Company discovers formula to turn waste plastic to fuel Sept 2010 September 27, 2010 - Moinuddin Sarker, Ph.D., MCIC, and VP, Research & Development for Natural State Research Incorporated (NSR) recently announced the discovery of a unique formula to make liquid fuel from waste plastic. Dr. Sarker and his team of research chemists have developed a formula to take most types of plastic and turn them into liquid fuel. 95 percent of the plastic is turned into liquid fuel while the remaining 5 percent can be used as a substitute for coal with a higher BTU value. In today ’s world this new discovery has a triple benefit, according to NSR. First, plastic that would normally end up in a landfill will be down cycled. Second is the benefit of the fuel itself, for automobiles, trucks, aircraft and electricity that will be created in the process. Third, plastic manufacturers can proceed with new and innovative plastic manufacturing techniques without worrying about the ramifications of their products becoming waste in landfills. No matter how the NSR technology is used, an organization will benefit from “carbon credits ” predicated upon the elimination of the waste plastic and the reduction in dependence on fossil fuels. NSR has successfully handled most types of plastics and on a commercial scale a conversion plant will ensure zero emissions. Plastic materials tested by NSR include, but are not limited to plastic bags, water bottles, milk containers, and a wide variety of PVC materials. Packaging: Compostable Chip Bags May 2010 As we reported in our last edition, SunChips ®, Frito Lay Canada s popular line of multigrain snacks, has introduced the world s first 100 per cent compostable chip bag. The news release extols that "This green innovation, a first-of-its kind initiative, will change the way Canadians hear, see and think about product packaging in the future." Starting in March 2010, SunChips packaging will be made from more than 90 per cent renewable, plant-based materials. This new package will completely break down into compost in a hot, active compost pile in approximately 14 weeks. On store shelves, it has a unique sound, the new sound of green. The company has provided some hip promotional materials, including a "Greenvention" contest and sound bites that you can listen to at www.sunchips.ca/newsoundofgreen The compostable chip bag was launched in March in the 225g & 425g size bags, with the balance of SunChips packages transitioning into the compostable packaging in August 2010. Marc Guay, President, Frito Lay Canada says the packaging made from renewable material "represents the next small step in Frito Lay Canada s environmental sustainability journey." Frito Lay Canada has worked for more than a decade to reduce the company s environmental impact. In addition to the compostable chip bag, it has diverted more than 92 per cent of manufacturing waste from landfills into re-use streams in 2009 and reused approximately 30 million shipping cartons annually and 200 million since 1999 -- equivalent to more than 300,000 trees saved annually and more than 2 million trees saved since 1999.
