Analysis of Mixture Paste of Cassava Peel and Pineapple Peel as Electrolytes in Bio Battery

Abstract

This study investigated the effect of the ratio of the electrolyte paste mixture of cassava peel (CP) and pineapple peel (PP) on the voltage and current strength. In the experiments, prior to using, CP and PP biomass waste was cleaned then soaked for 30 minutes. Furthermore, the biomass waste is mashed and put into the test media according to the comparison. In this study, CP/PP compositions were varied with the value of 100: 0, 75:25, 50:50, 25:75, and 0: 100. The results showed that the highest electrolyte obtained by voltage and current strength with a ratio of 100: 0. The more CP comparisons used, the greater the voltage and strong current. This research is potentially used as one of the renewable alternative energies and can utilize existing biomass waste.This study investigated the effect of the ratio of the electrolyte paste mixture of cassava peel (CP) and pineapple peel (PP) on the voltage and current strength.

Peningkatan Kinerja Bio-Baterai Nanas Dengan Penambahan Pasta Aki Bekas dan Natrium Benzoat

“…Banyaknya jumlah ion menyebabkan konduktivitas larutan elektrolit semakin tinggi, konduktivitas listrik larutan dipengaruhi oleh jumlah ion dan mobilitas ion [4]. Penelitian tentang buah dan sayuran yang berpotensi sebagai sumber energi telah dilakukan diantaranya dari kulit jambu dan kulit nanas [5], tomat busuk dan ampas kelapa [6], jeruk [7], campuran nanas [8], tomat dan jeruk [9], kulit jeruk dan asam jawa [10] dan biomassa sayuran [11]. Buah-buahan tersebut mengandung zat seperti asam aksorbat, asam sitrat dan NADH (Nicotinamide Adenosine Dinucleotide Hydrogen) menghasilkan sel energi yang bertindak sebagai elektrolit bio-baterai [12].…”

Performance Enhancement of Biobattery from Tropical Almond Paste Using Acetic Acid Addition

“…Orange peels which are rich in citric acid content produced an open cell voltage of 1.4 V, while the combination of tamarind and orange peels increased the voltage up to 1.7 V [11] . Furthermore, cassava peels are also commonly used as biobattery materials due to the acidic compounds such as acetic acid (CH3COOH) and cyanide acid (HCN), as well as pineapple peels which contain citric acid (C6H8O7) [12] . The new proposed local Papuan betel nuts were used as a potential electrolyte and produced a voltage of 0.98 V, with current density and power density performance of about 6.67 μW.cm -2 and 48 μA.cm -2 , respectively [13] .…”
