KAJIAN KONSUMSI ENERGI BEBERAPA JENIS PRODUK INDUSTRI KAYU

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to identify the energy consumption from PLN (state electric company) electricity, diesel fuel and wood waste per m³ production of several products of wood industries. The products included in the study are plywood, jointing board, matches and chopstick, wood working, housing component, particleboard, picture frame and sawntimber.

The study revealed that energy consumption from PLN electricity per m³ productions for plywood was 149.51 kwh, jointing board was 152.29 kw, sawntimber ranged from 34.25 to 55.87 kwh and wood working was 178.11 kwh. The consumption of diesel fuel for plywood was 50.97 liters, and sawntimber was 14.23 liters. The biomass energy consumption per m³ productions for picture frame was 0.08 m3 which gave the lowest figure while the highest was for jointing-board, namely, 0.604 m³. The share of biomass energy per m3 productions was 82 % of the total energy consumption.
