Charcoal Briquette Production Process from Industrial Waste Charcoal

Abstract

The objective of this research is to study physical properties heat temperature value Density and the burning time of charcoal briquettes from a large amount of leftover mixed charcoal from the shrimp drying industry in Don Sak District Surat Thani Province. The experiment found that the optimum heating temperature of charcoal briquettes The average is 556.5 degrees Celsius by measuring with an infrared thermometer measuring 10 centimeters from the object From the surface and density analysis of charcoal briquettes It has a dense surface and is slightly porous that is invisible to the naked eye He viewed with a surface scanning electron microscope at a magnification of 200 microns It has an average surface density of 37.32 nm. of the mixing ratio of 500 ml of hot water Tapioca Starch 25 g. Powdered charcoal of 500 g. and a maximum burning time of 145 minutes. Therefore the researcher is of the opinion that charcoal briquettes can be used in various household.
