The Impact

Coffee is one of Indonesia's leading commodity that has the potential to be developed for agro-industry. High coffee production has encouraged the establishment of a small and medium coffee industry. The purpose of this study is to analyze possible strategies for implementing cleaner production and evaluate the impact on the environment using Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) method with a gate to gate scope. The stages of cleaner production research used quick scan techniques, source identification, cause evaluation and option generation implementation. LCA research stages with the determination of the objectives and scope of research, inventory analysis, environmental impact assessment and implementation of improvements. Greenhouse gases (GHG) emission was assessed as an environmental impact parameter. The results showed the alternative potential for cleaner production that was applied the manufacture of drying domes (Payback Period/PBP) 3.18 months with an investment ofRp. 2,285,000), procurement of generator machines (PBP 1.16 months with an investment of Rp. 5,860,000), making air circulation in roasting room (PBP 0.07 months with an investment of Rp. 1,268,000), making of solid waste composting reactor (PBP 2.18 months with an investment of Rp. 3,440,000) and addition packing equipment (PBP 0.45 month with an investment of Rp. 3.057 .000). The results of the LCA analysis show that 1,000 Kg of dry-processed coffee requires energy of 869.92 MJ and produces GHG emissions of 95.58 Kg CO₂eq / ton coffee fruits or 0.42Kg CO₂eq / Kg coffee powder equal to 2.389Kg CO₂eq/month and 28.674Kg CO₂eq/year.Key words : environmental impact assessment, life cycle assessment, small coffee industries

Analysis Tool

Planning urban expansion under the interconnected Sustainable Development Goals requires a systemic analysis of its environmental impacts. The benefits of integrating the widely used system analysis tool life cycle assessment (LCA) into the planning process tool environmental impact assessment (EIA) are described in the literature. However, not many applications of such an integration have been conducted. The aim of this study is to refine the framework for integrating LCA into the process of EIA and to apply this framework to an example of urban expansion: Masdar City in Abu Dhabi. The integrated framework builds on the complementarity between the scope and assessment steps of the tools and assesses the impacts for the areas of protection: human health, ecosystem, and resources. The framework is then applied to the vehicles, buildings, and infrastructure in the city’s first development phase (DP1). Major environmental stressors include the loss of existing desert ecosystem and the utilization of non-renewable sources of energy at various development stages of DP1. Substituting natural gas-based electricity with solar power could potentially save 46% of current carbon emissions. To mitigate the land transformation impacts, construction of “close-to-nature” artificial habitats, and increased use of low-carbon fuels is suggested.

The Impact

Basically each product or service has its own life cycle. Life Cycle Analysis Method can be used to assess the impact of an activity both production and service activities. Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) or Analisis Mengenai Dampak Lingkungan (AMDAL) is one of the activities that must be fulfilled in order to obtain an environmental permit. EIA activities have a life cycle process that needs to be known and understood so that environmental permits can be obtained. Therefore this study aims to find out the use of the LCA method in EIA procedures. In addition, with the LCA method, EIA activities are expected to be well studied according to the function of this service. LCA can provide to reduce the least impact from environmental damage. This research will be useful for the development of environmental science, especially related to the study of environmental impacts, especially EIA. It is expected that the results of the study will provide a complete picture of the relevance of the LCA method with EIA and the benefits that can be taken. The results of this study will be an important recommendation for decision makers regarding the importance of EIA in development, especially sustainable development through the method used, namely LCA.
