Abstract
This research aimed to determine the effect of the adhesive types on rice husk briquettes in the TLUD gasification process. The types of adhesive used are starch, tar, and used oil. Rice husk briquettes have varied in two forms, namely cylindrical and block shapes. Each variation has a diameter of 1 inch and a side of 1 inch as well. Rice husk in uniform meshing with 20 mesh size. The Gasification process uses rice husk briquette as fuel. The next step is to insert 3 kg of briquettes into the gasification cylinder. Then ignited to start the gasification process. The type of gasification furnace used is the TLUD type. That is an updraft type gasification with initial ignition on the upper surface of the briquette fuel. Data collection was carried out to determine how much the sufficient flame temperature was and how long the gasification process’s adequate flame time took place and determine the briquettes’ quality by testing the water boiling test. These test results show that rice husk briquettes with used oil adhesive variations are better than other adhesive variations, reach an average temperature of 755°C, and boil 2 liters of water in 6 minutes.
