“…Blending peel and shell wastes in different concentrations yielded briquettes with varying fuel properties, which are listed in the form of ranges. As a result, MC was between 4.01 and 8.42%, AC was between 3.83 and 11.14%, VM was between 64.28 and 80.12%, FC was between 9.36 and 13.87%, CV was between 18.24 and 21.05 MJ/kg, carbon was between 39.79 and 56.27%, hydrogen was between 4.8 and 5.60%, and oxygen was between 35.87 and 45.94% (Velusamy et al, 2022). Rice (Oryza sativa or Oryza glaberrima) are monocotic seed yielding grass species belonging to family Poaceae under the genus Oryza; and are grown for its cereal grain annually, especially for consumption as staple food.…”

Briquetting of biomass is an ideal technique for improvising both its volumetric and net energy density; besides, serving as an effective means for reducing pollution. In general, numerous biomass and organic by-products are discarded as wastes, citing their non-edibility, composition of chemical compounds present in their raw form, in addition to their zero usage value. Yet, these biomass wastes hold significant heating values, which promote them into promising solid biofuels, either in their existing or pre-treated form. Accordingly, this review article discusses about the various biomasses used as raw feedstock for briquetting, besides summarising the works carried out in relevance to their respective briquettes. In addition, proximate and lignocellulosic composition of these biomasses, and their pre-treatment techniques followed to prepare them for briquetting, have also been discussed. This study suggested that the heating value of biomasses ranged between 10-20 MJ/kg, whilst, their briquettes reported between 15 and 25 MJ/kg; thereby citing their potential as viable replacement for existing fossil coals. Besides, factors affecting different thermal and physicochemical properties of these briquettes have also been studied and concluded that these properties play a crucial role in deciding the overall quality of the briquettes. Ultimately, this study proposed that any biomass with good calorific value and lignin content can be processed into briquettes with good strength and durability; however, the choice of biomass will also be accounted for by its availability, geographical distribution, and handleability.

“…Abu yang dihasilkan dari pirolisis dengan interval suhu yang telah ditetapkan secara berurutan adalah 12, 01 %, 14,64%, 14,99 %, 15,255 dan di suhu tertinggi didapat abu sebanyak 21,98%. Pada penelitian yang telah dilakukan oleh Sampathkumar Velusamy, dkk yang menggunakan kulit bawang dan kulit asam jawa, kenaikan kadar abu dari 3,83% menjadi 11,14 %, hal ini tergantung dari bahan baku yang digunakan [17].…”

Tumbuhan Aren masuk dalam sepuluh besar komoditas perkebunan di Kalimantan Timur. Limbah kulit buah kolang-kaling selama ini belum banyak dimanfaatkan, kecuali untuk pupuk. Limbah kulit buah Aren memiliki tekstur tidak seragam, tetapi bagian dalam bertekstur keras, sehingga sehingga bisa dimanfaatkan untuk membuat arang. Arang dibuat dengan proses pirolisis dan dapat dimanfaatkan sebagai bahan baku briket sebagai salah satu sumber energi baru terbarukan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mendapatkan bioarang sebagai bahan baku pembuatan briket dengan nilai kalor yang paling tinggi melalui proses pirolisis. Pembuatan bioarang dimulai dengan proses pengeringan bahan baku kemudian dilanjutkan dengan pemanasan sampel dalam reaktor pirolisis selama 1 jam. Proses berlangsung dengan variable tetapnya adalah berat sampel sebesar 500 g dan waktu pemanasan selama 1 jam, dan variable berubahnya adalah suhu pembakaran. Pirolisis

“…Selain pembuatannya yang mudah, produk ini sangat sering digunakan karena kemampuannya dalam menghasilkan energi panas dengan baik tanpa menyebabkan asap yang berlebihan (Mustain et al, 2021). Beberapa penelitian pembuatan briket masih memanfaatkan limbah industri seperti limbah batok kelapa (Ansar et al, 2020), cangkang sawit (Dewita et al, 2020), dan cangkang buah asam (Velusamy et al, 2022). Namun belum banyak penelitian yang pembuatan briket dengan memanfaatkan limbah organik sekitar rumah atau lingkungan sekolah.…”

The increase in people's lifestyles raises problems of energy and waste crises. The energy crisis occurred due to a rise in energy demand due to the 4.0 industrial revolution era. Meanwhile, waste problems arise as a result of public consumption. This study aimed to create a product formulation for biomass briquettes with organic waste as the primary raw material. This study used the Experimental Design Completely Randomized Design (CRD) method with four formulations. The first formulation (V1) with the composition of rice husk: dry leaves: sawdust: cardboard, respectively 10:6:0:4, V2 (10:6:4:0), V3 (10:6:2:2), and V4 (10:2:6:2) Briquette quality testing uses four assessment indicators, namely shrinkage, ash content, combustion rate, and flame initiation time. The results showed that the composition of V2 briquettes was the best formulation with a shrinkage value of 92.52%, ash content of 7.48%, combustion rate of 0.0049 g/s, and flame initiation time of 2m 48s. Based on the research results, the Briquette V2formulation can be an affordable alternative energy solution to overcome the energy crisis in the world.
