Abstract

The increasing population growth of a country causes an increase in energy consumption, high energy consumption also has an impact on environmental conditions. Greenhouse gases (GHG) are problems that arise with the use of conventional energy. In 2030 Indonesia will reduce GHG by 29%. Efforts are being made for this by diversifying energy resources, namely reducing the use of conventional energy and implementing new renewable energy. Syngas is a type of renewable energy obtained from the conversion process of solid fuels such as coal and biomass with gasification technology which can be used as a renewable energy resource. The gasification process is carried out with a set of downdraft type gasifier prototypes in the Sriwijaya State Polytechnic energy engineering laboratory for study parameters on the quality of syngas from the coal gasification process based on the calorific value and biomass of bagasse. From research it is known that the calorific value of coal and the type of raw material influence the composition of syngas, the composition of CO in syngas is directly proportional to the calorific value of coal and bagasse where bagasse with a calorific value of 2,651 cal/gr has the lowest CO composition, namely 8.91% while Coal C with a calorific value of 5,191 cal/gr has the highest CO composition, namely 19.56%. The same is true for the CO composition, the composition of H2, CH4 is also directly proportional to the calorific value of coal and bagasse.
