@dianea So true. This is the reality people don't want to hear. Even in perfect industrial conditions, you’re only getting a 15% mix before the quality falls off a cliff. We aren't "recycling" plastic into new bottles. We are slowly downcycling it into a gooey, unusable blob until it eventually ends up in the dumpster anyway. It’s a delay tactic, not a solution.
