Pengaruh Rasio Bahan Baku Dan Variasi Ukuran Partikel Terhadap Biobriket Hasil Pemanfaatan Limbah Tandan Kosong Sawit Dan Lumpur Ipal Produksi Minyak Sawit
ABSTRACT
The enhancement in the use of fossil energy sources causes energy sources to run
low so it must be balanced with the supply of alternative energy that can be
renewed. Palm oil mill sludge has high organic matter content but has not been
utilized optimally. WWTP sludge in palm oil production with the addition of
empty fruit bunch can be used as raw material for making briquettes through the
carbonization process. This study aims to study the effect of variations in
treatment on the calorific value and compressive strength of the briquettes
produced. In this study the WWTP sludge in palm oil production was carbonated
at 300°C for 60 minutes and empty fruit bunch at 450°C for 90 minutes.
Variations of variables used were particle size -80/+100, -100/+120, and -
120/+140 mesh and the composition of empty fruit bunch and WWTP sludge in
palm oil production were 90%:10%, 80%:20%, 70%:30%, and 60%:40%. The
results showed that the best briquette heating value were obtained on the
composition of raw materials 90%:10% with a particle size of -80/+100 mesh
were the heating value of 5310,46 cal/gr and the best compressive strength were
obtained on the composition of raw materials 90%:10% with a particle size of -
120/+140 mesh were compressive strength of 5.59 kg/cm2 . Based on the results of
the ANOVA test, it was shown that the composition of raw materials and the
variation of particle size had significant effect with significant value of α was 5%
on the calorific value and compressive strength of the briquettes produced.
