PIROLISIS LAMBAT CAMPURAN CANGKANG SAWIT DAN PLASTIK DENGAN KATALIS ZEOLIT ALAM
Abstract: This research
purposes to find out the characteristic of slow pyrolysis of palm kernel shell
and plastic derived from waste grocery bags mixtures with the catalyst
addition. Palm kernel shell was mixed with plastic in the persentages of 0%,
10%, 20% dan 30%. The mixtures of palm kernel shell and plastic were feeded in
the fixedbed pyrolyzer with the natural zeolite as catalyst. Pyrolyzer was
heated and controlled in the temperature of 400oC, 450oC and 500oC. Vapor
produced by pyrolysis process was condensed by seperated water cooling. Liquid
condensation was collected and measured its weight then analyzed by using GCMS
to determain the composition of bio-oil formed from this processes. The
research results that the higher temperature pyrolyzer the higher conversion of
palm kernel shell and plastic mixtures is by reducing char product. The
addition of natural zeolit as catalyst affects in the increase of phenol,
alkane and alkene compounds with the reduction of acid compounds.
