Abstract

PT. Bukit Asam memiliki kualitas batubara yang berbeda-beda mulai dari kalori 4001 – 7001 kkal/kg. Konsumen PT Bukit Asam yaitu PLTU Suralaya dengan permintaan market brand BA 48 dan parameter yang diminta total moisture 30%, Ash 8%, total sulfur 0,8%, dan kalori 4800 kkal/kg. Agar hasil blending yang diiginkan optimal maka akan dilakukan pengoptimalan menggunakan perhitungan metode simpleks dengan bantuan aplikasi Pom-Qm for windows V3. Tujuan dari penelitian ini yaitu menemukan persentase pencampuran batubara hasil blending dengan metode simplek sesuai kontrak permintaan konsumen serta merekomendasikan proporsi yang optimal untuk dilakukan blending. Metodologi penelitian yang digunakan yaitu kualitatif dan kuantitatif. Dari hasil yang didapatkan presentase yang dibutuhkan untuk memenuhi permintaan PLTU Suralaya yaitu menggunakan mine brand MT 47 dan AL 53 dengan persentase 49% MT 47 : 51% AL 53. Hasil kualitas batubara total moisture 29,99%, abu 3,09%, sulfur 0,57%, dan kalori 4817 kkal/kg hasil ini memenuhi permintaan PLTU Suralaya.

Abstract

The process of processing sandstone material at the PT Pulau Lemon crushing unit is not yet optimal. This is due to differences in the amount of material entering and leaving the crushing unit. To optimize the performance of the processing unit, it is necessary to conduct research on the causes of material loss. Furthermore, the research aims to: 1) calculate material loss; 2) assess the causes of material loss and determine efforts to minimize material loss. The research was carried out using mathematical calculations using mass balance equations for material entering and leaving the processing unit, field observations and interviews. The research results showed that the amount of incoming material was 16.66 tons/day and outgoing material was 14.85 tons/day, so the material lost was 1.81 tons/day. or 10.80%. Material loss is caused by the slope of the conveyor belt being less than gentle and some parts being torn, wind, rain and mechanical problems. Efforts to optimize the performance of processing units include reducing waiting times, regularly checking and repairing equipment, and installing roofs.
