Actually there is a small company here in the philippines thats been doing that for years now. Theyre turning plastics into diesel. I forgot the name of the company but i watched it in the local news. The owner said you just need the right temp.
Pyrolysis. Please research. It's widely used with plastics and also with used vehicle tyres. But pyrolysis is a very bad producer of greenhouse gases.. So many regulations need to be in place before its widely adapted.
@@MrDileepkoppu oh. So thats what its called. Thankz
At least he’s giving the story more coverage instead of it being a silly article.
dileep koppu reckon it will still work if it’s done outside of earth’s atmosphere? eg Mars, the Moon, in space etc
@@istoleurfaceha3527 what the hell?
The problem with the 2010 graphic of polluting countries is that most of our western waste gets exported to them. Also China banned the import of waste last year, which lead to more exports to Indonesia etc.
If by countries you mean China then yes. The other countries, not so much. So please stop with the misinformation.

@@dimitriszacharioudakis8332 I just looked back at the data and the exports waste exports to Malaysia went on 3x the amount from 2017 to 2018. This exported waste vastly surpasses the rate at which the country itself is producing waste. It gets sent there by big industry nations like the US, EU, etc. It gets send there to be "recycled" but the country doesn't have the capacity or technology to process the vast amount of trash. China banned trash imports, which has lead to other countries taking it's place. Not sure what you're talking about "missinformation".

@@LoggeL you right on the spot. Exactly thats how it is done. China close the borders to import this plastic from Europe, USA and other Western World Coumtries, so what they're doing, go somewhere else to unload our waste product and the Western World blame this countries that they should do something. It's insane blame others what we doesen't see anymore in front of our eyes. Out of your eyes, out of your sin.
US discovers plastic can be turned into oil, invades Great Pacific garbage patch.
When I cook I never use oil in case my kitchen gets accused of terrorism, invaded, destroyed and then occupied.
It stills gives me weird pleasure knowing oil prices will never sky rocket in the states.
@@sameerhinduja7357 They likely never will again simply due to the fact that the increase in demand is falling and the demand itself will likely fall within a few years while production remains very high.

In India a professor from IIT Madras has established a company which turns plastic into petrol at 60% of the industrial cost and selling it to the local industries.
Who dat
would like to know more about that..
@@gokuldas027
A mechanical engineer professor Satish Kumar aims to solve environment's biggest problem. He has converted 50 tonnes of non-biodegradable plastic into petrol. He is supplying this petrol to small and medium enterprises for Rs. 40 per liter which is almost half the price of the actual commercial petrol.

How about those friends who are fake and plastic? Can we use them as fuel?
Hah Hah!
I don't know about fuel, but they are really nice propellant. You just push them away and use momentum to travel through life.
most certainly kkk
Who hurt you?
well simply jump on their back and yell: chop chop!!!
I think a major concern in converting waste plastics into useable products like fuels is the amount of energy needed to do the conversion. So the question is if there is enough of a net gain in energy output to make it economically viable.
طالما الشمس موجودة لا تقلق من مصدر الطاقة يا عزيزي
A Canadian company called Cielo Waste Solution Corp (CWSFF) is already doing this. Turning almost everything except dirt, glass and metal into renewable fuel. Small company that needs attention/support.
Turning plastic to fuel was already a thing in the 2000s. Just that recycling companies sending them off to China was much cheaper.
This. lol
I remember Bill Nye did a segment talking about how a man turned rubber back to fuel
Ok work out a way to do it more cost effectively...
When the cost of creating fuel from plastics becomes cheaper than pumping from wells, China will have an endless repository of recyclable fuel.

Surely the priority should be collecting the flotsam floating down the to mouth of those 10 rivers and turn it into fuel near the source
I love the way they r cleaning up and using plastic trash...congrats
You're thinking like a production manager... are you a production manager?
you are a visionary
The priority should be banning all single-use plastics that aren't completely necessary and crack down on littering.
The video simplified that there are many types of plastics, some of them you can not turn into fuel or they will disrupt the process of turning plastics into fuel. So a sorting job needs to be done before the plant can turn plastics into fuel.
On a similar line of thought. I work for a company that recycles tires into fuels, gases and carbon black. We recycle the entire tire. With our system we are currently recycling 1000 to 1500 pounds an hour of shredded tire. A similar large-scale system should be able to handle other types of plastics.

Sad to see, Bangladesh is contributing more plastic wastes even more than the US.
A scientist from here 🇧🇩 has invented a way to produce bags from jute what is disposable and looks exactly like plastic bag. Sad thing is that we are still not seeing any commercial use of that. Our government should ban plastic bags and promote jute bag
Jude was always used historically
Hi, can you please give me some more details about this new product? Thanks.
I have another data about it, UE and US make all that waste then export to China, Bangladesh or other "3rd world" country
Update : Bangladesh has finally started jute bag commercially which is same as Plastic bag
Moyukh Monsoor please search on google jute plastic bag Bangladesh
love this channel! Thank you cold fusion dude - you do such a great job covering these topics, i am very grateful to you
I really get emotional when I see/hear about sea pollution. IDK why but saving the fish is a matter that gets me a lot.
It's a damn shame man
Agreed, instead of throwing hundreds of billions (worldwide) at macking wind turbines, we should be spending much more money on cleaning up the oceans and beaches and educating Asian countries about being cleaner with their rubbish.
I know, I love eating fish so much. Getting plastic in my gut is probably gonna result in early death. Damn Oil corporation stealing my lifespan.
I'm right there with you. It makes me so upset.
Fish have tons of mercury in them because of pollution, it doesn't happen naturally
Why would someone dislike such a video?!
Great Job Dagogo!!!
Hum...those who produce jet fuel?
Cool
Thank you for the good reporting as always Dagogo!
Dagogo, it's great to see you using your influence to promote this important issue and move the discussion on this technological issue closer to the mainstream, thanks!
Another beautiful video. Thanks so much for the hope and motivation you give :D
"our technology has the potential to..." - interpretation: its not practical and there's something that we don't tell you like costs etc.
Thats what they said about computers. Good things come with patience.

@Raffy this. That's what I remember as well.
@Raffy Well, actually, if you always worry about the future, then you do nothing.
I mean, instead of worrying about if it's slow, they must have started in 2010 or 2015, then, for sure, they'd solved a big part of the problem!
@Raffy Still the same applies, if they had started January 2019, don't you think they'd have made a great progress til today? Almost one full year!

Hi Dagogo my name is Jesse waweru from Nairobi, Kenya. I am a huge fan of your channel and i wanted to say thank you for just being able to expand my knowledge of the world from A.I, Blockchain, how big series and all the different categories you touch on. I really love it.
I loved the video and I was humbly requesting for a deeper video if possible of the current issues in climate change especially after the recent burning of thew amazon forest and the reduction of ice and glaciers in greenland and Iceland. Also " who controls our money" and also has there been any developing stories or significant improvements on blockchain and stem cell usage for curing diseases like Alzheimer.
How much energy is "gained" by recycling the plastic as fuel? It seems like incineration with extra steps.
Regardless of whether energy is lost in the process, the important takeaway is that we are removing ocean plastics, microplastics and thus protecting our selves, our future generations and wildlife from consuming and bio-accumulating toxins like BPA.
@@itsover9008 I think there's enough plastic trash around to keep the pyrolysis industry going for a few years, so the financial potential should hopefully drive these entrepreneurs to clean up our planet asap! We can only hope...
More 'recovered' than gained. Synth-diesel is 66% cleaner burning than fossil fuels, and the gas produced in the process is fed back into the plant to heat the plastic, so no escape into the atmosphere, The small amount of hard 'char' that is left can be used in building materials.
@@robjworkshop5692 what is the char made up of?
7:18 Anyone else notice the "1 October 2019" publish date on a 21 August 2019 video? Am I missing something?

Great video. Turning plastics to fuel is a great start which can be done on both local and large scale. Putting plastic catchments at the mouth of the most polluted rivers plus a converter next to it will stop the plastics before they enter the ocean and provide local people with basic fuels for mopeds etc. the river will act like a big collection and transport system leading down to the fuel converter.
Really Made me cry ! What we have done to this earth ...at least this can help to recover a little bit .... You made my day today ..love from Pakistan
Wow, the United States and Canada should top that list of the countries with the biggest plastic output. They send most of their plastic waste in the developing countries. Thought you should mention that in your video.
Replace coal plant with with nuclear, solar, hydro, wind. -> turn plastic into fuel -> use fuel to make more alterative energy sources repeat from step 2
Have everyone forgotten the briliant plant hemp, it is a extremly stong plant, it can be used to make everything from clothes to bridges. it is the thing that plastic companies made to get banned so thay could get ahead but was the most clean and greatest thing

Why is making jet fuel better than incinerating plastic for electricity?
Plastic is one of those topics that gets swamped by green washing. So it's useful to look into the current efficiencies of the traditional and alternative production methods, as well as the theoretical efficiencies that could be achieved in future (like practical engineering with his hydrogen vs electric vs gas/diesel vids)
Why not do both?
Using hydrogen in cars is a very energey intense exercise and also very difficult to do on a grand scale.
@@dougie8010 why not put solar everywhere? Because it doesn't always make sense. So the interesting question is where does it make sense.
@@dougie8010 I wasn't asking about hydrogen, I was referring to the channel "practical engineering" who does great videos (ie hydrogen).
It probably isn't any better than incinerating plastic for electricity lol
Plus, we already have the technology to burn plastic for fuel and filter out all the toxic gases.
Best ad placement ever. Video says "let's look at the top polluters in the world" then interrupted by an SC Johnson ad.

Jokes aside, hopefully this works. *fingers crossed*
From what I understand, this onenis at least based on real, already-existent technology lol
Unlike solar roadways, tankless scuba masks, plastic roads, water condensers that don't need electricity to turn humidity into drinking water, self-filling wster bottles, the hyperloop, machines that runnel at 1/100th the coast, scanners that tell you the ingredients of your food, passenger rockets, crane-operated stone block towers that store electricity, thorium cars, real hoverboards...
Ok

I just heard about this Plastic to Fuel topic on the radio, a German scientist confirmed that this process requires a very large amount of energy, and to fuel every jet with this replacement fuel it would take at least 10 years before the process is refined enough. He proposed to develop new jet technologies rather than replacing one carbon fuel with another equally polluting.
Great video as always! You should take a look at 2 U.K. companies doing amazing things with end of life plastics. EQTEC and Powerhouse energy. Both turning plastics into energy, solving 2 problems at once. Could be another great video from Cold Fusion!
Ahem... and the cost of the fuel energy used to create the high heat to render the fuel byproduct ? Sounds like a moribund circle to me.
The energy could be produced by incinerators, so x amount of plastic is burned and y amount of plastic is turned into fuel.
I heard the idea of dropping it on a volcano. there's been a lot of ideas but they still expensive.
But it gets the plastics out of the enviroment, that's the point.
VERY IMPORTANT topic. Recycling keep it out of the oceans for a few more years, not much considering the lifespan of plastics. The best solution is not to use them. Carry a nice stainless steel water bottle or coffee mug.
I agree. What do you personally use for food storage? Upcycled glass jars, or....?
@@brightbite TF. Steel boxes obviously. As an Indian, the only food containers were made of steel when I was growing up. You can take them anywhere.

@@brightbite Yes I upcycle glass jars.

The best way to tackle a problem such as waste it to give it value.
it's possible we could use up all the resources required to make plastic, I could imagine plastic mines being dug on old landfill sites.
I have been saying that for the past 45 years (I am 52). I think we will be mining our landfills for plastics and metals in the next 20 years. I could not agree with you more!
That's just plain wrong. SO wrong
Pumping fuel will always be cheaper than making fuel from plastic.
@@aviralsinghal1274 Waste disposal companies will probably buy a machine that does it, as long as it doesn't cost too much or take up too much space. If it's cheaper than just shipping it away, it'll happen

This is a very good video. It would be a great video uf there are subtitles for the corresponding countries like chinese, vietnamese etc. So it can be shared in those countries too.
I hope all this works! Great video!
I live in Europe and you can find manufacturers like Bic here, which sell stove lighters that are made of plastic, they are pretty big too, and they have no hole to refill after the gas runs out. They just expect you to throw it away and buy a new one every time. So I've switched to matches.
I was expecting the "misleading" bar chart in the video depicting the world's largest plastic contributors, but we have to take into account that most waste from the West get exported to the aforementioned countries in the chart. I mean, how does the USA, a developed country, produce six times less waste than a developing country with a third of its population? Additionally, the "contributions" from Southeast Asia are more likely to increase as China has implemented its Operation National Sword, which will limit plastic exports from the West.
The chart doesn't show the plastic waste produced by a country, but rather the amount that goes into the oceans. That's why the USA ranks rather low. Only a small amount of plastics in the oceans originates from US coasts or rivers. However the plastic that originate from asian rivers might have been from the USA originally due to trade. So the underlying problem is the lack of legislation and technology to dispose of plastics (accumulated through trade and own production) in East Asia!
Wow! Can you guys do more videos about recycling plastics?
thanks for the video, ive been snorkelling this summer on the Costablanca beach in Spain (very turistic area) and at the beginning i was going with friends to have fun and swim but,everytime we went snorkel watching all the plastic under the water and on the beach we started to go daily and pick up everything we gould from the water. It doenst help that much but i guess people who saw us coming out of the water hand full of bags of plastic they thought about the issue, mnost shoking things ive seen are the animals eating this gabs, cans, cartons, cigarrets and many more things just as on this video, truelly disturbing when u see how much damage we can do to this planet if we continue this way.
Anyway good video sir thank you!

So you make fuel out of plastic, and then use it by burning it.
It's a lose lose situation.
Better than it floating around in the ocean.
not as much oil extracted.
Why is it lose lose? They are still gonna spend billions extracting oil from ocean beds anyway. Might as well reuse the waste plastic as fuel and get some of the plastic out of the oceans. Its not a perfect solution no doubt but still a very useful one.
It's not lose lose if it's needed. We haven't yet eliminated airplanes and airplanes aren't going to go electric any time soon so it's worth working on.
I left a comment in another video about "the loss of sand". This seems to compliment it, but if I am totally wrong and hadn't, I recommend you do. It is an interesting topic
Great work.
So instead of letting it destroy the environment by leaving it in the ground and ocean, we’re going to let it destroy the environment by burning it? Lol
Why aren’t we funding this in a global scale
Because there's no global government. Also even if scalable, it's not clear if the fuel produced is cheaper that traditional refineries (the idea being of course the recycled fuel replaced traditional production).
Its still a new discovery from what i see
The date in paper are 2019
Also, there is more money to be made in fighting global warming. Australia spends billions on trying to lower their co2 levels, resulting in skyrocketing utility costs.
The world should divert SOME of that money to cleaning up oceans.
Because muricans need to destroy the world more
Because Trump is building a wall. China is going to the moon. UK paying brexit bills.
Forgot the “c” in “clean”. Love your videos!
We need a company that takes all the plastic from every where and makes a product.
