Penggunaan NI/NZA Sebagai Katalis Pada Proses Hidrodeoksigenasi Pirolisis Kulit Pinus (Pinus Merkussi Menjadi Bio-Oil

Abstract

Dependence on fossil fuels as an energy source brings us to the energy crisis. Therefore, it is necessary to reduce human dependence on non-renewable energy. One of them is to produce bio-oil from biomass are processed through hydrodeoxygenation pyrolysis technology. One type of biomass that can be used as raw material, namely energy sources pine bark which is a waste of the pine trees. This research aims to produce bio-oil from the bark of pine (pine merkussi) as an alternative fuel, studied the effect of the weight ratio of the catalyst Ni / NZA against biomass, studied the effect of impregnated metal Nickel (Ni) in Natural Zeolite deAluminated (NZA) and characterization of physical properties and the chemistry of the bio-oil is produced. Hydrodeoxygenation pyrolysis process is carried out at a temperature of 320 0C, silinap 500 ml, biomass 50 grams with a size of -100 + 200 mesh sieve, catalyst variation Ni / NZA of the biomass of 4%; 6% and 8% by weight and Ni metal impregnation variation of the Natural Zeolite deAluminated (NZA) of 0%; 1%; 2% and 3%. Results of this study produce bio-oil yields the largest on the use of the catalyst Ni / NZA 8% by weight of the metal content of 3% by 70.99%. Characterization of physical properties of bio-oil obtained in the form of density of 0.980 g / ml, 1,590 cSt viscosity, acidity 32.444 mg NaOH / gram sample, a flash point of 40 0C and calorific value of 44.509 MJ / kg. While the characterization of the chemical properties of bio-oil using Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectroscopy (GCMS) in the can several dominant chemical components such as acetic acid as much as 34.47%, 3-furaldehyde as much as 13.01%, 2-propanone as much as 12.46%, a 1.2-Ethanediol as much as 9:49% and 2-butanone as much as 6.26%.
