TREATMENT OF NATURAL RUBBER PROCESSING WASTEWATER USING MEMBRANE DISTILLATION

  • Technology Owner : UNIVERSITI MALAYSIA PAHANG (UMP)
  • Description : DIRECT CONTACT MEMBRANE DISTILLATION (DCMD) WAS INVESTIGATED AS POSSIBLE MEANS TO REDUCE THE CONTAMINANTS FROM RUBBER EFFLUENT IN MALAYSIA. THE RUBBER EFFLUENT SAMPLE WAS COLLECTED FROM AN ANAEROBIC TANK AND TESTED USING POLYVINYLIDENE FLUORIDE HOLLOW FIBER MEMBRANE AS THE SEPARATION MEDIA. THE MEMBRANE WAS FABRICATED USING DRY JETWET SPINNING SYSTEM AND CHARACTERIZED FOR SEVERAL ANALYSES. IN THIS WORK, THE WATER QUALITY OF THE PERMEATE SOLUTION WAS COMPARED WITH THE FINAL DISCHARGE POINT AT THE FACTORY BASED ON WATER QUALITY PARAMETERS SET BY THE DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL IN MALAYSIA. INTERESTINGLY, THE CLEAN WATER OBTAINED AFTER THE TREATMENT USING DCMD IS MUCH BETTER THAN THE WATER QUALITY COLLECTED AT THE FINAL DISCHARGE POINT. OUR SYSTEM RECORDED A MINIMUM OF 90% REDUCTIONS OF CHEMICAL OXYGEN DEMAND (COD), TOTAL SUSPENDED SOLID (TSS), TOTAL DISSOLVED SOLID (TDS), TURBIDITY, AMMONIA NITROGEN, NITRATE NITROGEN AND COLOR. ALTHOUGH THE SYSTEM ONLY REJECTS 71 % BIOLOGICAL OXYGEN DEMAND (BOD) CONTENT IN THE ANAEROBIC EFFLUENT, THE FINAL BOD CONCENTRATION IN THE PERMEATE TANK IS STILL LESS THAN THE FINAL DISCHARGE POINT WHICH SHOWS THAT THE WATER QUALITY OF THE TREATED RUBBER EFFLUENT IS RELIABLE AND CAN BE DISCHARGED TO WATER BODIES.

PRODUCTION OF RUBBER COMPOSITE FILLED WITH OIL PALM FIBRE

  • Technology Owner : UNIVERSITI MALAYSIA PAHANG (UMP)
  • Description : FILLERS ARE INCORPORATED INTO RUBBERS FOR A VARIETY OF REASONS, NOTABLY AMONG WHICH ARE TO CONTROL THE PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF THE RUBBER AND COST REDUCTION PURPOSES. THE REQUIRED PHYSICAL PROPERTIES DEPEND ON THE APPLICATION FOR WHICH THE RUBBER IS INTENDED. RUBBER MATERIALS ARE VERY LITTLE USE WITHOUT EXISTENCE OF FILLERS EITHER NON-REINFORCING OR REINFORCING. TRADITIONALLY, CARBON BLACK, SILICA, CLAY, BARIUM SULPHATE, ZINC OXIDE ARE VERY POPULAR FILLERS FOR RUBBER COMPOUNDING. RECENTLY, A FEW STUDIES DONE TO EXPLORE POSSIBILITY OF USING OIL PALM FIBRE [1-5], RICE HUSK [6], SISAL [7] AND COIR [8] AS FILLERS IN THE RUBBER COMPOUND. OIL PALM BIOMASS (E.G. EMPTY FRUIT BUNCH AND TRUNK) ARE READILY AVAILABLE IN LARGE QUANTITIES IN PALM OIL MILLS. IT WAS ESTIMATED THAT THE AMOUNT OF RFB AVAILABLE IN MALAYSIA IN A YEAR IS ABOUT 4.43 MILLION TONNES (DRY WEIGHT) [9]. AT PRESENT, 65% IS INCINERATED FOR BUNCH AS IT NOT ENVIRONMENTALLY ACCEPTABLE DUE TO THE EMISSION OF WHITE SMOKE WITH SOME FLY ASH [10] IS ABUNDANT IN MALAYSIA WHICH HAS A GREAT POTENTIAL FOR REINFORCING FIBRE IN RUBBER MATERIALS AS MALAYSIA IN THE TOP GROWER AND PRODUCER OF PALM OIL IN THE WORLD. AT PRESENT, THE TOTAL AREA UNDER OIL PALM CULTIVATION IS OVER 4.05 MILLION HECTARES, PRODUCING OVER 14.96 MILLION TONNES OF OIL ANNUALLY. HOWEVER, THE OIL CONSISTS OF ONLY ABOUT 10% OF THE TOTAL BIOMASS PRODUCED IN THE PLANTATION. THE REMAINDER CONSIST OF HUGE AMOUNT OF LIGNOCELLULOSES MATERIALS, IN THE FORM OF FRONDS, TRUNKS AND EMPTY FRUIT BUNCHES. THE PRODUCTION OF EMPTY FRUIT BUNCH IS ESTIMATE TO BE AROUND 2.8-3.0 MILLION TONNES PER YEAR [11]. HOWEVER, PREPARING FIBRE FROM EMPTY FRUIT BUNCH AND TRUNK BY REMOVING NONCELLULOSIC COMPOUNDS RETAINING FIBRE STRENGTH IS A MAJOR CHALLENGE. MAJOR PROBLEM OF INCORPORATING NATURAL FIBRE INTO RUBBER IS THEIR INHERENT POOR FIBRE-MATRIX ADHESION AND THEIR DEGRADABILITY UNDER ULTRAVIOLET (UV), ESPECIALLY WITH ELEVATED MOISTURE. INVESTIGATIONS WILL BE CARRIED OUT TO DEVELOP COUPLING SYSTEMS AND THEIR MECHANISM THAT OPTIMIZE INTERFACIAL BONDING BETWEEN THE FIBRE AND THE MATRIX AND THAT ENHANCE LONG-TERM DURABILITY. COMPOSITES REINFORCED WITH NATURAL FIBRES CONTAINING LARGE AMOUNTS OF LIGNIN [12]. REMOVING LIGNIN, HEMICELLULOSES AND WATER SOLUBLE COMPONENTS HAS THE POTENTIAL TO REDUCE UV DEGRADABILITY [12] AND HAS THE POTENTIAL TO INCREASE FIBRE-MATRIX ADHESION WITHIN A COMPOSITE DUE TO THE MORE OPEN OR ROUGHER FIBRE SURFACE, ALLOWING FOR INCREASED PHYSICAL BONDING WITH THE MATRIX [13-15]. TO IMPROVE LONG-TERM DURABILITY OF COMPOSITES, CHEMICAL TREATMENTS SUCH AS ALKALISATION, ACETYLATING, COUPLING AGENTS CAN BE USED [2, 4]. THE SHORT FIBRE REINFORCED RUBBER COMPOSITE ARE MORE ADVANTAGEOUS AS THEY ARE REGARDED AS ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY MATERIALS AND DERIVED FROM RENEWABLE SOURCES. SINCE, THERE IS A LITTLE WORK DONE ON THE USE OIL PALM FIBRE IN THE RUBBER IN BLACK-FILLED RUBBER COMPOUNDS.

INVESTIGATION ON CHARACTERISTIC OF RUBBER ELASTOMER TRIBO-MECHANICAL AFFECTED BY AGING PHENOMENON

  • Technology Owner : UNIVERSITI MALAYSIA PAHANG (UMP)
  • Description : TIRE WITH LOW MATERIAL QUALITY APPLICATION BY THE ROAD USERS CAN BE CONSIDERED AS ONE MAJOR PROBLEM IN CAUSING ROAD ACCIDENT. THIS CAN BE SUPPORTED FROM THE REPORT BY PLUS MALAYSIA LTD. ON THE LARGE NUMBER OF TIRE DEBRIS COUNT ON THE HIGHWAY. IT CAN BE EXPLAINED BY THE COMPRESSION AND EXPANSION PHENOMENON DURING CONTACT ACTION BETWEEN TIRE AND ROAD AFFECTED BY THE EFFECT OF AGING ONTO TIRE LIFE. THERE IS NO PRECISE INDICATOR THAT JUSTIFY THE EFFECT OF SHELF LIFE PLUS WITH THE DURATION OF TIRE APPLICATION ONCE BOUGHT BY THE USERS ONTO THE RUBBER MATERIAL STRENGTH. ONE OF CHARACTERISTIC NEEDS TO BE ANALYZED IS THE EFFECT OF AGING ONTO TIRE LIFE. TIRE LIFE CAN BE EXPLAINED AS THE DURATION OF A TIRE CAN BE UTILIZED IN TERMS OF TRACTION AND SAFETY PERFORMANCE. MOST STUDY FOCUSED ON TIRE APPLICATION DURATION AND METHODS ONCE BOUGHT BY THE USERS ONTO THE TIRE INTEGRITY, BUT NO STUDY HAD TO JUSTIFY THE EFFECT OF TOTAL LIFE DURATION SINCE MANUFACTURED. IF THE RELATIONSHIP OF TIRE AGE ONTO TRIBO-MECHANICAL CHARACTERISTIC CAN BE ASSESSED, IT CAN BE RELATED TO ITS LIFE PERFORMANCE. IN THE STUDY, THE EFFECT OF AGING ONTO RUBBER ELASTOMER MECHANICAL PROPERTIES WILL BE INVESTIGATED. ADDITIONALLY, TRIBO-MECHANICAL CHARACTERISTIC AFFECTED BY AGED RUBBER MATERIAL PROPERTIES WILL BE EVALUATED, WHILE ASSESSING THE EFFECT OF TIRE LIFE (RUBBER MATERIAL LIFE) WITH TRACTION PERFORMANCE TEST. AT THE END OF THE STUDY, THE RELATIONSHIP OF TIRE LIFE PERFORMANCE AND TIRE AGING CAN BE CLARIFIED, THUS SAFETY PERFORMANCE AND MATERIAL DEVELOPMENT CAN BE PROPOSED IN THE FUTURE. THIS STUDY IS NOT ONLY DEVELOPING AN INDICATOR FOR TIRE LIFE, BUT ALSO IN DEALING WITH RUBBER MATERIAL APPLICATION IN INDUSTRIES AS A VIBRATION DAMPER, CONTACTED SURFACES FOR ROBOTIC ARMS END-EFFECTOR, AND AUTOMATION STRUCTURES IN INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION 4.0.

BIOGASOLINE SYNTHESIS FROM RUBBER SEED OIL AND OTHER NON-EDIBLE VEGETABLE OILS THROUGH FLUID CATALYTIC CRACKING PROCESS

  • Technology Owner : UNIVERSITI MALAYSIA PAHANG (UMP)
  • Description : GASOLINE OR PETROL THAT WE ARE USING TODAY IS A COMPLEX MIXTURE OF HYDROCARBONS. MOST OF THESE ARE ALKANES WITH 7 TO 12 CARBON ATOMS PER MOLECULE. BIOGASOLINE IS DEFINED AS FUEL WHICH HAS THE SAME CHARACTERISTIC WITH THE GASOLINE BUT IS SYNTHESIZED FROM EITHER CRUDE OR USED VEGETABLE OILS. CURRENT RESEARCH DEVELOPED BY A RESEARCH TEAM OF THE DEPARTMENT OF CHEMICAL ENGINEERING IN UNIVERSITI TEKNOLOGI PETRONAS HAD SYNTHESIZED BIODIESEL FROM RUBBER SEEDS IN MALAYSIA.IT STATES THAT RUBBER SEED OIL (RSO) HAS HIGH CONTENT OF FREE FATTY ACIDS (FFAS). BESIDES, THERE WAS BETWEEN 30% AND 40% OF OIL IN RUBBER SEEDS AND 1 KG OF RUBBER SEEDS COULD PRODUCE BETWEEN 300 ML AND 400 ML OF BIODIESEL FUEL (AZIZAN,2007). MALAYSIA HAS AROUND 1.2-MILLION-HECTARE PLANTATION OF RUBBER TREES AND THE SEEDS FROM THOSE RUBBER TREES CAN BE FOUND EVERYWHERE IN RUBBER TREE PLANTATIONS. HOWEVER, THESE RUBBER SEEDS ARE NOT UTILIZED AS ITS LATEX, UNLESS THESE SEEDS WERE ONLY USED IN FOOD AND GAMES. RSO CONTAINS 17% - 20% SATURATED FATTY ACIDS (MAINLY PALMITIC AND STEARIC) AND 77% - 82% OF UNSATURATED FATTY ACIDS (MAINLY OLEIC, LINOLEIC AND LINOLENIC) (NJOKU,1996, HARDJOSUWITO & HOESNAN,1978).C COMPARED TO THE OTHER TYPES OF OILS, RSO IS THE CHEAPEST SINCE RUBBER SEEDS ARE NON-EDIBLE FEEDSTOCK UNLIKE THE OTHER TYPES OF OILS. SINCE THE SUCCESSFUL BIODIESEL PRODUCED IS LIMITED FOR DIESEL-USED VEHICLES ONLY, SO THE SAME APPROACH MUST BE DONE FOR GASOLINE-USED VEHICLES. THUS, BIOGASOLINE IS HOPEFULLY CAN BE A SOLUTION OF THIS PROBLEM. BIOGASOLINE SYNTHESIZED FROM VEGETABLE OILS (PALM OIL, SOYBEAN OIL, SUNFLOWER OIL, CORN OIL ETCETERA) IS BIODEGRADABLE AND NON-TOXIC SINCE FROM THE ENVIRONMENTAL POINT OF VIEW, FUEL FROM VEGETABLE SOURCES IS ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY. FROM THE TECHNICAL POINT OF VIEW, IT HAS ALREADY PREDICTED THAT BIOFUELS (BIODIESEL, BIOGASOLINE, BIOGAS ETC) ARE TECHNICALLY COMPATIBLE WITH THE CURRENT INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINES. BIOGASOLINE COULD BE AN ANSWER TO THE FUTURE AIR EMISSION CONTROL. PREVIOUS RESEARCHERS HAVE FOUND THAT BIOGASOLINE HAD ALREADY SYNTHESIZED BY VARIOUS VEGETABLE OILS. THE SAME RESEARCHERS HAVE PREDICTED THE SATISFACTION RESULTS OF THE BIOGASOLINE SYNTHESIZED THROUGH VEGETABLE OIL CONVERSIONS DURING PERFORMING EXPERIMENTS RUN BY THEM (DEMIRBAS,2009).THE CRACKING METHOD APPLIED FOR VEGETABLE OILS IS FLUID CATALYTIC CRACKING, WHICH CRACKS FLUID SUBSTANCES IN CLOSED VESSEL AT SUITABLE TEMPERATURES TO OBTAIN LIGHTER SUBSTANCES USING DIRECT HEATING, WITH PRESENCE OF CATALYST AND INERT GAS AS CARRIER FLUID (DEMIRBAS,2009).FLUID CATALYTIC CRACKING IS A WELL-ESTABLISHED REFINERY PROCESSES FOR PRODUCTION OF LIGHT HYDROCARBON COMPOUNDS FROM HEAVY HYDROCARBON FEEDSTOCK (BIELANSKY,2011) AND THIS TECHNOLOGY IS APPLIED WIDELY. THE VEGETABLE OIL AS FEEDSTOCK IS PUMPED INTO THE CATALYST-FILLED CRACKER AND SET UP OF ITS CRACKING CONDITIONS. WHEN THE FEEDSTOCK ENTERS THE CRACKER CHAMBER, IT CRACKS WITH ASSISTANCE OF CATALYST AND THEN VAPORIZES. THE VAPOUR IS THEN CONDENSED, WHICH FORMS ORGANIC LIQUID PRODUCT THAT CONSISTS MIXTURE OF VARIOUS SHORT-MOLECULAR HYDROCARBON COMPOUNDS. THE LIQUID PRODUCT IS CONTINUOUSLY DISTILLED REGARDING 3 RANGED CATEGORIES – BIOGASOLINE, BIOKEROSENE AND BIO-LUBRICANT OIL. TO INVESTIGATE AND DETERMINE ALL 3 CATEGORIZED DISTILLATES, THEY ARE FINALLY ANALYZED. SINCE 1989, THERE HAVE BEEN SEVERAL OTHER STUDIES ON THE PRODUCTION OF HYDROCARBONS FROM PALM OIL MAINLY BIO-GASOLINE (BHATIA,2003) WHICH HAVE BEEN CARRIED OUT USING CRACKING CATALYSTS IN A MICRO-REACTOR. ZEOLITES HAVE SHOWN EXCELLENT PERFORMANCE AS SOLID ACID CRACKING CATALYSTS DUE TO THEIR HIGHER SELECTIVITY (LENG,1999;&TWAIQ,2004), AND ZEOLITE ZSM-5 WAS SELECTED AS THE BEST CATALYST FOR FLUID CATALYTIC CRACKING OF LIQUID CRUDE ORGANIC COMPOUNDS BECAUSE THE PERFORMANCES OF ORIGINAL ZSM-5 IS BETTER THAN ORIGINAL MCM-41 (KIM & KIM,2010), ZSM-11 (XU,2010) & ORIGINAL USY (ADEWUYI,1997).THE ZSM-5’S SI/AL RATIO OF 50:1 UPGRADES ITS CATALYTIC REACTIVITY PERFORMANCE (WAN DAUD,2011).
