Scion, you're right: garbage in, garbage out.

So if the plastic is "dirty", say 2% (coloring agents, metal, glass, etc.) then 2% will not produce oil.

But all the plastic in there (dirty or clean) is still plastic -- a hydrocarbon. And it all gets converted (1kg = 1 litre).

same amount of oil in dirty stinky plastic as there is in clean plastic - perhaps a tiny amount of extra residual.

When you have a feedstock composed of "post consumer dirty smelly plastic that would normally wind up in a landfill.." you will get nowhere near those results.

So you agree that the process works.

I don't know which reactor you're stating there, but it isn't JBII's reactor......kinda irrelevant, huh?.......z
