Hi. This is beautiful from so many perspectives. People should and hopefully do know by now that the amount of garbage people produce is outrageous. Some products are packed in bags which are 3 times the size of the product they envelop. So, some kind of management of this garbage is a necessity. If there is a possibility that from the process of managing the garbage, something usable comes out, then of course, that's even better. That's what recycling is. The only ugly part, is that the comment section is filled with un-recyclable garbage. Individuals that have absolutely no environmental problem with the pollution from their vehicles, but suddenly have an environmental problem if someone implements a recycling process of garbage which emits a very considerably lower amount of pollution in comparison to their beloved four wheeled mobile pollution dispensers. They don't have ANY environmental problem with the polluting process of producing packages that turn into garbage, but they suddenly have an environmental problem with the recycling of garbage. In truth, they are the people who support one of the highest level of crookery, which is the one that sells for decades, overpriced fossil fuel and drains billions of people of their money. EXACTLY the same with the electrical vehicles production or with the photovoltaic panels production or even with the wind turbines. Those crooks always tried to scare the fools with the lie that these are the products that harm the environment. They've never had ANY problem with the production of any other products, noo, not even bullets or guns. No, because those products limit freedom, whereas recycling and solar panels and electrical vehicles grant more freedom, the freedom to be independent of what someone forces you to buy at the cost they set. Similarly with the forests. People used to use wood to keep their shelters warm and forests were forests. Now, people were _persuaded_ to choose alternatives to wood to make heat, but it's now when entire forests disappear. But you know what's nice? If you analyze them, even for just a bit, because of their life mentality and because they support what's against humanity and therefore against them very selves, they grow wider and fatter and filled with illnesses and diseases, and of course more than ever proned to blame everyone but themselves for their condition. But enough with that, garbage with garbage, and _humane_s with _humane_s. You, the one who still enjoys the beautiful picture of a better world which is instilled in your imagination, if you cannot recycle garbage, don't worry, but do you best to lower the amount of physical and mental garbage you produce, so you can better see that picture until it becomes reality. You wanted cars and honks and noise and concrete and wealth and riches, and now, seeing what they are, you want to feel the earth with your feet, you want to hear the nature, you want calmness and peace. A good sign of evolution this setting aside of what you thought you need and praising what you always had and never before embraced. Living in this world, we have the opportunity to shape it and it's shape is, always was and always will be, the reflection of what we care about. Cheers.

Rather than burning wood why not use a low boiling fraction to feed a blast burner? As a note of caution: Depending on the feed plastic you could be getting some very toxic material that will make abnormally toxic exhaust when partially burnt in a simple Diesel engine. PP and PE will give mostly alkanes and alkenes (good) PS gives styrene and other aromatics (like benzene) (less good) polyesters, nylons and polyimides will give very complex distillates (possibly worse) PVC and PTFE will make hydrochloric and hydrofluoric acid respectively and chloro(fluoro)carbons (very bad). The tar left over in the still might be toxic.

PTFE is pretty rare and you'd be able to identify it. Overheating of PTFE generates fumes of highly toxic PFIB and poses a serious health hazard to the human respiratory tract. PFIB is approximately ten times as toxic as phosgene. Inhalation of this gas can cause pulmonary edema, which can lead to death.

And yes, the leftover tar is definitely toxic and needs proper disposal (costs!)

Diesel doesn’t burn like that (it has to be heated and aspirated to burn). It probably closer to kerosine as a fraction.

In other words it would be very toxic/poisonous fumes.

You have to be careful which plastics are used. Not Vinyl, PVC, ABS, Nor Styrene. All can produce poisons such as hydrogen cyanide and other nasties. Use only PE, HDPE, LDPE, we also use PET as most of the plastic seems to be bottles, some people don't as waxes can form in the pipe and cause a blockage if used motor oil isn't used or they don't have enough of the HDPE plastics for the waxes to dissolve into, other people may have better luck sourcing the good stuff better than we. Richer plastic piles to mine. :) These plastics are very low on sulfur, PVC has the chloride which will eat the metals of your system. There were still volatiles in the demo, normally they would be aired out before use or captured in a finer, secondary process.

Let's take a look at the amount of trees he cutdown (or took from the soil) just to grow his garden, to burn fuel (wood) in order to make more refined fuel so that he can run his fancy modern gadgets, like television, wifi, youtube, ice cream maker, etc. Let's try to imagine the fuel/resource consumption that goes into tourist like you going to visit, because after all, that is what this guy wants and needs to keep the "dream alive". Then let's calculate all the people who he's "inspiring" to do the same, and try to surmise how long these wild "virgin" islands will actually remain wild, and how long before there is eventually smog, a walmart and pharmacy on each one offering "free" vaccinations to all the inhabitants and their chickens etc. Sadly these "green peace" hippies who jet set around the globe looking for unadulterated places to set up their "off grid" society and shops are often killing our planet as fast or faster then the people who live in the cities. At least the city folk all learn how to live in small spaces, and the energy they consume actually comes to them much more efficiently than most of these "pioneers" who use massive amounts of resources in order for them to have some of the same luxuries.

I'm 62, live in the Dallas, Texas area, and found myself living "off grid" this past week, but not intentionally! Due to the big ice storm and failure of the power grid, we had no electricity, no internet and many people had no running water. Lots of people were sleeping in their cars to keep warm, It was difficult to find a gas station that had fuel and the electricity to pump it. Fortunately, I was way more prepared than most, but still looking for better ways of doing things. This process of making fuel from plastic trash is intriguing, and I will be looking into it. I'm also thinking of building a simple diesel motor from melted aluminum cans.... It would be pretty cool to build a diesel generator and make my own fuel from trash....

So you could brew up a bottle of diesel from plastic waste now?

For those that are interested in trying this process for themselves there is a very good thread at Energetic Forums. It's been around for a few year and is VERY helpful. Start from the beginning, the thread evolves as people experiment and learn. And be careful, use pipes of at least an inch in diameter, no leaks, and if you are not using an inert gas like nitrogen to displace the oxygen inside the reactor, start with a lower fire gradually making it hotter so the oxygen inside is pushed out by the gasses released from the melting plastics before it reaches a critical temperature. It doesn't take too long. And use a bubbler, when it bubbles you know it is working and it keeps oxygen from being drawn back into the system. There should not be much pressure in the system, it is an easy flow. Have fun! :-) This is the link-www.energeticforum.com/forum/energetic-forum-discussion/renewable-energy/7255-how-to-turn-plastic-waste-into-diesel-fuel-cheaply Thank you to all that give support with their good thoughts and to Gypsy Journey for helping to expose these ideas to many more people than we could have.

@@grimfpv292 I think you're right that it produces some bad chemicals as a side effect, but when you consider the bad effects they are offsetting by taking plastics out of the ocean and not burning commercially produced fuel, it's likely a net benefit to the environment. Commercial fuel is very dirty and energy consuming to extract, refine and deliver. Now I think if people in a high density city tried to do this at home, then local air pollution would be a more concerning issue. Hopefully the jungle and the sunlight break down most, if not all of the harmful emissions of this small operation. I do think that it will be creative people like this who eventually help to solve our waste and energy production problems through simple inventions.
