● Thermal Process at ambient pressure and 370-420 (Degrees Celsius)

● NSR Fuel Energy input = 15-20 kWh US$ 1.65 - 2.20 (excluding overhead)

● Energy output = 55-60 kWh US$ 6.05 – 6.60

● 2.90-3.00 Kg of Plastics = 3.8 litter = 1 gallon in Lab Scale (Commercial scale is would be less than US$ 1.00 per gallon)

Present Price:

● Gasoline = US$ 2.50-3.00 per gallon, Energy output: 35-40 kWh

● Diesel: US$ 3.00-3.50 per gallon

● Aviation Fuel: US$ 8.00-10.00 per gallon

Waste Plastics in USA:

● 30 M Metric Tons of Waste Plastics is produced per year (Source: www.bostonpost.com)

● 1 Metric Ton = 8-9 Barrels of NSR Fuel

● 1 Barrel = 42 gallons in USA

● 30 M x 9 = 270 M of barrels of NSR fuel

● 270 M x 42 = 11,3400 M = 11.3 B gallons of NSR fuel

● NSR Fuel will reduce 3-6 % of USA foreign oil dependency.

● 30 M M Ton of Plastic = 163 M barrel of Crude Oil need to produce

Partnership with Plastics Industries:

One Plastic Bag = 10 ml of NSR Fuel

100 Plastics Bags = 1000 ml of NSR Fuel

Using this fuel, one can drive 7-10 miles or produce 13-15 kwh electricity

The electricity produced can light 130 -150 bulbs for hr ( 1 light = 100 watts)

Creating Job in USA

In USA (Source: US Census Bureau)

● 25,000 Town / Municipalities

● 1200 Cities (Population of more than 100,000)

● 50 States

► If each of the 1200 cities creates 50 jobs, 60,000 jobs will be created in the USA alone.

► The jobs are secure; there will be a perpetual need for these employees.
