ABSTRACT
Kerosene and liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) are commonly used in households, but the price of kerosene and lpg gas is very expensive. Oil palm empty bunches are still widely discarded and cannot be utilized optimally, therefore further processing is needed to become a product that has economic value. This study aims to provide knowledge that oil palm empty fruit bunches which are currently not optimally utilized can be used as raw materials for the manufacture of alternative fuels to reduce the use of fuel oil which is currently running low. Briquettes are made using the carbonization process to obtain materials in form of carbon particles which are then pulverized with a particle size of 100 mesh. Charcoal from carbonization was printed with the help of adhesives from starch (tapioca) and sago flour with adhesive concentrations of 5, 10 and 15%, respectively. After the molding process was carried out, the briquettes were baked in an oven for 1 hour at 100℃. Furthermore, the briquettes were tested for water content, ash content, calorific value, flame color and carbon content. The most optimal briquettes were found in variations of starch adhesive type with 5% adhesive concentration resulting in a moisture content of 7.07%; ash content 19%; calorific value 5746.39cal/gram; volatile substances content of 25% and carbon content of 49% with a yellowish red flame color. The empty fruit bunch briquettes produced in this study did not meet the SNI-01-6235-2000 standard so that they were not optimal enough to be used as alternative fuels to replace kerosene and lpg gas.
Key words : alternative fuels, briquettes, carbonization, Oil palm empty bunches
