The purpose of this study was to analyze the quality of charcoal biobriquettes from a mixture of palm fruit shells (Arenga pinnata) and water hyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes) under a pressure of 10 tons, which included moisture content, density, ash content, volatile matter, bound carbon and heating value. The research method includes preparation of test samples, testing the characteristics of biobriquettes using the SNI test method. 06-3730-1995 covering moisture content, density, ash content, volatile matter, bound carbon and heating value. Biobriquettes use 10% tapioca adhesive and 10 tons of pressure with 5 treatments (A: 100% palm shell charcoal; B: 75% palm shell charcoal + 25% water hyacinth charcoal; C: 50% palm shell charcoal + water hyacinth charcoal goiter 50% ; D: palm shell charcoal 25% + water hyacinth charcoal 75%; E hyacinth charcoal 100%) and 3 replications. The results showed that bioricket made from a mixture of palm fruit shells and water hyacinth with a pressure of 10 tons had physical properties, namely water content ranging from 3.3952-8.8377% with a density of 0.6488-1.0363 g/cm³, chemical properties namely ash content 1.4440-14.4133%, volatile matter 34.9767- 47.6800% and heating value 4282.0-5614.05 cal/g. |
