Abstract.
Indonesia has reached a very concerned level in the consumption of tobacco products, especially
cigarettes. Data from the Ministry of Health (2013) showed an increase in the prevalence of smokers from 27%
in 1995, increasing to 36.3%.Exposure to the cigarettes smoke can decreased 20% of folic acid levels in the body
thus causing impaired fetal growth in the uterus Need an inovative solution that can minimize the impact of
cigarette smoke.This copyright work is a product of absorbing harmful substances in cigarette smoke named
"SEMAR PINTAR": Innovative Adsorbent Substance of Hazardous Organic Compounds in Smoke Cigarette at
once us Unique Cultural Preservation. In this product there is a smoke suction device that is CPU fan ,CO
sensors to detected CO and also inserted with activated carbon from coconut shell that acts as a filter content of
harmful organic substances in cigarette smoke.The active carbon from coconut shell placed on Semar sculpture
that can reduce the concentration of various air pollutants including CO, NO, and NOx because it has good
adsorption power."SEMAR PINTAR" can absorb and convert most of the distribution of cigarette smoke into
clean air. Its unique and innovative shape can be placed anywhere and can be taken anywhere.

from the Ministry of Health (2013) showed an increase in the prevalence of smokers from 27% in 1995,

million deaths per year to about eight million per year by 2030. Smoke cigarettes contain about 4000 compounds
most of which can harm health, among others: amides, carboxylic acids, aldehydes, ketones, phenols, amines,
hydrocarbons, ether, nicotine, tar and 3,4-benzopiren, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, nitrogen oxides ,
ammonia, and sulfur [1]
