An ability of fresh banana peel without surface modification was evaluated for the removal of lead ions from aqueous solution. Batch adsorption was performed at room temperature. The experimental conditions including dosage contact time initial concentration of lead( II) ion were studied. The characterization of fresh banana peel was carried out by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence ( ED-XRF) . The isotherm models of Langmuir and Freundlich were used to describe the adsorption mechanism involving the relationship between adsorbent surface capacity and adsorbed degree of lead(II)ion in the equilibrium conditions. The experimental data fitted well to the Langmuir isotherm with a correlation coefficient of r2 greater than 0.86. The Maximum adsorption capacity (qm) was found to be 0.9151 mg/g. The results of ED-XRF of fresh banana peels before and after treatment with lead( II) ion confirmed that lead( II) ion was occupied onto the surface of fresh banana peel. Moreover the inside of fresh banana peels was found the lead(II)ion larger than the outside peels. It was concluded that waste of banana could be used as a low-cost adsorbent for removal of lead(II)ion from aqueous solution based on a simple adsorption method.

This research is a study of the optimum heat temperature for baking sintered castings for burnout removal of EC 500 type ash wax from cast mortar. Improving jewelry casting process to reduce waste from silver jewelry production process. By studying the temperature of the mortar. To burn remove wax from the mortar and clean the gaps. Then try to bring silver water instead of metal casting. The results of a baked casing study using the EC500 housing prototype from the study showed that the EC500 wax material is melted from all solids to ash wax by heating at 850 ° C to burn. Remove ash wax which makes the cavity clean. When the casting was casted with 925 sterling silver the most complete workpiece after the improvement of the waste jewelry casting process was found to be 1 piece 1 percent 99 pieces or 99 percent.

After a propeller shaft was damaged from chloride in sea water it has been fixed by MAG welding process with flux cored wire. Its service life after welded depends on the corrosion resistance of the weld metal. This research aimed to compare the corrosion resistance of two different weld metals between X111-T5-K4 and E71T-1CH8/T/9M-D flux core wire. The test specimens were prepared according to the ASTM G1-103 standard and tested by salt spray test conforming to the ASTM B 117 standard. The result of the test showed that the corrosion rate of the weld metal using X111-T5-K4 flux cored wire is lower than the weld metal of E71T-1CH8/T/9M-D flux cored wire which was 0.21 and 0.32 mm2/hr. respectively. The mass loss at 24 hours of E71T-1CH8/T/9M-D X111-T5-K4 flux core wire were 0.32 and 0.48 grams respectively. Therefore enhancing the service life of propeller shaft from chloride corrosion should use X111-T5-K4 flux core as weld metal

A Study direction milling affecting surface roughness by the Taguchi method with a 10 mm. bite milling cutter the direction of milling is clockwise G41 and counter clockwise milling. G42 is intended to measure the milling direction of the workpiece by testing with brass and aluminum materials. By measuring the milling direction the feed rate is 100 mm / min the speed is 1500 rpm and the depth of milling is 3 mm. The clockwise and counterclockwise hands provide better surface roughness and from the test the factors that affect the roughness of the surface are brass and aluminum. The coefficient of variation in surface roughness of the test specimens was 4 factors namely feed rate of 80 100 and 120 mm/min speed of 1200 1500 and 1800 rpm. The 3 4 and 5 mm workpieces are machined and the milling direction is divided into two parts: G41 clockwise bite counterclockwise G42 brass and brass material testing. It is found that the correct direction for brass milling is the direction of machining G41 with a cutting speed of 1200 rpm. The feed rate is 120 mm/min. And the depth of bite is 4 mm. The surface roughness of the workpiece is minimal. The surface roughness is 0.84 ?m. The optimum direction for aluminum milling is G42 cutting direction. The cutting speed is 1200 m/min. The feed rate is 120 mm/min. And the depth of biting is 5 mm. The surface roughness of the workpiece is minimal. The surface roughness was 0.75 ?m.

This study aims to development of production process of hard metal by tungsten carbide powder with the particle sized of 0.1 - 0.35 µm. This carbide powder were made of recycling cemented carbide tool scraps so it is mixed with Ta = 2.82 % Mo = 0.45 % Nb = 1.22 % Ti = 4.56 % Zr = 0.37 % The shape of the carbide powder are roughly round due to ball milling for 300 hours. It was mixing cobalt 10 % and Paraffin wax 2 % which is found the work piece that running through the process of sintering with a temperature of 1400 °c and 1430 °c have the hardness of 1368.5 and 1346.3 HV respectively. In one hour of holding time process the work piece with 1430 °c of the sintering causes less wear. After the test of turning operation it can be concluded that the tungsten carbide cutting tool provides the equivalent quality as a standard cutting tool.
