PLASTISTAT
Making world plastic free and giving out energy
PROBLEM
• Types of Plastic : PET, HDPE, PVC, LDPE, PP,
PS
• How much plastic waste is generated by India
annually ?
PLASTIC CONSUMPTION IN INDIA
Building
Others 8%
14% Packaging
House ware 24%
10%
Agriculture
25%
Electronics
16%
Furniture
1% Transportation
4%
• According to a 2019-2020 report by Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB)
the generates over 26,000 tones of plastic waste per day.
• From which 60% waste is recycled and 40% is cleaned, segregated and
ends up in land fill or incinerated, etc.
• Waste PVC recovered from Biomedical waste after Microwave treatment
high quality Original Products.
ELECTRONIC WASTE
• Electronic parts are
most made up of
plastic.
• WEEE (waste from
electrical and
electronic equipment
has PC, HIPS, PA, PP,
PE and PS etc.
• Plastic waste hierarchy.
• At most any plastic can be recycled at least 7 – 8.

NEED OF THIS PLANT
• Plastic waste production and consumption is increasing at an alarming rate, with
the increase of the human population, rapid economic growth, continuous
urbanization, and changes in lifestyle.
• The global plastic production was estimated at around 300 million tons per year
and is continuously increasing every year
• Plastics are made of petrochemical hydrocarbons with additives such as flame-
retardants, stabilizer, and oxidants that make it difficult to bio-degrade
• In addition, due to rapid urbanization, the land available for landfills, especially in
cities, is reducing.
• Pyrolysis is a common technique used to convert plastic waste into energy, in the
form of solid, liquid and gaseous fuels.
HELIOSTAT PLANT
PYROLYSIS OF PLASTIC
• Pyrolysis based bio refineries have great potential to convert waste such as plastic
and biomass waste into energy and other valuable products, to achieve maximum
economic and environmental benefits.
• Pyrolysis is the thermal degradation of plastic waste at different temperatures (300–
900°C), in the absence of oxygen, to produced liquid oil
• Different kinds of catalysts are used to improve the pyrolysis process of plastic
waste overall and to enhance process efficiency. Catalysts have a very critical role in
promoting process efficiency, targeting the specific reaction and reducing the
process temperature and time.
• The most extensively used catalysts are ZSM-5, zeolite, Y-zeolite, FCC, and MCM-41.
• The catalytic reaction during the pyrolysis of plastic waste on solid acid catalysts
may include cracking, oligomerization, cyclization, aromatization and isomerization
reactions
PROCESS OF PYROLYSIS
CATALYTIC HYDROTHERMAL REACTOR
• The water from the center tower is at temp. of
about 370o – 400oC and 220 bars of pressure this
is known as “Supercritical” or can be thought as
“fourth state”.
• This supercrictical water is then mixed with
decontaminated plastic waste and this converts
waste into valuable chemicals and oils.
• In this process super critical water breaks down
long hydrocarbon chain into shorter hydrocarbon
chains.
ECONOMICAL ASPECT
CURRENT PLANT UNDER R&D
COMPITION MATRIX
• About 7500 plastic recyclers in India registered and
unregistered.
• First time in India the plant which recycles the plastic
waste without using any nonrenewable resources like
coal, etc.
• Almost all plants in India recycle plastic waste into pallets,
granules & flakes but a few only do pyrolysis to make fuel
out of it.
• About 230 plastic recycling plants based in India.
FUND REQUIREMENT
• Prototype elements
• Minor works
• Waste collection.
• Transportation cost.
• Lab facility.
• Approx. costing for each element.
ADVANTAGES
• As heat and electricity is generated in Heliostat plant their is no harm to the environment.
• The temperature required for pyrolysis of plastic can easily obtained from the heliostat
plant
• By using Heliostat plant, the efficiency of the pyrolysis plant will increase.
• The sulphur content in diesel is 80 ppm whereas in case of polyfuel the sulphur content
is 0.17 ppm
• Making cost of this fuel is Rs.23-34 per litre.
• No smoke is produced after burning this fuel
• 100% plastic is recycled by this process.
• No Waste is generated in this process.
• The carbon content is also very less in this fuel
• Only 5-7% bitumen is produced which is used in making road.
DISADVANTAGES OF THIS PLANT
• The cost of setting up a Heliostat plant is very
high.
• Regular maintenance is required.
• Regular pressure and temperature regulation is
required.
ADVANTAGES TO ENVIRONMENT
• As all the plastic waste will be recycled by this process.
• Poly fuel can replace fuels.
• Less green houses gases in released in environment if not
used in land fillings.
• Marine animals will be safer.
• Less animal deaths as they will not consume the plastic.
