Abstract

The use of LPG (Liquefied Petroleum Gas) fuel as a substitute for kerosene fuel on the stove has advantages in its excellent combustion process, but there are several weaknesses in its use, namely the risk of gas leakage in the LPG cylinder, and of course the high price of LPG cause increasing the community burden. The purpose of this study was to produce a waste cooking oil simple stove on a household scale. This research used an experimental method which was conducted for 6 (six) months, began from February 2020 to July 2020. The stages of the research were data collection, making waste cooking oil stove design, preparing tools and materials, making waste cooking oil stoves and testing it. The results showed that the flame produced on the waste cooking oil stove was stable, but the resulting fire was still red due to the incomplete combustion process caused by the lack of air/oxygen pumped into the stove. The advantage of this waste cooking oil stove is the simple installation, portable to use, inexpensive manufacturing cost and more safety than using LPG stove.
