PEMANFAATAN TONGKOL JAGUNG DAN LIMBAH THE SEBAGAI BAHAN BRIKET
ABSTRACT: Briquette is one of
the biomass fuels which is used as a simple, inexpensive alternative energy
source. Biomass used in this research were corncob and tea waste. The aim of
this research was to find out the composition of Bio-Carbon Briquette
processing from corncob and tea waste and to determine the best Bio one.
Testing was conducted by using a non-factorial completely randomized design
with parameters of water content, density, calorific value, and ash content. The
results of this research showed that the composition of the briquette materials
had highly significant effect on water content, density, calorific value, and
ash content. The best water content in this research was 2.89% that met
Japanese, American, British and Indonesian standards. The Density value was
0.415 g/cm3 which did not meet briquettes of Japanese, America, British and
Indonesian standards. The best calorific value in this research was 10052.08
cal/g that met Japanese, American, British and Indonesian standards. The best
ash content value in this research was 2.83% that met Japanese, American,
British and Indonesian standards.
