  • Actually there is a small company here in the philippines thats been doing that for years now. Theyre turning plastics into diesel. I forgot the name of the company but i watched it in the local news. The owner said you just need the right temp.

    • Pyrolysis. Please research. It's widely used with plastics and also with used vehicle tyres. But pyrolysis is a very bad producer of greenhouse gases.. So many regulations need to be in place before its widely adapted.

  • I was expecting the "misleading" bar chart in the video depicting the world's largest plastic contributors, but we have to take into account that most waste from the West get exported to the aforementioned countries in the chart. I mean, how does the USA, a developed country, produce six times less waste than a developing country with a third of its population? Additionally, the "contributions" from Southeast Asia are more likely to increase as China has implemented its Operation National Sword, which will limit plastic exports from the West.

    @haimeshaimes@haimeshaimes4 жыл бұрын
    • The chart doesn't show the plastic waste produced by a country, but rather the amount that goes into the oceans. That's why the USA ranks rather low. Only a small amount of plastics in the oceans originates from US coasts or rivers. However the plastic that originate from asian rivers might have been from the USA originally due to trade. So the underlying problem is the lack of legislation and technology to dispose of plastics (accumulated through trade and own production) in East Asia!

  • Great video. Turning plastics to fuel is a great start which can be done on both local and large scale. Putting plastic catchments at the mouth of the most polluted rivers plus a converter next to it will stop the plastics before they enter the ocean and provide local people with basic fuels for mopeds etc. the river will act like a big collection and transport system leading down to the fuel converter.

  • 30 or 35 years ago, I had an American professor who taught “pollution monitoring in groundwater” and he said that the big problem is when we transform one pollution into a worse one. Look at common plastic: it is visible, solid and reacts little with water or air. Then, they invented “biodegradable plastic” that actually turns into “microplastics” that we don’t see, but are present in water and also in dust that can enter the lungs. Turning plastic into fuel (gasoline, diesel, jet fuel) is not ending pollution, but transforming it into something more harmful to the environment. When pyrolyzing plastic, a lot of energy is used and generally comes from polluting generators (there is no generation of energy without side effects), and what was solid and relatively inert will be transformed into CO2 and other harmful gases. And what to do with the rest of the pyrolized plastic? This professor prophetically said: the end of the world will not be through a huge nuclear explosion or a huge asteroid, but, silently buried in garbage, with no air to breathe and no water to drink.

Significant cost is in the container, so the product is cheaper. Testimony from small Asian vendor stated that when people brought their containers to be filled, and charged by weight there was no plastic in the waterway then travel sizes were sold and trash both continuously and completely covered the waterway. Bottles weren't entirely clean, so the contents went into the water. Reusable containers weren't exposed to water because more of the same would go into them.
