Lomba Gagasan & Rancangan Kreatif (LOGRAK) – National Competition 2025

Finalist in the Lomba Gagasan & Rancangan Kreatif (LOGRAK) National Competition 2025, developing a biodigester prototype through interdisciplinary collaboration with Chemical and Electrical Engineering students.

Participated in the LOGRAK POLINEMA – Creative Ideas & Design Competition, a national-level competition focused on creative ideas, innovation, and design. As part of the competition, I developed a biodigester concept and prototype designed to support the utilization of biodegradable waste as an alternative energy resource.

The project was developed collaboratively with students from Chemical Engineering and Electrical Engineering, combining knowledge from both disciplines to develop a practical and functional solution. My contribution focused on the chemical engineering aspects of the biodigester, including understanding the waste-to-energy process and supporting the development of the system concept.

The project successfully advanced to the Finalist – Exhibition & Presentation stage. During the exhibition, I presented the biodigester prototype and explained its concept, working principle, and potential application to visitors and evaluators. This experience required me to communicate a technical concept in a clear and accessible manner while responding to questions and feedback during the exhibition.

Beyond the technical and presentation aspects, the competition provided an opportunity to collaborate with students from different academic backgrounds and connect with participants from other universities, including Universitas Diponegoro (UNDIP) and Universitas Gadjah Mada (UGM). These interactions broadened my perspective on different approaches to innovation and encouraged me to learn from ideas developed by other students.

Through this experience, I strengthened my competencies in creative problem-solving, interdisciplinary collaboration, prototype development, technical communication, presentation, and innovation. Reaching the finalist stage also gave me valuable experience in presenting an engineering-based idea in a competitive national-level environment.
