PTOI Plastic2Oil Inc (PK)

JBI, Inc. (the "Company") (OTCQX:JBII) announces the successful completion of its final P2O Stack Test performed by Conestoga-Rovers and Associates ("CRA") on the Company's Plastic2Oil ("P2O") commercial processor. The stack test, which is a measure of emissions from the processor vent, was conducted by CRA beginning on December 5, 2011, with completion on December 6, 2011. The New York Department of Environmental Conservation ("NYSDEC") was also present during testing.

Three stack tests were performed on the existing commercial processor with a pre-melt system. Unwashed, unsorted waste plastics, including various industrial plastics and gas tanks from scrap cars, were used as feedstock for the testing. This type of feedstock is consistent with the day-to-day waste plastic that the processor is currently converting into fuel.

The stack tests were conducted at feed rates of 3,258 lbs/hr, 3,233 lbs/hr and 3,932 lbs/hour respectively. Ultimately, the test results proved that emissions decreased with increased feed rates, further validating that P2O is a highly "green," clean and scalable process. The addition of the pre-melt system, which was designed and installed in Q3, greatly improved feed rates for the process. 

Draft emissions data was provided by CRA staff following the completion of each test.  Emissions were significantly reduced through more efficient and higher combustion of the off-gas generated by the process.  

Final average emissions for 3,923 lbs/hr were 15.97% O2, 3.05% CO2, 3.1ppm (parts per million) CO, 15.1 ppm NOx, 2.88 ppm TNMHC and 0.02ppm of SO2. The NOx emission was approximately one-fifth that of the original P2O processor tested 1 year ago.  

The P2O processor did not have any stack filters or scrubbers.  

"In-spec" end-user fuels produced were also tested and verified as ultra-low sulphur.

Management anticipates receiving final reports from CRA after audit and peer reviews of the testing are concluded. These reports and permit modifications, which allow a higher feed rate, will be filed in accordance with NYSDEC permit regulations.

The Company believes that the successful stack test results will aid significantly when seeking permit exemptions in other U.S. states. Additionally, the Company believes that these results will contribute to maximizing production at the existing New York processing plant.
