Burning plastic in the traditional manner creates extremely polluting byproducts, as evidenced by the black smoke produced by the cup. But this didn't thwart Levendis, who noted that plastic contains the same amount of energy per pound as premium fuel.I was not aware that there is a "good" way to burn plastic.

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
