How to deal with plastic waste is a huge problem all over the world. Most of the garbage produced by human beings is landfilled or incinerated, and only 9% can be recycled.
Hungary's latest invention patents can make non-recyclable or difficult-to-process plastic waste into concrete, which can be used on many construction sites. This technology eliminates the need to recycle plastic or other waste and requires only two things: Grinding machines and glue-like additives can make plastic waste into concrete.
First, the plastic waste is ground and then added with Hungarian-developed additives to mix tiny plastic granules with cement and water into concrete. This special additive can bond cement and powder plastic waste together.
This 'plastic concrete' can replace traditional building materials, and the plastic granules make it more flexible in use than traditional concrete. According to the inventor's introduction, it is best suited for the construction of highways and sidewalks.
Hungary's Masuko Co., Ltd. obtained the invention patent for the project. This technology is a good choice for countries that are particularly affected by plastic pollution, such as China, India and Chile, especially for handling floating problems that cause serious problems in the ocean. Plastic garbage.
The patent is simple to implement. Except for grinders, plastic waste and additives, it does not require much other materials and equipment. Waste can be used to produce 'plastic concrete' as long as it can be ground to about 10 mm. The scraps that have been tried have been scrapped car parts, glass, any kind of plastic (unclean, unclassified), etc.
This technical invention can provide a method of reusing plastic waste. It is simple, low cost, and can be used to construct materials while also helping to process large amounts of garbage.
