Bioethanol is an alternative fuel that has a high octane value of around 100 to 110, making it difficult to be applied to spark ignition engines directly. So, it is necessary to make adjustments, including increasing combustion efficiency and thermal efficiency of the combustion chamber by increasing the compression ratio and adjusting the ignition system, both in single spark ignition (SSI) and dual spark ignition (DSI) types. The study aims to determine the effect of SSI and DSI applications on engine performance, specific fuel consumption (SFC), and exhaust emissions using 96% and 99% levels of bioethanol fuel.

Journal of Mechanical Engineering Science and Technology (JMEST)
The TiO2 film is immersed in a graphite oxide solution, preparing it for thermal reduction, which converts the graphite oxide to reduced graphene oxide (rGO). This process produces rGO hybrid TiO2 photoanodes for dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSC). rGO in the TiO2 structure prevents electron recombination and improves overall efficiency. The main advantage of this method is its ability to prevent loss of rGO during the sintering process, which is a common problem with other methods. The study investigated heating temperatures ranging between 300˚C, 350˚C, 400˚C, 450˚C, and 500˚C to determine optimal conditions. The presence of rGO in the photoanode structure …

Thermoplastic polyurethane round belts are widely used for conveyors in various industries, particularly in the food and beverage industry, due to their flexible and abrasion-resistant characteristics. These belts are also popular in manufacturing industries because of their ease of joint. However, a common issue arises when the conveyor belt breaks during the production process. This problem can be attributed to the lack of parameters in the belt joining process at companies. Operators do not have a standard parameter for the joining process. When there is an improper joining operation of an operator, the conveyor belt could fail earlier than the …

Carbon Nanotubes (CNTs) production so far has its own advantages and disadvantages. Some methods that can be used in producing CNTs are chemical vapor deposition (CVD), laser ablation, and arc discharge. The three methods have their own requirements, this causes different environmental impacts on each method. Studies into the environmental impact of the CNTs production process found that during thermal pretreatment of the reactant gas, more than 45 by-products were formed, including methane, volatile organic compounds, and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. Calculating the environmental impact of CNTs production method often has challenges in implementation, because each production process has different systems …
