Abstract

Currently, electricity use in Indonesia has soared and continues to increase every year. New renewable energy will be the main alternative for the country as a source of electricity. Alternative energy sources can come from biomass such as Siwalan shell waste. This waste has a composition of 18.52% hemicellulose, 11.90% cellulose, 0.23% lignin, 0.1% nitrogen, 13.80% water, 4.46% ash, 44.58% carbon and 6.41% volatile matter. % which is the chemical component of the basic ingredient for making activated carbon. Thus, the aim of this research is to determine the capacitance of a battery prototype from activated carbon from Siwalan shell waste. The method used is a quantitative method by taking data from the results of the Brunauer Emmett Teller test and the Cyclic Voltammetry test. Carbon is activated using KOH with varying concentrations of 1 M; 1.5 M; 2M; 2.5 M. The results of the surface area of activated carbon in the BET test were 13,636 m2/g; 20,941 m2/g; 28,191 m2/g; and 29,871 m2/g and in manual calculations using the BET method it was obtained 13,647 m2/g; 20,950 m2/g; 28,197 m2/g; and 29,875 m2/g. From testing and manual calculations, Siwalan shell carbon at a KOH concentration of 2.5 M has the largest surface area and has the potential to be the best active carbon material for making battery prototypes.
