In 2008, the estimate amount of landfill waste in Indonesia reached 38.5 million tons every year with the largest compositions are organic waste (58%), plastic waste (14%), paper waste (9%) and wood waste (4%). Among waste compositions, only plastic waste takes the longest time of decomposition, about 100-500 years. This is because the characteristic of plastic is unravel which can lead to pollution of land, water and air. To overcome these problems, many people try to find solutions for plastic wastes such as burn, bury and recycle plastic wastes. But, all these ways still have negative impacts for the environment and the safety of the workers who do the combustion process. Therefore, it is a conversion machine that can convert plastic wastes into fuel with pyrolisis system, it burn plastic wastes in vacuum condition. This machine has several advantages, which have a high calorific value of the fuel (equivalent calorific value premium), and this machine can reduce a lot of plastic wastes, reached 92 kilos/ 8 hour every day for 2 kilos reactor capacity, and it’s also safety for environment because the plastic wastes are burnt in the reactor with 900 °C heat. So, the process and the oil are not produces dioxine gas. The innovations of this conversion of plastic waste machine are, it has a continuous pipe that can put 0.3 kg of plastic waste within 1.5 minutes while the machine is operating.
