GASIFIKASI BIOMASSA (AMPAS TEBU) SISTEM UPDRAFT SINGLE GAS OUTLET DENGAN SISTEM PEMBERSIH FILTER JERAMI (DITINJAU DARI DISTRIBUSI TEMPERATUR PADA REAKTORTERHADAP SPESIFIC FUEL CONSUMED)

Decreasing of the availability of fuels derived from fossil sources makes us vigilant and look for sources of fuel that can be updated. Sugar cane is the biomass that is competent used as a source of renewable energy, the utilization of bagasse can reduce waste produced by sugar mills, and also carbon content contained very high bagasse that can be converted by means of gasification. Gasification is a thermochemical conversion of biomass to produce combustible gas so that it can provide an alternative in energy use. Studies using single updraft gasifier gas outlet system with straw filter cleaning system with experimental methods conducted in the state polytechnic of Sriwijaya laboratory. Research gasification to produce syngas made from sugar cane that brings so much impurity particles used in the form of wet scrubber filter and straw filter function produces syngas which is more environmentally friendly. temperature data collection at four points gasification reactor to determine the temperature distribution in the reactor to obtain the zone drying, pyrolysis, reduction, and oxidation. The energy content of LHV syngas best reviewed when the reactor temperature 8500C achievement of stability and reactor temperature in the range of 700-8000C for 70 minutes. The higher the value LHV syngas then is inversely proportional to the fuel consumption / the specific fuel consumed which will be less, because the better the value LHV carbon conversion into syngas (CH4, CO, and H2) higher and reduce unburned carbon. At optimal conditions, namely the achievement of 8500C temperature produces the energy conversion efficiency of 37%. Keyword : Gasification, Biomass, Sugar Cane, Straw Filters, Syngas
