The behavior of washing hands with soap is an important component to break the chain of spread and transmission of the corona virus. Antiseptic hand soap that has been circulating in the market contains chemical disinfectant ingredients as a powerful component to kill various pathogenic microorganisms including the corona virus. Frequent and long-term use of hand soap will have side effects on the skin in the area of ​​use. Eco enzyme is a product in the form of a liquid from the fermentation of organic waste from vegetables and fresh fruits. The content of eco enzyme is acetic acid (H3COOH) which can kill germs, viruses and bacteria. The selection of eco enzyme as the basic ingredient for making hand soap because it utilizes organic kitchen waste from the remnants of vegetables and fruits as well as the content of eco enzyme that can kill germs, viruses and bacteria and is environmentally friendly. This activity aims to increase public knowledge about eco enzymes and create innovative products by utilizing organic waste that functions for health and is environmentally friendly. The training method used is to provide material in lectures, discussions, demonstrations and assistance in making hand soap. The participants of the activity were people from RW 10, Keputran sub-district, Tegalsari sub-district, Surabaya, totaling 20 people. Evaluation was carried out directly at the end of the activity by discussing and seeing the results of hand washing soap production.

The study reports the alternative use of non-edible fermented olives for the production of high-quality natural soaps with a fast production process, low environmental impact, and without preliminary treatments for the raw material. Damaged olives, not used as food, were fermented naturally and the oil was extracted by mechanical extraction. The product obtained was not for human consumption due to its high acidity, but it had a low content of peroxides. The non-edible olive oil obtained and an extra virgin olive oil, produced from the same olive cultivar, were subjected to saponification with sodium hydroxide. The soaps were produced with complete (0% of non-neutralized fatty acids) and incomplete (5% of non-neutralized fatty acids) saponification; the amount of sodium hydroxide to be used was determined with the saponification index. The soaps were aged for six months by monitoring pH, color, and behavior in an aqueous solution. The results show that the olives’ fermentation improves and speeds up the soap production and maturation process since the oil obtained from fermented non-edible olives is more suitable for the saponification process than the oil obtained from non-fermented edible olives. Non-edible fermented olives can be used for obtaining natural and high-quality soaps, reusing drupes classified as food waste.

Soap is a chemical compound formed by interaction of fatty acids and metal radicals. Different types of vegetable oils have been found to be good candidates for soap production due to their saponifiable nature. However, edible oils are often expensive to use for soap production due to competing demand between commercial and domestic buyers. So, in this work, blend of nonedible neem and castor oils were used at different proportions to produce various soap samples. The foregoing was achieved via the two well-known processes of soap production, that is; the hot and cold processes. The work investigated the parameters that influence the quality of soap and determined their optimum values using various blends of the oils. Six samples were produced, and their properties analyzed and compared with two commercial samples to determine a blend with the most desirable qualities. The yield, foamability, pH, hardness and cleansing power of the produced soap samples were determined. It was found that the blend of 60 ml neem oil and 40 ml castor oil was the best with a yield of 70.4%, foamability of 11.8 cm, pH of 10.42 and a high cleansing power. The results were found to be consistent with those of the two commercial samples used as controls. Keywords: Castor, cleansing power, foamability, hardness, neem, oil, soap samples

Abstract The MEWOU river, which runs through the town of Bafoussam, is one of the main sources of drinking water and irrigation for the people who live there. It is subject to intense agricultural and industrial activity all along its banks. Soap and refined oil factories generate pollution in the form of liquid effluent which is released without any form of treatment. A total of seven samples were analyzed during the months of March, April and May of the year 2021. The results we obtained were analyzed according to the regulatory requirements recommended by the Guidelines for the quality of drinking water and the Algerian standard relating to the limit values ​​of physicochemical parameters. The results we obtained showed signs of significant pollution in particular: chemical oxygen demand (COD: 125.32-959 mg L-1), 5 days-biochemical oxygen demand (BOD5: 23-99 mg L-1), turbidity (2-520 NTU), TDS (130-13430 mg L-1), Nitrite (4.96-21327.44 mg L-1) and many other parameters greatly exceed those required by the international standard, we have also noted a strong pollution to heavy metals: chromium (35.76- 1381.08 mg L-1), lead (0.21 - 2.49 mg L-1), iron (0.28- 17.82 mg L-1), and cadmium (0 , 03-0.19 mg L-1) which are above the values ​​prescribed by the WHO. These heavily polluted effluents released into the natural environment are harmful to the environment, biodiversity and human health. This state of affairs requires urgent intervention to preserve the ecological balance. Otherwise, it can constitute a risk for public health in the short term by deteriorating the quality of the underground reservoir known as the main source of water supply for the local populations.

In this PKM program, our partner is residents in Rungkut Barata, Surabaya, East Java Province. This community has generated the production of citronella oil. However, the product only in the form of citronella oil in a simple package. Citronella oil from the refining process is one of the jobs for the people in Rungkut Barata where to improve welfare, a product diversification process is necessary. Seaweed is forms of algae that grow in the sea and has the biological activity for health. Carrageenan is the product result of seaweed extraction that have several function as thickener, emulsifier, suspension, and stabilizer. The pharmaceutical industry uses carrageenan for the manufacture of drugs, syrups, tablets, toothpaste, and shampoo. The cosmetics industry uses it as a gelling agent or binding agent. Based on interviews and observations in the field, there are 2 main focuses of the problems currently faced by partners, namely: 1) lack of knowledge about non-consumption seaweed and 2) product diversification of seaweed and citronella oil which have an added value. Some of the things planned by the PKM team are innovating citronella oil to be aromatic soap as well as providing training and mentoring for financial analysis, soap packaging and marketing. The purpose of this activity is to transfer knowledge of making soap, develop the creativity of the partner, increase the soap production and improve the welfare of the partner. This activity was realized with an approach in the form of making a sustainable cooperation program until the end of PKM, creating a family atmosphere between the two and understanding that the problems experienced were a shared problem so that they could be solved together according to the level of responsibility to achieve the expected benefits, namely increased yields, production and productivity and competitiveness, independence and welfare of the community.
