Daftar Isi:
- National energy demand has been fulfilled by non-renewable energy sources, such as natural gas, petroleum, coal and so on. However, non-renewable energy reserves deplete increasingly which can cause an energy crisis. Conversion of biomass into energy becomes one of the solutions to overcome it. Indonesia has an enormous biomass potential, especially from tamarind. Tamarinds produce waste tamarind shells. These wastes can be treated with gasification technology to produce syngas. The gasification model used in this research is downdraft gasifier equipped with a cyclone to separate gas with solid or liquid gasification process. The more dry waste of Javanese tamarind, the more syngas produced during the gasification process. And the more dry waste of Javanese tamarind, then the longer the expenditure time of syngas. In syngas analysis known at 5 ml syngas contain 3,046% of CH4, 14,337% CO and 9,031% H2.
