LIFE CYCLE ASSESSMENT PADA PEMBIBITAN KELAPA SAWIT UNTUK MENGHITUNG EMISI GAS RUMAH KACA
Abstrak: Palm oil plantations
in Indonesia is growing every year due to increased consumption of vegetable
oil in line with the increase in the population of the world that are used as
food , cosmetics , renewable sources , etc. Challenges in the development of
palm oil plantations are problems and negative issues; land conflicts, damage to biodiversity, and
environmental damage issues. Environmental damage caused by palm oil
plantations became the object of attack developed countries and Non
Governmental Organization (NGO), with the pretext to cause an increase in
Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions that cause global warming. This research aimed
to determine the Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions in palm oil seedling
production. Methods carried out were studying the environmental aspects of a
product by Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) in which all environmental aspects were
analyzed and evaluated throughout its life cycle. Steps in LCA were goal and
scope definition, life cycle inventory, life cycle impact assessment, and life
cycle interpretation. The result showed that in the palm oil seedling sources
of Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions
derived from the use of diesel fuel, NPK fertilizer, pesticides, and
fungicides. Total emissions of Greenhouse Gases (GHG) is 0.50685 kg CO2 eq /
seed. Diesel fuel became the biggest emissions is 0,332 kg CO2 eq / seed or
65.5 % and emissions from the use of NPK fertilizers is 0.1703 kg CO2 eq / seed
or 33.6 % of total Greenhouse Gas ( GHG ) emissions in palm oil seedling.
