Over 200 days of continuous testing have been completed on an integrated waste management-water recovery system developed by General Electric under a jointly funded AEC/NASA/AF Contract. The 4 man system provides urine, feces, and trash collection; water reclamation; storage, heating and dispensing of the water; storage and disposal of the feces and urine residue and all of other nonmetallic waste material by incineration. The heat required for the 1200 deg F purification processes is provided by a single 420-w radioisotope heater. A second 836-w radioisotope heater supplemented by 720 w of electrical heat provides for distillation and water heating. Significant test results are no pre-or-post treatment, greater than 98 percent potable water recovery, approximately 95 percent reduction in solids weight and volume, all outflows are sterile with the water having no bacteria or virus, and the radioisotope capsule radiation level is only 7.9 mrem/hr unshielded at 1 m (neutrons and gamma).

Operational flexibility, such as faster start-up time or faster load change rate, and higher thermal efficiency, have become more and more important for recent thermal power systems. The advanced humid air turbine (AHAT) system has been studied to improve operational flexibility and thermal efficiency of gas turbine power generation systems. A 40MW-class AHAT test facility was built and the rated output was achieved. Through operations at the facility, it has been verified for the first time that the key components of the medium-class gas turbines, such as an axial compressor and multi-can combustor, can be applied to the AHAT system. The cold start-up time from ignition to rated power was about 60 min, which is approximately one-third that of a conventional gas turbine combined cycle (GTCC) plant. NOx emissions were 24ppm (at 16% O2) when the humidity of combustion air was approximately a half that of present commercial AHAT plants, and NOx emissions in a future commercial AHAT system were thought to be less than 10ppm. A water recovery system which recovers water from a part of the exhaust gas of the 40MW-class test facility was built and test operations were made from June 2013. In this paper, water recovery test results as well as the 40MW-class gas turbine test results are shown.

The limitations of waste management in the Cipayung Landfill (TPA) causing a buildup of garbage up to more than 30 meters. This condition has a health impact on people in Cipayung Village. This study aims to analyze the impact of waste management at Cipayung Landfill on public health in Cipayung Village, Depok City. The research is descriptive qualitative. Data obtained by purposive sampling. Data was collected by interviews, observation and documentation. Based on interviews with 30 respondents, it was found that the most common diseases were diarrhea, then other types of stomach ailments, subsequent itching on the skin and coughing. This is presumably because the environmental conditions in the form of unhealthy air and water and clean and healthy living behaviors (PHBS) have not become the habit of the people. The results indicated that there were no respondents who had implemented all of these criteria. In general respondents have implemented  3 criteria, namely maintaining hair hygiene, maintaining skin cleanliness, and maintaining hand hygiene. While maintaining clean water storage is the most often overlooked behavior. To minimize this health impact, improvements in waste management in Cipayung landfill are needed along with continuous socialization and education to develop PHBS habits and the importance of maintaining a clean environment.

Most of the people at Ciaruteun Ilir Village, Cibungbulang Subdistrict, Bogor District are trashing the river. Population growth and consumption pattern change causes the volume, type, and characteristics of existing waste is increasing, especially household waste. Beside from households, there are also a lot of garbage has coming from the agricultural sectors. The main factors causing the community dispose garbage into the river is the unavailability of landfills, awareness and knowledge of the community related to waste management and utilization is still quite low. Seeing these conditions, the team through the Student Creativity Program for Community Service educate how about the management and utilization of waste named enviro school. Enviro school aims to shape the caring behavior of environmental community through environmental education start from an early age, grouping garbage independently, forming the institution of trash bank, and creating creative products from waste through the creation of vermicompost institutions and handicrafts with functional and economic value with target adult people on Ciaruteun Ilir Village RT 05/03. Enviro school has methods through 7 classes, it is pre class, first class, class, green class, brown class, white class, and enviroducation fair. Based on pre test results conducted at the beginning of the program, only 30.90% of people understand the concept of waste management and utulization, then an increase after four months running through the post test of 92.69%. Successfully this program visible from the increased awareness and knowledge about management and utulization of waste, the establishment of enviro trash bank as a structural institution for waste management, increased youth skills in the utilization of organic waste become vermicompost, and increasing skills of mothers in the utilization of anorganic waste.

ABSTRAKSampah adalah material sisa, yang diproduksi ke alam baik dalam bentuk padatan, cair, ataupun gas. Permasalahan sampah merupakan masalah yang besar di Desa Pemurus RT 001B dikarenakan cara pengelolaan sampah rumah tangga hanya dibuang ke sungai. Oleh karena itu diperlukan edukasi mengenai pengelolaan sampah. Pengelolaan sampah merupakan kegiatan yang sistematis, menyeluruh, dan berkesinambungan yang meliputi pengurangan dan penanganan sampah. Namun, karena Pandemi Covid-19 intervensi Pengalaman Belajar Lapangan (PBL) I dimodifikasi menjadi penyuluhan dengan menggunakan media poster, leaflet, booklet dan juga video edukasi mengenai upaya pengelolaan sampah yang dikirimkan langsung ke masyarakat. Kegiatan PBL II yang dilakukan secara daring menggunakan media aplikasi grup WhatsApp. Berdasarkan hasil pre-post test yang dilakukan dengan 14 peserta diketahui bahwa terdapat peningkatan dari hasil pre-test dengan hasil post-test. Berdasarkan pengetahuan masyarakat tentang pengolahan sampah terjadi peningkatan dengan nilai Sig (0,004)>0,05. Berdasarkan sikap masyarakat mengenai pengolahan sampah terjadi peningkatan dengan nilai Sig (0,031)>0,05. Diharapkan kepada masyarakat agar ikut berperan aktif untuk meningkatkan pengetahuan dan sikap mengenai pengelolaan sampah khususnya yang ada di Desa Pemurus RT 001B melalui penyuluhan sehingga nantinya dapat menciptakan derajat kesehatan yang lebih baik. Kata kunci: pengelolaan sampah; desa pemurus rt 001b; penyuluhan. ABSTRACTWaste is waste material, which is produced in nature in the form of solid, liquid, or gas. The waste problem is a big problem in Pemurus Village RT 001B because the way of managing household waste is only thrown into the river. Therefore, education about waste management is needed. Waste management is a systematic, comprehensive, and sustainable activity that includes waste reduction and handling. Due to the Covid-19, PBL I intervention was modified into outreach using posters, leaflets, booklets and educational videos about waste management efforts that were sent directly to the community. PBL II activities carried out online using WhatsApp group. Based on the results of the pre-post test conducted with 14 participants, it was found that there was an increase from the pre-test results to the post-test results. Based on public knowledge about waste processing, there was an increase with the Sig value (0.004)>0.05. Based on people's attitudes regarding waste management, there was an increase with the value of Sig (0.031)>0.05. It is hoped that the community will take an active role in increasing knowledge and attitudes regarding waste management, especially in Pemurus Village RT 001B through counseling so that later it can create better health degrees. Keywords: waste management; pemurus village RT 001b; counseling.
