| Summary: | "As an alternative in addressing mental health issues, aromatherapy therapy is
increasingly being adopted and practiced by the community. Aromatherapy
practice is based on the use of aromatic materials, such as natural essential oils
from plants and other aroma compounds, to improve psychological conditions and
stability. Regarding aromatherapy and organic materials, there is an opportunity
to utilize livestock waste, specifically cow dung, to create aromatherapy products.
In India, cow dung has already been processed into incense sticks or burners used
in spiritual religious activities. The concept of incense in religious rituals, as a
burned product, resembles aromatherapy and has the potential as a relaxation
product beyond its religious context. With the aim of exploring the utilization of
cow dung, the author, under the guidance of the Center for Cultural and
Environmental Product Research team form ITB, explored the possibility of using
it as a material for an incense burner. The result of this exploration is an
aromatherapy incense burner using cow dung material."
