Home-Scale Solar Pyrolysis

Turning Household Plastic into Fuel

A detailed engineering breakdown of how the solar thermal concentration principles behind large-scale plastic-to-fuel systems can be miniaturized for household use: parabolic dish concentrator, sealed pyrolysis reactor, condensation train, zeolite catalyst upgrade, and realistic fuel yield. Designed to be built for under $1,500 in components.
