Hendra, D. (Pusat Penelitian dan Pengembangan Hasil Hutan, Bogor (Indonesia))
The experimental study on briquetting from leaf waste of cayeput oil distillation prepared by using the hydraulic press process is presented in this paper. The tapioca flour is used as adhesive with five different consentrations, i.e. 1 percent, 1.5 percent, 2 percent, 3 percent and 5 percent. The responses evaluated are the moisture content, ash content, volatile matter, density, crushing strength and calorific value. The result shows that moisture content ranges from 12,21-12,86 percent, ash content from 8,02-8,85 percent, volatile matter from 68,08-69,45 percent, density from 0,251-0,325 g/cubic cm, crushing strength from 9,60-19,82 kg/square cm and the calorific value from 4326,45-4473,05 cal/gr.
