Hey you might want to coat the inside of your reactor with silicon carbide if it wont contaminate your end product, there are a set of materials called susceptors, eg graphite, aluminum flakes and some ceramics, this could drive the temperature higher faster making your process more efficient

I’m a recently graduated chemical engineer, and I’d love to see this idea go big. Sure, it may be energy intensive, however it ultimately makes use of otherwise unusable materials. This is a brilliant project

[@naturejab]

Perfectly said, thank you!

[@elite_energies4330]

This pyrolysis process is self sustainable....therefore the energy used is taken care. As a Chemical or process engineer you should make it work....polymers to monomers very much possible.....

[@XTh3T3RMIN4T0RX]

@@elite_energies4330 I know it *could* be self sustaining, as it capitalizes on the massive energy density of the polymers. However, it is not wrong to say it is energy very intensive, as it requires a specialized system with a high energy input to receive the final output. The problem isn't the physical energy output at the end, the problem is purely the economics of it. To reasonably make it a self sustaining system, we will also need very high efficiency separation to refine the product into usable fuel. At its core, this system uses microwaves to heat the plastic, so to truly make it self sustaining as it is designed now, we will need to convert the chemical energy from the fuel product into electrical energy to power the system. As it is currently designed, this system cannot use the fuel directly as a source of heat. Ultimately, I would wager that the system is capable of being self sustaining, but there are a lot more factors that you have to consider. Will the monetary investment have a reasonable return? Will it be worth companies spending more resources to use this system in facilities? These are the things we have to ask. It takes a LOT more than the energy output being greater than the input. The cost of the reactor is only the first step as far as making a large scale system.

[@skeenan73]

Energy intensive but I though of a trillion jobs that could spawn off this plus maybe the public could get paid a little something to stop throwing plastic out. At least pre Biden gas price cards for turning in a set amount monthly

@NatureJab: 18 years old !! Damn !! I am 65 years old, and I have to say, I am impressed !! I am also a "Maker" like you. I see from the things in the background that you accumulated a reasonable entry-level tool kit. It seems like you have a decent amount of space to spread out in (always a good thing !). You also seem to have a pretty good grip on troublesome World issues. For an 18 year old kid, that in and of itself is pretty amazing. I wish my 22y.o. had the same vision and drive. Focus and perseverance !!! The "Maker spirit can be summed up in one word "Obtainium" (the opposite of unobtainium). Parts and materials that you scrounge from whatever, and wherever. I have built much of my shop from Obtainium. Jigs, benches, carts (everything in my shop has to have wheels - No dedicated footprints), and tools that were out of my budget or not available. Maker = Thinking outside the box: Looking at things from a different angle than anybody else, and creatively reaching a solution that no one has thought of. With a healthy dose of DIY (do it yourself). Obtainium is recognizing the potential in parts and materials beyond their current usage. Repurposing..... That old microwave sitting at the curb ?! PARTS !!! Or, to use an older saying: "One man's trash is another man's treasure." (unobtainium = doesn't exist, or simply not available). Old, discarded Bed frames are a free/good source of Angle-Iron. Readily found near Apartment buildings and other places tenants move out of regularly (high turnover). Great stuff for frames, workbenches, carts, and other stuff that doesn't need a whole lot of strength.

I’ve been planning on building a paralysis reactor that uses the light gases to heat and further crack the hydrocarbons but after seeing this I really like the microwave with renewable energy method of heating.

Hi. Great work you solved many of the problems. Can you try this : try to make eps concrete to coat the inside of your reactor and this way you get better insulation the way to make it is easy, you mix cement, eps recycled beads ( shredd polystyrene foam), sand and water. This concrete is very insulative and very strong you can also put a wire mesh inside it to make it stronger. can tell me how you managed to attach the microwave without loss of sealing so no oxygen gets into the reactor?

[@naturejab]

I attached the microwave through a dielectric material. A material that allows microwaves to pass through it, but is heat and pressure resistant. This, combined with a silicon gasket makes a seal between the waveguide and the reactor. Thank you for your suggestion on insulation, I will look into that!

If so, have you attempted to calculate it's energy density, or at least qualitatively compare to traditional Diesel? 2. How much energy is required to convert 1 unit of plastic into fuel? How much fuel is produced from this? If #1 is fully answered, would you be able to give a rough estimate for the total efficiency of the system (energy of factors -> energy of products) Id love to read the paper on this, however it appears the link in the description of the video is broken and does not lead anywhere. Hope this project takes off!

I don’t know if you say In the video but what is the whole cost of the pyrolysis setup and solar panels? As well as how many waste products and how easily they can be disposed. I work very closely with a charity that helps small communities struggling with lack of energy and a large amount plastic waste. A technology like this if able to be easily setup and deployed could potentially be beneficial for both. Thank you

[@naturejab]

HI, All of the potential costs are just in theory, as the reactor I show here is merely a prototype. But we can calculate the potential costs. So, the reactor runs off the same power as your typical microwave oven, 1000W. In order to power this with solar panels, you need: Minimum 2000W inverter At least 2, 100ah batteries And 2 Solar Panels With this setup, it would take about 1 hour of charge mid day before the batteries will have enough charge to get it started. Amazon actually has a kit of all of this for $2,559 - the Inverter, Solar Panels, and Batteries (if you buy it all separate it comes out to be a little over $1,000) Then the reactor itself - There's no good way to estimate the price, but considering I know all the parts and labor it takes to make one I'd say no less than $1,500 per unit - not including the maintenance items (such as replacement catalyst and filters) So overall, let's put it out there and say a whole unit with solar panels to run and maintain would cost between $2,500 - $4,000 per unit. The current capacity of this experimental reactor is around 15 Liters ( close to a 4 gal bucket) worth of plastic per batch. I do wish to expand the capacity in the future, mind you. Every batch of plastic takes around 4 hours to complete. The amount of plastic that can fit in there is also heavily dependent on the plastic. For example, bags take up a lot less space than water bottles or PET packaging, which would need to be cut up. Hope this answered your question, thanks!

[@obfuscated3090]

Neat idea but for areas without high wattage electrical supplies one can burn any fuel to do the job as Syrians do in Aleppo and elsewhere. How clean the flame is depends on the fuel and burner but no electricity required makes it more accessible, so if you can do a purely mechanical version that would help more people in isolated areas who don't have money for electricity or generators.

Even though heating the plastic with microwave / Infrared / Lasers with lambda which will be transparent to the medium n factor thus will heat it more effectively, some of the other methods I've seen in pyrolysis make more sense to me i.e. use the gas created in the process to heat up the pyrolysis chamber, this way you're using a portion of the very plastic you're trying to get rid of just for getting rid of that plastic, and you bottle up the rest and sell as natural gas for cooking.

Im an undergraduate student majoring in chemical technology, and we have this as our thesis microwave pyrolysis. I want to ask if do you think it is possible to use a domestic microwave oven (the one we use at home to heat up food) for the pyrolysis process?

It is excellent you are majoring in chemical technology! The domestic microwave oven in itself is not airtight, so it cannot be used as a Pyrolysis reactor without heavy modification. However, the domestic microwave magnetron is more than powerful enough, and what I use in my custom built Pyrolysis reactor. Thank you!
