 Technology Profile

Title:

Microwave Assisted Pyrolysis of Waste Plastic

Value Proposition:

Microwave assisted pyrolysis can rapidly heat the inside of materials, improve the heating efficiency and easily control the process temperature and its byproducts fraction i.e. char, tar/oil and gas.

Summary Application:

Prototype of eco-friendly MAP applicator for disposal of plastic waste to produce carbon black and syn-gas.

Advantages:
  • Reduce carbon footprints and economically competitive
  • Process time few tens of minutes compared to few hours in case of conventional pyrolysis (thermal/ catalytic)
  • Energy efficient than conventional method
