From Plastic to Oil

The processor uses its own off-gases as fuel (approximately 10-12% of process output); minimal energy is required to run the machine. Only 53 kWh electricity is required to run the fans, pumps and small motors. No electricity is used in the transformation of the plastic to fuel. Natural gas is only used on start-up to heat the reactor – once the processor is running, the reactor is heated with its own off-gases.

video is 5 years old.

social scientists would say that if the science behind this machine works as advertised, the price of scrap plastic should roughly equal the the cost of crude oil, but that is not the case.

I did notice the age of the video.......I'm thinking there's a process they leave out (eg refining)
