Abstract : Plastics are an indispensable part of our today’s life, Its specific properties and faster rate of production of plastics are affecting our health; on the other hand, plastics play important role in domestic and industrial applications. In that situation, due to plastic production lots of environmental challenges are arising as if it is not disposed properly. In that condition, waste plastic recycling, regeneration and its utilization are necessary for human life, environment, and nation. The waste plastic to fuel pyrolysis method is commonly used as the process including thermal cracking and vis-breaking. The most commonly used catalysts in the literature for plastic waste pyrolysis include silica-alumina and zeolites. This process is providing as a result of plastic oil, diesel, petrol and other useful fuel which is using as an alternative fuel for engine. The scope of the current research is conversion of plastic waste to useful fuel. It also describes the earlier work on fuel from plastic waste.
