Plant Layout
The arrangement of the equipment and machineries in the working area is
in this section. The proponents discussed the relative allocation and appropriate
places of work equipment, for working men and other activities of the proposed
business. Allocating everything in the right place is very important in a business
to provide safe and good environment not only for the employees but also to the
customers. The proposed yempolaya has a total land area of 28 square meters
to provide an adequate dimension to be able to accommodate equipment and

Raw Materials
An important part of the production process is the raw materials used to
produce goods. Finding the right type of production materials helps companies to
produce competitive goods for consumers. Using the right type of materials
ensures that companies earn the highest profitability with the least amount of
product defects or consumer complaints. The basic raw material of the proposed
business is the ampalaya.
Utilities
The business required to have electricity and water, with this two
elements, the business would not be able to operate in producing yempolaya.
Electricity under ran the machines and equipment but in case of power
interruption, generator will be used to continue the business operation. Water is
very useful in operating the business because it is used for washing the materials
used in the operation.
PROPER WASTE DISPOSAL
Waste disposal includes the actions or activities required to manage
wastes. It talks about on how garbage can be used as a valuable resource and it
ends up in the right place. When a waste is disposed in a proper way, it helps to
prevent pollution which can improve human health and to maintain the
cleanliness of the environment.
48
Proper waste disposal is essential in a business. The proposed
business will use the proper waste disposal by segregating biodegradable and
non-biodegradable. The biodegradable materials which could be recycled are
separated and sold in a junk shop.
