In this research work, plastic oil and steam are going to be generated from waste plastics. Waste lubricating oil used to improve the heat conduction in the plastic total volume [1]. A specific quantity of lubricating oil was mixed with plastics to produce plastic oil. An indigenous home appliance product was developed and special operating procedure was being followed for the simultaneous production of plastic oil and steam. The energy available in the waste plastics was recovered in two different forms of energy as plastic oil and steam, which in turn increases overall efficiency to the conversion process. Due to this process, enormous amount of waste plastics was getting converted into fuel (plastic oil). This method was found to have the potential of reducing the ill-effects of the waste plastics and lubricating oil on the environment.
