Straw is a waste produced from the threshing and harvesting of rice. So far, rice straw has only been removed. In fact, it can be used as a potential energy source. This paper aims to examine the potential of rice straw as a renewable energy source in Indonesia. Opportunities and challenges were evaluated based on extensive and in-depth literature review. The paper discussed rice straw potential, its characteristics and benefits of using straw energy. Technology to convert rice straw into energy was also discussed. Results showed that renewable energy potential of rice straw is 28.8 TJ/year. Conversion technologies that can be applied include densification, combustion, gasification, and biogas. The biggest challenge for using rice straw energy is collection and transportation. Densification may overcome density problem by producing high quality pellets or briquettes that reduce transportation and storage costs. Straw characteristics need to be improved to increase its combustion properties.

Abstract In Malaysia, waste paddy plant after rice harvesting were abundant and have no commercial value and significant usage. This paddy waste is commonly burnt on the landfilled which cause open firing and leads to environmental problem. This study determines the potential of rice straw waste for charcoal briquette production and study the effect of using different binders (corn and tapioca starch) in making the briquettes. Raw rice straws were combusted at 260°C for 4 hours in oven to form char powder. Corn starch and tapioca starch used as binder and each of them was mixed with char powder before compacted into briquettes. Each briquette was characterized in terms of their bulk density, moisture content, ash content, compressive strength and flammable characteristics. It was found that corn starch-charcoal briquette showed higher ash content, higher bulk density and compressive strength up to 68 MPa. Increased of both binders has increased the bulk density and compressive strength of briquettes. Both type of charcoal briquettes showed similar ignition time and burning characteristic, approximately at 18 minutes and 0.08 gm/min respectively.

One of the reasons for the decline in rice production in Indonesia is that most of the paddy fields are already degraded, which is characterized by, among other things, low organic matter content. straw produced in rice cultivation is 7 tonnes / ha. However, the components of rice straw are mainly cellulose, hemicellulose, lignin, and small amounts of protein which make the C / N value high. The methods used in this activity are in the form of counseling, demonstration plots / pilots of making rice straw compost, guidance and counseling, field applications or planting rice using compost, monitoring and field evaluation. The results of the community service that has been carried out in Karyasari Village, Rengas Dengklok District, Karawang Regency were carried out by 10 members and this research was carried out well and by monitoring to see how successful compost from agricultural waste was.
