Abstract
Cassava is one of the raw materials that are widely cultivated to be used as various processed foods. Cassava raw materials have a strategic role in improving the economy in Sampang District. One of the businesses that process cassava raw materials is UD Sumber Mutiara. The large scale of production is one of the factors for uncontrolled production waste, causing various problems. This waste problem can be overcome by further processing the waste generated in each production. The purpose of this study is to determine the general description of the company, especially the waste generated in each production, determine the best alternative from several alternatives to be applied in processing cassava skin waste, and determine the process of processing cassava waste based on the selected alternative. The method used in analyzing is using the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) method and the Simple Additive Weighting (SAW) method as an advanced method. The results of this study are based on the calculation of the AHP method obtained the weight value of each criterion, namely the product criteria of 0.291, price criteria of 0.051, process criteria of 0.330, and engineering criteria of 0.328. The results of the calculation of the weight value are used in further calculations using the SAW method to obtain the best alternative rating value. The selected alternative is processed cassava skin chips with an alternative value of 0.836. The aspects that need to be considered in processing cassava waste consist of 4 aspects, namely, product quality, production costs, production time, and energy efficiency.
