Abstract
Utilization of durian shell waste as feed biomass in the pyrolysis process has been carried out. The results of the pyrolysis process produce bio-oil, gas, and biochar. Pyrolysis biochar can be used as a potential source of energy by converting it into biochar briquettes. This research is making biochar briquettes using a mixture of water and starch. The ratio between biochar and starch is 9: 1. The mixed material is then made biochar briquettes using a briquette printer with a pressure of 0.5 MPa. The results showed that biochar briquettes had better performance than durian shell biomass.
