The amount of waste in Indonesia is estimated to reach 68 million tons in 2019, of which 9.52 million tons is plastic waste. With this amount, Indonesia is ranked second in the world as the largest producer of plastic waste. One area that suffers from plastic waste is the coastal area. This plastic waste is difficult to decompose and cause environmental problems. Likewise, it happened on the Tambaan coast in Tambaan sub-district, Panggungrejo sub-district, Pasuruan city. Current conditions of plastic waste accumulate throughout the coastal area. The accumulation of scattered plastic waste and its proximity to the residents settlements has become a hotbed of mosquitoes and a pungent smell. The Serving Doctoral Program at Universitas Brawijaya offers a solution to process plastic waste into fuel oil such as diesel, kerosene, and premium. The technology used is Muryanis distillation from Wlingi, Blitar Regency. The destroyer can change certain types of plastic waste to produce fuel. Karangtaruna Bina Hangtuah will be a reliable partner to be able to assist implementation in the field. This Serving Doctoral program aims to strengthen the capacity of Karangtaruna in Tambaan Village to be more concerned about the environmental problems of Tambaan beach by processing waste that has been polluted by plastic waste. The method of Muryanis distillation technology application processes plastic waste into BBM. The results of plastic waste treatment show that 10 kg of plastic waste that has been dried and distilled into diesel is 60%, 35% premium, and 15% kerosene.
