This research was conducted at PT PLN Nusantara Power UP Paiton, one of the largest coal-fired power plants (PLTU) in Indonesia, which focuses on reducing the generation of hazardous and toxic oil waste through the implementation of an oil purification system. The use of large amounts of lubricating oil in the Electro-Hydraulic System (EHS) has the potential to produce high amounts of used oil waste. To address this, the company implemented two main technologies, namely Water Content and Varnish Removal, which function to reduce water content and varnish layers so that the oil can be reused without reducing engine performance. This research used a quantitative descriptive method with data collection techniques through field observations, interviews, and operational documentation from 2021 to 2024. The results showed that the oil purification system was able to reduce hazardous and toxic waste generation by 11.46 tons over four years. In addition to providing environmental benefits, the implementation of this system also resulted in savings in oil waste costs of approximately Rp6,200,560,000. Technically, purification maintains engine performance by reducing water and varnish content, while from an environmental perspective, this activity supports the principle of reduce in hazardous and toxic waste management. Overall, the oil purification system has proven effective in improving operational efficiency, extending oil life, and supporting sustainable waste management for industrial operations.
