REKAYASA DAN UJI KINERJA PROTOTIPE DESTILATOR SKALA LABORATORIUM
Abstract: Laboratory equipment
is quite expensive so amount of the equipment in the laboratory is very
limited, considering the procurement of laboratory equipment is not always
needs budgete annually by the college. It takes creativity laboratory manager
to improve the performance of laboratory equipment so that the equipment can
support educational activities. This research used two steps were: (1) design
of destilator prototipe, include: functional and structural design, (2)
performance test include: functional test, test alcohol produce, the rate of
destilation, dan Efficiency of distillation. Desain and performance test was
processed in agricultural engineering laboratory, agricultural technology
faculty of Jember Univiersity. The result showed that as a functional and
structural design it was can operate with dimensions were, bolier capacity 1
liter, height of destiltor prototype 52cm. At the performance test of alcohol
produced showed that the higher of alcohol produced without the perforated
plate disc on factionating column was 82.5%. The higher of distilation rate
with three the perforated plate discs was 5,75 ml/minute. The higher of distillation
efficiency with three the perforated plate discs was 97.41%.
