A 5% plastic content with wood will double the BTU.  "Legal" is relative to the machinery it is used in.

   1. Re: Oil from plastic waste (Energies Naturals C.B.)
Hallo J.Paul,

the aim of liquifying plastics is often to use it in engines, that's why the relatively high cost of el. input could be justified. 
How are the chances to use some other heat source and transfer it via thermal oils?

> Better yet use the waste plastic (thermal set plastics rather then resin set) as a binder in pelletization of wood waste where lignens present are insufficient to bind saw dust/shavings or chips (Such as waste coming from kiln dried wood sources). (The energy equation is far better)

Is this legal for domestic pellets?
