ZULVI ARWAN FAKIH: Effect of Density of Air LineandHeight of Used Cooking Oil on Burning Quality of Oil Palm Soil Waste Biobriquettes, supervisedby SAIPUL BAHRI DAULAY andSUMONO. Palm oil millsolid wasteresultingfromCPOproductionprocessis channeledinto pondwaste(Cooling PondI).It isusuallythrowntothe groundso that it cancontaminate the environment.This study was aimtoutilize theoil palmwasteasbriquettes. Briquettesis one of thealternative to replaceoil. Research wasdone bycompletely randomizedfactorialdesign with2factors i.e :density of air line(0,4, 0,8, and 1,2cm) andHeight of used cooking oil (2, 2,5, and 3 cm). Parametersobserved were heating time, oilvolume, andsootness. The results showedthat the density of air linehada highly significant effectonthe heating time, volume of oilandhad noeffectonthe sootnes. Height of used cooking oil had a significant effectonsootness andhad no effectonthe heating time and volumeof oil. The best treatment combination was L1T2 (0,4centimetersdensity of air line and 2,5 centimetersHeight of used cooking oil) with equipment heatimg time of 43,90 minute and 1,79 gr sootness.
