Abstract
Rice husk is one of the biomass wastes from agriculture which is used as an alternative energy source in the form of briquettes. These briquettes are used as fuel in aluminum stoves. This study aims to analyze the performance of rice husk charcoal briquettes at various times of immersion in kerosene. The research method was carried out using experimental methods by testing rice husk charcoal briquettes on five variations in soaking time, namely 0 minutes, 5 minutes, 15 minutes, and 20 minutes, after testing on an aluminum stove alternately with the process of boiling water. The results showed that the highest flame temperature, ignition duration, ability to boil water, and highest thermal efficiency were 798% at 120 minutes, 24 liters, and 69.88% at 20 minutes of immersion.
