PENGARUH VARIASI PEREKAT TERHADAP NILAI KALOR BRIKET DARI SERBUK DAUN TEH
Abstract
Research has been carried out on the effect of adhesive variations on the heating value of briquettes made from tea leaf powder. This study aims to determine the quality of the briquettes produced, this research is motivated by the increasing need for human fuel, so that researchers use tea leaf powder as the main ingredient in making briquettes. The variation of the sample used was tea leaf powder using adhesives in the form of tapioca, wheat flour and molasses as adhesives. With a ratio of 80%:20% and 70%:30%. The analysis carried out is the Calorific Value test. The results obtained from the Calorific value test of briquettes with the best quality approaching the quality standards of Indonesian briquettes were obtained in sample C2 with a composition (70%:30%) which resulted in a heat absorption value of 112.86 cal/gram.
