POTENSI TUMBUHAN PIONIR UNTUK WOOD PELLET SEBAGAI BIOENERGI TERBARUKAN

The increasing demand for energy in Indonesia is due to the need or number of Indonesian population which has increased and inversely proportional availability production existing energy. One best solutions that can be done promote use pioneer wood (fast growing plant) as an source by processing into pellets. method used a survey looking place grow several types plants. purpose this study was determine quality pellets potential plants tested environmentally friendly, sustainable renewable bioenergy. pioneers were Acacia mangium, Jatropha curcas, Macaranga tanarius, Swietenia mahagoni, Leucaena leucocephala, Sesbania grandiflora. Wood Pellets from seen density ranging 0.433 gr / cm3 0.503 cm3, moisture content 5.55% - 12.4%, ash 1.95-6.2%, calorific value powder 3657.67% 4178.18%. Of tested, most leucocephala because it had met SNI 8021 2014 highest required.
