The combustion of fossil fuels causes an increase in the release a group of gases found in the earth atmosphere that trap heat and contribute to the greenhouse effect, which in turn contributes to the occurrence of global warming. The advancement of sustainable energy sources plays an important role in human life due to renewable and environmentally friendly. This problem can be resolved by using alternative fuels as renewable sources of energy that are more environmentally friendly, such as bioethanol. Empty fruit bunches (EFB) constitute a portion of the solid waste that cause problems in storage, transportation, and processing costs. This is because EFB is waste in a solid that is produced from a processing facility where the fruits of the oil palm tree are processed to extract palm oil in large quantities. The process of producing bioethanol by utilizing coconut fruit bunches that are devoid of their contents as a raw material involves two essential stages: hydrolysis and drying. Hydrolysis with an acid catalyst results in a lower yield, but the catalyst itself is inexpensive. Conversely, when using enzyme catalysts, hydrolysis produces a greater quantity of reducing sugars. Enzyme catalysts can be employed in the simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF) process using S. cerevisiae yeast, while chemical catalysts can be used in separate hydrolysis and fermentation (SHF) methods. The SSF method provides a comparatively elevated ethanol yield, demands less enzyme usage, has a shorter duration for ethanol production, and is environmentally friendlier when compared to the SHF procedure.

<p>Gelatin memiliki peranan yang sangat penting bagi industri. Pembuatan gelatin menggunakan kulit dan tulang babi atau sapi yang bisa menimbulkan masalah bagi umat islam, hindu, yahudi dan vegetarian. Upaya yang dapat dilakukan mengatasi hal tersebut yaitu dengan mencari bahan baku lain sebagai alternatif gelatin. Tujuan dari penelitian ini untuk mengetahui karakteristik fisik komposit biopolimer dan untuk mengetahui formula komposit biopolimer terbaik sebagai alternatif gelatin. Biopolimer yang digunakan adalah kappa karagenan, pati termodifikasi, CMC, dan isolat protein kedelai. Beberapa analisis yang dilakukan diantaranya pembentukan gel, efek pengental, pembentukan film, transparansi gel, sineresis, kelarutan dalam air dingin, dan kekutan gel. Uji statistik yang digunakan yaitu uji Dunnett dengan taraf signifikansi 5%. Hasil yang tidak berbeda nyata dengan gelatin akan dipilih sebagai komposit biopolimer terbaik. Komposit biopolimer terbaik terdiri dari kappa karagenan, pati termodifikasi, dan isolat protein kedelai. Berdasarkan uji kekuatan gel, formula komposit biopolimer yang tidak berbeda nyata dengan gelatin adalah K3I4C0, K3P3I1 dan K3P4I0.</p>

Developments in the business world are currently increasing rapidly, as seen from the many companies that have sprung up with various fields of development in the current business world.

NIB Registration Assistance Activities in One of the areas targeted by the MBKM KKNT in 2022 is Rontu Village with an entrepreneurial and creative economy scheme. From the results of surveys and field observations, partner problems were found, such as that many people in the Rontu Sub-District do not have a Business Identification Number (NIB), which is important for MSMEs because it can lead to big profits and can attract other consumers and also generate higher sales. In addition, the community considers business licensing which was previously considered insignificant because the management is troublesome and not easy, however, MSMEs need business licensing to encourage business development, protect business locations and business competitiveness which is getting tougher in the current era. Therefore the purpose of this research is to provide assistance and understanding of the registration of Business Identification Numbers (NIB) in order to improve the MSME economy in the Rontu sub-district.

Stunting is a national program that involves specific and sensitive interventions in it. Activities carried out by cadres are still limited to registering, weighing, measuring length/height, filling out KMS and distributing PMT. Infrastructure facilities at the Posyandu Kenanga are still very limited. The measurement of the body length of toddlers who cannot stand only uses a cloth meter. This will affect the measurement results in the process of monitoring the growth and development of children under five. The purpose of this service activity is to provide education about stunting to improve maternal health literacy and provision of posyandu infrastructure facilities in the form of nameplates and digital baby scales. As a result, from around 54 mothers of children under five who participated in posyandu activities, 24 of them were successfully assessed for pretest and posttest scores. There was an increase in the knowledge score from 73 to 79 with an average of 3,042 increasing to 3,291. The value of the Gain Score calculation shows that the average value of N Gain Score for the experimental class (lecture method) is 12.76% which is included in the ineffective category. The handover of nameplates and digital baby scales is expected to improve the function and role of the posyandu.
