Analisis Konsentrasi Particulate Matter (Pm2,5) Dalam Udara Ruang Dari Aktivitas Pembakaran Briket Ampas Sagu Dengan Variasi Bentuk Briket
ABSTRACT
Sago pulp is waste from the processing of sago starch, which has yet to be utilized optimally. In this study, sago waste was processed into briquettes as an alternative energy source to replace fuel in the household. At the time of burning briquettes will produce pollutant emissions into the air, one of which is Particulate Matter (PM2.5). This study aims to determine the characteristics of sago pulp and sago pulp briquettes as well as the characteristics of briquette burning, calculate the concentration of PM2.5 from the combustion of briquettes, compare them with quality standards and analyze which form has the lowest concentration of PM2.5. Testing the concentration of PM2.5 using a Low Volume Air Sampler was carried out until the briquettes had burned out with variations in the shape of the briquettes, namely solid cylinder briquettes, hollow cylinders, cubes and prisms. In this study the water content, ash content, volatile content and calorific value of sago waste were 21.92%, 34.41%, 40.98% and 4.000 cal/gr while after the carbonization process they became briquettes, the values for water content, ash content, volatile content, calorific value and carbon content of 8.22%, 22.01%, 30.51%, 4.599 cal/gr and 56.85%. As for the most optimal combustion characteristics of briquettes, namely hollow cylinder briquettes with an ignition time of 09.31,79 minutes and a combustion rate of 0.050 gr/second. Based on the results obtained from this study, it was shown that the lowest concentration of PM2.5 was hollow cylinder briquettes. of 6.77 μg/m3. The concentration of PM2.5 produced is still below the quality standard according to Minister of Health Regulation No. 1077 of 2011 of 35 μg/m3, so the briquettes are safe for household use.
