        abstract = {Plastic waste has become one of the most pressing environmental issues globally, with millions of tons of plastic ending up in landfills, oceans, and other ecosystems each year. Traditional methods of waste disposal, such as landfills and incineration, often contribute to pollution and environmental degradation. The growing demand for energy, paired with the environmental crisis, calls for sustainable and innovative solutions. This project aims to tackle both of these challenges by converting waste plastic into useful energy. By utilizing waste plastic as a resource, we can generate electricity and reduce pollution, showcasing a novel approach to waste-to-energy technology.
The proposed system operates by using heating panels to burn plastic waste, generating heat that is then converted into electricity. This electricity is stored in batteries, which can then be used to power devices such as light bulbs. This method allows for an efficient conversion of waste into usable energy. A key aspect of this project is addressing the pollution generated from burning plastic. Instead of releasing harmful gases directly into the atmosphere, the system employs a pollution filter that captures the emissions, such as carbon particles and other toxic gases. These harmful substances are not discarded but rather collected and repurposed. The carbon collected from the filter is transformed into ink, which can be used for painting and other creative applications, demonstrating the recycling potential of waste in multiple forms. It can also be used to make concrete, bricks and cement. This system not only produces energy but also minimizes harmful environmental effects by recycling and repurposing waste materials.},
