Abstract

Empty Fruit Bunches (EFB) are one of the palm oil industry wastes, which are quite plentiful and currently unused optimally. Biomass is one of the renewable energy resources which has important roles in the world. The bio-briquettes are manufactured through densification of waste biomass by implementing certain processes. This research aimed to obtain variations in the mold temperature at 150 ºC, 200 ºC, and 250 ºC to the calorific value and toughness of the briquette material. The toughness was tested using ASTM D 440-86 R02 standard. Arduino program was used for setting the heating resistance time of the mold, which was 20 minutes and the thermal controller was used to adjust the temperature variation. The average mold pressure was 58 Psi. The highest heating value was obtained at a mold temperature of 250 ºC with a value of 5256 cal/g, and the lowest was resulted at a temperature of 150 ºC (4117 cal/g). Meanwhile, the briquette toughness test at 200 ºC mold temperature indicated good data results in which the average loss of fiber particles was only 4.17 %, this was because the adhesion between particles by lignin and cellulose in the fiber functions optimally at this temperature so that the resistance of briquettes went through minor damage.

Abstract

Indonesia is the largest producer of palm oil in the world, contributing 59 % of global production in 2022. The palm oil industry is a pillar of the economy and a source of foreign exchange through agricultural exports. To increase productivity and global competitiveness, strategies are needed, including improving cultivation technology and determining optimum harvest times through the application of appropriate cultivation technology. This research aims to increase oil palm productivity by focusing on the harvest time of Fresh Fruit Bunches (FFB). The sample used was Tenera variety palm FFB with two levels of ripeness, namely 140-160 DAP and 200-220 HSP. Non-destructive technology can accurately measure the optimum ripeness level of FFB. This approach uses thermal camera technology for nondestructive evaluation, recording the intensity of infrared radiation from TBS. All measurement parameters resulting from thermal image processing (RGB, L*a*b and temperature) will be used as input variable data to be modeled with oil content free fatty acid data in the laboratory. The model design will be built using the Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and Partial Least Square (PLS) methods. The results showed that the coefficient of determination (R2) for oil content was 0.8681 and free fatty acid content was 0.786. Keywords: FFB, Nondestructive, Oil content, PLS, Thermal properties
