I'm wanting to pay women to collect the blown and discarded waste around villages in the hills of Lombok, Indonesia, starting with a village at the head of one of the largest rivers on the island, a river that some people have used for rubbish removal for decades.
This is mostly plastic bags, foil wrappers, foam trays, etc. I then wish to blend these 'unrecyclables' with PP or PS (less desirable but sturdy, easily melted plastics) sourced from wherever. I want to produce as many pavers daily as I can. I'm thinking a twin hopper delivery system where the products blend at heat point.
Who else has achieved reasonable results with a paving stone using similar unwashed, dirty plastics? I need to design a workable machine, to be produced either in New Zealand or Indonesia, that will produce as many 'bricks' as I can throw plastic at it. This will be funded by a charity I'm currently setting up, called SatuKampung (OneVillage).
