In recent years, with the progress of technology, waste plastic can be made into fuel.

There is no denying that the appearance of plastic products has brought a lot of convenience to our daily life. However, many people are worried about the disposal of waste plastics because they are difficult to degrade naturally. For example, you can see a sea of garbage, millions of tons of plastic are floating in a small area.

At present, most waste plastics are mainly disposed through landfill and incineration, but the former occupies land resources and is prone to pollute groundwater, while the latter increases carbon emissions and causes air pollution.As of 2015, about 8.3 billion metric tons of plastic products were produced, of which about 6.3 billion tons were converted into plastic waste. The problem of waste plastics has caused wide public concern all over the world.

Under this background, DOING developed and produced a waste plastic to oil machine. Waste plastic to oil machine can handle the waste plastic by high temperature, decomposition and reorganization, and then through the distillation process, get diesel, gasoline and other products.

From the waste plastic to oil machine, one kilogram of plastic yields a liter of liquid fuel containing diesel and gasoline, which account for 65 percent and 18 percent, respectively, of the various products (the rest being 10 percent non-condensable gas and 7 percent carbon).Diesel and petrol can be used directly as fuel, non-condensable gas is stored in the machine as fuel for the next production operation, and black carbon is used as industrial raw material.

Compared with the traditional plastic waste treatment methods, plastic made into fuel has many advantages, such as no prior plastic waste classification, saving manpower and material resources, Waste plastic to oil machine can also deal with a large amount of plastic waste that cannot be reused in daily life. This treatment method not only solves the pollution problem caused by waste plastic, but also provides us with new energy.
