to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

The continued role of the green management supply chain has become a parameter of the company’s sustainability. The role that is realized is to provide effectiveness in terms of reducing risks arising from the supply chain. Risks that arise deserve to be identified by the achievement of reducing supply chain risks that occur. The purpose of this study is to model the risks of green supply chain management using the house of risk method. This method as an integration of FMEA-QFD. The product used as a case is snail chips from PT. QRP. Due to the ineffective supply chain, various risks arise where this risk in addition to harming the company also harms the snail material supply vendors. Identification of risks by occurrence and risk agents totaling 22 types. The findings serve as a basis for constructing potential risks modeled with a causal diagram. It was found that the highest case parameter was that there was poor communication with long responses, one of which was. As a result of this case, the prevention action indicator can be clearly known with consideration of 6M (man, machine, material, measurement, method and mother nature). That the preventive action relationship with 6M can create a green supply chain design according to existing conditions. The virtues of the design formed are considering 6M supported by the role of ISO.

This article examines the issue of load imbalance in electric power distribution systems, which leads to current flow in the neutral conductor of transformers. The study aims to investigate the impact of load imbalance on neutral current and losses in the transformer. The analysis reveals that a load imbalance of 24% during the day results in a large neutral current of 109 A and increased losses due to neutral current flowing to the ground (8.47%). The findings highlight the significance of load balancing in reducing losses and improving the efficiency of electric power distribution systems. The study provides insights for researchers and practitioners to develop strategies for load balancing to mitigate the effects of load imbalance on transformer losses.

In Central Lombok District, the allocation of funds for the rehabilitation of elementary schools is very small compared to the number of schools that need reconstruction. The percentage of classroom rehabilitation work based on the target schools only reached 9.96%. Consequently, it needs to study to analyze the damage level of buildings and find out the most influenced criteria in formulating decisions for selecting school priorities that must be rehabilitated. Due to controlled aspects and standards are quite a lot and more sophisticated, accordingly the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) method is the proper method for solving these complex problems. The sample in this study was 13 of the 25 schools that received special funds in 2018. The application of the AHP method was preceded by a survey involving experts who were competent in their fields. The results showed that the number of schools with moderate damage was six and severely damaged as many as seven schools. At the same time, based on the order of priority, building repairs are determined by the most influential criteria, namely the level of damage and primary education data.

Not only at the water treatment process, disinfection is required for the inactivation of pathogen microorganisms in wastewater treatment before it is released to the waterbodies or for recycling purposes. During the disinfection process by chlorination, it found the formation of harmful disinfection by-products (DBPs). DBPs formed because of the reaction of inorganic and organic matter as precursors with chlorine/chloramine. The aim of this research is to analyze the potential formation of Carbonaceous Disinfection By-products (C-DBPs) as the most DBPs in the water and Nitrogenous Disinfection By-products (N-DBPs) as the most DBPs of the wastewater. Most DBPs have precursors from natural organic matter (NOM) and the effluent of sewage treatment contributes to increasing the DBPs precursor. The review method start with identifying DBPs precursor, potential formation of DBPs, factor affecting the formation DBPs, and finding the advanced technologies that are appropriate to remove DBPs and their precursors. It found that trihalomethanes (THMs) is the most widely found in water treatment such as chloroform, bromodichloromethane, and bromoform. N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) is one of N-DBPs that most presence in polluted water and also haloacetonitriles (HANs), haloacetamides (HAcAms), Nitrosoamine (NAs), cyanogen halides (CNX), halonitromethanes (HNMs), N-nitrosomethylethylamine (NMEA). The result shows that disinfection plays a role of formation DBPs in water and wastewater treatment. DBPs have potential health risks for the human body because they are genotoxic and carcinogenic. Physicochemical treatment can remove the precursor of DBPs and advanced treatment enhances the removal of DBPs.
