Rice husk charcoal is starting to be looked at to replace gasoline and gas as alternative energy. Began to be used in countries with four seasons as a heater in winter.
There are also those who use it for other needs. Premium burnt husk for planting media mix.
Benefits of Burnt Husk:
- Maintain Soil Structure so that it is loose. ...
- Maintain Nutrients. ...
- Soil pH Becomes Increase. ...
- Can Absorb Toxins. ...
- Can Overcome Soil Damaged by Chemicals. ...
- Air Circulation Planting Media Maintained.
For the recommended planting media mix:
1:1:1(organic fertilizer+burnt husk+soil)
Fabrication and characterization of rice husk charcoal bio briquettes
Rice husk is the outermost part of the rice seed which is a hard layer and is a waste material from rice milling. Rice husk is a biomass that can be used for various needs such as industrial raw materials or as a source of energy or fuel, but only a small number of people use it.
This research was conducted by utilizing rice husk as an alternative fuel by turning it into charcoal briquettes. To facilitate the processing, the rice husk biomass is first converted into charcoal powder by the carbonization method using two types of furnaces that have different heating properties.
The best carbonization results are obtained from the furnace, which has a constant temperature heating behavior. The process of making briquettes is made by adding tapioca flour with a concentration of 6% by weight as a charcoal adhesive and then printed with the help of a press using a load of 1,000 kg/cm2.
The resulting briquettes have a calorific value of about 3.126 cal/g, a mass density of 0.86 g/cm3 and a compressive strength of about 2.02 kg/cm2, so that the bio-charcoal briquettes produced can be used as alternative energy to replace fossil fuels. for household or household use.
