Plastic2Oil featured in Energy Economist discussion of plastic to oil technologies.
The last paragraph:
Haig concluded that gasification routes are preferable because of the greater control over and flexibility with products, but notes that pyrolysis provides the best energy yield with low capital expenditure. He said: “Our analysis suggests that it is now economically viable to convert low grade plastics into fuel. We studied five chemical engineering processes and concluded that three: fast pyrolysis; depolymerization; and gasification with biological treatment provided significant financial returns over a ten-year period.”
Check out the comparison chart at the end.
