PENGGUNAAN ENERGI SURYA UNTUK PENJERNIHAN AIR GAMBUT MENGGUNAKAN REFLEKTOR CERMIN CEKUNG
Abstract: A research has been
done in distillation peat water using solar energy heaters concave reflector
mirrorwith two variations of different containers, each container is made of
aluminum, one painted blackand the other without painted. Concave mirror
reflector is made with a diameter of 2.2 meters, heightof 0.3 meter mirror and
its focal length of 1 meter. Reflector placed on the ground and lit directly
bysunlight. Collector containing peat water samples reflectors placed on the
right in the position of thefocal point. During heating, the temperature was
measured every hour with observation time from08.00 to 16.00. Observations were
made during the fourteen days, ie the first seven days ofobservation to the
container without painted and seven days a second container painted black in
thesunny weather. The results showed that the maximum temperature of the peat
water samples of usecontainers without painted is 89˚C and the maximum
temperature at the focal point is 93˚C. Resultspeat water distillation highest
volume 311 ml is obtained. Observations for distillation in blackpainted
container obtained maximum temperature of 91˚C and peat water is the
maximumtemperature at the focal point was 96C. Results peat water distillation
highest volume 355 ml isobtained. Results of laboratory testing of peat water
samples of prior to distillation of the colorparameter is 1368 Pt-Co and
laboratory testing peat water after distillation to 65 Pt-Co, it shows
thesample after the distillation process has increased the quality is very
significant.
