It is a phenomenal concept. However, sending landfill waste all the way to one of these refiners just wouldn't seem to be cost-effective for now.

I think the ticket would be to put one of these refineries on site at say peerskill in NYC. In fact, the way you would do it would be to put these plants on site of every municipal sewage and garbarge disposal unit of every large city in the country.

Speaking of offal why not put one of these plants next to DNC Headquarters?

You know, you might not be too far off! If the technology is sound and the cost of constructing a refinery could be "manageable" then lots of municipalities could generate their own fuel needs, for transportation, heating and industry.
