In seriousness, I do think that's part of the difference in beliefs here. I would certainly like to hear more of your opinion on that subject.
I'm going to discount Crayola markers because about half of a marker is a damp cotton wick inside the marker which holds the ink. While I'm sure pyrolyzing markers will yield a type of oil, the huge cotton component would certainly mean that the resulting oil can't be worth any more than oil made by pyrolyzing regular household trash.
I don't know exactly what type of plastic Chrysler and others may or may not have sent to JBI, but production at JBI has ground to a halt or a near halt. Were those plastics processed just for further testing or did JBI actually make money by converting those into a more valuable 'fuel'?? There's no information about that which was made available to anyone. If it was worthwhile, why did JBI stop??
Are we on the same page that what comes out of the processor has to be worth more than what goes in otherwise the process is worthless? If so, why do you think plastic feedstock is cheap enough and the corresponding output oil is valuable enough to where the process is worthwhile?
