Coal resources in Indonesia mostly (65 %) are categorized as LRC (Low Rank Coal). Currently, the Indonesian Government is encouraging to use LRC as the main source of energy in the national energy mixed policy, including the acceleration program of constructing 10,000 MW Power Plant. With the advanced technologies, such as Upgraded Brown Coal (UBC) process, LRC can be used optimally, particularly for the power plant. Suralaya Generation Business Unit (SGBU), which is the largest coal power plant in Indonesia, recently has to use lignite coal or low rank coal because the price of medium and high rank coal is too expensive. This paper conducted to identify the problems faced by SGBU in using lignite coal and to evaluate the benefit of UBC process if used in SGBU to be blended with lignite. From the evaluation, it can be concluded that UBC process will give benefit to SGBU by reducing ash pollution and give economic benefit of Rp 507 billion per year maximum.

Technology to make activated carbon from coal has been developed from laboratory to pilot plant scales with capacity of 1 ton/day. The results of previous experiments showed that the quality of coal activated carbon has complied with the standard of quality activated carbon from coconut shell (SNI). In addition, the result of coal utilization process showed that activated carbon can be used for water purification on hatchery, and waste water treatment in textiles and rubber industries. Although the technology and the quality have been reached, but for the production it still needs economic feasibility analysis. Economic feasibility analysis is necessary for coal- based activated carbon plant at commercial scale by giving an indication about economic value of the project. The indicators used in the analysis are Net Present Value (NPV), Return on Investment (ROI), Internal Rate of Return (IRR) and Payback Period. Calculation of financial indicators for the activated carbon project produced Rp 49.17 billion NPV, 50% ROI, 68,25% IRR and 1 year 4 months Payback Period. Based on that calculation, it can be concluded that the coal-based activated carbon plant would be economically feasible under certain operational scenarios. This study is expected to become an economic reference material and can attract inves- tors to construct the commercial plant.

Solvent extraction method is one of the methods to reduce ash content in coal to improve the energy efficiency and reduce negative environmental impacts. The use of 1-methyl naphthalene (1-MN) as a solvent in the weight ratio of coal to solvent of 1: 3, 1: 6 and 1: 9 using three coal samples obtained from a coal washing plant, namely ROM (run of mine), DC (dirty coal) and RC (reject coal) was performed. Results show that the ash content of the extracted coals no or significantly low amount (<0.3%) ash contents. The highest extraction yield was obtained at 15.38 % (daf) at DC coal sample and coal to solvent ratio of 1:9, while the lowest at 3.09 % (daf) at ROM coal sample and coal to solvent ratio of 1:3. In addition, the extraction process with a solution of 1-MN also able to reduce moisture content of the coals, as a result the calorific value of the coals were significantly increased.

STUDY ON COMBUSTION CHARACTERISTICS OF COAL-BIOMASS FOR CO-FIRING SYSTEM AS A FEEDSTOCK OF COAL GASIFICATION PROCESS Datin Fatia Umar; Gandhi Kurnia Hudaya; Fahmi Sulistyohadi

Biomass co-firing is recognised as a crucial technology to aid in the use of fossil fuels, particularly due to its relative ease of implementation. Many studies of the combustion processes associated with co-firing have been conducted elsewhere. This paper discusses the combustion characteristics of coal and torrefied biomasses. Combustion profiles can be used to study certain combustion properties of fuels and fuel blends. The biomass fuels utilized in this study include twig, trunk and weed as the wastes from tea plantation. The results of this work provide data concerning the combustion processes of co-firing determined by simultaneous thermal analysis (STA) methods. Simultaneous thermogravimetric & differential scanning calorimetry/differential thermal analysis (STA, TGA-DSC/DTA) measures both the heat flow (DSC) and the weight changes (TG) in a material as a function of temperature or time in a controlled atmosphere. The results indicate that the mixture of coal and torrefied trunk in the weight ratio of coal-trunk of 25:75 shows the best combustion performance compared to other compositions of coal – torrefied biomass.

THE AVAILABILITY OF INDONESIAN OIL PRODUCT THAT IS USED IN THE UPGRADED BROWN COAL PROCESS Iwan Rijwan; BUKIN DAULAY; Gandhi Kurnia Hudaya

Indonesian coal has a potential to be a major future primary energy source due to its large resource, easy and low cost of exploitation, good quality and supported by appropriate infrastructure. However, more than 65% of the coal resources are categorized as LRC and this type of coal needs to be upgraded before it is used and transported for a long distance. One of the upgrading processes is UBC. Kerosene, LSWR and spray oils are used for UBC process as heating media, material for closing coal pores and oil for briquette machine, respectively. The specification and price of kerosene in Indonesia which is used for both household and industries are controlled by PT PERTAMINA. However in the case of LSWR, PT PERTAMINA does not control the quality and the price. Therefore in the market there are different of qualities and prices of LSWR. All oil refineries belong to PT PERTAMINA produces LSWR and kerosene. They guarantee the con- tinuity of oil supply to customer. They recommend to utilize a heavy aromatic for kerosene substitu- tion and asphalt and decant oil to substitute LSWR. The oil will be transported to the UBC plant from the nearest oil refinery using lorries or tankers transportation agency that is recommended by PT PERTAMINA.
