STUDI PENGENDALIAN PEMANAS PADA REAKTOR HIDROGENASI MINYAK NABATI MENJADI GREENDIESEL DENGAN JAKET PEMANAS
Abstract: Greendiesel is the
second generation of the biodiesel fuel. The advantages of greendiesel
compare with first generation of
biodiesel are higher cetane number, no waste on the production and low CO2
emission. Greendiesel was made from vegetable oil with hydrogenation process at
the high temperature and high pressure, this process has high risk to explode.
This research was to study about heat transfer mechanism from electric heat
source to the reactor with avoid explode, by to avoid hydrogen contact with high
temperature above 500oC.
Heat transfer mechanism on the hydrogenation reactor was designed from
electric heat source transferred to the oil heater and then to the reactor. At
this research was studied effluence of the electric voltage to the temperature of the heating oil and the
water inside at the reactor.
The Result of this research was show increasing voltage cause increasing
speed of heating. At the all voltage increasing heating speed occur until 40
minutes as linier and after 40 minutes the heating speed decrease as
logarithmic. By indirect heating by electric source contact between hydrogen
and high temperature surface can be avoided.
