"This study utilized an eco-friendly heterogeneous catalyst in the synthesis of ester via esterification of ethanol andacetic acid under refluxing conditions. The amount of acetic acid converted was determined by titrimetric method.Aluminum pillared material was produced from natural clay by ion exchange and calcined at 473 K. Powdered X-Raydiffraction (PXRD), Fourier Transform Infra-Red (FT-IR) and BET gas sorption analysis were employed to characterizethe pillared material. The result revealed that significant improvement on physicochemical characteristics of the naturalclay occurred as a result of pillaring. The results also revealed that the conversion of acetic acid was dependent on thecatalyst/feed ratio of 2:2:1. The maximum conversion of acetic acid of 95.79% was obtained at the reaction temperatureof 363 K and 150 minutes. The pillared clay material is more active in the conversion of acetic acid than the naturalbentonite clay. This study illustrated that pillared bentonite clay is an eco-friendly solid catalyst for use in theproduction of chemical precursors for several industrial products.Penggunaan Katalis Ramah Lingkungan dalam Produksi Ester.

"Beberapa penelitian meneliti pengaruh ecolabel pada intensi pembelian produk berkemasan ramah lingkungan, namun hanya sedikit yang meneliti pengaruh ecolabel dalam konteks kredibilitas ecolabel tersebut. Studi ini bertujuan untuk mengeksplorasi faktor yang menentukan intensi pembelian customer pada produk berkemasan ramah lingkungan dalam konteks produk FMCG di Indonesia. Survei ini dilakukan terhadap lebih dari 500 responden yang telah membeli produk FMCG sebelumnya. Studi ini menemukan bahwa Green Price, Green Advertising, Green Packaging, Greenwashing, dan Ecolabel menjadi faktor yang mempengaruhi minat beli dengan pengaruh Greenwashing yang mengurangi minat pembelian pada customer. Mengingat baru beberapa penelitian yang membahas topik ini, terlebih di Indonesia, maka hasil penelitian ini diharapkan dapat memberikan pandangan baru bagaimana ecolabel memberikan peran yang penting bagi kredibilitas produk berkemasan ramah lingkungan serta gambaran bagaimana bauran pemasaran mempengaruhi perilaku pembelian customer FMCG di Indonesia.

Several studies have examined the influence of ecolabels on the purchase intention of environmentally friendly packaged products, but few have examined the influence of ecolabels in the context of the credibility of ecolabels. This study aims to explore the factors that determine customer purchase intention in environmentally friendly packaged products in the context of FMCG products in Indonesia. This survey was conducted on more than 500 respondents who had purchased FMCG products before. This study found that Green Price, Green Advertising, Green Packaging, Greenwashing, and Ecolabel are factors that affect buying interest with the influence of Greenwashing which reduces buying interest in customers. Considering that there are only a few studies that discuss this topic, especially in Indonesia, the results of this study are expected to provide a new view of how ecolabels play an important role in the credibility of environmentally friendly packaged products and an overview of how the marketing mix affects the purchasing behavior of FMCG customers in Indonesia."

This study aims to analyse the tension force and production efficiency of a sorghum drilling machine to support eco-friendly systems. Sorghum, as a drought-resistant food crop, has significant potential in sustainable agriculture. The research employs an experimental approach to measure the tension force of the drilling machine at various speeds and drilling depths. Additionally, production efficiency is evaluated by comparing the machine's output to energy consumption and operational time. The results indicate that optimizing the machine parameters can enhance efficiency and reduce environmental impact. This finding is expected to contribute to the development of more sustainable agricultural technologies and support the implementation of eco-friendly farming practices. Furthermore, this research includes a comparison with conventional drilling machines in the context of eco-friendly systems. The sorghum drilling machine is designed with more efficient technology, resulting in lower tension force and increased productivity. The study measures the machine's performance across different speeds and drilling depths, while also assessing production efficiency through energy consumption and operational time analysis. The findings show that the sorghum drilling machine not only optimizes output with lower energy consumption but also reduces the carbon footprint compared to conventional drilling machines. These results make a significant contribution to the advancement of sustainable agricultural technology and support more eco-friendly farming practices. "

"The electronic industry’s need for semiconductor material is increasing each year due to technology’s rapid development. Semiconductor material has an electric conductivity of approximately 10-8-103 S/cm, and it is used as an important component in electronic devices. Semiconductor material is generally made of plastic modified with conductive filler. The problem with using semiconductor material is that the discarded components can be plastic waste that requires significant time to degrade; therefore, the synthesis of semiconductor material from natural substances must be observed. One of these natural substances is nata de coco fiber modified with a conductive filler. The impregnation method is used in the synthesis of the nata de coco fiber composite. The fillers used in this study are ZnO and silica, and the size of the filler particle and the concentration of the filler suspension are used as variations. From the SEM-EDX results, it can be seen that the filler is successfully deposited on the nata de coco fiber. Silica filler gives a higher conductivity than ZnO filler because of its lower energy band gap. The highest conductivity result is obtained from the composite impregnated in a 0.3-0.4 mm particle diameter of filler with 3% w/v suspension concentration for three days, producing the conductivity result of 6.95×10-6 S/cm for ZnO filler and 10.1×10-6 S/cm for silica filler, or about 16 times higher than the conductivity of nata de coco fiber."
