Blockchain-Based Coal Mining Concession Production Monitoring System

This research investigates the application of blockchain technology in coal supply chain production and selling, with a specific focus on overcoming supervisory challenges in Indonesia's coal industry. Given the prevalence of document falsification and production quota violations, the study emphasizes the potential of consortium blockchain to ensure data integrity and regulatory compliance. The research involved developing a prototype blockchain-based monitoring system and conducting a comparative security analysis between systems with and without blockchain integration. Results demonstrated a complete elimination of critical, high, low, and informational vulnerabilities in the blockchain-based system, highlighting its superior security capabilities. This study underscores the transformative potential of blockchain technology in enhancing the security, transparency, and efficiency of coal supply chain management, advocating for its broader adoption in the industry to foster accountability and sustainable development.
