1. Introduction
Demand for energy, including fuel oil (BBM) is an important global issue of both energy consumption related
to human needs and the resources and the effects of the use of energy sources. Various policies and efforts were
made to maintain the balance of supply and sustainable world energy needs, resulting in a mix of energy policy at
the national or global level must take into account the economic and environmental impact [1, 2, 3].

Indonesia is a country which is rich in agricultural crops that potential to be used as renewable energy from
biomass. There is 50,000 MW potential capacity and already utilized only 320 MW or 0.64% of the existing
potentials [3]. Biomass potential in Indonesia which temporarily used is from palm oil, the waste of the rice mills,
wood, polywood, sugar mill waste, cocoa and other agricultural waste. In this case, waste that is not widely used yet
is durian peel. Local durian production in Indonesia is 683,232 tons per year. Many kinds of good quality durian is
not only from Indonesia, but also from import, which from 2004 to 2010 is growing up.
Generally most of the durian shell waste is only used as furnace fuel, or burned away, so it can cause environmental
pollution [4]. Durian peel conversion into briquettes by increasing density will increase the economic value of the
material, as well as reducing environmental pollution.
Briquette charcoal is a solid fuel from organic matter containing carbon, which has a high calorific value, and can be
lit in a long time [5]. Bio charcoal is charcoal obtained by burning dry biomass without air o (pyrolysis). Biomass is
organic material derived from living things. Actual biomass can be used directly as a source of heat energy for fuel,
but is less efficient because of the small density. Value of biomass fuel is only about 3,000 calorics [6, 7].
Pyrolysis is the chemical decomposition process by using heating in the absence of oxygen. This process is
called carbonization process for obtaining carbon or charcoal. Generated in the pyrolysis process gases, such as CO,
CO2, CH4, H2, and light hydrocarbons. Type of gas produced varies depends on the raw materials. For example, coal
pyrolysis produce gas such as CO, CO2, NO, and SO. In large quantities, these gases is able to pollute the
environment and endanger human health directly and indirectly. Bio charcoal briquette has several advantages
compared to regular (conventional) charcoal, among others: (a) Bio charcoal powerfully produce up to 5,000 calorie
(b) The ignition of bio charcoal briquette does not produce smoke and odor, so it is practical for the bad economy
society who live in cities with inadequate ventilation in their house (c) there is bo need to fan bio charcoal after it
was on fire and to be ember, (d) Equipment pressed formed as needed [7, 8].
2. Material and method
2.1 Material

2.3 Data analysis
Data obtained from the experiment, with the replication of three (3) times. Data analysis use Anova (Analysis of
Variance) univarian at significance level α = 5% compared to P, the result P is 0.05. If there is a significant
difference then continued by using the Tukey test at level α = 5%. The data consists of variables influence the
carbonization temperature 200-500oC response variable weighting materials after carbonization, fixed carbon
content, moisture content, volatile matter, ash content, heating value, and density.
3. Results and discussion
3.1 After carbonization mass materials
In this study, the researcher used dry durian’s peel with 15,30% water content. Treatment process carbonization
at a temperature of 200-500oC measured weights of materials, can be seen in Figure 2.

Fig. 2. Effect of carbonization temperature on mass material after carbonization.
Figure 2 shows that the greater the weight after the temperature treatment the smaller the weight after
carbonization. This is due to the temperature of 225-500 ° C to evaporate the water content, cellulose, hemicellulose,
and lignin decompose, so it effect the weight of the material after carbonization process [4, 9, 10].
3.2 Fixed carbon levels
Based on the calculation of the difference in weight of the material before and after the process, carbonization is
a fixed carbon or carbonized future can be seen in Figure 3. In Figure 3 shows that the higher the temperature is, the
more increase carbon content resulted. Anova results at α = 5% significance obtained P > 0.05 indicates that the
treatment temperature significantly affect fixed carbon content. Followed by using Tukey's/ HSD, the results of the
treatment of data is no real difference to the temperature of the carbon content, calorific value and volatile
substances can be seen in Table 1.

Description: The same letter in the same column are not depending on Tukey test.
Tukey test results explained that at each temperature treatment there was an increase in the carbon content
remains a significant and real difference, medium calorific value with temperature treatments would show
significant improvement of the volatile substances the price will drop significantly means that there is a real
difference. A fuel is said to have a good quality when having a high carbon content and has a high calorific value as
well, this can be seen in Figure 3. Carbonization process is incomplete combustion in the absence of oxygen,
resulting in the release of volatile compounds in the form of gas or smoke and leaves carbon residue gas or charcoal.
The higher the carbonization temperature resulted in higher fixed carbon content [11]. Carbon formation during the
carbonization process both at a temperature of 300-500 °C and will cause smoke caused by the release of volatile
elements cellulose (C6H10O5) n at temperature 325-375 oC, were hemi cellulose (C5H8O4) n will decompose 225-

325 °C. Lignin [(C9H10O)3 (CH3O)]n will decompose at will decompose at temperatures of 300-500°C [4].
3.3 Water content and ash content
Water content after carbonization at a temperature of 200-500oC can be seen in Figure 3, the higher the
temperature the smaller the water content, due to the higher temperature of the water the more evaporated. Based on
the Anova test of significance α = 5% is obtained P> 0.05, indicating that the treatment temperature significantly
affect the fixed carbon content. Furthered by BNJ uses Tukey, temperature treatment is significantly different.
Highest water content is 0.28% lower than the briquette mixture of coconut shell and wood dust which is between
4.74%. Price levels of ash in this study 18.8% greater than the corn cob briquettes, wood distance, standard charcoal
Japan can be seen in Table 4. Ash content of briquette hardwood briquette is from 0.35 to 0.5%. High ash content
which can affect the caloric value of a charcoal briquette [12].
3.4 Volatile matter
On the carbonization process occurs volatile matters such as carbon, hydrogen, oxygen is the result of the
treatment temperature of 200-500 ° C can be seen in Figure 3.

3.5 Calorific value
After the carbonization process, the material was made to powder and was picked 100 mesh in size to facilitate
testing on the calorific value of the combustion process with oxygen / O2 in bomb calorimetry, because the smaller
the particle size (zoom level) so that the faster burning material. Result of the influence of carbonization temperature
on the calorific value of 100 mesh particle size is presented in Figure 4.
Fig. 4. Carbonization temperature of 200-500 ° C versus calorific value (cal/g).
Figure 4 shows that the highest calorific value was 6274.29 cal / g This occurs at a temperature of 450 oC.
material difference in weight before and after carbonization of carbonization temperature interval 200-500°C the
smaller, due to water content, volatile matter, cellulose, and hemicellulose decomposes into carbon at a temperature
of 225-325 ° C, while the lignin will break down into carbon at 300 -500 oC. [16] states that the carbonization is
incomplete combustion in the absence of oxygen, resulting in the release of volatile compounds in the form of gas or
smoke and leave the residue gas or charcoal in the form of carbon. Carbon will not burn without oxygen, so the
higher the temperature carbonization, resulting in higher carbon content (Figure 3). In the carbonization process,
carbon is formed in both the 300-500oC temperature and will cause smoke caused by the release of volatile elements
cellulose, hemicellulose, lignin, and fiber [4, 9]. Durian peel briquettes calorific value is greater than palm shell
briquettes, coal briquette mix (type of lignite) and coconut fiber on a comparison of 30%: 70%, teak wood sawdust
briquettes, rice husk but smaller than the calorific value of bio-briquettes from coconut shell charcoal at a
temperature of 500oC, coal and cob corn briquettes calorific/ fuel [15].
3.6 Density
Bio briquette density values 100 mesh particle size were obtained at a temperature of 450 °C is 0.99 g / ml is
presented in Figure 5. The greater the density the higher the carbonization temperature is a significant thing with
calorific values obtained, according to a statement Syamsirol that biomass has a low enough density and when it is
in the form of bio briquette have a high enough density [7]. Durian peel bio briquette density is smaller than the biobriquettes from hardwood 1.4 g / ml [12] and included in the range standard density briquettes from Japan, which is
0.9 to 1.0 [17].

results have compressive strength N/cm2 14.65 and 15.10 N/cm2. 100 mesh particles have a greater density of
particles, so the price is higher compressive strength, according research Yudanto et al. that the manufacture of
briquettes from sawdust bioarang teak vanishingly small particle size the higher the price of compressive strength
[14].
4. Conclusion
