A critical analysis of technological interventions towards the national action plan for marine litter management 2018-2025: recommendations for addressing marine plastic litter in the ‘new balis’ of Indonesia sustainably

This dissertation aims to provide recommendations for addressing marine plastic litter in the ‘New Balis’ of Indonesia sustainably through technological interventions in the framework of the National Action Plan for Marine Litter Management 2018-2025. ‘New Balis’ are the 10 prioritized tourism destinations in Indonesia to be developed and promoted. The ‘New Balis’ development is a national strategic project to boost national income from tourism sector which have been directed by Indonesian President since 2015. This is because tourism is a rapidly growing economic sector in Indonesia. However, ‘New Balis’ are also facing a global challenge called marine plastic litter. Marine plastic litter is a threat to ‘New Balis’ due to has potential impacts on the reduction of marine environment sustainability, health of tourists and local communities as well as tourism business income. Since 2018, Indonesian government has established and promulgated the National Plan of Action on Marine Litter Management 2018-2025. This national plan consists of three important key aspects of interventions (i.e. societal effort, technological application and institutional coordination) and five strategies for addressing marine litter in Indonesia, in particular to manage 70% of marine plastic litter by 2025. The strategies include 1) National movement for raising awareness of stakeholders, 2) Land-based litter management, 3) Litter management at sea and coasts, 4) Funding mechanism, institutional strengthening, monitoring and law enforcement, and 5) Research and development. In this dissertation research, technological interventions around the world and in Indonesia are reviewed and analyzed on their relevance to the national action plan as well as the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats (SWOT) of potential impacts after intervening the technologies in the ‘New Balis’. In order to ensure technological interventions will be sustainable for addressing marine plastic litter in the ‘New Balis’, the aspects of sustainable tourism and international partnerships are also recommended to be considered by Indonesian government and related stakeholders

Hydrolysis of Sago Starch by Aspergillus Awamori for the Production of a Generic Fermentation Medium

The efficiency of several amylolytic-enzyme-producing fungi such as Aspergillus niger, Aspergillus awamori and Aspergillus flavus to hydrolyse cooked sago starch has been carried out in shake flask cultures. Subsequently, the performance of microbial hydrolysis of sago starch by A. awamori, which was an industrial strain used for glucoamylase production, into fermentable sugar was studied in shake flask culture and 2 L stirred tank fermenter. The influence of medium composition (different types and concentrations of starch and nitrogen sources) on the rate of hydrolysis and fermentable sugar production was first carried out using shake flask cultures. The performance of microbial hydrolysis was also carried out in different modes of bioreactor operation (batch, repeated batch and continuous operation) using freely suspended cell system. Beside rate and degree of starch conversion, the enzymes produced during growth were also determined. For comparison, two-steps enzymatic hydrolysis which involve liquefaction and saccharification steps, was also carried out in batch and continuous processes. The microbial hydrolysis of gelatinised sago starch to fermentable sugar by three strains of amylolytic-enzyme-producing fungus (A. awamori, A. flavus and A. niger) was successfully carried out at low temperature (30oC) in a single step process. However, the performance of the hydrolysis by A. awamori, in term of yield (0.59 g glucose/g starch) and overall productivity (0.42 g glucose/L.h), was higher than other strain. In addition, the yield of microbial hydrolysis of the different starches (sago, potato, corn and tapioca starch) by A. awamori was more or less the same, ranged from 0.56 to 0.59 g glucose/g starch. From this study it was also found that the individual concentration of nitrogen and starch influenced glucoamylase production, and thus the efficiency of starch hydrolysis to fermentable sugar, to a greater extent than the carbon to nitrogen (C/N) ratio. The optimized medium formulation for high performance of starch hydrolysis was by using sago starch ranged from 50 to 100 g/L, yeast extract as the sole nitrogen source and C/N ratio of 17.13. The yield of glucose produced based on starch used in continuous microbial hydrolysis using 2 L stirred tank fermenter was lower than that obtained in batch hydrolysis (0.58 and 0.92 g/g, respectively) but the overall productivity was higher than that obtained in batch hydrolysis (1.44 and 0.58 g/L.h, respectively). The yield and overall productivity for microbial hydrolysis were lower than for enzymatic hydrolysis (0.75 g/g and 4.4 g/L.h, respectively). However, substantially high amount of biomass was also produced during microbial hydrolysis which can be used as nitrogen sources for media formulation. The optimum dilution rate and starch concentration for enzymatic hydrolysis using stirred tank was obtained at 0.125 h-1 and 300 g/L, respectively. On the other hand, the optimum dilution rate and starch concentration for microbial hydrolysis was obtained at 0.022 h-1 and 30 g/L, respectively. In addition, microbial hydrolysis was carried out at lower temperature (30oC) than that required in enzymatic hydrolysis (60-95oC). Thus, large reduction of operating cost is possible. Once, sterilised the glucose produced in outflow of the continuous microbial hydrolysis can be used as a generic medium for various fermentation processes
