Pra Rancangan Pabrik Pembuatan Dekstrin dari Pati Biji Alpukat dengan Proses Hidrolisa Menggunakan Katalis Enzim – Amilase pada Kapasitas 8.200 Ton/Tahun

Abstract

Avocado seed is one part of the avocado that is rarely used and is considered as waste. Avocado seeds have a high content of starch compounds so they can be used as raw materials for products, one of which is dextrin products. Dextrin is a modified starch product that is often used in the chemical, food and pharmaceutical industries. The need for dextrin continues to increase every year as can be seen from the value of imports in Indonesia, so that dextrin has great opportunities in the industrial world. The pre-designed factory for making dextrin from avocado seeds will use a hydrolysis process catalyzed by α-amylase enzymes. This factory is designed with a production capacity of 8,200 tons/year and operates for 330 days a year. The factory location is planned in Ciampel District, Karawang Regency, West Java Province, Indonesia with the required land area of 12,408 m2. The business entity form of this factory is planned as a Limited Liability Company (PT) with line and staff organizational forms, and a workforce of 131 people. The results of the pre-designed economic analysis of the factory for making dextrin from avocado seeds are as follows:  Total Investment Capital = Rp 274.891.875.873  Total Production Cost = Rp 274.644.998.338  Sales Proceeds = Rp 370.902.630.996  Net Profit = Rp 67.098.441.147  Profit Margin (PM) = 25,822 %  Break Even Point (BEP) = 48,115 %  Return On Investment (ROI) = 24,409 %  Pay Out Time (POT) = 4,10 years  Internal Rate of Return (IRR) = 31,841 % Based on the results of the economic analysis, it can be concluded that the factory for making dextrin from avocado seeds is feasible to establish.
