Abstract

This community service activity aims to improve the understanding and skills of school dropouts in Pasar Kerkap Village by providing training in charcoal production using technology derived from used oil stoves. The program is designed using a participatory training approach based on appropriate technology, emphasizing the active role of participants throughout the process. The activity begins with a preparatory phase that includes coordination with village officials, a survey to find participants, the provision of tools and materials, and the development of training modules. Next, a socialization session is held discussing the concepts of renewable energy, biomass waste processing, and how used oil stoves work through interactive lectures and equipment demonstrations. The main part of this activity is hands-on practice in charcoal production, which includes raw material preparation, the charcoal-making process, cooling, packaging, and a simulation of calculating production costs as a form of entrepreneurship education. The mentoring and evaluation phase is carried out to ensure that participants can apply the technology independently, as well as to assess product quality and the sustainability of the program. The results of this activity include the formation of a skilled youth group, environmentally friendly charcoal products with market value, and training modules and videos as learning tools. This program is expected to encourage economic independence and increase environmental awareness by utilizing waste productively.

Abstract

This community service activity introduced retort technology as a more efficient and environmentally friendly alternative to traditional charcoal production methods. The training was conducted through theoretical presentations, tool demonstrations, and participatory field practice by members of the Pasar Kerkap Village Youth Organization. The main objective of this activity was to improve participants' knowledge and skills in sustainable charcoal production. A 10-item questionnaire was used to evaluate the success of 20 participants, covering technical knowledge, practical skills, and attitudes toward clean technology implementation. Data analysis was conducted descriptively using quantitative and qualitative approaches by comparing pre-test and post-test results. Technically, this activity targeted a 20% increase in charcoal yield, a 25% reduction in production time, and a reduction in smoke emissions during the combustion process. The training results showed a significant increase in participants' understanding of the safe and efficient working methods and procedures for operating retorts. Participants were able to operate the equipment according to the instructions and demonstrated a higher awareness of occupational safety and environmental impacts. Furthermore, they considered retort technology more fuel-efficient and easier to implement than conventional methods. Overall, this activity successfully achieved its objectives by providing appropriate technological solutions that have the potential to encourage local innovation and new business opportunities in the renewable energy sector
