Jambi City has a Sludge Treatment Plant (IPLT) located in Talang Bakung. IPLT Talang Bakung processes sludge from household septic tanks. The processing consists of 1 anaerobic pond, 3 facultative ponds and 3 maturation ponds. The result of processing at IPLT is water that can be discharged into water bodies and sludge. The sludge still can be used, but it must be processed first. One of the sludge processing is a composting process. The composting process consists of two types, namely the composting process aerobically and anaerobically. This study aimed to compare the results of aerobic and anaerobic composting from IPLT sludge mixed with organic matter. Compost characteristics that are reviewed in this study are physical characteristics, those are water content and biological characteristics, namely pathogenic bacteria. The parameters measured in this study were the temperature, pH and number of Fecal Coliform bacteria at the beginning and end of the study

Luk Ulo Melange Complex is a Pre-Tertiary rock formation consisting of various lithological background and complicated geological structure. Located in Northern Kebumen Regency, this rock is originally interpreted as products of tectonic process caused by paleo-subduction between Indian Oceanic Plate beneath Eurasian Plate in Cretaceous age. According to previous study on geological surface investigation shows that the melange complex is tectonically overlain by Tertiary sedimentary formation. On the contrary, geophysical study of the subsurface condition of the area is still under discussion due to limited of measured data. In order to obtain detailed subsurface image, gravity profiling was measured and interpreted across both Tertiary and pre-Tertiary rock. Frequency domain filter and designed moving average filter were used to separate residual and regional anomaly. The results denote gravity value of residual anomaly varying from -5 to +5 mGal, while regional anomaly is ranging from 150-180 mGal respectively. The preliminary interpretation was developed by taking into account the geological information and also the data that was collected during field campaign. Overall, high gravity anomaly is interpreted as diabase intrusion in the middle of research area. Meanwhile, low gravity anomaly indicated clay rich rock material related to matrix content of Luk-Ulo Melange Complex in the northern area.

Indonesia is the largest country of oil palm production in the world. The oil palm by-product is still containing almost 80% of carbohydrates, such as cellulose and hemicellulose. This study aimed to optimize the enzymatic degradation of oil palm leaves in order to achieve zero waste of oil palm biomass by-product. Sodium hydroxide (NaOH) solution was used to isolate hemicellulose extraction from oil palm leaves. Various concentrations of NaOH such as 2 M, 2.5 M, 3 M, 3.5 M and 4 M and the reflux times of 2 hours, 4 hours, and 6 hours were used to optimize hemicellulose extraction. The optimum condition for hemicellulose extraction was 3 M NaOH and reflux time was 6 hours, while the yield at that condition was 48.94 % (w/w). The extracted hemicellulose is then hydrolyzed by a xylanolytic enzyme from recombinant Escherichia coli DH5α (namely pTP510). Temperatures of incubation were varied 50°C, 60°C, 70°C, and 80°C for 24 hours at pH 6. The hydrolysis result was analyzed using High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC). Xylose was produced at an optimum temperature of 60°C (120.231 ppm), arabinose at 50°C (26.265 ppm) whereas xylo-oligosaccharide at 50°C (280.465 ppm).

Mangrove forests have an important function in human life that cannot be replaced by other functions. The existence of mangrove forests has six main functions, namely biological, ecological, physical, social, economic and chemical functions. This article discusses the description of mangrove forest management in meeting the needs of the economic and social functions of the fishing communities on the coast of Merauke Regency, Papua Province, which were reviewed descriptively using relevant literature studies. In terms of economic function, mangrove forests provide economic value for fishing communities because mangrove forests become habitat for crabs, fish and other marine biota that are captured and sold as the main source of family income. In addition, the use of mangrove forests by fishermen on the coast is used as firewood and building materials. The high utilization of mangrove forests by coastal communities that ignores ecological sustainability causes damage to mangrove forests that threatens the sustainability of ecological functions. Damage to mangrove forests in Merauke in the period 2000-2005 was recorded as wide as 2,416 ha while in the 2005-2010 period damage reached 2,233 ha of the total area of the Merauke mangrove forest which reached 216,001.95 Ha or 6.98% of the Merauke forest area. Based on this, the management of mangrove forest utilization needs to get more attention from various parties so that the ecological function of mangrove forests as a condition of sustainable development, especially for fishing communities on the coast, can be realized in Merauke Regency.

The need for quick analysis for road pavement survey is inevitable, especially in a developing country. A new data collection method by using small format photo, which is recorded by drone is developed. The function of drone is not only for photographic purposes, but also developed to measure and record road damage. Digital aerial photogrammetric methods are developed faster than before. A small format areal imagery based on pixel size is developed for this study, so that the degree of road damage can be obtained quickly. In order to obtain a maximum pixel size to detect a maximum damage level of 1 cm, the shooting is done at a height of 24 m drone from the road surface. The result of road damage measured by measuring distance through image is then tested based on the measured sample, directly in the field with a trust level of 97.83%. These results show that the accuracy of road damage measurements made above high resolution photo images is very effective for data collection of road damage. Analysis of Condition Priority can be obtained in one day in complement with contour map and road level, while in previous time it is done within a week without contour map and level.

Feasibility of developing a geothermal project depends on the financial return generated from the investment. One of the strategies to achieve optimum return is formulating a financial model with a high level of confidence. Technical input parameters in the financial model are determined by the amount of available geothermal reserve in the form of a field development scenario. The best method for predicting geothermal reserve is a numerical simulation. The objective of this study is to determine the electricity tariff to generate 30 MW, 60 MW, and 110 MW which meet the 50% of the Rate of Return value will be equal or not exceed 16% (P50) for a specific geothermal field with a probabilistic approach. This study started with determining the technical input parameters: the number of production wells; makeup wells; and injection wells from each development scenarios based on numerical simulation result that has been studied by another researcher. The electricity tariff that meets the P50 of Rate of Return at 16% was calculated for those scenarios. Then, the tariffs were evaluated based on the Average Cost of Electricity Generation (BPP) on the relevant local grid. The result shows that the tariff or/and generation cost need to be negotiated. Moreover, total investment and economic indicators forecasting indicated that the investment was attractive. Lastly, sensitivity analysis shows that Rate of Return strongly affected by well drilling cost and power plant cost (EPCC).

The right of geothermal field concession in Indonesia is obtained by tender as per Law No. 21/2014 Article 18. In the submitted proposal, the developer candidates shall mention the plan of field development strategy, while available data is limited due to a preliminary survey or preliminary survey and exploration were just performed. Then the developer candidates must be able to formulate the financial condition of the project so that the field utilization not only sustains but also produces appropriate profits. This paper discussed some regulations which are related to the economics of geothermal development project in Indonesia and a simple example of financial modelling with a probabilistic approach using Microsoft Excel Monte Carlo simulation and analysis tool. The input data were some technical assumptions such as installed capacity, steam fraction, steam specific consumption (SSC), well's capacity, well's success ratio, and financial assumptions such as well's price, power plant construction's cost, operation and maintenance cost, and others. The output of modelling were NPV (Net Present Value), IRR (Internal Rate of Return) and parameters that were sensitive to both values, whether financially or technically. The result of simulation showed from the financial aspect, wells and power plant cost were the most sensitive parameters in IRR calculation, while well's capacity and steam fraction were the most sensitive parameters from the technical aspect.

Design teaching which is part of the system development life cycle, both information systems and application systems is very important to be taught, learned and understood in the informatics engineeringstudyprogram. System design teaching in private universities in Indonesia whose students are very diverse in terms of abilities and skills require teaching materials, lecture strategies, quality of lecturers and facilities that must also be able to adapt to the challenges and complexity in teaching. The study of system design teaching uses Hevner's information systems research framework which includes the steps of constructing artifacts in the form of constructs, models, methods, instances and evaluation of artifacts using case study in informatics engineering lecture. The use of the framework is intended to support business strategies and processes in studyprograms and to ensure the relevance of research. The result of research is a model and evaluation of the model. First, this research will produce a system design teaching model that can be used as a reference in the informatics engineeringstudyprogram to produce graduates with good literacy, skills using the stages of system design, understanding user needs and system design capabilities. Second, evaluating the model that has been built by applying it to the case study on human computer interaction lecture and measuring the results of lectures to improve the quality of lecture material, teaching and students.

The Sawahtambang Sandstone Formation of Sawahlunto, Indonesia has hitherto never been studied in detail to ascertain its depositional processes and its palaeoenvironment. The Sawahtambang Sandstone has more than 394 m thickness which consists of conglomeratic sandstone, sandstone, and clay-silt intercalation within which six lithofacies types (St, Sp, Sh, Ss, Fl, and Fm) appear creating iterated fining upward sequence. Herewith, this paper aims to replenish the avantgarde sedimentological interpretation of the Sawahtambang Sandstone in the intermontane basin of Indonesia based on outcrops along the Trans-Sumatra Highway. The study is attained through facies identification based on stratigraphic measuring section or outcrop profile, studio analysis consists of log analysis and superposition reconstruction, and architectural element delineation according to facies association. Structures in clay-silt facies consist of lamination and fissile whereas in the sand grained include planar and trough cross-bedding, planar lamination and granule lag, which depicts a lower-flow-regime sand channel. The architectural elements that made from facies association are identified into five distinct elements (multi-storey channel, single storey channels, sand bedforms, laminated sand sheet, and floodplain fines), which present a fluvial environment. The relation of the architectural elements demonstrates that the Sawahtambang Sandstone uphold a record of the braided river system that flowed from southwest to northeast in the southwestern part of Ombilin Basin. The dominance of coarse-grained (channel and sandy bedform) element over clay-silt grained (laminated sand sheet and floodplain fines) element and the extensive appearance of thick amalgamated channel elements reinforce the interpretation of a low-sinuous braided fluvial system in which the stacking pattern shows the channel bodies accumulated both lateral via lateral accretion of point bar and via vertical amalgamated streams.
