KAJIAN POTENSI PENGGUNAAN BY PRODUCT INDUSTRI PERTANIAN DI KABUPATEN JEMBER SEBAGAI BAHAN BAKU PEMBUATAN BIOPELLET UNTUK BAHAN BAKAR ALTERNATIF
ABSTRACT: Biopellet is
potential alternative fuel sources to be developed that is made from the
agricultural industry by product such as cassava, corn, coconut, and rice. The
objectives of this study are determine the type of by-product of agricultural
industry in Jember which can be used as raw material for making biopellet; know
the most potential by-product of agricultural industry in to be a raw material
of biopellet. This study consists of three major stages first is preliminary
research, identification of agricultural and industrial by-product grading
by-product of agricultural industry. The method used in this research is a
laboratory analysis and survey.Potential waste rice and corn cobs have
relatively the same yield as the number of higher rice production from corn,
while corn has a yield greater waste than rice. Therefore, when viewed from the
potential waste out of the production of rice and corn, the rice and maize are
the most potential of agricultural commodities from agricultural waste amount
that comes out. Rice is a potential commodity to be used as raw material waste
due to the availability of the industry biopellet. When viewed as a whole the
results of the characterization of the physicochemical properties and heat
content, it can be seen that the waste oil and waste corn is a commodity that
has the potential to be used as raw material for making biopellet.
