The development of the fishery industry not only provides advantages, but has a significant impact on the environment. Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) can be used to identify positive and negative environmental impacts of a process or product, find opportunities for processing and product development, comparing and analyzing the impact of the environment caused and calculat the environmental impacts resulting from a quantitative product. Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) according to the ISO 14040

... s of four stages, namely the determination of the goals and scope, inventory analysis, impact analysis, and interpretation. The purpose of this literature study was to identify and quantify the potential pollution and environmental impact caused by the production process in the fishery industry. Fishery products studied were fish fillets and canned fish products. The potential environmental impacts of processing of fishery industry cover greenhouse gas (GHG), acidification, and eutrophication. The description of the environmental impact analysis in the fishery processing industry was explained in this work. The literature data indicates that the impact of GHG is caused by CO2, the impact of acidification is generated by SO2, and the effects of eutrophication are generated by PO4 3-. Recommendations for improvements are replacing energy sources and fuels.
