Glycerin residue is waste oleochemical industry that still contain glycerin. To produce quality and maximum quantity of glycerin, then research the effect of pH acidification using phosphoric acid. Glycerin analysis includes the analysis of pH, Fatty Acid and Ester (FAE), and analysis of the levels of glycerin. The maximum yield obtained at pH acidification 2 is grading 91,60% glycerin and Fatty Acid and Ester (FAE) 3,63 meq/100 g. Glycerin obtained is used as a plasticizer in the manufacture of bioplastics. Manufacture of bioplastics using the method of pouring a solution with varying concentrations of starch banana weevil (5% w/v and 7% w/v), variations of the addition of glycerin (1 ml, 3 ml, 5 ml and 7 ml), and a variety of gelatinization temperature (60°C, 70°C, and 80°C). Analysis of bioplastics include FTIR testing, tensile strength that is supported by SEM analysis. The results obtained in the analysis of FTIR does not form a new cluster on bioplastics starch banana weevil, but only a shift in the recharge area only, it is due to the addition of O-H groups originating from water molecules that enter the polysaccharide through a mechanism gelatinitation that generates interaction hydrogen bonding strengthened. The maximum tensile strength of bioplastics produced at a concentration of starch 7% w/v, 1 ml glycerine and gelatinization temperature of 80°C is 3,430 MPa. While the tensile strength bioplastic decreased with increasing glycerin which can be shown from the results of SEM where there is a crack, indentations and lumps of starch insoluble.

The stream flow regime of four springs located in the Mantiqueira Mountain Range region (MG) was evaluated and correlated to the respective recharge area, relief characteristics, land cover and physical and hydrologic soil characteristics. The streamflow regime was characterized by monitoring of discharges, calculating the surface runoff and specific discharge and by modeling the discharge over the recession period using the Maillet method. As all recharge areas have similar relief the effect of it on the streamflow was not possible to identify. Analysis included determining the effect of drainage area size, soil characteristics and land cover on the indicators of the streamflow regime. Size of the recharge area had a positive influence on the indicators mean discharge and surface runoff volume and on the regulation of the streamflow regime (springs L4 and L1). The spring under the smallest area of influence provided the worst results for the above mentioned indicators (spring L3). The effect of forest cover (natural and planted), associated with soil characteristics, was evidenced by the indicators surface runoff (in depth) and specific yield, both independent of the recharge area size (springs L4 and L2). The interaction of area size, soil characteristics and forest cover (natural and planted) provided the best results for all indicators of streamflow regime in the springs studied in the Mantiqueira Mountain Range (spring L4).

Gunung Malabar merupakan gunung tertinggi pada gugus pegunungan yang mengitari Cekungan Bandung Purba. Kawasan ini tersusun oleh berbagai pegunungan kecil, yaitu Gunung Haruman, Gunung Puntang dan dataran tinggi Pangalengan. Vegetasi di kawasan Gunung Malabar masih cukup lebat dan kawasan ini juga sering mengalami hujan dengan intensitas yang tinggi. Kondisi tersebut menjadikan Gunung Malabar sebagai recharge area dan catchment area yang ideal dengan area cukup luas. Artikel ini mengulas hasil penelitian hidrologi menggunakan metode geofisika untuk mengkaji pengaruh kawasan Gunung Malabar terhadap sistem hidrologi Cekungan Bandung Purba. Metode yang digunakan pada penelitian ini adalah Resistivitas-DC dan Very Low Frequency. Selain itu, pengukuran sifat fisik dan kimia air juga dilakukan untuk mendapatkan nilai kualitas baku mutu air permukaan berdasarkan parameter TDS, pH, dan EC. Pengukuran Resistivitas-DC dilakukan di dua wilayah yaitu di Lereng Utara Gunung Malabar, diperoleh rentang nilai resistivitas air tanah sekitar (1.4-70)Ωm, sedangkan di lereng barat Gunung Malabar, diperoleh rentang nilai resistivitas air tanah sekitar (20-150)Ωm. Kombinasi metode Resistivitas-DC dengan VLF di lereng barat Gunung Malabar menunjukkan bahwa recharge area dari sistem hidrologi di Gunung Malabar terbentuk pada zona lapisan dangkal (sekitar 15 m) dan menengah (sampai dengan 40 m). Selain itu, studi ini juga menunjukkan kualitas air tanah di kawasan Gunung Malabar. Hasil yang diperoleh dari pengukuran sifat fisik dan kimia air yaitu diperoleh rentang untuk parameter TDS dengan nilai (20-70) ppm, pH dengan rentang 6.20-8.48, dan EC dalam rentang (43-130)KataKunci : Cekungan Bandung, Gunung Malabar, Resistivitas-DC, Very Low Frequency, sifat fisik dan kimia air.

The impact of land use change will lead to a reduction of the land that is supposed to be for the groundwater recharge area. The area which is previously as a protected area, becoming a cultivated area. Determination of groundwater recharge areas is needed to ensure the availability of groundwater in Purworejo regency. The objective of this study is at determining the suitability of land use for groundwater recharge areas. The method was developed by using spatial analysis tool based on rating and weighting value of some parameters, i.e. rock permeability, rainfall, land use, soil type, slope, and depth of groundwater depth. Results conduct that the groundwater recharge area covers around 42,192 ha. Most of the groundwater recharge areas are located in the protected area, but there are several occupied by cultivated areas.
