Plastic to Oil Fantastic OW2.0 - United Nations University

The United Nations University (UNU) is dedicated to the generation and transfer of knowledge, and the strengthening of individual and institutional capacities in furtherance of the purposes and principles of the Charter of the United Nations.

The Japanese company Blest has developed one of the smallest and safest plastic-to-oil conversion machines out on the market today. It's founder and CEO, Akinori Ito is passionate about using this machine to change the way people around the world think about their plastic trash. From solving our landfill and garbage disposal issues to reducing our oil dependancy on the Middle East, his machine may one day be in every household across Japan.
While holding up a bag of trash, he states, "It's a waste to throw away, isn't it? This is a treasure."

I don't know and don't care. The discussion is pointless.

However one can make the case that Agilyx provides an excellent example of what the output is like without the use of a catalyst.

Agilyx produces thick goo that has to be heated to be pumped. JBI produces #2 spec fuel, #6 heating oil and or light naphtha as required by the customer.

Seems like a pretty good demonstration of how effective the catalyst is for JBI.
