Exciting breakthrough as Indian scientists 'turn plastic into petrol and diesel'

India will soon be able to convert its plastic wastes into high-grade petrol and diesel, thanks to a breakthrough by researchers at the Dehradun-based Indian Institute of Petroleum (IIP). 

The IIP, a constituent lab of the Council of Scientific and Industrial Research, has for the first time in the country developed a technology to convert plastic waste into petroleum products.

 

The technology converts plastic into gasoline, diesel or aromatics through the use of a combination of suitable catalysts.

 

It will also produce LPG as a common by-product.
