Abstract

The coconut husk is the outermost part of the coconut fruit that covers the coconut shell whereas one coconut contains 35% husk. In several areas, including in North Sulawesi, a lot of coconut husk is still being thrown away or left in the garden. Coconut husk has a potentially utilized energy capacity. For this reason, the idea arose to make a stove for energy utilization from coconut husk waste with a gasification system. The purpose of this study was to design and technically test a household-scale coconut husk stove with a gasification system. The research method was carried out by design and experimental testing, then the resulting data were analyzed descriptively. In this study, two types of stoves were designed and manufactured which were practical for application on a household scale using a gasification system made from coconut coir. The first stove that uses an air blower can reach a temperature of 740 ℃ and is tested with 1.5 liters of water, so the water can boil for 9 minutes. The second stove, which does not use an air blower, can boil 1.5 liters of water for 11 minutes at a temperature of 608℃. Both stoves have a waiting time to produce gas that is not much different, which is about 3 minutes with an initial fuel mass of 300 g. The results of economic calculations show that the cost of making this stove is relatively cheap and easy to maintain. However, the raw material for coconut coir runs out quickly and requires several replenishments of raw materials. Keywords: Stove, household scale, gasification, coconut husk. Abstrak Sabut kelapa merupakan bagian terluar buah kelapa yang membungkus tempurung kelapa dimana dalam satu butir buah kelapa mengandung 35% sabut. Di beberapa daerah termasuk di Sulawesi Utara, sabut kelapa masih banyak yang dibuang atau dibiarkan saja di kebun. Sabut kelapa mempunyai kapasitas energi yang potensial dimanfaatkan. Untuk itulah timbul ide untuk membuat kompor sebagai pengganti kompor untuk pemanfaatan energi dari limbah sabut kelapa ini dengan sistem gasifikasi. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah membuat rancangan dan uji teknis kompor sabut kelapa skala rumah tangga dengan sistem gasifikasi. Metode penelitian dilakukan dengan pembuatan dan uji  teknis alat secara eksperimental, kemudian data yang dihasilkan di analisis secara deskriptif.  Dalam penelitian ini di buat dua tipe kompor yang diharapkan dapat diaplikasikan pada skala rumah tangga dengan menggunakan sistem gasifikasi berbahan baku sabut kelapa. Kompor yang pertama yang menggunakan penghembus udara dapat mencapai suhu 740℃ dan uji coba dengan air 1,5 liter, maka air tersebut dapat mendidih selama 9 menit. Kompor yang kedua, yang tidak menggunakan penghembus udara dapat mendidihkan air 1,5 liter selama 11 menit dengan suhu mencapai 608℃. Kedua kompor mempunyai waktu tunggu untuk menghasilkan gas tidak berbeda jauh, yaitu sekitar 3 menit dengan massa bahan bakar awal 300 g. Hasil perhitungan ekonomi menunjukkan bahwa biaya pembuatan kompor ini relatif murah dan mudah pemeliharaannya. Akan tetapi bahan baku sabut kelapa cepat habis dan memerlukan beberapa kali pengisian bahan bahan baku.  Kata Kunci: Kompor, skala rumah tangga, gasifikasi, sabut kelapa.

Abstract

Pakcoy vegetables after harvest will change in quality, so it is necessary to handle post-harvest. The pre-cooling method is one of the methods that can be done to prevent these quality changes, the goal is to extend the shelf life of pakcoy. The quality of pakcoy is influenced by environmental conditions during storage. Suitable packaging can prevent the rate of respiration. Respiration can cause a deterioration in the quality of the pakcoy, so before storage it needs to be packaged. This study aims to determine the duration of pakcoy storage packaged with LDPE plastic clips based on changes in weight, moisture content, color, and texture during cold storage in 2 (two) pre-cooling methods, namely room cooling and hydro cooling and comparing the quality of pakcoy carried out pre-cooling with room cooling and hydro cooling methods. This study used experimental methods with pre-cooling treatment, namely room cooling and hydro cooling, data collection was carried out as many as 3 samples per treatment. The data is presented in tables and graphs and then analyzed descriptively. The results showed that pakcoy using the hydro cooling method can be stored for 22 days while using the room cooling method can be stored for 18 days. Pakcoy quality is obtained better in hydro cooling treatment. Keywords: Pakcoy vegetables;  post-harvest;  respiration; Abstrak Sayuran pakcoy setelah panen akan terjadi perubahan mutu, sehingga perlu adanya penanganan pascapanen. Metode pra pendinginan adalah salah satu metode yang dapat dilakukan untuk mencegah perubahan mutu tersebut, tujuannya adalah memperpanjang masa simpan pakcoy. Mutu pakcoy dipengaruhi oleh kondisi lingkungan selama   penyimpanan.  Pengemasan yang sesuai dapat mencegah laju respirasi. Respirasi dapat menyebabkan kemunduran mutu pada pakcoy, sehingga sebelum melakukan penyimpanan perlu dikemas. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menentukan lama penyimpanan pakcoy yang dikemas dengan plastik klip LDPE berdasarkan perubahan bobot, kadar air, warna dan tekstur selama penyimpanan dingin pada 2 (dua) metode pra pendinginan yaitu room cooling dan hydro cooling serta membandingkan mutu pakcoy yang dilakukan pra pendinginan dengan metode room cooling dan hydro cooling. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode eksperimen dengan perlakuan pra pendinginan yaitu room cooling dan hydro cooling, pengambilan data dilakukan sebanyak 3 sampel setiap perlakuan. Data disajikan dalam tabel dan grafik kemudian dianalisis secara deskriptif. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pakcoy menggunakan metode hydro cooling dapat disimpan selama 22 hari  sedangkan  dengan menggunakan metode room cooling dapat disimpan selama 18 hari. Diperoleh mutu pakcoy lebih baik pada perlakuan hydro cooling. Kata Kunci: Sayuran pakcoy;  pascapanen; Respirasi;
