Abstract

Perkembangan sektor industri, khususnya industri tekstil, menyebabkan peningkatan pencemaran lingkungan perairan. Salah satu komponen utama dalam industri tekstil adalah zat warna seperti Methylene blue, yang merupakan pewarna organik berbahaya dan dapat mencemari lingkungan. Degradasi Methylene blue dapat dilakukan melalui proses fotokatalisis menggunakan semikonduktor berbasis oksida logam. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui karakterisasi hasil sintesis komposit Cu-TiO2/ZnO, menganalisis pengaruh perbedaan massa Cu pada komposit, dan mengkaji pengaruh variasi suhu kalsinasi pada pembuatan material fotokatalis. Dalam penelitian ini, sintesis nanokomposit Cu-TiO2/ZnO dilakukan dengan variasi massa Cu 2%, 5%, dan 8%, serta variasi suhu kalsinasi 175oC, 200oC, dan 225oC, melalui metode sol-gel. Karakterisasi material dilakukan dengan Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), UV-Vis spectrophotometer dan Ultraviolet–Visible Diffuse Reflectance Spectroscopy (UV-Vis DRS). Hasil karakterisasi SEM menunjukkan bahwa morfologi sampel adalah berbentuk bulat (sphere)  dengan ukuran yang bervariasi dan tidak beraturan. Sementara itu, hasil karakterisasi menggunakan UV-Vis DRS mengindikasikan bahwa Cu-TiO2/ZnO memberikan respon yang baik terhadap sinar tampak (λ>400 nm). Aktivasi fotokatalitik Cu-TiO2/ZnO diuji dalam degradasi Methylene blue selama 2 jam dibawah sinar UV, dengan hasil menunjukkan tingkat degradasi sebesar 83,575%. Selain itu, pengujian fuel cell menunjukkan bahwa tegangan yang dihasilkan oleh Cu(2%)-TiO2/ZnO, Cu(5%)-TiO2/ZnO, dan Cu(8%)-TiO2/ZnO masing-masing sebesar 0,514V, 0,896V, dan 0,922V.
