TI - The Effect of red clay as an alternative binder in charcoal briquette PY - 2024/// CY - City of Batac PB - MMSU, N1 - UTHESIS (Bachelor of Science in Ceramic Engineering); Bibliography : leaves 45-49 N2 - Incorporating carbonized coconut shell (CCS) and red clay to determine the effect of red clay in its physical and thermal property. Coconut shell was carbonized using a retort made of galvanized steel, then was crushed and sifted using a screen with 60 mesh. Red clay was pulverized and screened from 60 and 100 mesh and the flour was sieved to 60 and 100 mesh. X-ray fluorescence (XRF) was used to analyzed the elemental composition of the raw materials. Fuel analysis was tested and the calculations was based on ASTM methods. The physical and thermal properties charcoal briquettes (CB) were tested to determine the effect of red clay that is added in each formulation and compared to commercial briquette. ER -
