Omicrono invent a machine that transforms plastic bags into fuel and you can use it at home

The United Nations Organization (UN) estimates that 5 is used in the world.000 million plastic bags per year, of which 70% (3.500 million) end in nature, as in the seas that surround Spain;which is a serious problem for animals and the environment.Just as it is believed that ships could use these waste as fuel, a researcher has taken that same idea to the home.

Aky.A solution that tries to end this residue that, because of the human being, is very present in nature.It is not uncommon to walk down the street and find a plastic bag lying on the floor or seeing them in the sea while one bathes.

Plastic bags are highly polluting.This is because for its manufacture large amounts of energy are required and that they are composed of substances derived from oil, which take long to degrade a lot of time.On the other hand, the bags that have screening that can contain toxic metal waste.It should also be taken into account that they are contaminated with sunlight and end up becoming microplastics that absorb toxins that are really harmful to the environment.

Transformation into fuel

The use of these bags is comfortable and extended, and although measures are being taken against them, it is a problem that is increasingly present.Finally, the Japanese inventor realized that plastic bags, which are created from oil derivatives, can return to their original form with a pioneering process.

The operation of the machine is somewhat complex.This device uses high efficiency pyrolysis, a method that consists of using high temperatures to transform a compound into a smaller and simplest.A safe use device that also has the ability to process other types of plastics, such as polystyrene or polyethylene;although not the PET bottles (polyethylene terephthalate).

The process of converting plastic bags into fuel begins by opening the device lid and entering the waste.Then, they heat up and subsequently introduce themselves into a pressurized oven without oxygen.There they get back to 427 º C to convert it into liquid plastic, which the machine later transforms into a gaseous state.

The gas that occurs catches and stored for cooling, while steam condenses when cold oil is cold and form.Akinori Ito discovered that such oil produced by the machine is a mixture of gasoline, diesel, heavy and heavy fuel.An element that could be used to heat some stoves and generators, and serve as an alternative to gasoline when refine or to boost vehicles such as ships, cars or motorcycles.

Domestic use

Aky.

The inventor estimates that a kilogram of plastic can produce approximately one liter of oil, although to convert that amount about 1 kWh of electricity is needed, which is equivalent to approximately 18 cents on the invoice.In addition, it should also be taken into account that, when using the machine, it produces a small amount of inert coal waste that can be thrown into normal garbage.

Another interesting detail of this machine is that it could revolutionize the way in which plastic waste is currently treated, since converting them into fuel is eliminated by CO2 contamination.
