this is the greatest thing ever

devonapple brought to my attention this little device that, by judicious application of microwaves, extracts oil and gas from plastics, rubber, and just about anything that has a hydrocarbon base, and leaves a remainder of pure carbon.  The video linked therein is a mediocre production, but it's still impressive.

When it comes to manufacturing and engineering companies, I pretty well expect them to have embarassing websites. If they have beautiful web sites, that's a sign that the marketing people have eaten their brains.

Also, yep, they have a tripod. Can't you tell from how the camera always stayed in exactly one place?

What does video production values have to do with whether or not the thing works anyway? Apparently they've had an order for it, and they name the customer--Gershow Recycling in New York. You could call them up and ask how the thing's working out.
