A little math on JBI's emissions results:

NOx: 0.81 lbs/hr @ 24x7x365 = 7095 lbs/yr = 3.5 tons/yr

That means if JBI's Plastic2Oil processor is running 24x7 all year, the NOx and particulate emissions are only 9% of the limits set by the Oregon state DEQ for Plas2Fuel's plant in Tigard.

source: http://www.deq.state.or.us/news/publicnotices/uploaded/100120_755_34-9514-PNE-02262010-AQ.pdf

But the Tigard site produces how many barrels per year? Because the math above assumes 100% capacity for JBI, which is roughly 200 tons of plastic per day. So if JBI only processes 20 tons/day (46,000 bbl/yr), then the NOx emissions are less than 1% of what Oregon will allow Plas2Fuel to emit, or only 12% of what they are expected to emit.

How about output quality?

Taken from the PDF above:

"The noncondensable gases (gaseous emissions) are captured and ducted to a thermal oxidizer air pollution control device for combustion."
--> JBI captures & compresses all off-gases for re-use and sale

"The proposed facility will produce a synthetic crude oil-like product" --> JBI will produce pure diesel & pure gasoline (separated)

"The finished product is a gel-like substance at normal room temperature"
--> on this board aka "p2o slurry" that "cannot possibly be sold"

Folks what we have here, is a game-changer!
