Yeah it’s like 30% less heat input to melt cullet and you save raw materials. The problem is the quality impact. It’s a similar problem with paper recycling. Part of that is the fault of consumer preference, and I think that’s changing.

Some info on the challenges

A 12 oz glass bottle takes roughly 1100 BTUs to melt the glass for. That is conveniently, roughly, 1.1 cubic ft of natural gas.

60,000 BTU/hr is a very common size for natural gas HVAC furnaces. That’s basically a bottle a minute, just to give people an idea.

There are other inputs of course, but furnace net efficiency is around 2200 BTU/lb

That seems like a trick that only works the first time

Licenses, not patents. Same effect though. Classic embrace, extend, extinguish.

But have you seen Rampart?

Same, just noting that they weren’t a default option in my ddns plugin. I’m sure that’s changed since 2023?

Maybe one day but for now it’s just green washed big oil

At present, however, just 2 per cent of the 600 billion cubic metres of hydrogen manufactured each year around the world is produced by water electrolysis, while 98 per cent is produced from natural gas, with carbon dioxide as a by-product.

More than 90 per cent of this hydrogen is used as a building block for fertilisers or is consumed within the oil, refining and wider petrochemicals industry.

He’s looking for dumb money

Where do you get the H2 from?
