Introduction

Introduce myself and elaborate my achievements

- My name is Dinda Bazliah
- Working at Schoter
- Graduated from ITS majoring in Chemical Engineering with Specialization in Chemical
Engineering Reaction and awarded of three years full scholarship from Indonesia’s Ministry
of Education and Culture.

What is your qualification for this research:

- in my bachelor degree I learned about heterogeneous catalyst, organic and inorganic
materials, thus it will help to learn advance organic and inorganic materials in dongguk
university
- I plan to conduct research on nanocellulose in dongguk university. and I know how to
produce pulp because in my bachelor research my research was about pulp production which
is one of method to obtain nanocellulose

Kenapa milih integrated degree

- Indonesia has a promising future with solar fuel cell as a tropical country. However, the
nanomaterial research especially about solar fuel cell still need to improve, and I believe this
program will help me to enrich my knowledge on solar cell research and I will gain many
experience while pursuing my studies in Dongguk univ, thus I could help Indonesia research.
Beside that, I will have a vivid career as a researcher.

Kenapa kita harus milih kamu

- like to learn new things: I experienced many internships in various field such as electricity,
natural gas, and consulting engineering services. From my internships, I got knowledge about
how to operate hysys, auotcad, pipe line gas calculating, and learnd advance excel
formulation.
- problem solving: due to covid 19, I could not go to the lab thus I need to change my final
project topic from producing pulp with organosolv method to prediction of degradation carbo
and lignin decrease on oxygen delignification of pulp kraft. What I did to tackle the problems
were read many papers and discus with my senior and colleges regarding my topic. The result
was good I got A for my thesis.
- I attended

Kenapa dongguk university

- Because dongguk’s research focuses in developing energy sources for power supplies and
discovers methods for obtaining materials in daily lives.
- Dongguk has courses such as advanced organic synthesis, advanced inorganic materials,
polymer polymerization, and nanomaterial engineering which I believe will become great
help on conducting my research
- lab facilities especially in chemical engineering department is equipped. one of lecturer in
department chemical engineering which is professor jeong in han, who has publication and
research interest on solar cell.
My previous education was Chemical Engineering focused on Prediction of Carbohydrate
Degradation and Lignin Decrease in Oxygen Delignification of Pulp. The prediction was
conducted to minimize carbohydrate degradation and also maintain the lignin reduction
process by variation the condition operating and determining the kinetic value using kinetic
models. The finding leads to reduce the usage of chlorine in the bleaching method that has a
good impact on the environment with additional method of oxygen delignification.

After study
- I would like to study and prepare myself for civil servants test
- After got accepted, I will choose the department that I desire to work in which is agency for
assasment and application of technology (BPPT)
- I would like to lead a big project research about nanotechnology for green energy based on
carbon and cellulose nanomaterials. Because indonesia government has a plan to reduce the
use of fossil-based energy, therefore the research on renewable energy needs to be improved.

What is your research

- My research will be about nanotechnology composite using carbon, cellulose, and metal
oxide as the materials.The the objectives are to assembly nanomaterials of CNC/RGO/MnO
as a composite material, to investigate the photocatalytic activity in the composite material,
and to characterize the new composite nanomaterial.
-Because photocatalytic research is quite demanding especially for the hydrogen fuel cells on 
water splitting. The main obstacles of photocatalyst technology are its development. To get th
e ideal photocatalyst that has high photocatalytic efficiency, large surface
area, full utilization of sunlight, and recyclability, the research on photocatalytic activity still 
needs to be improved.

Your knowledge regarding nanomaterial development in Korea

-

How you will adapt in Korea, as you know you will be a minority in korea
- I know it will be challenging, however, in Indonesia there are various cultures. And I just
need to adapt in Korean culture. I know it will be challenging but at the same time this will be
a good opportunity for me to acknowledge and learn korean culture.

Do you have any question?

- in dongguk university especially in chemical engineering department, is there any program
of joining research with others institutions?
- what kind of experience that i will get if I join dongguk university?
