Characteristics Flavored Briquettes from Waste Wood Treatment Industry Woloan Houses on Stilts In Tomohon Indonesia

Abstract

Characteristics flavored briquettes from waste wood treatment industry Woloan houses on stilts in Tomohon Indonesia has been investigated. This study aims to determine the nature of therapeutic scented charcoal briquettes from waste wood and iron wood houses on stilts on the industry mix in Tomohon Woloan that have been through the process of authoring. Experimental method used was CRD factorial, while properties such as charcoal briquettes physical properties (density) and chemical properties (moisture content, ash content, volatile matter content, carbon content and calorific value bound) used a model approach LSD. Briquette-making process that is by using a compression clamp tool manual hydraulic capacity of 10,000 kg/cm 2 . Treatment of waste composition between wood charcoal iron and wood mix is 40:60 ( A1 ), 50:50 ( A2 ), 60:40 (A3), each treated charcoal composition cinnamon extract 2% (B1), 3% (B2), 4% (B3) and was not given the extract (B0) as a control variable. The results showed that the charcoal briquettes have a density from 0.52 to 0.56 g/cm 3 , water content ranged from 1.54 to 5.57%, from 5.25 to 6.32% ash content, volatile matter content of 8.89-9.96%, 83.74 to 85.77% bonded carbon content and calorific value ranges between 5,440,67- 5,650,67 cal/g. Briquettes best based on the results of the LSD treatment of waste composition 60% charcoal and 40% iron wood charcoal wood waste mix with the addition of cinnamon extract 4%.
