Abstract

Climate change has been a crucial issue in the world, it is believed as one of the cause of the agricultural disruption through extreme weather. Indonesia is an agrarian country which supports the Paris Agreement COP21 in reducing greenhouse gases concentration in the atmosphere to prevent climate change, especially CO2. Research about palm oil as a source of renewable energy have do to. Nowadays, Indonesia is the biggest exporter country of palm oil in the world, while palm oil is well known as one of the source of alternative energy which has high potential in reducing greenhouse gases concentration in atmosphere because has been carbon stock or utilization biomass as renewable energy.This study aimed to evaluate palm oil as a sustainable energy alternative and carbon emissions from CPO production. In this study carbon mobilization in palm oil was investigated from oil palm plantation process to the milling process. It was associated with carbon emission, carbon fixation, and carbon reduction. Survey results showed that the daily energy use in the mill start up averaged 5.6 kWh/ton of FFB. In addition, in the process of production CPO per ton achieved 52% that wastewater generated. Wastewater produces methane gas that could be converted biogas as a renewable energy. Based on the carbon balance approach, carbon emissions observed from the use of fossil energy in palm oil milling. The total of carbon emissions from palm oil milling can be calculated, resulting in a reduction of carbon in CPO production. The emission sources could be calculated from the use of fossil fuel, electricity. The total carbon emission from palm oil milling is very small (0.042%).While the emission reduction could be calculated from the utilization of waste either at the palm oil milling or palm oil plantation as a power generated or a soil fertility.
