"Interest in using biomass energy as an alternative to fossil fuels has advanced in recent years. This study aimed to assess the effects of torrefaction on the quality of pyrolysis products. Oil palm biomass, such as empty fruit bunches (EFB), mesocarp fiber (MF) and palm kernel shell (PKS) were either untreated (untorrefied) or torrefied (treated), and subsequently pyrolyzed. The experiment’s conditions for torrefaction were set to be a 220°C temperature, a 10°C/min heating rate, and 30 minutes holding time, and for pyrolysis they were set to a 650°C temperature, 20°C/min heating rate and 2 hours holding time. The nitrogen flow rate of 2L/min was maintained for both experiments. The results revealed that the torrefaction pretreatment improved the heating value of the torrefied biomass to 18–21 MJkg-1 from the previous value of 16–19 MJkg-1 for the untorrefied biomass. During torrefaction, the PKS showed a high solid yield of 95% due to high lignin content. The higher heating value (HHV) of the biochar and bio-oil derived from untorrefied and torrefied biomass were between 26–30 MJkg-1 and 16–17 MJkg-1 for the former, and 28–31 MJkg-1, and 17–20 MJkg-1 for the latter. The maximum HHV of 31.2 MJkg-1 was obtained from torrefied PKS biochar. The pyrolysis of torrefied biomass gave higher quality biochar and bio-oil compared to untorrefied biomass. The bio-oil acquired from the pyrolysis of the torrefied sample is less acidic and has a higher calorific value in comparison with the bio-oil obtained from the untorrefied sample. MF and PKS have demonstrated a superior outcome after torrefaction. In this way, the PKS and MF were identified as better biomass for torrefaction and pyrolysis compared to EFB."

"Bio-oil produced by biomass pyrolysis contains high oxygenates, namely, carboxylic acids, alcohols, and ketones resulting in low calorific fuel, and therefore bio-oil requires upgrading to sequester these oxygenates. By conducting the co-pyrolysis of biomass and plastic feed blend, the donation of hydrogen by plastic free radicals to the oxygen of biomass free radicals may sufficiently reduce oxygenate compounds in the bio-oil and increase its yield. Therefore, the synergetic effects are functional. Currently, co-pyrolysis reactors have high aspect ratios (ratio of height to diameter) of 4 or more and small diameters (maximum 40 mm), in which the heat transfer from the furnace to the feed blend is immaterial even though the plastic material has low thermal conductivity. However, in large-scale reactors, such a design restricts the bio-oil’s capacity due to the heat transfer constraint. To resolve the latter and to improve bio-oil quality, in the present work, the co-pyrolysis of corn cobs and polypropylene (PP) is conducted in a stirred-tank reactor with a low aspect ratio (2). PP composition in the feed blend was varied from 0-100% weight with a 12.5% weight interval, heating rate of 5oC/min, and final temperature of 500oC. The results show that by increasing the PP composition in the feed blend from 37.5% to 87.5%, the bio-oil yield increased from 25.8% to 67.2% feed weight. An analysis of bio-oil quality shows that there was a favorably abrupt increase of non-oxygenate composition in the bio-oil from less than 5% to more than 70% as the PP composition in the feed blend was increased from 37.5% to 50% and more."

"Biomassa merupakan salah satu sumber energi terbesar setelah batubara, minyak bumi, dan gas alam. Saat ini biomassa digunakan untuk berbagai pemanfaatan, salah satunya adalah sebagai sumber dari asap cair, atau sering disebut dengan bio-oil. Bio-oil dapat diproduksi dengan berbagai metode. Metode yang cukup sering digunakan adalah pirolisis. Abdullah et al telah melakukan penelitian mengenai pirolisis biomassa menggunakan fixed bed reactor tanpa menggunakan gas penyapu [1]. Penelitian tersebut menyatakan bahwa biomassa berupa kayu kamper dapat memproduksi fraksi produk liquid sebanyak 46%wt, ketika dipirolisis dengan temperatur maksimum 500°C dan dengan pemanasan ulang di bagian zona reaksi hingga 200°C menggunakan heater 1500W. Pirolisis tersebut menggunakan Double Pipe Heat Exchanger sebagai unit Liquid Collection System (LCS). Penelitian ini akan membahas bagaimana karakteristik pengkondensasian uap yang terjadi pada LCS tersebut menggunakan program simulasi COMSOL Multiphysics. Simulasi dalam COMSOL Multiphysics akan menggunakan desain 2D axisymmetric dengan modul simulasi Fluid Flow dan Heat Transfer in Fluid. Uap pirolisis akan dianggap sebagai senyawa tunggal yang merepresentasikan campuran senyawa hidrokarbon yang terkandung di dalam bio-oil sebagaimana dimodelkan oleh Hallet dan Clark [2]. Hasil dari simulasi ini menunjukkan bahwa kondensasi yang terjadi di dalam LCS yang digunakan oleh Abdullah et al terjadi secara konveksi natural dengan aliran laminar. Selain itu, hasil dari simulasi ini juga menunjukkan bahwa sebanyak ~16.93%wt uap pirolisis yang seharusnya bisa dikondensasi pada akhirnrya tidak dapat dikondensasi di Outlet LCS. Agar uap pirolisis dapat terkondensasi seluruhnya, maka harus dilakukan optimasi dengan cara memanjangkan LCS hingga 1.15 m dan menggunakan air pendingin dengan temperatur 8°C

ABSTRACTBiomass is one of the largest energy sources in the world after coal, crude oil, and natural gas. Lately, biomass already used for many purposes, one of which is as a source of liquid smoke, or often called as bio-oil. Bio oil can be produced from various method. One of the most popular method is pyrolysis. Abdullah et al already conducted a research on producing bio-oil from biomass using fixed bed reactor without sweeping gas [1]. The study finds that camphor wood that was used as the feedstock will produce about 46%wt liquid yield during pyrolysis with maximum temperature at 500°C using 1500W heater. In that study, Abdullah et al also reheated the reaction zone until 200°C. The study was using Double Pipe Heat Exchanger as a Liquid Collection System (LCS) unit. This study will focus on the characteristics of condensation phenomenon that happens in that LCS unit using simulation method. This study uses COMSOL Multiphysics as the simulation program. Simulation was conducted using Fluid Flow and Heat Transfer in Fluid Physics. The pyrolysis vapor was considered as a single compound that represents the pyrolysis vapor mixture modeled by Hallet and Clark [2]. The result of this simulation shows that the condensation that occurred inside the LCS that used by Abdullah et al was happened because of natural convection with laminar flow. The result also shows that at the Outlet LCS, ~16.93%wt of the condensable gas was wasted with other Non-Condensable Gases. To achieve fully condensed pyrolysis vapor, the LCS system must be optimized by lengthen the LCS until 1.15 m and using water that have 8°C inlet temperature."

"Platform chemicals as a substrate allow for the formation of high-value products used in many applications, ranging from energy to pharmaceutical industry. Traditionally, these chemicals originated from fossil fuels-based refinery, necessitating a shift towards sustainable and renewable sources. Lignocellulosic biomass, one of the world’s most abundant sources, emerges as a leading alternative. Levoglucosenone (LGO) and 5-Chloromethylfurfural (CMF) are examples of bio-based platform chemicals derived from biomass, offering versatile applications, namely as capsule coating in pharmaceutical industry and as bio-based pesticides. The research focuses on a thermochemical conversion of pre-treated hardwood biomass (Victorian ash) to platform chemicals (LGO and CMF) through a two-step pyrolysis process in a fluidized bed reactor to improve product selectivity. The analysis result indicates successful removal of impurities, such as furfural and anhydrous sugar, during the first stage pyrolysis, allowing for product purification. Optimal conditions for maximum LGO concentration (38.82 mg/mL of bio-oil) were achieved at temperature combinations of 250oC and 300oC. Alternatively, increasing the temperature to 250oC and 350oC proved ideal for both LGO (22.16 mg/ mL) and CMF (14.44 mg/mL) production. The study demonstrates the viability of generating bio-based platform chemicals (LGO and CMF) from pre-treated hardwood biomass through a two-step pyrolysis process, presenting a promising pathway for utilizing sustainable and renewable sources in the production of high-value products.

Bahan kimia dasar sebagai substrat memungkinkan pembentukan produk bernilai tinggi yang dapat digunakan dalam berbagai aplikasi, mulai dari industry energi hingga farmasi. Secara tradisional, bahan kimia ini berasal dari pengolahan bahan bakar fosil, sehingga diperlukannya pergeseran menuju sumber daya berkelanjutan dan terbarukan. Biomassa lignoselulosa, salah satu sumber daya terbanyak di dunia, muncul sebagai alternatif utama. Levoglucosenone (LGO) dan 5-Chloromethylfurfural (CMF) adalah contoh bahan kimia dasar berbasis biomassa yang menawarkan aplikasi serbaguna, seperti pelapis kapsul dalam industri farmasi dan pestisida berbasis biomassa. Penelitian ini berfokus pada konversi termokimia biomassa hardwood (Victorian ash) yang telah melalui pre-treatment menjadi bahan kimia dasar (LGO dan CMF) melalui proses pirolisis dua tahap dalam reactor fluidized bed untuk meningkatkan selektivitas produk. Hasil analisis menunjukkan hilnagnya zat-zat kontaminan, seperti furfural dan gula anhidrat, pada tahap pertama pirolisis, memungkinkan purifikasi produk akhir. Kondisi optimal untuk konsentrasi maksimum LGO (38,82 mg/mL bio-oil) tercapai pada kombinasi suhu 250oC dan 300oC. Sebagai alternatif, peningkatan suhu menjadi 250oC dan 350oC terbukti ideal untuk produksi maksimum LGO (22,16 mg/mL) dan CMF (14,44 mg/mL). Studi ini membuktikan kelayakan dalam penghasilan bahan kimia dasar berbasis biomassa dari hardwood (yang telah melalui proses pre-treatment) dengan proses pirolisis dua tahap. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan jalur yang manjanjikan untuk pemanfaatan sumber daya berkelanjutan dan terbarukan dalam memproduksi produk bernilai tinggi."

"Biomassa merupakan salah satu sumber energi alternatif yang berpotensi untuk dimaksimalkan di Indonesia. Sumber biomassa yang berpotensi salah satunya adalah kelapa sawit yang ketersediaannya melimpah dan limbah tandan kosongnya dapat diolah menjadi bio-oil. Namun produk bio-oil ini biasanya belum memiliki kualitas yang baik umumnya karena kandungan oksigenat yang tinggi sehingga belum bisa diaplikasikan secara luas.Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk menurunkan kadar senyawa oksigenat dalam bio-oil. Penelitian ini memakai temperatur operasi 550oC dengan lima perlakuan berbeda, yaitu tanpa melibatkan katalis, lalu menggunakan katalis ZSM-5 dengan dua ukuran kristal berbeda dan NiZSM-5 dengan dua ukuran kristal yang berbeda. Sintesis katalis ZSM-5 dilakukan dua kali dengan jumlah kadar air yang berbeda untuk mengontrol ukuran kristal yang didapatkan. Sintesis katalis ZSM-5 telah berhasil membentuk kristal alumina silika dengan ukuran partikel 3-5 μm pada sintesis pertama dan 150-250 nm pada sintesis kedua. Sementara impregnasi logam nikel kedalam katalis ZSM-5 dilakukan dengan metode wet impregnation menghasilkan loading logam nikel sebesar 9.88% paa sintesis pertama dan 10.96% pada sintesis kedua.Hasil sintesis bio-oil menunjukkan bahwa katalis mampu mereduksi kandungan senyawa oksigenat dan meningkatkan kandungan senyawa aromatik yang pada proses selanjutnya dapat dikonversi menjadi senyawa alkana atau digunakan sebagai bahan aditif. Secara berurutan, kandungan senyawa oksigenat dan aromatik pada bio-oil tanpa katalis, katalis ZSM-5 sintesis pertama, ZSM-5 sintesis kedua, NiZSM-5 sintesis pertama dan NiZSM-5 sintesis kedua adalah 53,01% dan 44.81%; 38,05% dan 45,02%; 37,57% dan 45,51%; 35,71& dan 48,28%; 35,07% dan 51,23%.

Biomass is one of the alternative energy source that has a great potential to be developed. Biomass can come from many sources and one of the most potential to be utiliized is from empty fruit bunch of palm that can be synthesized to make bio-oil. There were several obstacles that inhibit the use of bio-oil, namely low heating value, high levels of acidity, corrosive, and unstable products. Those problem were due to the high content of oxygenate compounds in the bio-oil.

Purpose of the research is to obtain bio-oil product with less oxygenate compounds. This study uses fast pyrolysis method at 550oC, with five different treatments: production of bio-oil without catalyst, using ZSM-5 with two different crystal size, and using NiZSM-5 with two different crystal size. Synthesis of ZSM-5 has been carried out two times with different water ratio to reduce the crystal size.It has form alumina silica crystal with particle size around 3-5 μm at the first synthesis and 150-250 nm at the second. The impregnation of nickel metal to ZSM-5 has been carried out resulting nickel loading 9.88% at the first synthesis and 10.96% at the second.

The result of bio-oil shows that catalyst can reduce oxygenate compunds as well as increasing aromatic compound that later can be converted into alkane chain hydrocarbon-like petroleum diesel or used as additive compound. Respectively, oxygenates and aromatic content in bio-oil produced without catalyst, with ZSM-5 from first synthesis, with ZSM-5 from second synthesis, with NiZSM-5 from first synthesis dan with NiZSM-5 from second synthesis are 53.01% and 44.81%; 38.05% and 45.02%; 37.57% and 45.51%; 35.71% and 48.28%; and 35.07% and 51.23%."

"Pyrolysis is the thermal degradation of a carbonaceous solid by heat in the absence of oxygen. The feedstocks, such as biomass or solid wastes, are heated to a temperature between 400 and 600°C. The reaction produces three products: gas, pyro-fuel oil, and char. Pyrolyzing solid wastes to make pyro-oil and bio-char provides a renewable, low cost way to produce liquid fuel. The pyro-oil could be mixed with diesel fuel and the fuel properties suitable for a diesel engine generator could be investigated. This work uses a controlled microwave heating technique to pyrolyze used rubber tires into pyro-oil. The thermal treatment of received used rubber tires was done in a modified domestic microwave with a controlled heated stirred bed system. In earlier work, it was found that rubber tires are a poor absorber of microwaves. An appropriate microwave-absorbing material, such as activated char, was added to initiate the pyrolysis process, thus producing pyro-oil. The characteristics of this pyro-oil and the effect of the microwave absorber on the yield of pyro-oil are presented in the paper. Particular attention was paid to the temperature profile during microwave heating of the used rubber tires. The benefit of this application is the conversion of the waste tires into renewable and high calorific pyro-oil. In addition, properties of tire pyrolysis oil have been determined and compared with the results of commercial diesel fuel."

"Peningkatan konsumsi listrik di Indonesia sejak tahun 2010 hingga 2030 mendorong perhatian terhadap pengembangan teknologi konversi termokimia, khususnya gasifikasi, untuk memenuhi kebutuhan energi. Gasifikasi adalah proses utama yang mengubah berbagai bahan baku padat, baik bahan baku fosil maupun sumber energi terbarukan, menjadi gas sintesis (syngas) yang kemudian dimanfaatkan lebih lanjut untuk memproduksi listrik melalui skema IGCC (Integrated Gasification Combined Cycle). Penelitian ini berfokus pada dampak dari variasi penggunaan bahan baku seperti batu bara kualitas rendah yang mewakilkan sumber energi fosil dan beberapa jenis biomassa yang mewakilkan sumber energi terbarukan, meliputi tandan kosong kelapa sawit, sekam padi dan kayu karet yang dipilih karena memiliki potensi tertinggi di Indonesia. Serta penggunaan variasi agen gasifikasi pada proses gasifikasi yaitu oksigen, udara, dan campuran udara dan uap air sehingga menghasilkan syngas. Metode simulasi dengan perangkat lunak Aspen Plus V.12 digunakan untuk mensimulasikan skema IGCC yang terdiri dari beberapa tahap proses, yaitu proses gasifikasi, pembersihan syngas, dan pembangkitan listrik. Masing-masing bahan baku dan agen gasifikasi disimulasikan sehingga didapatkan nilai kalor syngas serta daya listrik keluaran dan daya listrik yang dibutuhkan pada keseluruhan sistem IGCC. Nilai tersebut dievaluasi melalui perhitungan efisiensi cold gas yang meninjau seberapa efisien proses gasifikasi dalam mengubah bahan baku menjadi syngas serta perhitungan efisiensi termal dalam mengevaluasi seberapa efisien bahan baku terkonversi menjadi energi listrik dari keseluruhan proses pembangkit listrik. Data tersebut diolah untuk melihat korelasi karakteristik masing-masing syngas yang dihasilkan terhadap energi listrik yang dihasilkan.

The increase in electricity consumption in Indonesia from 2010 to 2030 has led to a focus on the development of thermochemical conversion technologies, particularly gasification, to meet energy needs. Gasification is the primary process that converts various solid feedstocks, whether fossil or renewable, into synthesis gas (syngas), which is further utilized to produce electricity through the Integrated Gasification Combined Cycle (IGCC) scheme. This study concentrates on the impact of using various feedstock such as low rank coal, representing fossil feedstocks, and several types of biomass including oil palm empty fruit bunches, rice husks, and rubberwood chosen for their high potential in Indonesia. Additionally, it explores the use of various gasification agents—oxygen, air, and air-steam—to produce syngas. Simulation methods utilizing Aspen Plus V.12 software are employed to simulate the IGCC scheme encompassing several process stages: gasification, syngas clean-up, and power generation. Each feedstock and gasification agent are respectively simulated to obtain syngas calorific values, electrical power output, and power required for the entire IGCC system. These values are evaluated through cold gas efficiency calculations, assessing the gasification process efficiency in converting feedstock into syngas, and thermal efficiency calculations to evaluate how efficiently feedstock is converted into electric energy in the overall power generation process. The data is processed to understand the correlation between the characteristics of the resulting syngas and the electric energy produced."

"Bonggol jagung dan plastik polipropilena merupakan sampah yang berlimpah di Indonesia, namun belum didaur ulang dengan maksimal. Bio-oil hasil proses co-pyrolysis biomassa dan plastik dapat dimanfaatkan menjadi salah satu sumber alternatif bio-fuel. Plastik polipropilena, yang memiliki rasio H/C yang tinggi dapat menjadi sumber hidrogen yang baik bagi bio-oil pirolisis biomassa. Dengan melakukan co-pyrolysis pada kedua bahan ini, sebuah efek sinergetik akan terjadi sehingga bio-oil yang dihasilkan akan memiliki kuantitas dan kualitas yang lebih baik. Peningkatan kualitas bio-oil ditandai dengan berkurangnya kadar oksigen akibat pengusiran H. Reaksi berlangsung pada reaktor tangki berpengaduk, dengan kondisi operasi 500oC, laju alir N2 750 mL/menit, holding time 10 menit dan heating rate 5oC/menit. Yield bio-oil non-polar mengalami kenaikan seiring dengan bertambahnya komposisi PP pada umpan. Wax mengalami kenaikan jumlah ikatan jenuh seiring dengan kenaikan komposisi PP akibat terjadinya transfer hidrogen pada proses pirolisis. Proses pirolisis dapat menyebabkan degradasi termal yang menyebabkan produk pirolosis mempunyai berat molekul yang lebih rendah.

Corncob and polypropylene plastics are abundant waste in Indonesia which have not been fully recycled to its fully potential. Co pyrolysis of corncob and plastic can be one of alternative source of bio fuel. Polypropylene plastic, which is high in H C ratio can be a good hydrogen source for pyrolysis oil from biomasss. Co pyrolysing biomass and plastic could lead to synergetic effect which yields higher quantitiy of liquid product. Low oxygenated compound in bio oil is caused by hydrogen resulting in higher quality of bio oil. The reaction occurs in a stirred tank reactor, with operation condition 500oC, N2 flowrate 750 mL min, holding time 10 minutes and heating rate 5oC min. Non oxygenated bio oil yield is significantly increase as polypropylene composition in feed increased. Wax shows raised amount of double bonds as PP composition increase due to hydrogen transfer in pyrolysis. Pyrolysis can cause thermal degradation which leads to lower molecular weight of the products."

"ABSTRAKPada penggunaan stirred tank reaktor dengan rasio Length/Diameter yang rendah, terjadi beberapa masalah dalam transfer panas, karena itu, fasa polar pada hasil pirolisis masih memiliki panjang rantai karbon yang panjang. Dengan mengubah cara feeding dari twice feeding, menjadi gradual feeding, diharapkan dapat meningkatkan jumlah fasa polar pada panjang rantai karbon rendah. Bonggol jagung dipilih sebagai biomassa karena kandungan total selulosanya yang tinggi dan ketersediaannya yang melimpah di Indonesia. Polipropilena adalah jenis plastik yang cukup banyak dihasilkan di Indonesia dan selain itu memiliki ratio Hydrogen/Carbon yang tinggi. Dengan mencampurkan keduanya, sebuah efek sinergetik akan tercipta untuk memperbaiki kuantitas dan kualitas bio-oil yang dihasilkan. Kondisi operasi dengan suhu maksimum sebesar 500oC, laju alir N2 sebesar 0,75 L/menit, holding time 10 menit dan heating rate 5oC/menit digunakan selama eksperimen berlangsung. Dari eksperimen ini terlihat bahwa proses slow co pyrolysis memiliki 2 regime yang dapat terlihat dari jumlah peningkatan yield bio-oil dan peningkatan signifikan pada volume polar. Hasil FTIR dan GC-MS menunjukan adanya fasa polar yang dominan oleh karboksilat dan fenol, pada fasa polar dominan oleh alkena. Untuk digunakan sebagai bio-fuel, bio-oil memiliki nilai TAN total acid number yang rendah pada fasa polar, dan viskositas yang mendekati dengan bahan bakar komersial.

ABSTRACTIn the use of stirred tank reactors with low Length Diameter ratios, there are some problems in heat transfer, therefore, the polar phase on the pyrolysis results still has long carbon chain length. By changing the way feeding of the two step feeds, to gradual feeding, is expected to increase the number of polar phases at low carbon chain lengths. Corncobs are selected as biomass because of their high total cellulose content and abundant availability in Indonesia. Polypropylene is a type of plastic that is widely produced in Indonesia and other than it has a high Hydrogen Carbon ratio. By mixing the two, a synergetic effect will be created to improve the quantity and quality of the resulting bio oil. Operating conditions with a maximum temperature of 500oC, N2 flow rate of 0.75 L min, holding time of 10 min and a heating rate of 5oC min were used during the experiment. From this experiment we can see that the slow co pyrolysis process has 2 regimes that can be seen from the increasing amount of bio oil yield and the significant increase in polar volume. FTIR and GC MS results show the dominant polar phase by carboxylic and phenol, in the polar phase dominant by alkene. For use as bio fuel, bio oil has a low TAN value total acid number in polar phase, and viscosity is close to commercial fuel."
