"In this study, modeling of the crossing point temperature (CPT) phenomenon in the low-temperature oxidation of coal was carried out using COMSOL Multiphysics®. Low-temperature oxidation can lead to spontaneous combustion of coal stockpiles. The CPT phenomenon was modeled with the kinetics data obtained from a prior laboratory experimental study. The coupling of the heat-transfer phenomenon through conduction and convection determined the thermal evolution model. In this case, coal received the initial heat of the oven temperature increases. As the coal temperature rose, the heat generated from oxidation was released into the environment via conduction and convection. Meanwhile, oxidation products and oxygen were transferred by convection and diffusion. The effects of moisture and the humidity were not considered. The outcomes of modeling were validated through comparison with the results of experimental tests, and the modeling result agreed well with the experiment tests, with temperature deviations of about 0.9%. The effects of airflow rate, oxygen concentration, porosity, and the initial temperature on low-temperature coal oxidation were also examined."

"Adanya perkembangan teknologi dan infrastruktur maupun sektor lainnya menyebabkan menaiknya tingkat kebutuhan energi, terkhusus energi listrik. Salah satu sumber daya alam yang dapat menghasilkan energi listrik adalah batubara. Indonesia termasuk negara penghasil batubara terbesar di dunia. Namun, pada umumnya batubara hasil tambang Indonesia adalah batubara dengan peringkat rendah atau dikenal sebagai batubara lignit. Batubara lignit baik digunakan sebagai bahan bakar dalam industri PLTU karena memiliki kandungan sulfur yang rendah sehingga dapat menghasilkan efisiensi pembakaran yang tinggi. Namun, sebelum dijadikan sumber bahan bakar untuk PLTU, batubara lignit harus melalui proses peningkatan kualitas. Peningkatan kualitas yang dimaksud adalah dengan cara dikeringkan. Pengeringan dilakukan untuk mengurangi kadar air yang tinggi di dalam batubara lignit sekitar 40-70 dari massa aslinya. Penelitian pengeringan batubara lignite berlangsung menggunakan sistem refrigerasi dan pemanas heater serta desain ruang pemanas menggunakan tambahan desain Fixed-Bed Reactor. Pengeringan dilakukan dengan menggunakan variasi humidity ratio dan suhu pemanas. Pada penelitian ini, data yang didapat kemudian diolah sehingga diketahui pengaruh humidity ratio dan suhu pemanas terhadap nilai k konstanta laju pengeringan. Nilai k akan digunakan untuk desain pengeringan batubara di masa yang akan datang.

The existence of technological and infrastructure developments increases energy needs, especially electrical energy. Commonly, electrical energy can be obtained from natural resources such as coal. Indonesia is one of the largest coal producers in the world. However, most of coal that Indonesia can produce are low rank coal. There are two types of low rank coal, they are sub bituminous and lignite coal. Lignite coal can be used as a fuel in Electric Steam Power Plant Industries because it has low sulfur content which can produce high combustion efficiency. On the other hand, lignite coal must be upgraded with a drying process to reduce its moisture content the lignite coals moisture is about 40 70 from its total mass. Lignite Coal drying enhances the heating value. In this study, the dryer uses a refrigeration system and heater. The drying chamber is designed with an additional Fixed Bed Reactor. Lignite Coal drying is operated in two variations of air condition. The variations are humidity ratio and heating temperature of dryers air condition. Based on this research, all the data resulted will be used to find the influence of humidity ratio and the heating temperature on the drying rate and activation energy of low rank. The drying rate constant and activation energy value will be used for future drainage design of low rank coal."

"Low carbon steel (AISI 1005) was coated by hot-dipping into a molten Al-10% Si bath at 700 °C for 18s. After hot-dipping treatment, the coating layers consisted of Al, Si, FeAl3,τ5-Fe2Al8Si, and Fe2Al5. The bare steel and the aluminized steel were isothermally oxidized at 700 °C in ethanol combustion product at atmospheric pressure for 49 h.The aluminized steel shows good performance in high temperatureoxidation because the formation of Al2O3layer on the coating surface. The growth of iron oxide nodules on the surface coating was accelerated by rapid outward diffusion of Fe-ions due to the presence of H2O-vapour generated by ethanol combustion. Thus, the oxidation rate of aluminized steel increased, resulting in a substantial mass-gain as the oxidation time increased. After longer exposure, the τ1-(Al,Si)5Fe3 phase was completely transformed to the FeAl in the outer layer. The FeAl formed near the steel substrate was due to Fe-atoms diffusing into the Fe2Al5 layer when the time and temperature increased."

"Paduan aluminium (Al) seri 7075-T735 telah menjadi pilihan utama dalam aplikasi industri otomotif karena kekuatan mekaniknya yang tinggi. Namun, tantangan utama yang dihadapi dalam penggunaannya adalah ketahanan korosi. Dalam upaya untuk meningkatkan ketahanan korosi paduan ini, diperlukan metode pelapisan. Salah satu metode yang menjanjikan adalah Plasma Electrolytic Oxidation (PEO), yang telah terbukti efektif dalam meningkatkan ketahanan korosi pada logam Al. Dalam penelitian ini diusulkan penyegelan pori pada lapisan PEO dengan melakukan post-treatment menggunakan oksida grafena (GO) menggunakan metode dip coating. GO dipilih karena sifatnya yang tidak reaktif secara kimia dan ramah lingkungan. PEO dilakukan di dalam elektrolit garam alkali dan aditif triethanolamine (TEA). Karakterisasi lapisan yang dihasilkan dilakukan melalui analisis morfologi dan komposisi menggunakan SEM-EDS serta XRD, pengujian ketahanan korosi dengan metode PDP dan EIS, Uji kekerasan Vickers, Uji Abrasi, dan hidrofobisitas dengan Uji Sudut-Kontak. Lapisan GO yang dihasilkan di permukaan coating PEO memiliki ketebalan 3,1 µm. Hasil karakterisasi XRD dan SEM-EDS mengkonfirmasi adanya lapisan GO di atas coating PEO. Selain itu, post-treatment meingkatkan nilai kekerasan dan ketahanan aus. Akan tetapi, post-treatment tidak memberikan pengaruh yang signifikan terhadap ketahanan korosi. Hal ini kemungkinan disebabkan oleh penutupan pori yang tidak merata akibat aglomerasi GO.

The aluminum alloy (Al) series 7075-T735 has become a top choice in the automotive industry due to its high mechanical strength. However, the primary challenge faced in its use is corrosion resistance. To enhance the corrosion resistance of this alloy, coating methods are required. One promising method is Plasma Electrolytic Oxidation (PEO), which has proven effective in enhancing the corrosion resistance of Al metals. This study proposes pore sealing on the PEO coating by performing post-treatment using graphene oxide (GO) through the dip coating method. GO was chosen for its chemically inert and environmentally friendly properties. PEO was carried out in an alkaline salt electrolyte with triethanolamine (TEA) as an additive. The resulting coating was characterized through morphology and composition analysis using SEM-EDS and XRD, corrosion resistance testing using the PDP and EIS methods, Vickers hardness testing, abrasion testing, and hydrophobicity testing with the contact angle test. The GO layer formed on the PEO coating surface has a thickness of 3.1 µm. The XRD and SEM-EDS characterization results confirmed the presence of the GO layer on top of the PEO coating. Additionally, the post-treatment increased the hardness and wear resistance values. However, the post-treatment did not significantly affect corrosion resistance. This is likely due to uneven pore sealing caused by GO agglomeration."
