The utilization of plastic carry bags in our modern life is increasing every year and also increasing pressure on safe disposal of these bags. Worldwide the disposal of these kinds of plastic wastes is becoming serious issue due to their non-degradable nature. The main aim of this study is to exploit the potential of waste plastic carry bags for the production of plastic crude oil by using non-electric pyrolytic unit. The heat required for pyrolysis process supplied from biomass gas stove and coconut shell used as combustible fuel. To optimize the heating conditions for higher plastic crude oil recovery, different quantities of coconut shell were utilized and the maximum recovery of plastic crude oil was recorded. The yield of crude oil ranged from 34.5 to 40.7 per cent for the reaction temperature ranged from 457 to 517 °C. For 4 kg fuel supplied as heating source, the crude oil recovered was 40.7 per cent at a reaction temperature of 486 oC and residence time of 58 min. The calorific value of the waste plastic carry bags and plastic crude oil was found to be 34.4 and 38.6 MJ/kg, respectively.

Crude oil consumption has increased since the discovery of crude oil-fueled engine technology. However, the increase in crude oil consumption is not offset by the productivity of the product. This results in a reduced availability of crude oil. One solution found was to use alternative fuels from vegetable oils. Several researches have proven that vegetable oils can be used as fuel. The results of the research found potential in jatropha oil and palm oil. However, jatropha oil and palm oil contain glycerol compounds which can affect the results of its combustion, because glycerol can absorb heat and result in firing more difficult. Based on that, modification and development are needed to support the use of jatropha oil and palm oil as alternative fuels by studying oil polarity and adding catalysts for coconut shell-activated carbon. Jatropha oil has low polarity (C18) which is more volatile than palm oil which has high polarity (C13). The variation used in this research is the addition of activated carbon with a concentration of 0 ppm, 200 ppm, and 400 ppm in each oil. The addition of activated carbon will facilitate evaporation because oil molecules become more reactive more freely.

This paper investigates factors affecting Vietnam’s stock prices including US stock prices, foreign exchange rates, gold prices and crude oil prices. Using the daily data from 2005 to 2012, the results indicate that Vietnam’s stock prices are influenced by crude oil prices. In addition, Vietnam’s stock prices are also affected significantly by US stock prices, and foreign exchange rates over the period before the 2008 Global Financial Crisis. There is evidence that Vietnam’s stock prices are highly correlated with US stock prices, foreign exchange rates and gold prices for the same period. Furthermore, Vietnam’s stock prices were cointegrated with US stock prices both before and after the crisis, and with foreign exchange rates, gold prices and crude oil prices only during and after the crisis.
