If your computer is properly ventilated it should run almost indefinately.

You were missing a parentheses that I took a guess at. This may not be the 
same equation. 

I have a slower computer than yours and together these plots run in a couple 
of seconds

Needs["Graphics`"];

L=48;
a=1/10;
A=1;
r=1/10;
t=Rationalize[0.046296296296296294`];

eqn=Simplify[A r L (1-a)((1-t) c k^a)==
        (a+(1-a)(1-t)) L^2 (1-a)^2 (1-t)^3 k^(3a-1)+
          L(1-a) c (1-t) (-A(a+(1-a)(1-t))(2-t)-
                (1-a)(1-t)^2+A a(1-t)) k^(2a-1)+A c^2 (A(a+(1-
          a)(1-t))+(1-a)(1-t)-
                A a(1-t)) k^(a-1)+A^2 r c^2];

soln=c/.Solve[eqn,c];

Plot[Evaluate[soln],{k,0.8,1.5},
    Frame->True,Axes->False,PlotStyle->Blue];

Bound the ImplicitPlot in both variables

ImplicitPlot[eqn,{k,0.8,1.5},{c,21,41},
    AspectRatio->1/GoldenRatio,ImageSize->288,
    Frame->True,Axes->False,PlotStyle->Blue];
