Trash is the residue of daily human activities in solid form and has the potential to cause health hazards and hygiene sanitation. Trash is also of the major problems in big cities. Trash has negative impact on the environment, because trash can cause environmental pollution. To reduce combustible trash that can no longer be recycled and toxic chemicals, solid trash must be burned at temperatures higher than 800°C to minimize combustible and non-recyclable trash. Incineration is one of the many steps ITS has taken to fulfill its responsibility as an organization that values conservation. Because it produces little emissions, incinerating trash is one of the environmentally friendly methods of wasting management. The main burner and primary chamber, the two main parts of this incinerator machine, using used oil and water as fuel. The wet scrubber was built to covert smoke into the liquid one that have economically value. Incinerator technology is easy to use, safe to operate, and capable of destroying trash through high-temperature burning. The residue produced from the process is also safe for the environment. Using used oil and water as fuel, the incinerator has been tested and found to be functional. It takes about an hour to test this tool's ability to burn 100 kg of solid trash. As a result, the working temperature rose to 800 °C and trash was successfully converted to ash. In order to support the ITS Eco Green Campus, this machine can be used as a small-scale solid trash processing tool.
