RECYCLING GETTING FUEL FROM USED PLASTICS
SCOPE
Being a zeroresidue, user-friendly and environment -protecting technology, It promises to gobble up plastic waste.
Plastics to Fuel technologies are expected to be particularly helpful in island nations where fuel prices are high and landfill options are limited.
Communities now have the potential to create some of their own fuel locally, providing economic and environment al benefits.
Recovering raw materials from the waste stream is the future.
With plastic consumption set to double in the next 20 years, recycling must be profitable to make a difference.
WHAT WE HAVE LEARNED FROM COUNTRIES AROUND THE WORLD
In Maharashtra’s Pune, Medha Tadpatrikar and Shirish Phadtare , achieved significant success in converting plastic waste to fuel, that too without the aid of a fancy laboratory or a scientific background. An extensive research by the two women who deducted that usable fuel could be obtained from plastics, using the mechanism of thermos-catalytic depolymerisation. Subsequently, Rudra Environmental Solutions was founded and in 2010, the first plastic to fuel conversion machine was set up in Pune.
Goa has been instrumental in converting plastic waste into fuel. Goa generates nearly 66 metric tonnes of plastic waste every day. Two plants in Goa’s Bicholim and Sonsoddo have been setup under the public private partnership (PPP) model with Bangalore-based M K Aromatics Ltd since 2016.
EXISTING PROJECTS IN INDIA In Hyderabad, the waste to energy company Ventana announced the setting up of multiple waste to fuel plants, in collaboration with Ramky Environment, a waste management service. The announcement was made in January 2017. For over a year now, 45-year-old Satish, a long-time resident of Hyderabad, has been involved in turning 'dead' plastic, into usable fuel.
Footed in the year 2007,in Indore Heera Energy System is one of the eminent names of the industry thoroughly engrossed in manufacturing a wide variety of products which include Pyrolysis Plant, Waste Plastic To Oil Plant, Light Diesel Oil Filtration Machine and many more.

QUESTIONNAIRE Question
What type of plastics can be used in the Pyrolysis process?
Response
All kinds of plastic can be recycled, but they all have different oil yielding capacity. HDPE & Medical Grade Plastic have maximum oil yield up to 80% and other plastics like PVC & PET have oil yield capacity between 50-60%. There is one more difference between these plastics, Polythenes doesn’t break easily and solidify below the temperature of 20°C, as it has paraffin. Whereas Polypropylene breaks easily and doesn’t have any paraffin so you will get liquid fuel.
Question
Is the waste plastic easily available?
Response
The plastic wastes are easily available in cities where more industries are operating. Industrial plastic wastes are cheaply available and are easily processed.
Question
What is the cost of raw material?
Response
It is available at a price of Rs 12-15/kg and the conversion cost is Rs 10.
Question
At what Price do you sell your this Oil?
Response
We will sell diesel at a price of Rs 42/l.
Question Response
So, do you sell only diesel? No, in the Pyrolysis process the oil obtained is distilled to get diesel. Also we get a byproduct that is carbon sludge. The diesel is sold to casting industries whereas carbon to cement factories.
Question
Who are your Potential buyers?
Response
Our products are mainly sold to industries like Mahindra motors, Eicher motors and VE commercials and the byproduct has many potential buyers like cement factories, road and highway developers.
Question
What is the capacity of your machine and at what price you purchased it?
Response
We have a plant capacity of 10 tonnes purchased at a price of Rs 30 lakhs.
Question
What was your experience in the initial years of setup? What challenges did you face?
Response
Just like many Pyrolysis plants in the city faced losses and shutdown their plant, we also incurred huge loss in the initial years and it was difficult for us to survive. But, we didn’t give up and adapted all the changes required to sustain in the market. We installed all the pollution control system in our campus guided by the pollution control authority. Eventually we developed a good market for our product and are now able to procure raw material at a much economical price.
Question
What Pollution control measures are required in the Plant?
Response
Look, when plastic is burned it gets converted into gas that has carbon content. The condenser cools down the temperature and converts gas into liquid. But, Some of the gas with shorter hydrocarbon length doesn’t liquefy and remain in gaseous state; This gas is released through a scrubber that absorbs the carbon content and release white smoke in the air thus controlling carbon emission in air.
INDIAN INSTITUTE OF PETROLEUM Indian Institute of Petroleum is one of the leading constituent laboratories of the Council of Scientific & Industrial Research. Established in 1960, the Institute is devoted to multidisciplinary areas of research and development in the downstream sector of hydrocarbon and related industry. In 2014, IIP developed a unique process of converting plastic waste like polyethylene and polypropylene, both together accounting for 60 per cent of plastic waste, can be converted to either gasoline or diesel. IIP’s technology also received a thumbs up from the Indian Railways two years back in April 2015, when then Railway Minister Dr Harsh Vardhan announced that the Railways would set up plants to manufacture diesel from plastic, which would be used for mechanical traction.
GOVERNMENT PROVISIONS Financial assistance is given for carrying out studies on waste to energy projects, covering full costs of such studies
Tax Benefit is provided on Recycling based production and sales

ECONOMICAL BENEFITS OF RECYCLING
OBJECTIVES To establish the basis for the development and implementation of waste plastics recycling with the application of environmentally sound technologies
To raise awareness on plastic waste and its possible reuse for conversion into diesel or fuel. This could be generated and marketed at cheaper rates compared to that of the available diesel or oil in the market.
Demonstrate Integrated Approach at regional scale for recycle, recovery and safe disposal concepts.
To reduce the dependency on Gulf countries for fossil fuels, thereby contributing to the economic growth of the country.
Serve as venue for public awareness and environmental education on recycling
To promote resource conservation and green house gases.
Our Vision Is To Reduce The Dependency On Fossil Fuels And To Increase The Use Of Fuel From Plastic.
To Provide Integrated Knowledge Driven Eco Solution And Ensure Better Quality Of Life To Gen Next.

APPLICATION & FUTURE WORK
The oil produced is a substitute for furnace oil and LDO. Carbon is used by cement industry and brick kilns as a fuel for firing. Large or small scale industries can be set up to produce fuel locally at much cheaper rates directly benefiting the National economy and is also a step towards SWAACH BHARAT by recycling the waste plastic.
The obtained fuel could be utilized in diesel generators, vehicles such as tractors and also passenger vehicles such as cars.
The fuel has to be refined at the industrial establishments, based on the results of which small scale industry can be established

CONCLUSION Plastics present a major threat to today's society and environment. Though mankind has awoken to this threat and responded with developments in creating degradable bio-plastics, there is still no conclusive effort done to repair the damage already caused. In this regard, the catalytic pyrolysis studied here presents an efficient, clean and very effective means of removing the debris that we have left behind over the last several decades.
