The problem of oil pollution in the sea is starting to get serious attention from the public. This incident caused the mass death of various types of marine organisms. Many cases only become government records without any complete response. An example of a case is oil pollution in Seribu Island.

In this study, the design and construction of oil extraction using absorbent media in the oil waste area in the water. The purpose of this research is to design and conduct a study of the efficiency of a belt type oil skimmer using durian skin waste which is moved using a solar panel. It absorbs oil from the air which can be retrieved and collected onto the vessel by providing a piping arrangement. The collected oil can be reused for various purposes.
