Plastic waste becomes a threat to the environment because it is difficult to degraded. Plastics are organic polymers that can be pyrolysis into simpler molecules. Plastic pyrolysis can be done at high temperatures in special reactors. For efficiency process required reactors are effective and efficient. This research aims to develop reactor and test pyrolysis of several types of plastic waste. This research is a development and experimental with stages include (1) develop reactor kg 2-3 plastic pyrolysis with a dual cooling system (3). Determining the character and yield of plastic waste pyrolysis. The results of this development study are: (1). Plastic pyrolysis reactors to fuel the oil has been made, with a demensions of 30 x 40 x 50 cm, stainless steel, 2-3kg plastic Capacitistas, (2). Plastic from beverage glasses succeeded in pyrolysis in reactor with a temperature range of 190-300 oC to produce a yield of 95% and the raw material of the paper produces 93-94% oil yield, but for the material from the bottle is harder to be dipirolisis. The oil characteristics of the results of the priolysis are light yellow to brownish yellow, odor like oil gasoline.
