- Abstract
Indonesia as a maritime country has abundant marine resources. Indonesia's fisheries sector has significantly contributed to the world's food needs. Processed swimming crabs and swimming crab products are one of Indonesia's most important exports. Swimming crabs are generally exported fresh, frozen, or canned. The use of swimming crabs is only for the part that can be consumed, namely the meat. Swimming crab shells have the potential to pollute the environment. In addition, several countries have implemented regulations regarding environmental sustainability requirements in achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) with one of the programs related to zero waste products and environmentally friendly processes. The utilization of swimming crab shell waste is not optimal as organic fertilizer, feeds fish, chitin, and chitosan. This floating crab shell trash may be used to make useful items including calcium source flour, stuffed crab shells, crab broth, seasoning powder, umami flavor enhancer powder and seafood seasoning flour. This article investigates the possibility of crab waste as a food product with a range of processing options with a selling value. This study provides a solid foundation for expanding awareness of environmental challenges and the socioeconomic benefits of waste management.
