| dc.description.abstract | The increasing demand for pulp is causing a raw material crisis in the
form of wood, so alternative raw materials are needed. Corn husk is a waste that
contains cellulose compounds so that it can be used as an alternative in replacing
wood in pulp making. The process in this factory design consists of several stages,
namely the preparation of raw materials, the cooking stage using NaOH, the pulp
washing and pressing stage, the bleaching stage using the enzyme laccase, the
drying stage, pulp packaging and storage, and the recovery stage.
Pulp from corn husk is produced with a capacity of 75,100 tons/year and
operates for 330 days a year. The location of the factory is planned in the Teluk
Dalam District, Asahan Regency, North Sumatra Province, with an area of
18,540,500 m2, a total of 136 employee, with the form of business entity Limited
Liability Company (PT) and with a line and staff organisation system.
The results of the economic analysis of the Pulp Manufacturing Plant with Soda
Process and Bleaching Using Laccase Enzyme are as follows:
• Capital Investment (CI) : Rp. 1.172.713.400.629
• Total Cost (TC) : Rp. 1.946.738.951.989
• Total Sales : Rp. 2.328.100.000.000
• Net Income : Rp. 235.796.447.147
• Profit Margin (PM) : 15,562%
• Break Even Point (BEP) : 30,883 %
• Return on Investment (ROI) : 20,107%
• Pay Out Time (POT) : 4,9 year
• Return on Network (RON) : 33,512%
• Internal Rate of Return (IRR) : 19,267%
Based on the results of the economic aspect analysis, it can be concluded that the
Pulp Making Plant from Corn Skin with Soda Process Using Bleaching Enzyme
Lakase is feasible to establish. | en_US |
