Pyrolysis Method

This study aims to evaluate the performance of gasoline engines using pure fuel (pertalite) with plastic pyrolysis oil (PPO) fuel from low-density polyethylene (LDPE) plastic waste. The test was carried out on a four stroke, single cylinder test bed machine. The research begins with the manufacture of fuel from low-density polyethylene (LDPE) plastic waste using the pyrolysis method. The performance parameters evaluated are torque, power and specific fuel consumption (BSFC). The results of the test show that the engine performance using LDPE type plastic waste fuel is relatively lower than pertalite. However, the consumption of LDPE fuel is lower than pertalite.

Test Engine

This paper presents further investigation into the effect of over-expansion cycle with late-closing of intake valves on the engine performance in gasoline engines. A larger single-cylinder test engine with the stroke volume of 650 cc was used with four kinds of expansion ratio (geometrical compression ratio) from 10 to 25 and four sets of intake valve closure (I.V.C.) timings from 0 to 110 deg C.A. ABDC. Late-closing has an effect of decreasing the pumping work due to the reduction of intake vacuum, althogh higher expansion ratio increases the friction work due to the average cylinder pressure level. Combining the higher expansion ratio with the late-closing determines the mechanical efficiency on the basis of these two contrastive effects. The indicated thermal efficiency is mostly determined by the expansion ratio and little affected by the nominal compression ratio. The value of the indicated thermal efficiency reaches to 48% at most which is almost comparable with the value of diesel engines. The improvement of both indicated and brake thermal efficiency reaches to 16% which is much higher than ever reported by the authors. A simple thermodynamic calculation could successfully explain the behavior of the indicated thermal efficiency. The brake thermal efficiency could also be improved due to the increase in both mechanical and indicated efficiencies.

Industry Practice

Infusing plastic waste to concrete and masonry structures is an increasingly common industry practice that has the potential to create an environment-friendly material that can improve some of the material’s properties, craft a novel means to repurpose plastic waste, and reduce the need for mining aggregates in the environment. This concept has been studied extensively in different forms of concrete, as shown by several studies; however, there is a dearth of studies focusing on the incorporation plastic waste in concrete hollow blocks (CHB). In this study, we aim to fill that gap by investigating on the effects of incorporating low-density polyethylene (LDPE), a commonly used plastic material, to CHB on its compressive strength and bulk density. Samples of varying percentages of LDPE replacement by volume (0, 10, 20, 30 and 40%) were fabricated and tested. Results showed a general trend of decreasing compressive strength and bulk density upon increasing the amount of LDPE pellets in CHB, which was also observed in previous studies. However, the compressive strength of CHB increased at 10% LDPE replacement, a result similar to a previous study. It was inferred that the strength of the plastic material could have a direct contribution to the compressive strength of CHB at low percentage of aggregate replacement. Statistical analysis showed that the mix with 10% LDPE pellets as replacement to sand was the best among the samples tested. It was shown that CHB infused with LDPE pellets has a higher compressive strength than what is normally used in the Philippines. It was concluded that based on compressive strength and bulk density, LDPE pellets is a viable material to use as partial replacement to sand in non-load bearing CHB.

Penggunaan plastik akan semakin meningkat seiring dengan bertambahnya jumlah populasi penduduk dan meningkatnya perkembangan teknologi. Meningkatnya sampah plastik menjadi masalah besar bagi kehidupan dan ekosistem, Karena plastik sulit terurai di dalam tanah dan membutuhkan waktu yang lama untuk dapat terurai. Dengan  adanya permasalahan tentang banyaknya sampah plastik yang sulit di uraikan  maka dapat dilakukan dengan metode pirolisis, metode pirolisis adalah proses pemanasan sampah plastik dengan menggunakan sedikit oksigen atau tanpa oksigen di dalamnya. Untuk memperbaiki minyak hasil pirolisis maka ditambahkan katalis sebagai katalisator sehingga memperoleh hasil minyak pirolisis lebih baik. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui perbedaan minyak PET (polyethylene terephthalate) dan PP (polypropylene), untuk membandingkan hasil pirolisis dari penggunaan katalis dan tidak menggunakan katalis terhadap viskositas minyak yang dihasilkan,  serta pengaruh waktu pemanasan terhadap hasil volume minyak pirolisis. Dari penelitian yang dilakukan didapatkan hasil minyak terbanyak dengan bahan plastik PP dengan katalis 33 ml atau 8,46 %,  PET katalis 23 ml atau 8,943 % dan minyak PP tanpa katalis 76  ml atau 19,26 %, PET tanpa katalis 65 ml atau 17,23%. The use of plastic will increase along with the increasing population and increasing technological development. Increased plastic waste is a big problem for life and ecosystems, because plastic is difficult to decompose in the soil and requires a long time to be decomposed. With the problem of the amount of plastic waste that is difficult to describe, it can be done with the pyrolysis method, the pyrolysis method is the process of heating plastic waste using little or no oxygen in it. To improve the pyrolysis oil, the catalyst is added as a catalyst to obtain better pyrolysis oil results. The purpose of this study was to determine the differences in PET (polyethylene terephthalate) and PP (polypropylene) oils, to compare the results of pyrolysis from the use of catalysts and not use catalysts to the viscosity of the oil produced, as well as the effect of heating time on the results of the pyrolysis oil volume. The results of the research showed that most PP plastic catalyst oils were 33 ml or 8.46%, catalyst PET 23 ml or 8.943% and PP oil without catalyst 76 ml or 19.26%, PET without catalyst 65 ml or 17.23%.
