Dioxins are generally the biggest emission concerns and they are prevented by higher temperature burns. Plastic is also likely higher in energy density which could potentially both make it more economical than a given baseline unsorted garbage depending and serve to keep the temperatures high. Although ironically not being /very hot/ when burning organic matter risks dioxin formation between about 200 and 600C.
