Conversion of rice husk into energy using gasification method produces gas producer. Producer
gas impervious gas contains fuel in the form of carbon monoxide (CO), hydrogen (H2), and
methane (CH4) through the air supply is limited (Basu, 2010). Producer gas derived from rice
husk gasification process has a value lower heating value (LHV) is low, which is about 4.44
MJ/Nm3 (Zhongqiag Ma et al, 2015). One of the utilization of the gas producer to become
energy is to be done in a burner combustion. Delaying the process of mixing is the process of
doing delay input mixing with fuel and air so it can happen that a homogeneous mixture and

 CHAPTER 1
INTRODUCTION

1.1 Backgroud
Indonesia has various potential energy reserves available throughout the country. Even
though the reserves are not very plentiful, there are several actions that are necessary to be
done, so that the reserves can still be riped for the upcoming generation, not exploited by
the generation that is living in present day. The long term national energy issue is involving
security of supply and the continuity of energy provision, which are very important to
support the nation’s development and to fulfill the need of Indonesia’s society. Long term
energy provision has several considerations, such as the environment, economics, and
social aspects. The practice of advanced technology requires sufficient education and
information in order to be accepted as a culture of a society that never been interacted with
renewable energy as well as its beneficial usage for social humanity [2 ,3 ,4]. According
to the road map (RIP UI 2013), long term plan of the research, competition map and
available market, self-evaluation and giving attention to the 10 columns of research’s
success, the research’s domain which established in University of Indonesia, there will be
chosen 10 of the most prominent research topic in University of Indonesia, one of them is
the ENERGY topic [5].
In relation to that matter and also regarding the global energy consumption which is going
through an escalation concomitant to the increase of industrialization and life standards,
so that nearly 80% of world’s energy consumption is from fossil fuels that is harmful to
the environment and health which correspond to the increase of CO2, NOx, and SO2
emmision. After the fossil fuel, biomass is the 4th largest energy resource in the world. It
supplies 11-12% primary energy consumption. In the developing countries, biomass is the
main energy resource in sum of 38% of the total primary energy consumption. The number
is even higher in the rural areas, which is 90% of the total energy supply. With the
prediction of 90% of the world’s population is going to live in developing areas in 2050,
biomass will still be a substantial energy reserve [6, 7, 8].
Indonesia is not missed from the grasp of the energy issue, mainly in electricity supply. As
a matter of fact, electrical energy in Indonesia is entering the emergency phase [9].
Furthermore, the issue of the limited distribution of electricity in Indonesia, where more
or less, 40% of the rural areas that hasn’t been electrified, is the reason behind the
requirement of an energy and alternative technology to solve the problem [10].
Biomass has high and varied water content. It’s constituents are; carbon, hydrogen,
oxygen, nitrogen, sulphur, and other inorganic elements. Compared to fossil fuel, biomass
has lower carbon content, higher oxygen, and lower heating value that ranges between 12-
16 MJ/kg [11, 12]. Chemical energy from biomass can be compressed in the form of more
usable with the biochemical method, chemical and thermochemical [13, 14]. Only certain
biomasses are able to be converted into biogas, ethanol, biodiesel with the methods of
biochemical and chemical. Besides the two methods mentioned before, the
thermochemical method is more favorable because of its ability to convert more kind of
biomass. Amongst other thermochemical conversions, gasification drew more attention
because it offers higher conversion efficiency than direct combustion. On medium to small
scale lower than 10 MWe, the application of biomass gasification for gas engine and gas
turbine yields higher efficiency to produce electricity compared to the vapor systems that
use biomass fuel in a boiler [15].. The amount of farm waste in Indonesia is 29.095.489
ton/year and the largest potential farm waste is rice husk (21.114.074 ton/year). This is
equivalent to 13,662 MWe energy reserve with the capacity attached to the powerplant
that connects to the grid is 75,5 MWe [16].
Rice husk, one of biomass’s type, is a waste from the milling process of rice. Rice husk is
nearly uniform in shape and sizes, and is capable to be processed again. But, sekam padi
has a stiff structure and is not very suitable for fermentation, because of the high lignin
and silica (SiO2) content [17]. Rice Husk also has low energy density and high ash content.
Because of the high Silica content (reaching 95% of rice husk’s element which turned into
ash because of combustion), hence it is used for zeolite making, ceramics, silicon for solar
cell, and other catalyst materials [18].
Conversion of rice husk into energy using gasification method produces gas producer.
Producer gas impervious gas contains fuel in the form of carbon monoxide (CO), hydrogen
(H2), and methane (CH4) through the air supply is limited [19]. Producer gas derived from
rice husk gasification process has a value lower heating value (LHV) is low, which is about
4.44 MJ/Nm3 [20]. One of the utilization of the gas producer to become energy is to be
done in a burner combustion. Using combustion burner depends on the quality of the
burned gas producer. With a low LHV, it takes burner is capable of burning low-quality
gas producer. Of some kind that has been developed by Biomass Gasification Research
Group, Laboratory of Thermodynamics, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Faculty
of Engineering, University of Indonesia, the type of cyclone burner be the most ideal
 option. This is because the method of accelerating the flow to generate turbulence, the
flame obtained turbulent flame and capable of producing high combustion LHV.
Various studies conducted by researchers have gained a wide range of optimization for the
combustion process in a cyclone burner. As performed by P.R. Bhoi, et al [21] who did
the addition of bluff body and the swirl vane axial found that the maximum temperature
occurs in the water to fuel ratio (AFR) 1. While the swirl vane is obtained at an angle of
60 ° maximum. Then Hao Zhou, et al [22] did experiment to determine the effect of particle
flow towards the formation of high temperature on the burner, it was found that the
recirculation process occurs at the primary and secondary air flow are weak, so it affects
the flow of particles swirling process. S.A. Channiwala, et al [23] conducted a study to
perform optimization in a premixed combustion burner gas producer, it was found that the
swirling vane assist in the mixing of air and gas producer, while the bluff body is used to
stabilize the flame. Dong-Fang Zhao, et al [24] also conducted research on premixed
cylindrical burner to produce low emissions of pollutants. In that study to obtain a mixture
of fuel and air are good dangat depending on the distance of the air ejector output that is 3
mm from the output ejector nozzle to output. In the burner with the type of high velocity
burner studied by researchers (cyclone burner) obtained a new characteristic according to
a study by Charles E. Baukal [25] that the mixing Delaying the process will determine the
outcome of the internal combustion burner. Delaying the process of mixing is the process
of doing delay input mixing with fuel and air so it can happen that a homogeneous mixture
and the desired mix according to 3T of Good Combustion: Time, Temperature, and
Turbulence. It can also produce a turbulent jet that occurs in almost all internal combustion
burner. Therefore it was decided to conduct research in the process of mixing Delaying
supported by the fact that the gas producer has LHV is small, thus requiring an efficient
and optimal combustion process.

1.2 Problems
In connection with the effort to get power combustion and optimal performance in the
cyclone gas burner, then there are problems as follows:
a) From the literature and experiments to study proposed, have been found variations in
the position of the air intake and fuel. But still very difficult to find a correlation intake
position (fuel and air) to optimize combustion power.
 b) In this study a very important determining flow rates of air and fuel into the cyclone
gas burner, because the ratio of fuel and air greatly influences the combustion process
in a cyclone burner gas.
c) The role of the position of the air intake and intake flow rate (fuel and air) strongly
affect mixing Delaying very important in regulating the combustion and optimizing the
combustion products.
d) Distribution of temperatures on cyclone burner gas is closely related to the process of
burning gas producer. This temperature distribution can be a parameter in regulating
the flow rate of air and gas producer to optimize the combustion process and delaying
mixing.
1.3 Research Goals

air) to optimize the combustion of producer gas.
b) Getting the positional relationship and the intake flow rate (fuel and air) to power

the environment.
b) The results of this study contribute to the further research in the field of biomass
gasification related to renewable energy.

a) Cyclone gas burner which can perform with optimal combustion process and produce
high combustion power.
b) Cyclone gas burner which can perform mixing Delaying the process to obtain the
correlation position and the intake flow rate (fuel and air) are optimal.

LITERATURE REVIEW

2.1 State of The Art

Flame (flame) are the result of reflection (ignition). Source reflectance of solid objects can
be hot, hot gas which is injected into the mixture of the reactants, or electric plugs
(electrical spark). After ignition, propagate the reaction zone (propagation) through a
mixture of the reactants and will eventually arise face flame (flame front). If the mixture
of reactants undergo prior heating, pressure, and temperature will rise to exceed the
temperature of the flame that will light up (self-ignition) without ignition.
Based on the initial mixing process oxidizer and fuel, the flame can be categorized as
premixed or non-premixed. In the premixed flame, thoroughly mixed reactant to the
molecular level. In the non-premixed flame or a diffusion, propagation is controlled by the
speed at which the reactants diffuse each other. Premixed flame is rarely used because of
security problems. While the non-premixed flame is widely used in industries and gas
turbines for security reasons because of the fuel and oxidizer separately, and more flexible.
In terms of safety in the industry, such separation is made on consideration of the danger
of fire and explosion [15].

Figure 2.1 Flame condition [15]

a) Diffusion Flame. b) Premixed Flame

A process where mixing of fuel and oxidizer combustion takes place separately and
simultaneously with the so-called burning combustion without initial mixing (non-
premixed). Non premixed mixing method is more advantageous because of the safety
factor along with the fuel and oxidizer are kept separate, as well as the ease in controlling
 the flame which is more flexible in the control of flame length and shape, as well as
combustion intensity [14].
Non-premixed flame is also called a diffusion flame. Fuel and oxidizer met separately into
the combustion chamber and the rate of combustion is very dependent on the rate of
diffusion of the reactants. Propagation or propagation combustion reactant molecules is
controlled by the rate at which the reactant diffuses each other.
Burner is a combustion system components which serve to mix the fuel and oxidizer
(usually air) which are combined to form the flame burning. Gas burners on gasification
systems have an important influence on the optimization of the use of the gas produced
from gasification. The function of the gasification process are:
• Mixing gasification gas (producer gas) with air (oxidizer).
• Determine the characteristics of the resulting fire in the combustion chamber.
• Conduct the ignition in the gasifier system.
Gas burner main function is to burn the gasification gas to then ignited into a flame burning
used for other special purposes. Giulio Solero (based on research by Chen, RH and
Claypole TC and Syred N) states that the vortex flow without mixing the initial (non-
premixed) are widely used in industries which use combustion system, especially gas
turbines, boiller-boiller and burning stoves / fireplaces because of security reasons and
stability. Vortex increases the mixing of fuel and air, improve the stability of the flame
(flame stabilization) and has a strong influence on the characteristics of the tongue / flame
(flame characteristics) and emissions of pollutant (pollutan-emission). The gas burner is
studied cyclone gas burner with a swirl vane and the bluff body. The gas burner is a high
velocity burner category that has the characteristics delaying mixing.

2.3 Initial Study

Gasification process using biomass gasifier (rice husk) that has a problem on the amount
of waste generated tar that cause environmental problems as well as the lack of
applications on this type of gasifier. To solve these problems, this research proposed
reduction in the gasifier with tar method of pyrolysis gas recirculation into the combustion
area and exit gas (producer gas) from the reduction zone. Then use the gas producer for a
variety of applications requiring a gas burner system that can generate high heat and low
pollution. In this study assessed a modified model of a gas burner, which is done with CFD
and experimental approaches to determine the phenomenon of mixing air and gas
producer. Shape nozzle, nozzle position, angle of the driver, and the dimensions of the
burner modeled and simulated in CFD to determine its characteristics. CFD results are
used to construct a gas burner prototype experiment are tested by varying the speed of
incoming gas producer, airspeed, and the position of the nozzle. Then the utilization of the
gas producer for a variety of applications requiring a gas burner system that can generate
high heat and low pollution and low power requirements (less than 180 W). Utilization of
biomass gasification gas producer for a variety of applications requiring a gas burner
system that can generate high heat and low pollution. In this study assessed a modified
 model of a gas burner, which is done with CFD approach and experiment. Ijektor
combined with the burner system as premixe combustion air supply. Ijektor and
dimensions of burner optimized with CFD simulations. CFD results used to build a
prototype, the prototype test results showed an increase in average temperature of 193.7
for fuel and 198.9 coconut shells for rice husk.
At the preliminary study dipercobakan various water to fuel ratio between the producer
gas and the air to obtain the optimum flame. While the performance of the gas burner has
not been studied further, which is in the process of mixing air and gas producer, because
the cyclone gas burner has the characteristics Delaying the phenomenon of mixing.
Delaying this mixing characteristics determine the performance of cyclone gas burner, so
it's very interesting to do research. In addition to the preliminary study conducted at the
Laboratory Joint Research Group Biomass Gasification and PT Sarandi Karya Nugraha,
obtained a flame phenomena that can be set by adjusting the mixing Delaying, but still are
approximate. Therefore, more research is needed on the characteristics Delaying this
mixing.
