Mixed plastic waste is converted into Liquid RDF through In-Vessel Depolymerisation. Oil, Residual Carbon and Gas is generated by processing.
METHODOLOGY OF THE PROCESS
- The process is termed Random Depolymerisation. It is the degradation of bonds to breakdown of polymers into monomers randomly
- The process is carried out in a special designed vessel in absence of oxygen & in the presence of certain catalytic addictives
- This process is utilized for the degradation of plastic to lower hydrocarbons
- There are no affluents in the process, the water used in this process is recyclable.
- The oil is fed into the engine to generate power for sale.
- The gas generated in the process is rich in Propane, Butane, Mathane, Carbom monoxide and Hydrogen is reused in the process for heating the depolymerisation vessel
- The residual carbon is used for landfills or sent to cement plants
- Initially the plant runs on LPG and diesel to start up
- Once the process is underway and the gas in generated within the process, external source of energy is disconnected and the plant is self sufficient
