Décrivez votre projet en quelques mots

Energy efficienty plastic to fuel mainly deal with conversion of waste plastics to fuels such as diesel and gasoline from simple process. This plastic are simply converted to fuel by the action of heat.

01.01 Décrivez votre projet en détail

Energy effecient plastic recycling to fuel project aims to convert discarded plastics into usable fuel by heating the plastics under high temperature in absence of oxygen causing them to breakdown into gases, oils and waxes. These byproducts can then be refined into fuels such as diesel and gasoline. This process does not only reduce plastic waste but also creates a valuable energy source from materials that could otherwise cobtribute to environmental pollution. It represents a sustainable solution towards both waste management and energy production

01.02 Quel est le problème principal que vous essayez de résoudre ?

1.To cope with the increased demand and high cost of fuels by producing commercially viable fuel from waste plastics 2. Unemployment As the project requires alot of labour throughout its processing from the collection of plastics to production step both the skilled and unskilled labourers are needed 3. Environmental pollutions ( air pollution due to burning of plastics, water pollution and land degradation) 4. Fluctuation of oil prices as a result of exchange rate fluctuations
