Abstract:To reduce fossil fuel usage and promote eco-friendly energy, PT Semen Padang uses Alternative Fuels (AF) instead of coal. This study focuses on projecting the use of solid waste as AF from 2023-2030. It compares the waste's calorific value and proximate analysis with standards, calculates its potential use based on the Thermal Substitution Rate (TSR), and plans the necessary equipment. The tested waste includes Spent Bleaching Earth (SBE), rice husk, calliandra, palm fiber, and sawdust. The AF's characterizati… Show more
