Once again.. try to stay up to speed SteveF. This is not "new" information.

The "20-ton" processor shown to many AGM attendees can digest about 1 metric ton (1000kg) of plastic in about 5 minutes. Count 20 tons in 2 hours. Given the low residue (which of course depends on the input) you don't have to clean it out before several "batches" (although it will run in continuous mode). So 60 tons a day is very feasible even taking into consideration the clean-out. So even with maintenance and other down-time, you can see that 20 tons/day is a conservative estimate, and has been the number JBI has given from the start. And THAT is what the math was based on: 20 tons/day.
