摘要

Crystal coconut sugar from Banyumas Regency has increasing market potential due to its organic certification, low glycemic index, and perceived functional value. However, its production must meet both food quality standards and environmental requirements. This study evaluated the nutritional quality and environmental performance of crystal coconut sugar production using antioxidant analysis, wastewater characterization, and life cycle assessment (LCA) based on SNI ISO 14040:2016 and SNI ISO 14044:2016. Antioxidant-related parameters, including DPPH inhibition, IC50, AEAC, and total polyphenols, were analyzed across processing stages, while environmental impacts were assessed using the ReCiPe 2016 midpoint (H) method. The results showed that heating, evaporation, drying, and moisture removal strongly influenced antioxidant properties by concentrating bioactive compounds, degrading heat-sensitive antioxidants, or promoting process-induced antioxidant formation. The LCA results showed a GWP of 3.63 × 10−1 kg CO2-eq per kg product, with the second processing stage, consisting of cooking, initial packaging, and transportation, as the dominant hotspot. In addition to GWP, particulate matter formation, fossil resource scarcity, toxicity-related impacts, and packaging-related burdens were relevant environmental concerns. Sensitivity analysis indicated that sawdust, LPG, and packaging were key parameters affecting environmental performance. The integrated nutritional-environmental interpretation shows that thermally intensive stages responsible for antioxidant transformation are also major contributors to environmental burdens, indicating a quality environment trade-off. Controlled heating, improved evaporation efficiency, cleaner energy, optimized drying, lower-impact packaging, food-grade equipment, and wastewater treatment are recommended.
