> Why don't the fuel producers do this? I recall reading about some of them looking into it but running into issues ensuring a "clean" recycled plastic supply at the scales they need. Can't seem to find the article in my history but there's a ton of varied results I'm seeing from searches talking about the idea of recycling plastic. Example: https://www2.afpm.org/forms/store/ProductFormPublic/sum-21-35-plastic-recycling-and-refining-in-the-circular-economy https://www2.afpm.org/forms/store/ProductFormPublic/sum-21-3... I think one of the main issues was, at least in the US, chlorinated plastic (e.g. PVC) ends up in the bulk supply of used plastics through negligence/malice/whatever and even at a few percent ends up creating some pretty corrosive compounds which are difficult/expensive to remove before they damage the equipment. Looks like people are working on that issue too though: https://www.power-technology.com/features/plastic-pyrolysis-fuel-from-waste-plastic/ https://www.power-technology.com/features/plastic-pyrolysis-...
