Abstract

Abstract -  Most Indonesians use cooking oil as an ingredient to process food. The continuous use of cooking oil has the potential to create household waste which certainly has various negative impacts. The problem of used cooking oil waste is also found in Sengerang Hamlet, Planjan Village, Saptosari District, where there are still many residents who have not been able to utilize used cooking oil waste properly. The Field Study and Community Service (KKN) program aims to solve this problem by utilizing household waste, namely used cooking oil, into environmentally friendly products in the form of aromatherapy candles. The research conducted by the collaborative KKN Group 121 used descriptive qualitative methods and data collection using structured interviews. This service activity was carried out using socialization and training methods regarding the making of aromatherapy candles. The participants were 25 PKK women in Sengerang Hamlet. The results of this activity are that participants are able to produce aromatherapy candles from used cooking oil and get aromatherapy candles packaged in glass cups. The existence of this activity is able to provide benefits to people's lives, especially for mothers in Sengerang Hamlet in utilizing used cooking oil into environmentally friendly products, namely aromatherapy candles so as to reduce the negative impact of household waste.
