Abstract

In order to produce charcoals from the candlenut shell, a tool is need such as candlenut carbonization tool using a vertical multi chambers (CCT-VMC). The tool is indicated some weaknesses; the oxygen kept flowing into the chambers when cooling process are carried out, so oxidation occurred in the last phase of producing charcoal. This was due to some holes on the tools are not being able to close perfectly. The aims of the research are to produce a carbonization tool that are able to reduce the oxidation when cooling process being performed by reducing the openings on the tool and to determine the tool’s capacity. The tool was designed by utilizing Autodesk Inventor 2018 software. The result shows that the tool has two vertical chambers that provide space for adequate air supply when performing a burning process. The main components are a half metal drum, a chamber barrier, and a cover. It is also found that the tool needs 9.5 hour to process 24 kg of candlenut which consist of 2 hours for burning process and 7.5 hours for cooling process.
