Excerpts from ISIS Press Release 29/11/05 =

Waste Plastics into Oil
What if the mountains of plastic wastes that blight
our landscapes and beaches spewing poisons from
incinerators and landfills could be transformed
overnight into combustible gas and diesel oil. Dr.
Mae-Wan Ho =

As the price of oil and gas soar, alternative energy
sources are rapidly becoming cost-effective by
comparison. One attractive option that has emerged is
diesel oil from waste plastics. =


Chinese oil refinery used waste plastics
The first report of turning plastic wastes into oil
came in 2001 from the People=92s Daily, China=92s English
language newspaper [1]. An oil refinery in Hunan
province had succeeded in processing 30 000 tonnes of
plastic wastes into 20 000 tonnes of gasoline and
diesel oil that satisfied the provincial standards.
Wang Xu, who built the refinery in 1999, started
experimenting with waste plastic processing in the
1980s, and later teamed up with Hunan University
doctoral tutor Zeng Guangming who gave him scientific
advice on decomposing plastic wastes. This may be one
reason why China has been importing enormous amounts
of plastic wastes (=93Redemption from the plastic
wasteland=94, this series).

article minus the references.
