[Stoves] Plastic-powered plane to fly from Sydney to London

[Paul Anderson]

Xavier and all,

The usage as airplane fuel does not interest me, but the gathering of 
plastic and making it into something usable as a fuel is very interesting.

I am involved with a project in Kampala, Uganda with neighborhood 
cleanup and making briquettes.   But we do not have a use for the 
plastic which is all over the place.

Does anyone have info about perhaps "melting" the plastic into blocks, 
or some other way to utilize the plastic?

Paul
