I can fill in some of those blanks....

Agilyx has claimed costs of $42 per barrel. Presumably that's mostly due to the high number of employees their process requires.

Agilyx has named the refinery once before, though they haven't repeated it so I suspect they didn't have legal permission.

Agilyx claims to be able to make and sell profitably.

Agilyx claims their next machine will cost $25 million to make (lol)

Anyway, competition wise they are a joke. Validation wise, they confirm how easy it is to make a profit. If their super expensive process can do it, JBII should be able to in their sleep.

Allow me to offer an analogy..


There are people in the world who deny scientific evidence due to what they believe. For an example, 'evolution'. Somehow they feel that if they can punch a tiny hole in a scientific theory, it somehow validates their belief in a 'creation' fairytale.

There is no shortage of companies that have gone down the JBI road of turning garbage into fuel. It only becomes a problem when the bottom line is considered, to wit, JBI's work is all in front of them.


says it sells but not to who and not much (everyone on iHub wants to know who JBI is going to sell to, so I thought I'd point this out)

Oh boy-- all that stuff is available. Please search on Agri-Plas and Agilyx (Plas2Fuel too). Also call them-- I called both. Rawnoc supposedly called Agilyx.

What is the main difference? Feedstock dictates the process and yield. What appears to be unlike P2O, Agilyx can conform to the specific plastic type of the customer (their acceptable plastic type and condition appears to run the full gambit from waste to scrap). P2O appears to be boxing itself into a niche piece of the plastic market.

You may even want to call SynCrude (New York "neighbor") and ask them why they are going with Agilyx-- just a thought...
