Introduction[pic 6][pic 7]

Plastic, a synthetic material, durable, flexible, cheap, strong and readily available. Plastic came from oil which is being drilled under the ground. This valuable oil takes millions of years to be created, it is made from the remains of large reptiles, animals and plants that rest beneath the earth. Using plastic in our everyday lives made our life easier, but the consequence of using this material is the proper disposal. It takes hundreds of years for this material to be decomposed

Today large quantities plastic waste materials were thrown everywhere which harms the environment and the health of many Filipinos, likewise petroleum products such as diesel, kerosene, gasoline are being imported in our country from the middle east which cost our country billions of dollars every year. Carbon emission from burning plastic materials causes greenhouse gasses which in turn causes global warming and climate change.

Researchers have found a way to solve all these environmental and economical problems all at once by converting plastic waste materials back into its original form (oil) by melting the plastic, evaporating it, and condensing it to turn into oil. Oil is any neutral, non-polar chemical substance that is a viscous liquid at ambient temperatures and hydrophobic oil have a high carbon and hydrogen content that are usually flammable and slippery.
