Abstract

Many coastal communities have not yet developed the potential for processing coconut shell waste and wood cutting industry waste. Making appropriate technology that can provide solutions to problem-solving while utilizing the local potential of the region is a breakthrough that can build the people’s economy. The design and development of appropriate technology made in this study is a kiln maker of charcoal and wood vinegar that will be very useful and simple and easy to move. The purpose of this research is the development of a design of appropriate technology for the manufacture of charcoal and wood vinegar which is economical. Test kiln performed using performance testing parameters on each unit used are the operating capacity of the tool, the temperature of combustion that occurs, the time of the final product manufacturing process, the yield of combustion materials, the resulting quality and the calculation of the cost of production. The results show that the tools built have shown the performance of charcoal and liquid smoke makers which are good for application in rural communities. This kiln tool can operate as a charcoal maker or liquid smoke maker or both. In the making of charcoal (without the process of liquid smoke) obtained the optimal charcoal capacity at 10 kg of small size shell, the combustion temperature runs 150 oC with a time of 2 hours and a yield of 24.5%. Making liquid smoke (without making charcoal) shows the capacity of fumigation material (shell) using 20 kg, the combustion temperature runs 120 oC with a time of 6 hours and a yield of 5.5% or 1.1 liters. Whereas to get the combustion at the same time the liquid smoke obtained the results of the charcoal capacity to produce more than 10 kg of small size shell, the combustion temperature runs 120 oC with 2.5 hours with the yield of charcoal and liquid smoke yield of 10.5% and 1.2%. The results of the analysis of the cost of production with the use of raw materials including coconut shell 10 kg for making charcoal and liquid smoke are Rp. 2.72 / g, and Rp. 5.65 / ml.
