Nulixo's plan can not work as they propose.

I've done some reading about Redwave's technology; how they sort plastics by resin code.

Really impressive (and expensive) technology. They shred the incoming plastic stream, then run it through an XRF machine (X-ray fluorescence), and then use puffs of air to selectively sort out the 'bad' plastics (anything with chlorine in it) that are indicated by X-ray.

Impressive. However, not every shred of PVC or CPVC will be caught. Some will flow through to be processed by P2O's machine. How much? Depends on the flow rate of plastic, and the PVC/CPVC plastic trash fraction. Processing 10, 20, 30, 40 tons a day ... you'll probably get hundreds of pounds of PVC/CPVC at least.

P2O's machine will spew HCl out the vent stack. The reduced pH will be detected by the sensors, and caustic scrubbers will be engaged, while the machine is emergency-shutdown. The molten plastic load will have to be cooled and land filled. The machine will have to be thoroughly cleaned out before being put back in operation.

How do we know this? Because P2O already tried to process plastic waste from Madison County. PVC was in the trash. It fouled the machine, and engaged the caustic scrubbers. This is all a matter of record.
