The non-recyclable plastics like toothbrush, biscuit wrappers etc are converted into liquid fuel and it can be used in generators, boilers etc.
And also the gas which is produced we use it in our machines.
By constructing these small plants plastic waste collected from various municipal wards can be disposed off.

Plastic is a very essential part of our life.
When we wake up the first thing we use is a toothbrush which is made up of plastic.
Banning plastic is not a solution. Recovering and recycling is a better option.
The process of Depolymerization which we use is an end to end solution for plastic.
The fuel and carbon which is produced in the process, we sell it in the market.
