Basics

  • A YouTube Channel by Julian Brown Documenting His Efforts on Pyrolysis
  • Mainly focusing on Microwave Pyrolysis of Plastic Waste ( RDF ) for production of Gasoline and Diesel Fuel
  • The current (Version 4.5) reactor can work in a semi-continuous manner
  • Given the magnetrons run off electricity as of now it could be run off of 100% Renewables such as Solar (akin to the goals of Solar Cement etc)
    • There is a fundraiser for a PV+Battery Array In the Works/Ongoing

Meetups

  • One going down in jacksonville tonight; will try and make it

Potential Routes for Improvement/Collaboration

Spill Containment/Spill Response Prep

  • Uncertain on how much Fuel/Petcoke / Crude etc is stored etc, but having Seccondary Containment setup, and a Spill Response Kit onsite would be nice
  • Also check if he has Eyewashing Stations+Emergency Showers onsite or not
    • As a cheaper alternative, those sterile Blow Fill Seal bottles of saline can get the job done etc
