We emit 40 gigatonnes of CO2 annually, and our annual production of plastic is less than 0.4 gigatonnes. Systemically, it's a mere blip. The projected sustainable level is probably 4-8 gigatonnes.
Depending on the length of the hydrocarbon, the mass ratio will be close to 1:6 hydrogen:carbon.
Bizarre purist argument against a method of power production that keeps fossil fuels in the ground.
Do you have expertise about the difference between incineration and various pyrolysis / gasification methods or are you just blanket dismissing this because it produces energy in a form you don't like? Energy has to come from somewhere.
