   @scalar @DW2 @weaf tbh all the process does is heat up the plastic until it reverts back to a usable form of hydrocarbon. you get the same effect from just burning the plastic in facilities designed to handle complete combustion, just that "recycling" is the name of the game with special interests.
   Edit: I'm thinking of a different process, specifically pyrolysis

     @Heil_Honkler @scalar @DW2 @weaf According to their claims, it might actually be a useful process and not one that exists solely because 'green'.
