Hello all.  In typical social sites conversations which I sometimes receive, saw a video/report of a mexican company recycling plastics into fuels; I think I saw it about a year ago and now again.  Being in spanish, may not be of use providing a link which I do not know how to obtain.  Title is "mexicanos convierten plastico en gasolina" At tiktok ;   if you have access to their content.

Company name is Petgas.  Can be a dreamy future or not, your knowledge would be more entitled to analysis and opinions.   

Edited: added.  found a simple version on youtube --->

This would seem to accelerate the transfer of carbon into the atmosphere.  I mean, yes, less plastic micro particle pollution, but overall not a great approach.  The end product, gasoline, is burned and puts carbon dioxide in the air.  At least the oil that is converted into plastic can in principle be sequestered in landfills or recycled into more plastic products.  The whole approach seems regressive, at a time when we should be looking at replacing plastics with biodegradables made from plant sources.  And not burning gas.
