“…Currently, the fuel that is widely used in industry is mostly sourced from charcoal. (Syafrudin et al, 2015) Briquettes are an alternative fuel in solid form that can be obtained on a large scale in a relatively short time and inexpensive (Ibrahim et al, 2020). Briquettes are environmentally friendly as they are biodegradable.…”

One of the fuels made from biomass are Charcoal briquettes. The biomass used in this study was coffee husk and coffee wood. This study aims to find out the ratio of coffee husk and coffee wood that accordance the briquette standards of the Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources (ESDM) and (Indonesian Nasional Standard) SNI 01-6235-2000. In this research, a comparison was made between coffee fruit skin charcoal and coffee wood charcoal with a ratio of 100:0 (KK 1 ), 75:25 (KK 2 ), 50:50 (KK 3 ), 25:75 (KK 4 ), 0:100 (KK 5 ). The resulting briquettes were tested for their proximate value using a furnace, for the calorific value they were tested using a boom calorimeter. Apart from that, a combustion rate test was also carried out by burning briquettes in a combustion furnace. The results of the analysis of proximate obtained were water content of the briquettes ranging from 3.39-5.91%, all of which in accordance with SNI and also which in accordance with the regulation of ESDM, the ash content that which in accordance with SNI was KK 4 and KK 5 , namely 6.71% respectively. and 6.47% and those that comply with the ESDM Ministerial Regulation are KK 3 , KK 4 and KK 5 with ash content values of 9.62%, 6.71% and 6.47% respectively. Meanwhile, the volatile matter value ranges from 32. 31-35.59%, not yet accordance with SNI. for fixed carbon values ranging from 50.1-54.55%, this also does not accordance with SNI. However, for the calorific value of 4536-6723 Cal/g, all of them meet the ESDM Ministerial Regulation, and those that accordance with SNI is KK 2 , KK 3 , KK 4 and KK 5 with calorific values of 5650, 5821, 5866 and 6723 Cal/g respectively. Meanwhile, the combustion rate ranges from 0.341 to 0.711 g/min. Coffee husk waste combined with coffee wood has the potential to be used as fuel briquettes where the KK 4 composition has water content, ash content and calorific value that meets SNI and ESDM regulations, even though the volatile matter and fixed carbon values do not yet meet.

“…The organic waste is processed into briquettes so that the agricultural sector becomes strategic in meeting the needs of industry and society [6]. Energy derived from biomass briquettes can be an alternative energy source to replace fossil fuels (petroleum) because of its many advantages [7]. Organic waste can be used sustainably because it is renewable and relatively free of sulfur, does not cause air pollution, and can increase the use of forest and agricultural resources [8].…”

Indonesia needs new renewable energy as an alternative to fuel oil. The existence of organic waste is an opportunity to replace oil because it is renewable and contains relatively less air-polluting sulfur. Previous research that has been widely carried out still utilizes coconut shell raw materials, which are increasingly limited in number, so other alternative raw materials are needed. A model is needed to make a formulation that can optimize the composition of organic waste raw materials as a basic ingredient for making briquettes. The research objective was to determine the best raw material composition based on digital image analysis in processing organic waste into briquettes. An artificial intelligence approach with a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) architecture can predict an effective object detection model. The image analysis results have shown an effective model in the raw material composition of 60% coconut, 20% wood, and 20% adhesive to produce quality biomass briquettes. Briquettes with a higher percentage of coconut will perform better in composition tests than mixed briquettes. The energy obtained from burning briquettes is useful for meeting household fuel needs and meeting micro, small, and medium business industries.

Nigeria has the potential to generate 12,522 MW of electricity, but can only dispatch 4000 MW, which is insufficient for a population of over 200 million people as of 2022. Therefore, Nigerians use solid fuels including firewood and charcoal as an alternative to insufficient electricity for domestic use. The consumption of firewood and charcoal in Nigeria is estimated at 23,745,458 tons and 4,828,689 tons, respectively in 2021, by far the most consumed domestic solid fuel sources in Nigeria. Although there are domestic solid fuel alternatives, such as dung, agricultural residues and coal, to firewood and wood charcoal, their sustainable adoption has been slow in Nigeria, indicating that there is insufficient knowledge of domestic solid fuel sources. This requires a review focused on assessing Nigeria’s national sources of solid fuels. This article presents an overview of the sources of domestic solid fuels in Nigeria, an exploration of different types of firewood and charcoal studies, the impact of solid fuels on climate change and the environment, health risks associated with solid fuel and biomass briquettes and pellets as domestic solid fuel alternatives to charcoal and firewood. The continued production and use of firewood and wood charcoal as domestic solid fuel sources encourage deforestation, desertification and greenhouse gas emission, which in turn pose a threat to a sustainable environment and good health. It is necessary to limit the felling of trees for firewood and charcoal production to curtail their negative impacts on the health of users and the environment. This review covered the thermal, mechanical and physical properties of briquette and pellet fuels as substitutions for firewood and charcoal. It was shown that employing briquettes and pellets as a source of solid fuel in the home will lessen the negative impacts that these fuels have on users’ health, the climate and the environment.
