Abstract

Day to the day the life of every human being is unimaginable without the think of using energy sources. The rate of Indian economic growth itself difficult without reserving of fossil energy sources like crude oil, natural gas or coal. In this contest, humanity has to think about the different energy sources such that biomass, hydropower, geothermal energy, wind energy, solar energy, nuclear energy, etc. On the other side suitable waste management techniques need to be developed for proper disposal of generated waste such as plastics, kitchen waste, industrial waste, etc. Human produces around 300 million tons of plastic wastes every year, and these wastes end up in the environment destroying marine life and other ecosystems, Due to their non-biodegradable in nature, it is challenging to eliminate the plastic wastes from view. The purpose of this project work is to carry the process of converting the waste plastic into some useful liquid fuel compounds which can give the solution for the shortage of energy sources and waste management strategy. The second phase of this work deals with the evaluation of engine performance and emission characteristics using produced fuel from waste plastics. To convert waste into value-added product efficient polymer process called thermal pyrolysis was used. The physical properties of the obtained fuel and its blends of diesel fuels are determined.
