The charcoal produced which was completed after 2 days, were then subjected to chemical analysis. The analysis consist of specific gravity, moisture content, ash, volatile matter and fixed carbon. In addition to the aboue test, the charcoal of each species were tested in blacksmith which manufacture chopping knife.
The result shows that out of the 4 bamboo species tested, ater seems to be the best with regard to charcoal yield, chemical properties and application in blacksmith work. |
