Solar-Powered Plastic-to-Fuel Machine Turns Trash Into Treasure, Literally

Julian Brown's homemade solar-powered pyrolysis machine converts plastic waste into fuel using only sunlight. The 21-year-old inventor built a system where microwave magnetrons heat plastic in an oxygen-free environment, breaking it down into crude oil and natural gas. Powered by 20 solar panels generating 8-9 kW of electricity, this off-grid solution offers potential for sustainable waste management in remote areas where plastic accumulates.
