Project Summary
Pyrolysis is a thermal cracking reaction of the large molecular weight polymer carbon chains under an oxygen free environment and produces small molecular weight molecules.
Waste plastic disposal and excessive use of fossil fuels have caused environment concerns in the world. Both plastics and petroleum derived fuels are hydrocarbons that contain the elements of carbon and hydrogen. The difference between them is that plastic molecules have longer carbon chains than those in LPG, petrol, and diesel fuels. Therefore, it is possible to convert waste plastic into fuels.
In this project we use the mineral water bottle plastic to convert it into the fuel through the help of catalyst and automated system.
Project Objectives
This main objective of this project is to convert the pet bottle plastic into fuel in the presence of the catalyst under an automated process.
The main goal of this project is to minimize the plastic pollution.
The main objectives of this study were to understand and optimize the processes of plastic pyrolysis for maximizing the diesel range products, and to design a continuous pyrolysis apparatus as a semi-scale commercial plant.
Project Implementation Method
The pyrolysis of plastic acquire few main steps which are:
1. Checking the quality and quantity of the polymer.
2. Crushing that polymer in small size.
3. Melting that polymer
4. Condensimg of the polymer.
5. Polymerization
6. Fuel
Benefits of the Project
The main goal of this project is to minimize the plastic pollution.
We also provide the amount to the seller accorrdingly to the quality and quantity of the plastic.
The technology helps to save land resources by utilizing waste plastics to generate valuable energy. Currently, a majority of the waste plastic is land filled and it is not sustainable because waste plastic takes very long time to decay.
Technical Details of Final Deliverable
1. Amount is given to the seller according to the quality and quantity of the plastic.
2. Plastic Pollution will be minimized.
3. An economical & affordable fuel.
