Imagine this Right now in the country our streets are full of plastic waste, and at the same time we spend millions importing fuel from other countries. But what if we could solve both problems with one idea? Through a process called pyrolysis, we can heat plastic waste without oxygen and turn it into fuel petrol, diesel, and paraffin. The same way a refinery separates crude oil, we can separate these fuels using one tank and different pipes, because each one boils at a different temperature. This means cleaner streets, cheaper fuel for generators and factories, and new jobs for young people collecting plastic and running the machines. Companies in some african countries are already doing this. We have the plastic, we have the need, and we have the brains. Africa doesn’t have to keep waiting we can turn our waste into wealth and power our own communities.
