| Abstract | Increasing demand for Lele catfish (Clarias gariepinus) in Bogor has been converting land to farms for growing fish. It also uses water, feeds, fish medicines (antibiotics), and other chemicals used regularly to get optimal production. LCA of Lele catfish farming was performed in order to know its impacts to environment. One ton of Lele catfish at the market was selected as functional unit. In the farm, the most significant impact was from Lele catfish feed around 89.5% of total impact. Eutropichation was contributing the highest impact followed by Marine aquatic ecotoxicity, Freshwater aquatic ecotoxicity and Global warming potential. Two scenarios were applied in order to reduce the impact: scenario 1 (feed substitution scenario) and scenario 2 (100% recirculating system scenario).Scenario 1 is substituting Lele catfish feed to Striped catfish feed. It was used since it has no rice bran in the ingredient. The results showed that scenario 1 could reduce impact in Eutrophication (7.59%), Human toxicity (32.18%), Fresh water aquatic ecotoxicity (64.69%), Marine aquatic ecotoxicity (58.03%) and Land use (60.36%). Meanwhile, scenario 2 gave about 90% of improvement in Eutrophication category. However, using Eco-indicator 99 (H) single score showed that scenario 1 performed better than scenario 2. |
