Abstract
Pyrolysis which is a technology that might become a solution for fishermen in the Jepara Coastal Village. Fish caught by fishermen can be preserved using natural ingredients that are safe and healthy, namely liquid smoke so that the fish remains fresh and safe for consumption even if it is stored for up to 3 weeks. The purpose of this activity is to provide added value economically since the fishermen can maintain high selling prices, especially when the fish they catch are abundant. With a special target, fishermen can make this natural preservative from the main ingredient which is also abundantly available in Jepara, namely coconut shell. The method of applying Appropriate Technology is divided into several stages. (1) Initial outreach to the target community by identifying fishermen's needs in preserving fish; (2) Training and practice on the use and maintenance of this technology for the production of liquid smoke. This community service activity that is a transfer of knowledge provides understanding to fishermen to use liquid smoke as a fish preservative and avoid using hazardous materials such as formaldehyde and borax. Fishermen partners in Pesisir Jepara Village have experienced increased skills and knowledge on how to make liquid smoke and how to use it on caught fish obtained from the sea. This natural preservation provides economic benefits by delaying sales but the condition of the fish is still fresh and can be consumed properly.
