Members of the Community Service Implementation Team, consisting of Prof. Dr. Ir. Rosdanelli Hasibuan, M.T., Prof. Dr. Ir. Juliza Hidayati, M.T., Ir. Rivaldi Sidabutar, S.T., M.T., and Dr. Yurnaliza, S.Si., M.Si., carried out a Community Service Program in Kelambir Village, Pantai Labu District, Deli Serdang Regency.
Kelambir Village has significant potential in the fields of agriculture and tourism but lacks proper waste management systems in these sectors. The main problem faced by the village is the accumulation of waste, particularly plastic, paper, wood branches, coconut husks, and shells.
The 2024 Fostered Village Program is expected to produce commercial products such as (1) briquettes from solid waste, including plastic, paper, wood branches, coconut husks, and shells. These products are expected to become a new source of income for the people of Kelambir Village. The program is also supported by the procurement of a pyrolysis reactor and a hydraulic briquette press machine.

The processing of plastic, paper, wood branches, coconut husks, and shells can create value-added products through the application of pyrolysis technology. The waste is processed using a pyrolysis drum, producing charcoal that can be further processed into briquettes. In addition to maintaining environmental cleanliness and comfort, the resulting products can be commercialized to increase the income of local residents in Kelambir Village.
This community service activity aims to provide training for local residents and community groups in Kelambir Village on wood waste management into value-added products such as biobriquettes.
