What if we could turn plastic waste into usable fuel — not in massive refineries, but in compact machines the size of a couch?
In this episode of Green Disruptors, we sit down with Simon, founder of Scarab Tech, to explore their innovative pyrolysis systems that convert plastic waste into diesel and gas — on-site, off-grid, and at scale.
Born out of a Burning Man project and now piloted in South Africa, Australia, Bangladesh, and aboard the Plastic Odyssey ship, Scarab Tech’s solution is tackling both plastic pollution and energy security with one decentralized machine.
We talk fuel regulations, community-scale deployment, and the challenges of early-stage climate tech fundraising.
This episode is a must-listen for climate tech founders, investors, and anyone passionate about scalable solutions to waste and energy problems.
