Abstract

More than 70% of the plastic wastes come out the packing materials. This causes heart problems and cancer too in the later stages. The plastics started to blend in drinking water in a major percentage. Recycling of the existing waste plastic is the only major way so that we can reduce this harmfulness to the globe. Here we have made use of polythene which plays a part of 33.5 percentage of the total plastic waste and is the highest waste among them. These wastes are mechanically separated and converted to plastic oil through pyrolysis. These oils are blended with the existing diesel in about 6 to 12 percentage for conversion to biodiesel and tested on a single cylinder four-stroke diesel engine for its performance. The exhaust gas which comes out is tested for its emissions and compared with diesel specific fuel consumption (SFC) and emissions.
