Environmental pollution caused by plastic waste has become one of the biggest problems worldwide, since then, more and more people have been looking for ways to radically reduce the use of this material, even to the point of creating energy from plastic. Now an incredible idea has caught everyone’s attention.
An innovative idea: here’s how long it took to develop it
Recently an American inventor named Daniel Caris has successfully created and developed a machine capable of converting any plastic waste into energy. This would not only considerably reduce plastic pollutants, but could prove to be an effective, sustainable and sustainable alternative to generate clean energy.
It is important to mention that the man who created this innovation is currently 76 years old and has more than 40 years of experience as a manufacturing engineer, something that has been fundamental in the development of this highly successful mechanics. We could even point out that Caris invested around 10 years in perfecting the project called Carismatic Generator.
The idea of creating Carismatic Generator was mainly to offer an effective and beneficial recycling option that is not only able to reduce the high rate of pollution that has begun to cause major natural disasters, but it is also expected that this device can generate totally clean energy, since this machinery only requires plastic waste for its operation and is not linked to fossil fuel sources for its operation.
How is energy created from plastic?
The process begins when the machine shreds all the plastic waste that is applied to it, this phase will last until an extremely fine powder of what were once plastic objects is obtained. This same powder is then introduced into a generator where it is heated to high temperatures, to be exact, this shredded plastic will be able to reach more than 2000ºC in order to generate a type of energy and then convert it.
This overheating of the shredded plastic will then be able to create a thermal reaction that decomposes the plastics and releases a large amount of thermal energy. This same energy obtained will then be used to heat water to produce steam at pressures. Continuing with the conversion process, this steam will then drive a steam turbine, transforming this thermal energy into mechanical energy.
It is extremely important to highlight that the aforementioned turbine is positioned next to an electric generator destined to transform mechanical energy into electricity that can be used in different ways that adapt to each buyer, whether at home or in industrial spaces.
These are the places where it can be implemented
First, Caris Incorporated is seeking to secure sufficient funding to be able to offer this innovative power generator at different scales, this is in order to reach more people, businesses and even industries that can benefit and the environment with this discovery.
On the other hand, the creator pointed out that he wants the cost of his invention to be considerably accessible to all. The idea is that its implementation acquires certain flexibility, being possible to install it in apartments, traditional homes or commercial buildings, and it is even expected that it can also be applied in industrial environments.
The creation of the Carismatic Generator is positioned as one of the most innovative in energy production, as it has the great potential not only to produce energy without involving highly polluting fossil fuels, but also has as its main objective to reduce the high levels of environmental pollution caused by plastics.
