| dc.description.abstract | The growing number of people in the world has a big impact on plastic waste,
especially non-organic waste, because it takes decades to decompose. The
problem of plastic waste is getting bigger and bigger, so a plastic waste
processing equipment is needed, which is a pyrolysis tool. Pyrolysis is a method
of processing plastic waste without involving oxygen in the reactor tube,
processing plastic waste by the method of pyrolysis has superiority does not
cause smoke and can reduce plastic waste in a short time. This research
method, using a type of plastic (LDPE) weighing 500 grams, with a variety of
coolants and without coolers for 30 and 60 minutes. The results of the data
processing analysis of the pyrolysis process of plastic waste, time and
temperature are very influential on how much or how little oil is produced, the use
of a cooler and not using a cooler can affect the color and fuel yield. The length of
the path to the condenser tube also affects the fuel flowrate. The longer the path
to the condenser tube the longer the condensation process, the longer the fuel
produced and vice versa. The result of the fuel is more clear using cooling than
without cooling.
