Abstract
One example of liquid waste is used cooking oil. In addition to being bad for human health, used cooking oil can also pollute the environment, such as decreasing the quality of water and soil, and causing clogging of drains if disposed of just like that. This community service activity using training and mentoring methods aims to provide knowledge about the impact of used cooking oil waste and the economic potential of used cooking oil waste, provide entrepreneurial insights related to the production of aromatherapy candles, as well as provide training in making aromatherapy candles using the basic ingredients of used cooking oil. This service was carried out in Tapen Hamlet, Hargomulyo, Kulon Progo. The target of this socialization and training activity is housewives. The activity, which was carried out on August 11, 2023, ran smoothly and received a positive response and high enthusiasm from the participants. The hope of this dedication is that the community of Tapen Hamlet, Hargomulyo, Kulon Progo is increasingly concerned with the environment by not throwing away the wastes of cooking oil as well as being able to create a creative economy of households by utilizing the used cooking oil.
