Pengaruh Penambahan Variasi Dosis Biochar Ampas Tebu (Sacharum Officinarum L.) Terhadap Emisi Karbon Dioksida (Co2) Di Tanah Gambut
ABSTRACT
Carbon in peat soil persists in the form of organic matter, which, when peat forests are cleared, can easily decompose and emit CO2 as a result of soil respiration. Carbon sequestration is an effort to store carbon in the soil using organic solids such as biochar. One biomass that can be utilized to produce biochar is sugarcane bagasse. Sugarcane bagasse contains lignocellulosic content and is abundantly available.The objective of this research is to determine the characteristics of sugarcane bagasse biochar through proximate analysis and to analyze the effect of adding sugarcane bagasse biochar at various doses on CO2 emissions from peat topsoil using the Acid-Base Titration method. Sugarcane bagasse biochar was carbonized at a temperature of 600°C for 1 hour and activated using 5 M KOH for 48 hours. The biochar was then added to peat soil at doses of 0, 10, 12.5, and 15% (w/w) with an incubation period of 10 days. The sugarcane bagasse biochar produced complied with the Indonesian National Standard (SNI 06-3730-1995). The research results showed that the addition of biochar had a significant impact on increasing CO2 emissions. The addition of 10% biochar increased CO2 emissions by 98% on the 4th day of incubation compared to soil without biochar addition, amounting to 14.64 mg CO2.
