EDITED: If you go back to the original goal of JBI doing 20 tons per day, and if one assumes it takes 8 hrs to process 20 tons, then one can calculate JBI can process a minimum of 2.5 tons of plastic per hour.

Connecting this with the recent PR, we produce 0.81 lbs of NOx per hour and, thus, JBI likely generates 0.32 lbs of NOx per ton of plastic.

Comparing JBI's 0.32 to Plas2Fuel's 0.84, it seems JBI's is much cleaner, at least on the NOx front, by more than a factor of 2.5.

Note, we may be much better than even that given that some have reported that we can process 20 tons in just a few hours. But, until it can be shown to be true, I am going conservative and assuming we will only do 20 tons per day and that the 20 tons takes a full 8 hours to process.

By the way Beer, did you see anything in the permit regarding controls on the type of plastic used?
