PEMANFAATAN CANGKANG KELAPA SAWIT DAN LIMBAH KELAPA SAWIT (SLUDGE) SEBAGAI BAHAN BAKU PEMBUATAN BIOBRIKET ARANG
ABSTRACT: Briquette is one
type of alternative fuel made from various kinds of biomass. Biomass used in
this study was the palm kernel shells and palm oil sludge. This research was
aimed to make biobriquette charcoal from palm kernel shells and palm oil waste
sludge as an alternative fuel and to test the quality of biobriquette charcoal.
Testing was performed under non factorial completely randomized design. The
parameters observed were calorific value, water content, density and ash
content. The results of this study indicated that the composition of
biobriquette charcoal affected the calorific value, water content, density and
ash content. The average of calorific value was 3714.16 cal/g, the average of
water content was 7.95 %, the average of density was 0.79 (g / cm3) the average
ash content was 19.84 (%).
