TH-camr NatureJab does this all the time! ❤❤
I really enjoy this longer format. It's kind of frustrating when the topic is interesting but the video only lasts a few minutes. Thanks for this
Plastic use should be limited. States should do this. It should not be left to individuals.
I don't agree that the states should be responsible. I believe that it is the companies that are creating the plastics to begin with.
They lobbied for this mess they should pay to clean it up.
no thx stalin
Colorado has a polystyrene limit in food packaging. Policies are changing slowly in the USA.
@@titanicisshit1647point taken, but we’re getting to the point of finding microplastics in our water supplies. I remember hearing about PFAS contamination in my former city of Tucson.
Isn't more accurate to title it "Converting Plastics BACK Into Oil"?
Well that doesn't earn enough clicks tho
Quite educative... I would like to know the name of the specific catalyst that was used in the chemical processing
I agree, cracking the problem of plastic waste is important. (ruthenium metal and carbon)
I'm sure all of their competitors would also like to know. 🤔
There has also been progress on using bacteria and enzymes and fungi to break down plastics.
How safe are the derived fuels? Do they work the same as fuel derived from crude oil / petroleum?
Cleaner than virgin fuels as you are getting a pure reaction product.
Good work
So oil can be created and we are told there is less fossil fuel around.. what boll ix. Its unlimited
Read a great book called
The partys over for better understanding.
Make no mistake
Most easily gotten resources have been exploited.
If you think gold 1 plus miles under ground is abundant. Start digging
Great video.
Is this method by turning these plastic bottles into pellets first?
From what I saw the biggest issue with plastic waste is the various plastics combo to the finished product , this makes seperation difficult EG. A chips packet, almost every country has csir centres dedicated to finding ways to break plastics down , in India there's a innovative way displayed in labs so not sure if it's gone commercial but that process has zero emissions , it's a bio degradable process using chemicals & organisms to absorb the carbon in plastics & the waste generated is eco friendly that can be turned into fertilizer. If only we had listened to the boffs that warned us decades ago but we allowed idiot politicians who scammed us to keep opec countries flush with Petro dollars that has brought us all to the brink of a disaster probably last seen by the earth when the dinosaurs became extinct along with much of nature then , this time it's not aliens , asteroids but us ! We really f..KD up a good thing & for what ? Printed paper that has no cosmic value ! Takeall of the world's richest wealth & put it on another planet - it does nothing , our economic model is flawed neither capitalism nor communism has been able to deliver a viable solution , if we r to ever reach that dream of star trek things have to change rapidly now.
What if throw wast plastic into the Sun
That's nothing new a Canadian Ukrainian developed a process back in the 1990s and built a plant near New York basically using plastic waste and after heat treatment 5 barrels of Plax and 2 barrels of gas . A British company tried to market their TR7000 meaning processing 7000 tonnes per annum but the company went bust after COVID 19 . You need energy something like 4MW per tonne of plastic good idea but only works if oil is above 120 dollars a barrel. The Plax oil was priced 150 dollars a barrel in 2018 .
How we safe from the side effects of this oil 🛢️
the title should be plastic converted back into petroleum
Still using energy and emits carbon. Taking all energy input from production, recycling, or building new things from old plastic, wouldnt it be more wise to use alternatives like glass and aluminium in the first place??
And what to do with all the plastic that already is a problem now ? Even if isn't an energy efficient source of fuel is better than burning it directly or, worse, throw it in landfills or the ocean.
Glass breaks and is a safety hazard. Do you use glassware to teach kids how to eat?
Glass is heavy, and would waste more energy in its handling and its transport. And lets remember being brittle, glass needs sufficient material to pad their rattling and stay apart from each other, causing less volume. Not only are glassware thicker than a plastic bottle wall thickness, they need to be spaced apart too. A lorry that couldve carried a million drinks normally would only be carrying a few hundred thousands if the drinks were packed in glass. More trucks on the road to satisfy the same demand.
Glass needs high temperature to remelt/recycle, and will use up more energy and cause more emissions.
Aluminium needs higher temp than plastic to process too. Cannot be injection moulded and needs really expensive machinery to forge into shape.
Aluminium is also expensive.
Also too flimsy when thing to wrap food as bags, unlike plastic bags that actually get tougher when you stretch it (up to a limit).
Its easy to shoot out suggestions and pretend to be smart, but its clear you have never really given any meaningful thought to the stuff youre saying. I immediately formed these arguments against glass and aluminium as soon as I read your idea.
Go brainstorm a new idea for material to replace plastics. Lower your ego, and play as a critic against your own ideas. Otherwise you would be churning out half baked ideas and have it be ridiculed so easily
@@de0509 I was raised using glassware. A cup or two have been broken, but eventually me and my sister learned not only how to avoid it but also how to deal with the shards when it happened. But then again children nowadays are made of snow flakes, apparently.
@@de0509 I posted open ended question, not solution. You suggested for me to think things thru(which is valid), but then you said that you formed your opinion immediately after reading mine. Kind of hypocricy.
What about all the plastic that ends up in the environment? Microolastic? Plastic killing wildlife on the ground and in water?
There are problems with all materials. The bigger problem is overconsumption. Why we dont carry our own reusable bottles? Conveniemce is killing us. Want caffeinated sugary drink? Take Hot coffee with you in thermos.
I will brainstorm, wishing you to do the same.
what we need our appliances that people can buy and put their plastic waste in it and turn it into fuel for their vehicles. fo course the corporations won't allow that to happen
I want a car engine that runs on plastic. You can use the heat of the engine to start the chemical reaction.
Why blaming the consumer when those giant profit mongering companies are still producing them when they are already alternative for it. It's all about sustaining oil and gas companies that's literally still supporting plastics.
Stop making everything out of plastic 🤷♂️
Exactly!
Make a better product and you’ll be a billionaire.
@@Grasshopper.80 it's called glass 🤦♂️ you know that stuff we used in the past but greedy people wanted to make more money for a bigger boat.
@@justinh2701 oh yeah I forgot about glass. Stupid me.
Why this video sounds just like the Western plastic companies old rap of putting the responsibility (and blame) of plastic pollution on the consumer?
Nope, this is industry taking responsibility, NOT the consumer.
Dechlorinization....that discarded chlorine is gonna go somewhere
Just ad 10 times as much energy as you will get out of it. And how much CO2 are you producing. Why not let nature return it to our environment to promote life.
Oil company propaganda comment. No, plastic is full of energy, you only need to add a fraction of the contained energy to get back a surplus of energy. And the whole idea is to avoid burning the plastic, so hardly any CO2 is released this way.
And subtract the 10 times again im long run of utilizing nuclear-generated power.😂
Don't say nuclear is dangerous therefore we must use solar bla bla bla. If that the case, please return to nomadic way of hunter gatherer society.
We have many sources of waste that can be used for energy.
@@dasgerbil5189 Solaris 10 times more dangerous than nuclear look at all over the toxic heavy metals that they are dumping into our envivomen to produce wind turbine and solar panels!
@@curtisnixon5313 watch some of the videos and see how much wood they burn in the process. You could drive 10 times as far on the smoke from that wood if you built a gasification system, My nefue is the engineer on a large communal farm in North Decora end theypower the entire farm including the equipment from gassafied crop waste and wood chips.
Until you want to discuss China's and the rest of Asia's involvement into the plastic pollution problem I don't need to waste my time with you.
Yeah that's it: until the whole world agrees in one voice to solve a given problem at exactly the same time, we mustn't even consider doing something about it at all. Good thinking, very cleaver indeed.
