Abstract
Abstract PT X is a company engaged in the bottled drinking water industry. In order to carry out its activities, the company strives to create a better future through a healthy lifestyle, earth, and ecosystem. Therefore, this factory needs to conduct a Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) as part of the company’s commitment to environmental conservation. Based on the LCA results assessment using the SimaPro software version 9.1.1.7 with the eco-cost 2024 V1.0 method, it can be seen that the three stages of the production process that are hotspots are the process of making preform bottles with a contribution of 53.85% or IDR 29,303,310,488, followed by the packing process with a contribution of 25.24% or IDR 13,733,242,930, and the distribution process with a contribution of 9.75% or IDR 5,307,391,210. The improvement recommendations given include the implementation of an air recovery system to reuse residual air in the process of blowing preform into bottles, improvement of road infrastructure in the distribution area, implementation of truck use policies, enforcement of regulations with certification and testing motorized vehicles transporting goods and the implementation of a hybrid solar PV system to improve energy efficiency and reliability as well as optimize space for PV installation.
