QUE-ANS

Ans - WPPM, or Waste Plastic Product Machine, is a technology developed by Deshmukh Research Industry (DRI). This machine directly converts mixed municipal dry waste plastic (below 150 microns) into usable forms like plastic bricks and paver blocks. Our semi-automatic model processes 100 kg of plastic waste daily. It operates on the "Golden theory of waste plastic material," transforming plastic from a solid to a unique semi-liquid stage without burning. This allows us to shape it into various useful products.

Ans - "The Golden Theory of Waste Plastic Material" forms the core principle of the WPPM. "The International Journal Of Engineering And Science (IJES)" published this concept. This theory explains that waste plastic, when subjected to the required heat (typically 225C to 260C for the semi-automatic model ), transforms from its original solid state into a unique pliable stage that is between solid and liquid. In this unique state, you can give the plastic any required shape. Additionally, the created products retain properties useful in normal life. Crucially, this process avoids burning the plastic, thus significantly reducing pollution.

Ans - The Plastic Dam technique offers a pollution-free solution that addresses both plastic pollution and water conservation. For example, the first Plastic Dam in Aravade used 17.5 tons of compressed municipal waste plastic. This initiative effectively freed 148 villages and two municipal corporations from plastic pollution. Furthermore, it conserved over 25 lakh liters of water.

Ans - The Waste Plastic Product Machine (WPPM) significantly reduces air pollution. It achieves this by transforming waste plastic from a solid to a semi-liquid state, rather than burning it. This process minimizes the release of harmful emissions compared to traditional disposal methods. Overall, it plays a critical role in reducing plastic waste and pollution.

Ans - DR Products are useful items created using the Waste Plastic Product Machine. These include various creations like DR blocks, which are formed from compressed waste plastic using indirect heat. They significantly mitigate plastic pollution. By transforming waste plastic into durable and usable forms, these products benefit the environment. Thus, they divert waste from landfills and oceans.

Ans - DR Products have diverse applications. You can use them for road dividers, footpath blocks, and plastic bricks. Additionally, you can create structures like road crossings, motivational walls, and garden inspiration models.

Ans - For a 15x9x6 inch DR product, you typically need approximately 2 kg of waste plastic. The exact quantity depends on the specific product. However, you usually obtain about 900 gm of the final product from 1 kg of processed waste plastic. This machine effectively converts a large volume of waste plastic into a very small, usable product form.

Ans - PWCP, or "Plastic Waste Control Project," aims to manage India's plastic waste issue. This initiative employs technology developed by Chanakya Bhaskar to centralize solutions, create a formula, and expand across cities. The ultimate goal involves establishing "Bharat Swachhata Kendra (BSK)" in each municipal corporation for public welfare, working towards a plastic waste-controlled India.

Ans - A Bharat Swachhata Kendra operates under the Swachh Bharat Abhiyan. It functions by accepting waste plastic and processing it using the Waste Plastic Product Machine to create DR products. We then utilize these products for the welfare of the community. Importantly, any unprocessed plastic finds use in the construction of Plastic Dams.

Ans - You can manufacture Waste Plastic Product Machines (WPPM) in three types, depending on plastic waste availability : Manual, Semi-automation, and Automation.

Ans - The manual WPPM suits areas with up to 100 people. This includes homes, apartments (for plastic generated up to 10 kg/day ), small villages, and plastic product companies. This allows small entities to manage their plastic waste locally.

Ans - The automation WPPM is recommended for larger areas with populations exceeding 5000. This includes municipal corporations, industrial zones, and district garbage depots. These machines handle higher capacities of plastic waste, typically 1 ton or more per day.

Ans - The WPPM can process mixed municipal dry waste plastic, generally below 150 microns. This includes plastic carry bags, packaging materials (food, grocery, bakery), multilayer plastics, and plastic wrappers. Segregation by size and shape is generally not required.
Important Note: While segregation by size/shape isn't strictly necessary, you must remove materials like paper, oily packing waste, natural tree waste, mud, and food material. If the plastic is unclean, you can use a dry waste air blower washing machine.

Ans- No, during the plastic processing in the WPPM, you do not need to mix any additional solutions to join the plastic. Crushing or cutting the plastic is also not required for this purpose. The process remains simple: you dump the plastic according to the product weight and directly process it in the machine.
