    Polyol is a chemical compound that contains many hydroxyl groups. Polyol can be made from petroleum, nevertheless petroleum's price is increasingly high and petroleum itself is a non renewable resource,so it may be gone someday.Alternatively, synthesis of polyol can use other material that is renewable, in case it can use waste from edible oil. In experiment, polyol is made from edible oil waste(used palm cooking oil) through ozonolysis reaction. Beside ozone,as reactant are also used a mixture of methanol isopropanoal and water in certain ratio and sulphuric acid as catalyst.Mechanism of reaction will start at ozone attack and break the double bonds( C=C) of unsaturated fatty acid in the waste,and then hydroxyl groups of alcohol can made contact to produce polyol. The main purpose of experiment is to determine the optimum condition for making polyol with ozonolysis technology.The experiment will be carried out by vary temperature of ozonolysis reaction, mol ratio of oil-alcohol,reaction time and ozone concentration. The result of experiment show that hydroxyl number values of polyol vary from 92.75 to 265.62 and viscosity values vary from 9.228 to 20.403 cp. The optimum condition determined by response optimization program,and from experiment show that converting edible oil waste to polyol will be efficient with temperature 25'C, 3 hours reaction time, l:7 for oil and alcohol mol ratio and ozone concentration 6.3

    Mikroreaktor merupakan reaktor yang berbentuk canal dengan dimensi <=1mm. Microcanal ini memberikan keuntungan dalam proses dengan meningkatkan laju perpindahan massa dan panas, sehingga reaktor jenis ini cocok digunakan untuk reaksi-reaksi yang sangat eksothermis/endothermis dan atau dibatasi oleh perpindahan masa. Hasil yang didapatkan dengan menggunakan mikroreaktor ini adalah tercapainya selektivitas yang tinggi pada konversi reaksi yang tinggi, serta keamanan dalam proses. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mempelajari parameter-parameter hidrodinamika yang terdiri dari panjang slug dan bubble dari aliran gas-liquid yang berkelakuan sebagai aliran Taylor pada 2 kondisi operasi yaitu debit udara konstan 0,75 ml/min dan debit ethanol bervariasi pada range 0,2 ml/min serta debit ethanol konstan 0,3ml/min dan debit udara bervariasi antara 0,3 ml/min - 1 ml-min. Dua jenis konfigurasimicrocanal digunakan dalam penelitian ini yaitu canal berbentuk "T" dan canal konfigurasiserpent (berkelak-kelok menyerupai ular) Hasil percobaan menunjukan bahwa panjang bubble yang terbentuk dalam canal dipengaruhi oleh debit phase kontinu & debit phase diskontinu serta dimensi panjang canal. Metode Garstecky dapat digunakan untuk memprediksi panjang bubble pada konfigurasi canal yang berkelak-kelok

    The current work aims to develop synthesis biodiesel through simultaneous transesterification and ozonation reactions in a microtube reactor of 1 mm diameter, which has low energy consumption, provides process safety, as well as enables high reaction yield and conversion.The synthesis were carried out by contacting two immiscible liquids oil-methanol and ozone gas in a microtube of 5 m long at 30 °C, 1 atm pressure, the oil-methanol molar ratio 1:3, 1:5, with 1 wt% catalyst NaOH. For the purposes of comparison and assessment the influence of ozone gas, biodiesel was also synthesized by performing the reactions in series, i.e., transesterification then ozonation, and vice versa, by utilizing the same experimental conditions. After a preliminary study on gas-liquid-liquid flows, the result shows that the microtube reactor used is capable of producing a high yield and conversion through the simultaneous processes in a much shorter reaction time around 15 minutes by applying the lower ozone flow rates and the smaller methanol-oil molar ratio 1:3 than the previous works in stirred tank reactors. Ozone in this synthesis has broken the double bounds carbon chains of methyl oleate, methyl linoleate, and methyl linolenate and converting them to the saturated methyl esters, therefore, the biodiesel product has a better stability

    Miniaturization performs better than conventional equipment since it can generate a high specific surface (A/V) for mass and heat transfer between phases. The current studies aimed at characterizing the two-phase flow pattern (air-methanol) with a circular cross-sectional area of silicone, determining bubble length in the inlet and outlet section by using the three configurations of microchannel; finding the effect of gas and liquid velocity as well as the pressure drop throughout the channel to the bubble dimensions formed. The experiments were conducted by visualizing a gas-liquid flow pattern (Taylor) and measuring the bubble length within a channel of 1 mm ID. As a flow pattern target in this work, Taylor has a uniform shape, dimension, and constant velocity during observations. An increase in the ratio of linear velocity (UG/UL) brings on an increase in bubble length throughout the channel from the inlet to the outlet section. The bubble length outlet is longer than the inlet section due to the effect of increasing pressure drop (ΔP) and is sometimes caused by the bubble coalescence phenomena. The wettability on the inner wall of the microchannel strongly determined the flow pattern type and the length of bubbles
