RE: My plans for a solar powered plastic to fuel converter.
Hey, this is a great idea! Never thought of it.. What container would you suggest for the melty plastic sludge it'll create?

Thank, Biffy! I was thinking a 55gal drum in the sketch, as I've seen them used for that purpose. Also, it would allow for a large core/medium for heating. The Fresnel lense being the variation from the one's I've seen.
Thanks for the comment, btw. It isn't an entirely original idea, just seems to be largely unknown.
I misread your question. The resulting vapor is condensed into a a diesel like fuel, and can be stored accordingly.
