...Production of Charcoal using Different Kinds of Dried Leaves Submitted By: Andrew Matthew Ortoño April Mae Quilago Mary Karen Luceñara Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements in Research III Bacolod City National High School October 20,2015 Ms. Maria Vonessa Miraflores Research Adviser Background of the Study: For now on our life are become easier because of the technology. Technology is very important for us and even in cooking it become easier to cook. We used the LPG or a stove and other things we need in cooking. Because of this highly - invented materials, it makes our life easier. And other ways to cook is using a charcoal that is made of different kinds of trees and it is our big problem. The big problem is we should cut down trees in order to make charcoals but it may result some risk not only on ourselves but our surroundings also. Because of this problem we need to help to prevent from risk. According to our investigatory project, we study how to reduce cutting down trees to make a charcoal and studied to make a charcoal using different kinds of dried leaves like Mango leaves, Papaya leaves and etc.. It is just a dried leaves but it has its own purpose to make a charcoal to lessen of cutting down the trees. And because of this project we can help to prevent a big problem in our country. Significance of the Study: People need food in order to survive. They usually use LPG, which may have risks and may be too much expensive for...

...(Swietenia macrophylla) LEAVES AS AN ALTERNATIVE SOURCE OF CHARCOAL” Objective: to make an alternative charcoal. Statement of the Problem: 1. What ratio of mahogany leaves and other materials will be used in making charcoal? 2. Which trial will the best charcoal are produced in terms of its performance? 3. Is there a significant difference between the charcoal made from mahogany leaves and commercial charcoal in terms of performance? 4. What are the environmental implications of the charcoal produced from mahogany leaves? Hypothesis: There is no significant difference between the charcoal produced from mahogany leaves and the commercial charcoal in terms of performance. Background of the study: One small field of mahogany leaves can make an alternative charcoal. These materials can, however, be used to produce fuel for heating and cooking. The discarded plant material is naturally rich in carbon, which like wood chunks can be used in to make homemade charcoal. Making your own charcoal can reduce dependence on fossil fuels, make heating and cooking cheaper and reduce the waste in landfills. Charcoal will go further if it is used efficiently and if its quality is optimum for the particular end use. Charcoal quality can be specified and measured in various ways which are usually derived from the various end use requirements. Efficiency in use normally means transferring the maximum amount of the heat content of the charcoal to the object to be heated...

...papers. One thing we notice about the students, in which we also find ourselves guilty, is the fact of throwing the ballpens to the trash bins once they ran out of ink. This observation is what led us to design our Investigatory Project this way. What if we make our own ink the fill the cartridges when they become empty? Wouldn’t it be helpful? We bet it will be. Our desired ink will be made up of materials that are convenient and easy to find, those that are not scarce in the society, just like dried leaves which can be found in the streets. Also, we will make use of candles and used plates instead of lamp black. We target to promote an environmental-friendly product which can minimize our trashes and help solve ecological problems. Hopefully, by the end of this Investigatory Project, we will be able to come up with a versatile ink that can influence students to save and use our natural resources wisely. B. Statement of the Problem This study aims to identify how dried leaves can be produced as a calligraphy ink. Aside from this, we tend to find the answers to the following questions: 1. Is it possible to come up...

...the Study Charcoal is the dark grey residue consisting of impure carbon obtained by removing water and other volatile constituents from animal and vegetation substances. Charcoal is usually produced by slow pyrolysis, the heating of wood or other substances in the absence of oxygen. The resulting soft, brittle, lightweight, black, material resembles coal. It has been used since the earliest times for a range of purposes including art and medicine, but by far its most important use has been as a metallurgical fuel. Prior to the industrial revolution charcoal was occasionally used as a cooking fuel. Philippines is the Top 1 among the coconut producing countries. For coconut is abundant in our country, it is popular for its culinary purposes, commercial, industrial, and household uses, and medical applications. Coconut shells with husks are used to buff wooden floors, making it clean and shiny (free from dusts). Here in the Philippines, it is known as “bunot”. The husk and shells can be used for fuel and are a source of charcoal. Coconut shells/husks are usually left around and are considered wastes besides making them into husks. To get benefits from them, by a primitive process, they can be produced to charcoal which can be an alternative fuel especially for cooking. B. Statement of the Problem The study aims to produce charcoal using coconut (Cocos nucifera) fibers. Specifically, it seeks to find answers for the following questions: 1.

...THE USE OF BIOMASS WASTES TO FABRICATE CHARCOAL SUBSTITUTES IN KENYA Feasibility Study forming part of the Shell Foundation-supported project on charcoal briquetting in Kenya March 2004 Chardust Ltd. P.O. Box 24371 Nairobi and Spectrum Technical Services P.O. Box 69993 Nairobi Executive Summary This study was designed by Chardust Ltd. and implemented jointly by Chardust and Spectrum Technical Services, a Nairobi-consulting firm. The aim was to determine the viability of producing briquetted charcoal fuel from biomass wastes in Kenya. The study was funded by the Shell Foundation and conducted over a two month period in late 2003. The viability of producing fuel commercially from biomass wastes was assessed from four perspectives: (a) Availability: Existence and accessibility of biomass in bulk, preferably with no competing uses. The study began with a list of 28 potential wastes, which was narrowed down to 20 and then to just ten, according to a ranking system based upon basic availability and accessibility. (b) Conversion Potential: Physical suitability for drying, carbonisation and briquetting. Samples of the ten short-listed wastes were sourced and delivered to Chardust in Nairobi, where production trials were carried out. Based on these trials, a ranking system was devised for comparing the wastes in terms of their suitability for fuel production. (c) Fuel Quality: Energy value and general performance of fabricated fuel. The third part of the study comprised...

...Coconut Conservation status: Secure | Coconut Palm | | Kingdom: | Plantae | Division: | Magnoliophyta | Class: | Liliopsida | Order: | Arecales | Family: | Arecaceae | Genus: | Cocos | Species: | C. nucifera | | Binomial name | Cocos nucifera L. | The Coconut Palm(Cocos nucifera), is a member of the familyArecaceae (palm family). It is the only species in the genus Cocos, and is a large palm, growing to 30 m tall, with pinnateleaves 4-6 m long, with pinnae 60-90 cm long; old leaves fall cleanly leaving the trunk smooth. The term coconut refers to the fruit of the coconut palm. Origins and Cultivation The origins of this plant are the subject of debate with some authorities claiming it is native to southeast Asia, while others claim its origin is in north-western South America. Fossil records from New Zealandindicate that small coconut-like plants grew there as far back 15 million years ago. Even older fossils have been uncovered in Rajasthan,India. Regardless of their origins, coconuts have spread across much of the tropics, in particular along tropical shorelines. Since its fruit is light and buoyant, the plant is readily spread by marine currents, which can carry coconuts significant distances. The Coconut palm thrives on sandy soils and is highly tolerant of salinity and prefers areas with abundant sunlight and regular rainfall (75-200 cm annually), which makes colonising the many shorelines of the tropics relatively straightforward. Coconuts...

...to me is the eucalyptus tree. Growing up as a kid, I always wondered how a plant could grow so tall towering over everything else and lasting for years and years through severe weather changes. Eucalyptus is flowering tree with several different types of species. The name is actually derived from the Greek word “eucalyptos,” which means “well covered,” and refers to the cuplike membrane that covers the budding flowers of the tree.2 They are mostly found in the continent of Australia, and few parts in Africa as well. The wood from eucalyptus trees are very hard and they are used to make furniture, fences, canoe boats and picture frames. These trees can grow really tall usually over 80 meters in height towering into the sky with wide spread leaves. Because of its large geographic range the genus exhibits many habits, from tall trees to multistemmed, shrubby species called mallees. The mountain ash (Eucalyptus regnans) of Victoria and Tasmania is the tallest hardwood in the world, reaching heights over 330 ft (100 m); only the coast redwoods of California are taller. Having epicormic buds in branches and stems, and lignotubers in the roots, many species are well adapted for surviving fire and drought. Some species have smooth bark, in which case they are referred to as gum-barked, while others have rough bark.1 To begin, the scientific name for the eucalyptus plant is Eucalyptus Globules. The Eucalyptus originated from the continent of Australia and they make up...

...originated, it has made a historical and a cultural significance in the world. All classes of tea derived from the same plant, Camellia Sinensis. Isn’t it surprising that teas with different flavor and aroma are made from the same leaf? As time passed, tea began to be drunk as something that satisfies thirst and as a table luxury. Tea also has many medical applications as Bencao Shiyi, a Chinese classical pharmaceutical book, has states, “Drinking tea for a long time will make one live long to stay in good shape without becoming too fat and too heavy.” It is said that tea was first discovered by the second emperor of China, Shen Nung. Legend has it that while boiling some drinking water, tea leaves blew into his pot. He found the flavor pleasant. He then experimented with the leaves and discovered that it has some medicinal properties. He acknowledged it gave one "vigor of body, contentment of mind, and determination of purpose." He began cultivating the plant for the benefit of his nation. In the early days tea was primarily used as medicine and was very bitter. It took three centuries for the drink to become popular in China. Due to its popularity during the Tang Dynasty it became taxed commodity. Preceding Ming Dynasty, tea was manufactured for strictly for import in China. It was not until the early 1600s that the Dutch introduced tea into Europe. Even though it was expensive, it was soon fashionably consumed. In the United Kingdom the British colonies and the East...
