Cooking oil is an important basic ingredient in the frying process with the main function as a heat conductor, adding savory taste, increasing nutritional value, and heat of foodstuffs. If cooking oil is used many times it becomes less good for consumption, this is because the fatty acids contained will be more saturated and will change color Used cooking oil that has been used is called used cooking oil. Used cooking oil is oil that has been used more than two or three times frying, and is categorized as waste because it can damage the environment and can cause a number of diseases. So the use of used cooking oil is carried out by reprocessing it for the manufacture of solid soap.

Along with the current developments, electricity has become a basic need that must be required. With population growth, economic development, and an increase in various activities and the use of facilities that require electricity, the use of electrical energy will continue to increase even in the use of lights as lighting in offices. The expected purpose of this study is to examine the efficiency of energy use as office lighting for one of the fertilizer industries before and after using LED lights, as well as analyze the costs incurred and the economic value obtained from the use of LED lamps. In this study, several data are needed, such as building plan data, inventory of the types of lamps used, electrical energy consumption, and the price of electricity consumption per kWh through the calculation method. The difference in costs incurred for the use of non-LED lamps into LED lamps is IDR 580,931.14 in the 1st-floor office building in one of the fertilizer industries and IDR 319,747.56 in the 2nd-floor office building in one of the fertilizer industries. Based on this, the difference in costs incurred is very large, so the use of LED lamps is the main alternative in saving energy and costs. Therefore, it is important to conduct studies and research on the impact that can be caused by the use of LED lights on energy consumption and electricity cost efficiency in the company.    

The development of welding technology in this era took place rapidly, especially in the sector of new ship building and ship construction repair. Incorrect welding activities often cause delays which cause costs, time and consumables losses. In order to develop the speed and efficiency of the welding work, it is mandatory to determine a welding method that is suitable for the site conditions. This study provides a choice of three welding methods consisting of the SMAW and FCAW welding methods based on their strength and economic value. To strengthen the results of welding can be tested with a destructive test consisting of a tensile test, bending test and impact test. Next, the calculation of the welding cost per kg, welding speed per meter and electrode consumption is carried out to find out the difference in the economic value of all the welding materials. When tested, it was found that there was no difference in tensile strength between SMAW and FCAW. Welding method, maximum 1%, but SMAW welding method has 4% better yield strength than FCAW welding method. The ductility value of the FCAW welding method is 34% better than the SMAW welding method. The FCAW welding method has 67% better economic value when compared to the SMAW welding method. The FCAW welding method has a speed of 72% better than the SMAW welding method, and the FCAW welding method is 50% more efficient than the SMAW welding method.
