Hi Guys thanks for the replies , a stumbled upon this forum ! Must say this is what I am after.
If it is just Mr Google I dont know ?? Certainly doesn't look like much of a scam. I stop reading at page 53 .
Have a look and reply waht you think . I am certainly are already busy with the reactor part of it when I walked into the engineering shop this morning.
I need help with that insulation , elements , and heat controller . Think this is the way to start making a small one , will turn to its own gasses once proven working.
Check this out.

Hi Everybody.
I had a look into this when I was involved with a alternative energy company about 10 years ago.
But with the 2010 word cup that was around the corner out focus was more on solar geysers.
As you can still see them just next to the major highways , and off the the target of 1 mil by 2010 that was the target form government side !! I think we reached 10 000.
This is beside the point , I started looking at making any alternative fuel . No sir not Bio diesel , and there is noting wrong with it , but the process is very expensive and the sunflower oil is scares. At this stage not a viable option , but something that sparked mu imagination from the first day was this diesel out of plastic wast.
Now my question is the following ! And yes I can google , but I need some fellow guys that can help me with my shortfalls in live . Electrical etc , as well as on the chemical side . I can build all the mechanical stuff , even got the plot to host some experiments .
I just need like minded people , with the Diesel price going to R16 / L I think it is worth investigating . Go and read on the forums how to make diesel from wast plastic.
If you think I am crazy that is fine , but waht ever you say neg just have first hand experience , like I said I can google , and that guy is very clever and can talk allot of rubbish to.
This is definite something that can be don , and cheaply ! They recon 20KG plastic +_ 18L diesel , and with a very small plant you can easy do 20L /day. Damn I can do with that , and I dont think the average person can use 100L /week.
No I dont want to challenge the oil companies , and nor do I want to sell it ! I want to make enough for myself and friends , and make the reactors. So anybody can make their own.
Have you seen how many plastic recycle guys sell plastic all over. Apparently your coke and milk bottles make the Nice's diesel .
Your input , and if there are like minded people out there send me a PM .
Just maybe from what I read we can help save the planet.

It would certainly go a long way in cleaning the environment.
I hope you can pull it off.

This is interesting... and since I drive a diesel, it's even more interesting...
