Comparing the Environmental Impact of Different Input Material for Combustion (HSD and Gas with Natural Gas) at Combined Cycle Steam Power Plant Using Life Cycle Assessment (Case Study: Muara Karang Plant)

Abstract

Combined cycle steam power plant has been operated to produce the electricity. There is some input used in combined cycle steam power plant, some of them are the HSD combined with natural gas and the input with only natural gas. To find the different impact to environment, it has been conducted study using Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) method. The study describes the process of input and calculate the input using LCA model. The study is conducted at Muara Karang which uses 2 different input in its power generation. The study shows that the input with only natural gas has less impact than the input with the combination of HSD and natural gas.
