Abstract

This research investigates the effects of incorporating potassium nitrate (KNO₃) into coconut shell charcoal briquettes, emphasizing their physical and chemical characteristics. Briquettes were manufactured utilizing coconut shell charcoal powder, tapioca flour as a binder, and different concentrations of KNO₃ (0% and 10%) as an additive. The aim was to assess the impact of KNO₃ incorporation on the water content, ash content, volatile matter, fixed carbon, calorific value, and density of the briquettes. The findings indicated that incorporating KNO₃ resulted in elevated water and ash content, adversely affecting combustion efficiency. Briquettes with increased water content demonstrated reduced mechanical strength and inferior combustion performance. The addition of KNO₃ led to an increased volatile matter content, facilitating ignition of the briquettes while simultaneously resulting in higher smoke emissions. The addition of KNO₃ resulted in a decrease in fixed carbon content, which subsequently lowered the calorific value of the briquettes. The formulation without KNO₃ produced the densest briquette, suggesting that including KNO₃ reduced the briquette density. The inclusion of KNO₃ enhances ignition characteristics; however, it concurrently diminishes the briquettes' overall quality regarding combustion efficiency and calorific value. The Briquette B_1 exhibited the highest results in this investigation, with water content, ash content, volatile matter, fixed carbon content, calorific value, and density values of 4.97%, 1.87%, 17.25%, 80.88%, 7014 Cal/g, and 0.90 g/cm³, respectively.

Abstract

The average learning outcomes of eleventh-grade students in 2024 indicate a disparity between psychomotor skills (88), which are higher, and cognitive skills (83). Augmented Reality (AR)-based learning is expected to have the potential to enhance the conceptual abilities of vocational high school students, who tend to be less developed than their psychomotor skills. The purpose of this study was to analyze the feasibility of the module, evaluate its effectiveness, and assess the improvement of students’ cognitive abilities. This research employed the ADDIE development model (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation). The findings revealed that the AR-based module was deemed feasible by both material experts and media experts, with a CVR value of 1. Of the 37 cognitive test items developed, 26 were found to be valid and used in the study, while 11 questions were excluded due to invalidity. The reliability coefficient of 0.854 indicated very high instrument consistency. Based on the N-Gain test, the experimental class recorded an improvement of 0.61 (moderately effective), while the control class achieved only 0.21 (ineffective). These results demonstrate that the AR-based module is more effective in enhancing students’ cognitive abilities compared to conventional learning methods.
