Running Mark 4.5 Plastic to Fuel Reactor! | Part 2

[@HenryKlausEsq.]

Julian, something to note if it hasn't been covered before: microwaved carbon can form (very) small diamonds which are useful in industrial processes. Perhaps take a look at the leftover carbon under a microscope to see if your process achieves this as a byproduct.

[@de0509]

Ofc some baffles is nice to direct the carbon somehow, but this reminds me of this Alfa Laval separator at my place. Its basically a spinning bowl with a water trap that will form a water ring when it spins. Oil cannot go past the water due to massive G forces favouring water to go outwards instead of oil. Anyways in the bowl is a liner. Just a thin sheet of stainless steel that conforms to the bowl. Other than separate water out of lube oil, it also sediments out particles with that massive G forces. So after a lot of muck has built up at the bowl, you lift the liner out to clean up easier. And the little bit of grime left on the bowl can be wiped with a cloth. Massively reduces manual labour of scraping the bowl clean from the muck. The liner can be brought out to clean in a more ergonomic setting. For parts in the pyrolyzer that doesnt touch the spinning auger thing, maybe have a liner thats just snug, but doesnt need to be welded to the vessel. Ofc, you could weld some baffles and walls to the thin liner to redirect the carbon to the hole. Thin sheet welding so might be challenging. So for a few batches, the carbon goes where it needs to, but after several batches, the cover can be removed to bring out the liner for manual cleaning. Reasonably efficient enough operation imo.

[@de0509]

Out of topic, but the bearings and balancing of that Alfa Laval is just chefs kiss. The thing takes several minutes to get to a few thousand rpm. And when you turn off, it takes a few minutes too to come to a stop. SKF deep groove ball bearings ftw.

Who is your biggest inspiration? What also sparked your interest? It’s quite amazing what you’ve done with your limited recourses. I’ll be following you on your journey. I’m excited to see this on a much larger scale.

[@Max__Pl]

Sir , you don't need that much power , with this set up you need the plastic material to be in constant motion during microwave operation time (burning stage) to get maximum efficiency, after that if the power is not enough you can add more burning power. Instead of Ice you can use a chiller ( cold water ( water cooling system low cost) good job, good project that needs more improvement to be profitable. Note: you can install microwave from the other side this ( one microwave in front of the other ) this way you will hit the plastic material from 2 sides with waves with out the need to rotate the plastic material ( I suggested rotation at the beginning) or every 30° on 1 section you can install 1 microwave this way in 1 section you will hot the plastic material from 3 sides. I like your project ❤ Good luck Hope my suggestions help you to improve your project

[@TomTheEnglishPicker]

You should see if there’s a precious plastic workspace near you. They will have shredders and maybe plastic they can’t recycle Such as pet or stuff with contamination . I recycle polypropylene and polystyrene into new plastic and this is amazing to see .

[@mercermouth7571]

Hello Julian, (kindred spirit) I'm currently working on converting abundant duckweed into [scrubbed] CH4 (Methane) anaerobic processes. Meanwhile, I am creating various bio-carbons via pyrolysis in a retrofitted "bake-off" oven. The aim is to streamline processes for incorporation in new housing developments as independent or community-based power stations. My bio-carbons are used for liquid filtration, scrubbers, and soil amelioration... I look forward to your creative developments as a source of further inspiration~

[@ALittlebitofeverything87G]

Put a bung on the bottom of the auger to allow more spent carbon to escape so your not getting too much recarbonization. You will get a better yield and cleaner product. Hope it helps.

[@Triad3DStudio]

This plastic-to-fuel reactor is genuinely remarkable and impeccably engineered! Congratulations! As for the issue you're having with carbon buildup around the exit hole, have you considered integrating a pneumatic vibrator? Given that compressed air is already part of this project, perhaps attaching a manifold at the required location and running a hose attached to the vibrator to the outer tube where the carbon enters could be beneficial. This method could have the potential to improve the extraction of carbon through the exit tube, thereby enhancing efficiency.

[@ArtVandelay16]

Nerd

[@ziggyc3004]

7:15 You will get some transfer. But a compressor is just a vapor pump. You need a cap tube, piston, or thermal expansion valve to create the compression. LNG is created at -260° so this will be a hurdle as well. You might get lucky and the increase in pressure might bring the temperature requirement down.

[@tylernelson6977]

Yes that's a very valid question.How much energy does it use compared to how much it produces.

[@TheOnegUy80]

It's almost definitely not energy-neutral, but it does address both the problems of a finite oil supply and the mountains of plastic garbage we have produced

[@inod5656]

he talked about that for one of the earlier versions he built: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pGPSc5uYqLqil9E

[@JoshuaSmithFamilyRobinson]

During the testing phase, it’s a bit irrelevant until you solve more pressing issues first

[@JoshuaSmithFamilyRobinson]

As it’s no problem to build a few solar panels onto it and produce oil which is way more useful than a bit of electricity in the high noon day sun

I’m so curious as to what size scale you would need for the mountains of plastic trash we accumulate everyday.

Why is this vid not getting views this is great content

[@datboi8966]

It must be irritating seeing all the comments saying you’re in danger.

[@jsprunger6246]

The only way this can truly be useful is if you use maybe a combination of the carbon / gas by product as a way to recycle heat the device plus some less expensive energy uses such as maybe a Solar panel/ mirrors / Or Fresnel lens heating system or heck Water powered. Overall you would get less energy in the end product running 10 High powered microwaves. But using cheap clever non Grid based heating options plus recycling the fly ash/ gas as a way to reheat would possibly make it worth doing.

[@jsprunger6246]

Benefit of the end product though is long term energy storage which is worth investing cheap energy heating options into as a seed.
