Daftar Isi:
- The volume of plastic waste is increasing day by day, due to the lack of management technology and plastic is a non-biodegradable material. Plastic waste causes pollution to the environment and living things if left alone. Various efforts have been made to deal with plastic waste, but only cause other problems such as blockage of water flow. This research introduces the technology of converting plastic waste into fuel oil called pyrolysis. Pyrolysis is a method of converting plastic into fuel oil through a thermal decomposition process in the absence of oxygen. The purpose of this study was to determine the weight of oil produced in the pyrolysis process with variations in condenser temperature. The type of plastic used is LDPE, the reactor temperature is constant at 200° C. The pyrolysis process was carried out for 1 hour for each condenser temperature variation at 28° C, 14° C, and 4° C. Based on the research results, the condenser temperature variation at 28° C gets the lowest oil weight, which is 17 grf, while the condenser temperature variation at 14° C produces 32 grf of oil weight, and the highest oil weight is obtained at 4° C condenser temperature variation of 62 grf.
