Abstrak

Untuk memenuhi persyaratan bahan baku pembuatan bahan bakar cair sintetis (synfuel) melalui proses Fischer Tropsch, diperlukan proses gasifikasi batu bara lignit yang menghasilkan gas sintesis dengan rasio H2/CO ≈ 2,0 dan yield gas yang tinggi. Metode gasifikasi kukus dapat meningkatkan komposisi H2 dalam gas sintesis. Energi aktivasi reaksi gasifikasi dapat diturunkan dengan menggunakan katalis K2CO3. Laju pemanasan terkontrol pada tahap pirolisis menentukan ukuran pori arang yang berpengaruh pada komposisi dan yield gas sintesis. Penelitian ini dilakukan dengan mengumpankan arang batu bara lignit hasil pirolisis dengan laju pemanasan terkontrol yang memiliki luas permukaan pori 172,5 m2/g bersama dengan katalis K2CO3 ke dalam reaktor unggun tetap. Rasio massa kukus/arang yang ditambahkan bervariasi 2,0; 3,0; 4,0 dan suhu gasifikasi 675, 750, 825°C. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa kondisi reaksi gasifikasi yang sesuai untuk produksi gas sintesis bahan baku proses Fischer Tropsch adalah reaksi gasifikasi berkatalis K2CO3 pada suhu 675°C dan rasio massa kukus/arang 2,0. Kondisi ini menghasilkan gas sintesis dengan rasio H2/CO 2,07 dengan yield gas 1,128 mol/mol C (45% konversi karbon).
