Sectio is a surgical operation to help pregnant women give birth by making an incision in the abdominal wall (laparotomy) and uterus (hysterectomy). Compared with regular births, which only cause about 9% more suffering, births by cesarean section cause about 27.3% more pain. Pharmacology and non-pharmacology can be used together to treat pain. Within 24 hours after a caesarean section, patients can experience a five times greater reduction in pain thanks to lavender aromatherapy. There are no risks associated with using the main active components of lavender oil, linalyl acetate, and linalool, which may provide a calming effect. When lavender aromatherapy is inhaled, the compounds it contains trigger the hypothalamus to produce endorphins which can calm and soothe. Lavender aromatherapy also has properties that make it antibacterial, analgesic, antidepressant and antispasmodic. By offering and using lavender aromatherapy, this research approach is descriptive and takes the form of a case report. The aim of this research is to determine whether the use of lavender aromatherapy can help patients after giving birth by caesarean section reduce their discomfort. After receiving lavender aromatherapy, the research findings changed from a scale of 7 to 3. Research findings show that the use of lavender aromatherapy can help postpartum patients undergoing cesarean section reduce their discomfort.

Tensions between Indonesia and Malaysia are increasing due to the ownership claims of each country over the Ambalat block area, the Ambalat block area which is now a dispute between the States of Indonesia-Malaysia is not a land area but is located at a sea depth of 2500 meters on the continental shelf geographically, block Ambalat is a natural continuation of the Indonesian Kalimantan mainland which is in the Tarakan Basin spreading area which has the potential as oil and gas.

The use of biomass as a renewable source for the development of bioenergy and biomaterials can also address the increasing needs of the community. Biomass is a more environmentally friendly alternative to oil and coal, which can replace non-renewable fuels. Biomass raw material with a high calorific value, is usually used as a mixing base or the main raw material in the manufacture of biobriquettes. The characteristics of briquettes made from coconut shell charcoal with starch adhesive are varied in dimensions and particle size of the charcoal. One of the adhesives that can be used to glue charcoal particles together to get compact briquettes is starch. This study aims to determine the effect of variations in the dimensions of charcoal and particle size used on the characteristics of briquettes made from coconut shell with starch adhesive. The method used was an experiment with Completely Randomized Design (CRD) testing three repetitions. The independent variables in this study were dimensional variations, namely cubes and pyramids, as well as variations in particle size using mesh 60, 80, and 100. The dependent variables in this study were the values of moisture content, ash content, destruction index, and heating value. From the results of testing a completely randomized design using ANOVA, it was found that the dimensions of the briquettes affected the ash content and flammability of the briquettes, while the particle size affected the moisture content, ash content, and flammability of the briquettes. Both dimensions and particle size have no effect on the briquette destruction index
