This Hyderabad Couple Converts ‘Dead’ Plastic to Petrol
For over a year now, 45-year-old Satish, a long-time resident of Hyderabad, has been involved in turning 'dead' plastic, into usable fuel.
“When plastic is made, it gets a life of four or five cycles. That's what they call recycled plastic. However, after repeating the process a few times, it gains weight and it loses its properties. Then it is called 'dead' plastic or end-of-life plastic," Satish says.
