What heat source do they use to heat the plastic to 800c? Does the resulting gas burn hot enough to add heat, or is the process a net loss as far as cost vs. output?

You can crank up the heat on an incinerator so high so whatever is placed in the furnace is almost instantly disintegrated! I AM THE INCINERATOR and have come for your plastic straws
