Ich sage nicht, dass ihn jemand bekommen hat, aber er hat in der Nähe täglich gepostet und kam abrupten Stopp. Bitte unterstützen Sie ihn und hoffen Sie, dass er bald zurückkommt #FindnatureJab

In his last post he is saying he’s under attack. RIP
Plastic started as hydrocarbons it is of surprise to NOONE that they can be hydrocarbons again. The question is how safely and cheaply and widely this will work on consumer plastics.
You can turn plastic to gasoline for sure, but would take more energy in chemical processes to make it into usable energy, than what you’d get out of it.
If we can find an algae or something that can consume the plastic, and produce methane or combustible fuel as waste, that would be nice.
I did actually hear about this guy but that’s just too on the nose that he goes inactive on social media after posting this. If an obituary pops up then that’s some creepy ass stuff
I follow him. Thought I saw a recent post of his, but no, I guess not. I hope he’s ok
Same thing happened to the guy that made a car run on water.
Dude needs to release all the patents & fully expose everything on what’s going on
If he keeps hiding it, he’s cooked.
Saw a post of his that said he was seeing black helicopters (if I’m remembering correctly) around his property.
The colonizer dislikes that
There was a local student that wrote a paper on how to make ethanol from sugar cane waste „bagasse“ . Never heard from the student again.
We subsidize so much corn in the US. What is happening to them?
plastics to fuel isnt new, but its not effiecent cost wise
Wow, I’m just seeing this guy. Brilliant idea, I hope he is okay but fear the worst, for it seems any innovation that will change the world is swiftly captured in many different ways.
This is one of those things that sounds surprising and magical to people who don’t understand oil and gas processes. I don’t know his exact method but I know it uses heat. So he’s either reinvented delayed coking, syngas production and FT synthesis, or hydrocracking (those last two unlikely lol. Not easy to control or implement for a layman/startup.)
The oil and gas industry already does this with bitumen which is arguably a lot more difficult to make into useful products that clean plastic waste. It is a novel application though, but as other users have suggested its Energy Return On Energy Invested (EROEI) is likely awful.
Coking is also very dirty and the products you make need a lot of post processing to be useable and up to environmental spec (already a known solved problem for tar sands)
The biggest barrier is likely the manpower to sort plastic and maintain a predictable input stream for your raw material. I think if you follow the problems and their solutions you end up back at arc plasma syngas production from waste… Which is already a thing and has an EROEI of close to 1.
He does this quite often to up the viewer count. Been following him for the last 5-6 years.
Nothing will happen to him! They have no reason! Why? Because plastic is made by oil! This isn’t a solution to replace oil but just encourage the market of oil since plastic come from oil… consequently isn’t a threat to the oil industry… to be honest I wouldn’t be surprised if those invest on him…
We already know how to synthesize gasoline. He’s using pyrolysis, which is already an established process to break down plastic (been used for 1000s of years to make charcoal). His thing seems to be doing it using solar power, but I couldn’t find too much info about exactly what he’s doing.
If it were a net positive then that means it would be profitable. Then that means it would already be happening.
Terrifying. Does his science have merit? If so many bad actors would have reason to silence him.
Ik it would happen they fuckin got him. Damn that was quick
He did that last year too and then made big announcements how his death rumors aren’t true.
He either NEEDS to go into hiding, or has been in hiding. Perhaps something spooked him.
There was a Japanese guy that did something similar a few years back. Plastic waste of most types into a few different fractions of oil. The machine was able to fit on a medium sized table.
Will Survives is another channel on YouTube that very recently went MIA for a month or 2, only for him to end up on 1) the opposite end of the country, 2) doing something entirely different from what he started his channel to do, and 3) suddenly ended up with an ever present girlfriend. Now I’ll admit that the only similarity between him and Plastic Oil Guy is their age and recent/rapid success on social media, and I guess you could say they also advocate for you to “think outside the box” as Will is nominally a homeless dude whose entire channel is about living permanently in the forest (often on federal land).
But if Plastic Oil Guy shows back up in a month or 2 with a twitch gaming channel and a girlfriend constantly bringing him gamersupps and pizza rolls then we know the same thing happened to the both of them
It’s been awhile but one of the last posts I saw from him, he had an accident or there was a fire and I think some of his equipment was destroyed during it. I assumed he hadn’t replaced it yet and didn’t have anything to post
Big Oil will NEVER allow it
