Abstract

Nowadays, the development of energy generation obtained from biomass materials have increase the wastage production. The increase in extraction of oil from biomass have produced million tons of waste every year. Due this problem, some research have been made to manage biomass waste to utilize them for fertilizer and also can be alternative fuel in the form of solid biofuel for domestic combustion. Furthermore, today world more demand into safe and clean renewable energy for daily usage biofuel from biomass material is one of renewable energy that sustainable and eco-friendly. Jatropha curcas biofuel is one of biomass product can be utilize it oil and also waste cake. The extraction of Jatropha oil produced waste which also known as cake. The utilization of Jatropha waste cake for solid biofuel reduce the waste disposal and eco-friendly energy generation. The purpose of this research was to study the feasibility of Jatropha waste cake as solid biofuel in form of pellet. The energetic properties of Jatropha pellet produced was tested through calorific values, moisture content and ash content. From the result, the utilization of Jatropha waste cake have high potential for solid biofuel as an alternative energy generation.
