Abstract:   This research is based on the number of plastic waste. Beyond that there are also types of zeolite catalysts that have not been utilized further. The waste is able to be utilized using a pyrolisis process that can convert the waste into fuel oil.The objectives of this research are: (1) to know the process of pyrolysis in HDPE type plastic waste with zeolite catalyst, (2) get the viscosity, weight, and volume value of HDPE plastic pyrolisis waste with natural catalyst.The method used in the experimental method, variables varied in this study were the time of combustion of the pyrolysis process using time variations for 60 minutes, 120 minutes, 180 minutes, 240 minutes, 300 minutes and 360 minutes. The response variables of this study include fluid volume, specific gravity and oil viscosity. The results of this study indicate that the highest fluid volume can be achieved with burning time of 180 minutes, while the highest density can be achieved with a combustion time of 60 minutes, then the lowest oil viscosity can be obtained with 360 minutes burning time. The conclusion of this research is the time of combustion and addition of catalyst able to influence the level of oil quality of pyrolisi process in liquid volume aspect, specific gravity and viscosity. Keywords: HDPE Plastic Trash, catalyst, alternative fuels, pyrolysis products.
