HiCOP Converts Plastic to Oil in Japan

@alexandraapjarova
Not sure why they can’t continue developing a safe “plastic back into oil at home” machine and sell it as a necessary household appliance like an oven or washing machine. Why did they cancel this development progress?

Quite educational. I would like to know the name of the specific catalyst that was used in the chemical processing.

From what I've seen the biggest issue with plastic waste is the various plastics used to make finished products. This makes separation difficult, so almost every country has research centers dedicated to finding ways to break plastics down. In India, there is a bio-degradable process using chemicals and organisms to absorb the carbon in plastics, so that the waste generated is eco-friendly and can be turned into fertilizer.


Join us as we uncover the groundbreaking HiCOP method, revolutionizing the recycling landscape by transforming plastic waste into valuable crude oil. Discover how Japan leads the charge with this innovative solution towards a greener, more sustainable future.
