DD:   Stovers, and Gasification people, 
 
 This topic is better suited for the gasification list if someone  wants to 
forward it to that. I tried to do it but it may bounce.  
My first thoughts on this subject of plastic to  fuel, go to the huge mass 
of floating plastic out in the Pacific Ocean.  I  wish someone would finance 
building a large floating platform on some old ocean  going barges and 
construct a refinery. The raw material is free in international  waters and 
probably would cost less than pumping, shipping and then refining  conventional 
crude oil. The finished synthetic petroleum distillate products can  be 
shipped and sold at a premium to any developed island nearby, 
    The reserve of raw plastic in the Pacific Ocean  would even be a 
renewable resource as more plastic is constantly being dumped  and washed into the 
pacific basin. This would even be a great project for one of  the major oil 
companies to invest in. Probably among the largest untapped oil  reserves 
in the world, Centrally located to pacific rim markets. The only place  you 
can produce oil and clean up the planet in a big way at the same time.

Incredible, cannot help but think about the DeLorean from  the movie Back 
to the Future, powered by waste. 
One day, we also might have stoves running on plastic. Oh  wait, it already 
exists :)
