I didn't see the show, but I'm confused anyway. Was this a quote from the show? "A surprisingly small number of those plastic bottles are actually recycled, but a new technology might find a new use for them." I see it on the linked website, but if it refers to soda bottles made from PETE I have a problem. It was my understanding that, at least in NY, JBI isn't authorized to process "those plastic bottles". Am I right about that? Was the processing of recyclable household PETE actually emphasized in the show? From the Air Facility Permit: JBI will carefully review potential sources of recycle grade plastic for use as a raw material feedstock. This material will be acquired from the industrial market place. Plastic types which have been determined to be acceptable for utilization as feedstock include: Polypropylene (PP), Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE), and High Density Polyethylene (HDPE).
