Technology
The innovation converts plastic waste into fuel through pyrolysis, offering an eco-friendly disposal option and an alternative fuel source. The portable models process 0.5–1 kg of plastic, while stationary machines can handle 7–10 kg. White polythene yields 600–700 ml of fuel per kg, plastic containers yield 500–600 ml, and water bottles yield 300–400 ml.
Societal Impact
The innovator has used the fuel in his jeep and in place of petrol in engines, generators, grass cutters, and motorbikes. There is an emerging market with demand from various individuals and states for pollution-controlling innovations.
Current status
One machine has been installed in Ziro Arunachal, and other orders are being fulfilled. He is an incubatee under the community-led landscape management project undertaken by the Basin Development Authority.
