It's a Japanese invention can recycle the plastic into fuel
Bashny.Net
The Japanese inventor, Professor Akinori ito has created a home device that converts plastic bags into fuel for space heating or fueling vehicles.
According to the world organization "World Counts", every year humanity produces about 100 million tonnes of plastic, of which 10% end up in the oceans. This plastic ends up in the stomachs of fish, birds and animals, poisons our land and water.
Reflect on the solution to this problem, ito realized that since plastic bags are created from oil, they obviously can be converted back to their original form. Obtained from used packages, raw materials, can be used as fuel for generators, cars, boats or motorcycles.
As a result, the engineer managed to create a machine that from 1 kg of plastic makes about 1 liter of fuel. And the process of this transformation requires only 1 kWh of electricity.
His unit is designed specifically for domestic use – ito wanted to make a car that would provide for any ordinary person at least a partial fuel independence from oil companies.
Machine that converts plastic into fuel, uses the process of pyrolysis, which is using high temperature destroys complex chemical compounds, transforming them into simple. It is able to process polyethylene, polystyrene and polypropylene (but not in the form of PET bottles).
The process starts with heating the plastic. The plastic mass is loaded into a vacuum furnace where it is heated to a temperature of 427 °C, translating into a liquid and then to gaseous. These vapors are cooled, and condensate are deposited on a special catcher. This will be the resulting fuel consisting of a mixture of gasoline, diesel fuel, kerosene and fuel oil. When the car is in the process of its production does not produce any toxic substances.
Unfortunately, while the price of this unit is quite high — $ 10000. But Professor Akinori ito is working to reduce it several times. After receiving many bids, he wants to make his car available to everyone.
P. S. And remember, only by changing their consumption — together we change the world! ©
