This is fucking brilliant! Oil —> Plastic —> Used Plastic —> Oil
However, I am not quite convinced about reducing the CO2 emission. More oil consumption will cause more CO2 emission right?
Life-Altering Energy Conversion Machine of the Day: From Japan’s Blest Corporation comes a revolutionary Mr. Fusion-like device capable of returning plastic material back to its original form: Oil.
From OurWorld:
Blest’s conversion technology is very safe because it uses a temperature controlling electric heater rather than flame. The machines are able to process polyethylene, polystyrene and polypropylene (numbers 2-4) but not PET bottles (number 1). The result is a crude gas that can fuel things like generators or stoves and, when refined, can even be pumped into a car, a boat or motorbike. One kilogram of plastic produces almost one liter of oil. To convert that amount takes about 1 kilowatt of electricity, which is approximately ¥20 or 20 cents’ worth.

Very cool. While I’m not big on using oil for energy, this is clearly a great step in the right direction for recycling...
