“…The drastic yield reduction at the initial stage of thermal treatment (<500 °C) followed by a slow decrease thereafter has been observed for lignocellulosic biomass feedstocks. 37–41 These trends of reduction in biochar yield reflect the devolatilization of organic polymers of the feedstock and the slow carbonization of the solid residue. Quality properties such as fixed carbon and volatile matter contents increase and decrease with temperature, respectively.…”

“…Hal ini terjadi karena penelitian Iskandar and Rofiatin (2017) suhu dan waktu pembakaran lebih rendah dari pada penelitian ini, yaitu dengan suhu 300 o C selama 30 menit. Sedangkan pada penelitian Abdullah et al (2016) terjadi perbedaan hasil uji proksimat karena bahan baku yang digunakan untuk pembuatan biochar berbeda yaitu tandan kosong kelapa sawit.…”

Logam berat yang dihasilkan dari kegiatan perbengkelan, dapat mencemari tanah sehingga membahayakan kehidupan organisme dan lingkungan. Untuk menghindari hal tersebut, perlu adanya usaha pembenahan tanah, salah satunya dengan pemanfaatan biochar dari limbah pertanian. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah menganalisis pengaruh penambahan biochar sekam padi terhadap penyisihan logam berat Pb pada tanah tercemar. Biochar dibuat menggunakan mesin pirolisis dengan temperatur pembakaran 500 o C selama 1 jam dan diaktivasi dengan ZnCl 2 10%. Variasi dosis biochar yang ditambahkanke tanah adalah 10%; 12,5%; dan 15% (w/w) dengan lama inkubasi 30 hari. Dari hasil penelitian diketahui bahwa penambahan biochar dari sekam padi pada tanah memberikan pengaruh signifikan terhadap penyisihan logam Pb. Penyisihan logam berat Pb tertinggi terjadi pada penambahan dosis biochar 15% dengan efisiensi penyisihan 51,71% yang lebih besar daripada tanpa penambahan biochar yang hanya sebesar 0,88%.

“…Malaysia and Indonesia are the top producing countries of palm oil in the world, which together produced about 85% of the total world palm oil. Additional producing countries comprise Thailand, Columbia, Nigeria, Papua New Guinea and Ecuador [17]. Oil palm is the most important product that has changed the situation of the agricultural sector and economy in Malaysia.…”

This study is aimed at investigating the potentials of oil palm wastes as an alternative to fossil fuels (coal) for domestic heat generation via briquettes (solid fuels) production. In this study oil palm wastes such as empty fruit bunches (EFB), mesocarp fiber (MF) and palm kernel shell (PKS) were pyrolyzed at temperatures of 400°C for 120 min and a heating rate of 10°C min −1. The biochar and bio-oil obtained were blended in the ratio of 60:40 weight percentages and compressed at a constant pressure of 400 kg cm −2 for charcoal briquettes production. The combustion profiles, heat release of the charcoal briquettes and Malaysian sub-bituminous coal were analyzed and compared through thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). Comparably, MF and PKS charcoal briquettes had higher HHV of 26.15 and 25.99 MJ kg −1 , individually than coal which has 24.21 MJ kg −1 , while EFB charcoal briquette showed the lowest value 23.93 MJ kg −1. Therefore, it can be said that all the charcoal briquettes showed a positive sign to replace coal. The maximum and minimum heat released of 0.059 and 0.048 W were obtained from the combustion of EFB and MF charcoal briquettes. It was established that in each ton of raw (dry basis) of EFB, MF, and PKS, there is 0.177, 0.212 and 0.228 tons of charcoal briquettes which correspond to 1.866, 2.055 and 2.414 MW of heat. Therefore, the findings in this study could contribute toward achieving the targeted 500 MW of green energy initiated in 2005 by the Malaysian government. Furthermore, the production of charcoal briquettes could be one of the proper methods to minimize the agricultural disposal problem in Malaysia.
