IDENTIFICATION OF PHENOL COMPOUNDS OF LIQUID SMOKE SHELL OIL AT HIGH TEMPERATURE PYROLYSIS

Abstract

The aim of this study was to determine the content of phenol in the liquid smoke palm kernel shells produced at a temperature 600?C, 700?C, 800?C. Pyrolysis process was carried out by using a furnice that surrounding covered with fire-resistant white cement so that the smoke does not escape into the air and liquid smoke produced more leverage. Temperatures used 600?C, 700?C, 800?C use with condenser-type spiral coil number of turns 30. Liquid smoke produced in deposited for 7 days and in the centrifuge with a rotation speed of 3800 rpm for 60 minutes, filtered and distilled at 125?C temperature for 60 minutes. Liquid smoke analyzed (characterization) using GC-MS and phenol identified for each temperature 600?C is 35.09%, the temperature 700?C is 37.962% and 37.494% temperature 800?C is.
