Abstract

The production of polylimonene carbonate from siamese orange peel (Citrus Nobilis L.) through a solution polymerization reaction with operating conditions of temperature 25°C and pressure of 1 atm in a continuos stirred tank reactor. The polylimonene carbonate plant is planned to produce with a production capacity of 36,000 tons/year (4,545.4545 kg/hour) and operate for 330 days a year. This plant is expected to meet 50% of the demand for polylimonene carbonate in Indonesia. The planned business entity form is a Limited Liability Company and the organizational form is line and staff with the required workforce of 114 people. The results of the economic analysis of the production of polylimonene carbonate from siamese orange peels (Citrus Nobilis L.):  Total Investment Capital : Rp 2.132.777.977.819,42  Total Production Cost : Rp 3.950.865.811.594,50  Sales Proceeds : Rp 4.703.375.110.238,79  Net Profit : Rp 500.473.683.598,45  Profit Margin (PM) : 15,1994 %  Break Even Point (BEP) : 39,7244 %  Return On Investment (ROI) : 23,4658 %  Pay Out Time (POT) : 4 years 3 months  Return On Network (RON) : 36,1012 %  Internal Rate of Return (IRR) : 23,0348 % From the results of the analysis of the economic aspects, it can be concluded that a factory for the manufacture of polylimonene carbonate from siamese orange peel (Citrus Nobilis L.) is feasible to establish.
