London, Patr. Scientists have made an important discovery in order to make the plastic becoming the biggest problem of pollution in the world.
They have developed a method of converting plastic to energy, which can be recycled by plastics to produce high capacity materials such as carbon nanotubes, through which energy can be generated, as well as getting rid of plastic waste.
Researchers from the Swansea University of Britain said that there are several types of plastic and some parts of it can only be recycled. He told that when the object made of plastic is completed then it is thrown away. This increases the garbage Like plastic bottles, packets, etc., but recycling them can be very beneficial.
What ingredients are made of plastic?
Published in a journal, ‘Carbon Research’, this study focuses on plastic recycling. Researchers have said that all types of plastic are made from carbon, hydrogen and a mixture of oxygen at times.
Many times their proportions are manipulated to make specific plastics. He told that plastic can be broken again in its components. After that, high-level material such as carbon nanotube can be produced by recycling it.
What happens to carbon nanotube?
Alvin Orbeck White of Swansea University explained that carbon nanotubes are small molecules, which have immense physical properties. Its structure is like a cylindrical iron mesh.
In this systematic order of carbon, molecules can produce both heat and energy.
Nanotubes are used for the manufacture of touchscreen display, flexible electronics fabric, antenna, etc. for 5G networks. Apart from this, American space agency NASA also used nanotubes to stop electric shock on the Juneau space shuttle.
Energy will be formed in this way.
The team of researchers used black polyethylene in the daily experiment for this study. It can not be easily recycled. The scientists first separated the carbon from the plastic. After this, he produced nanotubes using carbon atoms.
In their small model, they also showed a bulb through the nanotube. Scientists have told that more carbon dioxide nanotubes will be constructed using more waste than plastic. They said that through the carbon nanotube, over-heating of electricity cables and the problem of spoilage can also get rid of it.
