Plastic2Oil Inc (PTOI)

Guz, that's a great article... I hadn't seen that one before. Does anyone else have refs to technical details of the P2O process, such as plastic types, residue output, etc?

The bit that was new to me was this:

"[JBI] is working with polyolefins – PP, PS and several version of PE. It is not working right now on PET, and while it can handle PVC, reprocessing that would require a system to capture the hydrogen chloride gas that would be given off.
These polyolefins tend not to have much in the way of additives or fillers, so that there is little residue to be removed. Bordynuik estimates such residue to be around one percent of the total output from the system."

I didn't know it wasn't working with PET and isn't viable with PVC, which is a considerable %age of consumer plastics. What about, vinyl, polystyrene, ABS, HDPE, etc.

Anyone have links to tech details like these?

Thanks, S.
