one recycling center is working to do so while also providing jobs. india is plastic hunters sifting landfill for in a thing of value. there among the estimates at 4000000 people at the bottom of the informal recycling supply chain, ny one company is aiming to reward their efforts and make the entire system more reliable. they are responsible for picking up the discarded plastics and they bring it to the scrap shops, the smaller their mom and pop shops, our, the plastic is sorted into basic levels and then from scratch ups. but the issue of by cell transaction on our out. and it comes and pick it up and we bring it to this factor here. plastics for change wants to make it easier for shops to sell their plastic. that will in turn increase the volumes being brought to this plant in chin . i was here, the plastic is segregated into different quality standards,

a another way to reuse a meta thanks so much for joining us. a tell us what you've turned plastic into hi, thanks for inviting me. actually, we have been on working with plastic into a few and it's a use it but. so we can actually me use it for a diesel, actually kerosene, auto mixture which can be used in industry and how much do you think you can scale up with that? i mean that sounds. c incredible, but are there limits to the technology actually the limits, i'm not for the technology, but it is about the you know, raw material. because even though the plastic everywhere, because lactic is volumetric. getting back with you becomes a problem. because we have a traditional recycling live the last they are there are recyclable,
2:35 pm
plastic becomes plastic. again, i'm awful because there's me on the black. i give an example to make a one, you know, wrap where you need more than 3 before 1000 rappers to make one. so i think it's not the technology that are all material. that's where the problem getting is all just as and one thing i'm wondering is as you take the plastic and turn it into diesel and fuel, that takes energy. so how does that fit into the calculus of making sure that it all comes out in the positive for the environment? actually, b, u is the energy that is used in the process. so we actually get the gas as the hole in the run on the guys that is produced in a cell. so we are not dependent on the larger group energy charge. so much in the runs on there are in the guys that you generated in the process
2:36 pm
itself. so that's why, you know, when neutral a versus just to give people a sense of this technology, how long did it take to, to build the technology to where it is today that you can do this at, at scale actually rebuild the 4th watching within the 7 to 8 months, but then you know that when we realized we were letting the gas out and then almost 3 or 2, you know, the 2nd machine, i think now we have scaled up. we have gone ahead. i mean, getting popular technology in the world. i think a lot of large, but these chemical company, people, when i looking at this as well, you know why i was solution to come to work the plastic and so we are not dependent to what's on the and very quickly you've seen interest from
2:37 pm
investors, but also, any government and in asia interested in this yes, actually be, need to go back because there are no policies that it is accepted technology, it becomes a problem. and i'm happy to see that goldman. i think there's nice this technology as a one of the viable recycling, you know, brought in that new guidelines. meta, patrick kart. thank you so much for joining us. thank you very much. another way to deal with plastic is by using less of it. india, like many other countries, has banned single use plastic bags and is turning to eco friendly or alternatives. d. w ideal bought reports from calcutta on india's growing demand for and production of jude. the if your factory info
