ABSTRACT
The abundance of nutmeg seed shells in Tidore is the reason to study the possibility to produce
charcoal briquettes. The use of charcoal briquettes was expected to reduce waste of nutmeg seed shell
and can be an alternative energy source with a high economic value. This study aims to investigate the
effect of pyrolysis temperature and composition of tapioca adhesive to resulting quality of briquettes.
The first step of the research was the preparation of nutmeg seed shells consisted of drying and size
reduction into
