Abstract

The high lignin content in a waste of oil palm empty fruit bunch (OPEFB) can be utilized as an active compound in the preparation of natural pesticides. Lignin from OPEFB can be degraded into phenolic derivatives. The degradation of lignin was carried out by photooxidation using TiO2, which was synthesized directly from the ilmenite minerals. The success of TiO2-ilmenite synthesis was evidenced by the appearance of specific diffractogram peaks at 2θ = 25.5° for anatase TiO2 and 27.65° for TiO2 rutile. The ability of TiO2-ilmenite in lignin degradation was analyzed using UV-visible spectroscopy. Based on the analysis, it was known that the use of TiO2-ilmenite 0.3 g with radiation time of 20 to 30 min showed the highest degradation of 16.40-23.42 %. The degradation results were used to determine the antifungal activity of lignin from OPEFB. The results indicated that the high activity of lignin from OPEFB in inhibiting the growth of Fusarium oxysporum Schlecht with the highest clear zone diameter was 2.59 cm.
