Abstract

A study on energy productivity ratio (EPR) in producing aren sugar (palm sugar) from nira solution of aren trees is the result of this paper. This study was based on the energy ratio of the input energy in comparison to the output energy in processing nira solution become palm sugar. Calculations were based on the data obtained through literature survey of nira processing into palm sugar traditionally in many parts of village areas in Indonesia. The major output energy was based on the palm sugar product compared to the input energy based on all nira price, used energy, and depreciation of instruments used. The EPR result as palm sugar product is > 3.0 for the utilization of nira solution from aren trees. The EPR result is positive information on the potential to develop the product in factory scale. It is an indication that the palm sugar product from aren trees is an energetically reasonable business enterprise based on EPR. The nira of aren tree has potential as raw material in producing the sugar.
