The increasing demand for renewable energy and environmental pollution from poorly managed waste have become significant issues that remain unresolved. Hospitals, in particular, have become major contributors to wastewater. In developing countries, hospitals can produce 200-400L/capita/day of wastewater containing toxic, non-biodegradable, and infectious pollutants. Retno Pratiwi, a doctoral student in Chemical Engineering at FTUI, sought...
The oil and gas industry in Indonesia faces significant challenges in maintaining the safety and efficiency of its pipeline systems. To address these issues, Taufik Aditiyawarman, a Doctoral student in Metallurgical & Material Engineering at FTUI, has completed a dissertation discussing the use of risk-based inspection methods supported by machine learning and deep learning technologies....
Dr. Ernia Susana, a doctoral student in Electrical Engineering at the Faculty of Engineering (FT), Universitas Indonesia (UI), has developed a new method for monitoring blood glucose levels without using needles. This method utilizes light technology known as Photoplethysmography (PPG) signals and artificial intelligence (AI), aiming to make it easier, more comfortable, and affordable for...
Bone implants are generally divided into permanent and temporary implants. With advancements in biomaterial science reaching the third generation, the use of inert temporary implant materials is shifting towards absorbable metal materials. Among absorbable metals, magnesium has great potential to be developed as an implant, as it can eliminate the need for implant removal surgery...
On Friday (28/6), the Faculty of Engineering at Universitas Indonesia (FTUI), through the Entrepreneurship and Innovation Unit, continued its entrepreneurship program with the On-Boarding Technopreneurship Camp event. This activity marks the beginning of a series of entrepreneurship training activities for its participants. The event was held in the Smart Meeting Room at the FTUI Dean’s...
The advancements in science and technology over the past two decades have stimulated the creation of cutting-edge products with micrometre-sized features. Products such as microchannels, microreactors, micromechanical tools, micro moulds, and micro nozzles have physical features in micro sizes, and all are needed in biomedical fields, surgical instruments, and microelectromechanical systems. Micro-milling is one of...
To expand its network of international partnerships, the Faculty of Engineering at Universitas Indonesia (FTUI) held a meeting with delegates from the University of Exeter on Thursday (27/06). The meeting took place at the FTUI Dean’s Building and was led by the Head of the FTUI International Office, Fadhilah Muslim, S.T., M.Sc., Ph.D., DIC. The...
Thermal cameras have long been recognized for their advantages over visible-light cameras, particularly in low-light conditions such as at night. However, the biggest challenge in their use is occlusion (when objects are covered) and thermal crossover (when objects have similar thermal appearances). Therefore, Dr. Nur Ibrahim, a Doctor from the Faculty of Engineering (FT) at...
Hasbi Priadi, a participant in the Doctoral Program of the Chemical Engineering Department, Faculty of Engineering (FT), University of Indonesia (UI), successfully defended his dissertation on the experimentation and modelling of hydrothermal fractionation using palm oil by-products for bioethanol production, in an open doctoral promotion session at FTUI (June 26). Hasbi graduated with a GPA...
Four students from Universitas Indonesia (UI): Safry Sitorus from the Faculty of Engineering (FT), Adnan Hasyim Wibowo from the Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences (FMIPA), Wildan Bagus Maulana and Farrel Mukti Attallah from the Faculty of Economics and Business (FEB), and Rafi Aurelian from the Faculty of Social and Political Sciences (FISIP), have successfully...
