This may turn out being a good idea, but I think scientist should first check to make sure the plastic roads don't leech any potentially harmful chemicals into the ground water.
Good point
Probably not too difficult since recycled plastic is typically required to be cleaned before it can be used again
@@myzteriouz609Plastic release molecules from it's own composition. Washing it doesn't help for that. So small molecules of plastic might go into the ground and infiltrate more in the environment such as water, earth ground etc. and drinking water with plastic molecules in it is not very good for all living creatures. That's why it's probably not a good idea having plastic roads all around the world....
Not a good idea by any conceivable measure.
There's like a million reasons this road is a bad idea, but leeching chemicals is not one of them. The industry standard here is ASPHALT! You know; that product where hot raw petrolium tar is mixed with rock and just dumped on grade. The product whose thick chemical smell lingers for months after install. And lets not forget that asphalt is literally flamible!
You would have to try hard to find a more toxic, more noxious, and more dangerous alternative. What asphalt has going for it is that it's dead cheap and provides great traction to tires.
It's always good to see ways to effectively recycle our mountains of plastic waste, I'd ask about microplastics, but it still looks like an excellent idea.
using this idea in my science fair project, this might work
and how about micro plastic?
Plastics are designed for DESIGNERS EXPERTISE as well as GEOGRAPHERS, OCEANOGRAPHERS ACUMEN for QUALITY Standards
Thunderf00t busted this six years ago.
People are sheeps. I saw Thunderf00ts bust.
this is how lego for adults looks like
The solution to so called kachre je pahad collecting outside all cities #hatsoff #respect
Plastics gradually but slowly degrade, and eventually fragments from these plastic sheets may go into the groundwater.
I think in this use case, plastics are mixed with some other stuffs to help hold them for degradation and fragmentation.
@@Sdscon the issue still stands! Were is the so called other material beside plastic? Plastic by itslef ain”t bloody durable as whaever we used for asphalt! Even if ypu mix it with stronger materials it will weken the road the same
@@RavenL1337yeah but plstic degrades very slowly
@@iambored3245in the video they say it lasts 10 years.... Then you have to change it. So you still have to do with these garbage thing and that also means that it can release some plastic in the ground and that is a very concerning problem as this will go in groundwater and thus gives a massive pollution of water, from which will also go in the water you are going to drink one day or another... And it will be impossible to filter...
@@iambored3245
The plastic will degrade very, because it is soft & abrases very easily. Cars driving on these roads will sand them down into dust. Then you have the issue of UV light which breaks down the plastic, accelerating the road's decay.
Notice how their Plastic Road test bed is only used for bicycle lanes? Bicycles are a 100 times lighter than automobiles, & do not apply any where near the fraction of the damaging forces automobiles apply to a road surface.
This level of engineering dishonesty proves how this is just a grift.
Our govt needs to promote this now.
Bring these to St. Louis!! They have a real road problem there!
hello, mình rát thích cách làm đường của đất nước bạn, ok number1
I wonder how it will with stand the elements of nature there and in less temperate climates.
I loved it... I hope it comes true soon. Because it is necessary. Useful. Ecological. Also durable. Plus it doesn't break easily. And in case of earthquake or accident. It is not an obstacle.
Yeah plastic roads actually caused more issues than conventional roads. Whoopsies!!!!
Can you please elaborate
Because i was thinking to do my final year project on this topic.
@@kunalaher1026 bhai LINKEDIN vr message kr vichar haa topic feasible aahe ka consider karayla project saathi...
@@kunalaher1026 microplastics going into the soil, finding their way to bodies of water.
@@kunalaher1026 If you think this is a good idea get your money back from your school. They failed you lol.
cool music - must invest
When does that contruction can We build in Indonesia or can I lern that contruction? Tq.
That's fine for temperate climates like Europe but what about hotter places like the southern US
Still that temprature cant melt plastic right and its not 100% plastic in that formula best solution so far human invesnt to manage plastic waste
It is not fine for anywhere. It is a stupid computergenerated idea.
Computergenerated, not a songle gram of road produces. And it never will.
I agree, it's probably not 100% plastic.@hamzamir131
Will it catch fire easily
plastic does not influence weather. it does influence waste int he enviroment which is a hazard to animals and the integrity of the ecosystem.
Now, Pakistan constructed a plastic road in Karachi and Islamabad.
Bicycle path...not a road way...
Plastic waste use making road best solution
Yes of course
But the real question is, how long can it last? And 2 can it be recycled ♻ again?
It cannot be recycled again unlike asphalt which is almost all recyclable.
so how is the plastic road now?
Is it really green technology?

When saw this about 8 years ago I knew this was genius
And it shows if you think this is a good idea that you are far from a genius lol.
@@katkit4281 Why is it not?
@@landmark22 They cost way more than asphalt, they are not nearly as durable, there is nothing for them to stick to the ground on and keep coming off and separated, releases tons of microplastic into the environment, and they are not recyclabl,. Once made you cannot recycle the plastic again. However asphalt is 99% recycled when reused tim and time again.
So in the end you have a road that is much more expensive, not nearly as durable, that contributes to waste more by not being recyclable and release of micro plastics, and has no way of actually connecting and sticking to the ground where panels don't keep coming up.
@katkit4281 to my knowledge it's track connected
@@landmark22 But they still need a way to contact to the actual ground.
But the micro plastics..
This aint a solution,who takes care of all the microplastic from the roads when people drive on them?
Better than nothing
@@sh1ge89 NO it actually isnt
Your lungs apparently
"would last 3x as long" as what? surely you're not saying a material such as plastic (PP?) would last longer than asphalt (plastic is greek for formable i.e. soft, i.e. subject to quick wear)? and when you exchange a section, what will you do with the pipes running through its channels? also even plastic sections need foundation, e.g. macadam, which is generally the most expensive thing when laying roads. there is no gain to be had here. it's a brainstorming exercise that was never vetted
Big Concrete in Amerikkka won't allow it
one ciggarate and you are done
This road construction procedure undo
Wonderful
Pakistan is making one in Islamabad
But what about when we plant green vegitation at road side they would also affected and in the same way if this construction increases plastic production also incr
plastic is thrown massively in the nature, we can use it instead of producing new plastic, normal asphalt construction is also bad for nature anyway
The background song is a banger
why isn't this widely adopted?
organization and material costs. while it utilizes recycled plastic, producing the modular roadways while suffering manufacturing costs for the base foundation of mass production to be possible makes the process expensive initially, on top of being able to have a custom design for roadways that aren't straight or curved at an exact angle. I know this because here in the U.S I'm part of an engineering team working to adopt a plastic walkway solution that will provide similar effects.
@@Divide204 very informative! thanks
@@wydadiyoun no worries! Glad it helped.
@@Divide204 can you please elaborate a Little bit on this topic because we were thinking about doing this as our group project for our final year.
@@kunalaher1026 certainly. While building these kinds of roadways are just about "great" in every aspect, the "catch" so to speak, is the amount of up front manufacturing cost, and by that I mean paying for the custom machinery that will heat and shape the molten plastics to the shape you want. With this specific manufacturing process, it becomes even more expensive if you wish to have a custom made machine that can create different angled roadways that aren't either straight or a 90 degree bend. All of these machines as well as the potential location and jobs being created will make this extremely costly at first, but will be more effective in the long-term with a higher lifespan and more versatility of use.
This is a stupid idea.
1... Plastic is very soft & abrases easily which will create tons of microplastics that will be immediately released into the environment.
2... Being hollow will cause the road to deform & collapse very quickly, because the weight of the cars, especially trucks... is not being distributed across the entire surface.
3... Plastic has a very low friction coefficient, which is why they are often used to make bushings for rotating mechanical parts. This would cause cars to constantly loose traction... & before anyone suggests just molding the surface to be rough... we go back to problem #1.
4... The plastcs the video is proposing to make these roads out of... quickly breaks down from UV light, which would also result in tons of microplastics being released directly into the environment.
5... Plastics can only be recycled 2 or 3 times, before the polymers are broken down from the process, & they no longer have structural cohesion. The frequent replacement of these road pannels needed, will cost far more money than the current means of road surfacing.
Can it detain extreme heat or cold conditions like we have in some parts of the world like Asian countries or is plastic really more durable than a regular coal road
How r u so sure that there won't be any dents and bents in such roads
It's PLASTIC!!
Further on that, they should heat the segments. This should be able to make road salt obsolete allowing cars to last longer
Plastic roads are good for environment protection in terms of reduction and reuse,
but it occupies the living environment for insects.
Thus need to do something to compensate the balance of Insect Bio-Micro Ecological Environment
how does it affect worse than normal roads?
Except you did no research because once made those plastic roads are not able to be recycled again. However you know what can be recycled over and over again? Asphalt roads.
