Ghana entrepreneur turns plastic waste into fuel: Video
An entrepreneur in Ghana is converting plastic waste into diesel, offering a potential solution to both pollution and energy challenges.
In Accra, Sampson Nsorh collects and processes plastic through a chemical method that can produce up to 900 litres of fuel per week from one tonne of waste. His initiative comes as Ghana faces major waste management issues, with most rubbish improperly disposed of, contributing to pollution and flooding. Experts say innovations like this could help address both environmental damage and rising energy costs, as global fuel prices remain under pressure.
