Technology Brief Scenario
Natural State Research, Inc. (NSR) has developed an innovative and unique
technology to produce alternative hydrocarbon liquid fuel from almost all
types of solid waste plastic materials. The technology is environmentally
friendly. NSR can produce approximately 1.3 liters of fuel from one
kilogram of waste plastic. The exact yield depends on the type of waste
plastic, and the grade of fuel desired (unleaded gasoline, naphtha chemical,
low sulfur diesel, Aviation/Jet fuel, fuel oil, heating oil or light gases such
as methane, ethane, propane and butane).

Present Price:
● Gasoline = US$ 2.50-3.00 per gallon; Energy output: 35-40 kWh
● Diesel: US$ 3.00-3.50 per gallon
● Aviation Fuel: US$ 5.00-6.00 per gallon
Driving an Automobile with NSR Fuel
• As ultra high quality crude, the market can easily absorb 100% of NSR’s fuel
products.
• NSR seeks to cultivate collaborative agreements with municipalities to build fuel-
processing plants that are an integral part of their waste plastic processing and vehicle
fueling systems.
• NSR seeks to offer its technology in a franchise / licensing format. Each locally owned
franchise / license would be able to build its own fuel production plant.
• NSR seeks to work with large Army bases, Airlines, Air force, DOE, USADA, NASA,
Aviation industries, Plastic industries, and Naval ships in converting their plastic waste
into reusable fuel. Not only this processes waste, which is a costly process, this recovers
economically viable fuel usable in standard internal combustion engines. Example:
U.S. Navy – initial takes 50K tons ramping up to 550K (West Coast) $1.55 billion cost
saving to the Navy.
Business Model
NSR's product can compete unsubsidized with Crude Oil as
low as $30/bbl (approximately $0.75/gal.).
Feedstock assured by offering $45/ton for waste plastic that
costs an average of $25/ton for landfill disposal.
NSR plans to license their technology as well as having a
company owned and operated plants.
Modular plants with an annual capacity of 25K tons of
plastic would have a capital cost of $16.00 million, produce
8.5 million gallons of fuel and $25.5 million/yr. EBIT after
2.5 yrs. Completion Plant needs 2.5 yrs time.

Industry
There are very few waste plastic’s to fuel competitors (less than 0.001%).
NSR will compete with greater product yield, greater flexibility both in terms of Feedstock (types of plastics),
product (types of fuel), and lower capital costs.
Preliminary external analysis of NSR’s fuel indicates that this preserve’s aviation-type fuel. This offers a high
potential of return on investment. Initial tests also show 17% higher vehicle mileage with NSR’s fuel when
compared with commercial gasoline. This provides competitive economic advantages for NSR’s fuels over the
conventional fossil fuels. In addition to the unique advantages in its environmentally friendly source for
alternative energy.
Ozmotech and Envion are a few companies that are working in this area.
NSR’s advantage is that unlike the other companies NSR uses simple thermal conversion process, which
results less operating costs.
NSR’s technology is also different from the other companies, because NSR can produce more than one type of
fuel from waste plastics.
All known competitors use pyrolysis and under vacuum.

1 Ton Waste Plastic = ~8 Barrels Fuel
= 8 X 42 gallons
= 336 gallons
If 1 gallon selling cost is $3.80 then 336 gallon X $ 3.80 = $ 1,276.80
Five days production = 336 X 5
= 1,680 gallons
If 1 gallon selling cost $3.80 then 1,680 gallon X $ 3.80 = $ 6,384.00

3.215 Ton of Waste Plastic = 22.50-25.72 Barrel of fuel for 1 Hour
1 Hour 3.215 Ton Waste Plastic = 945.21 – 1080.24 gallons of Diesel fuel
1 Day = 77.16 Ton Conversion X 7 -8 Barrel’s = 540.12 -617.28 Barrel’s

NSR Competitive Advantages
Other plastic recycling technologies have a narrow band of plastics
that can be utilized (usually #1 and #2).
Generally, #3 through #7 is a costly disposal problem. NSR can
use #1 through #7.
NSR’s technology is designed to be cheaper and simpler than
pyrolysis (virtually to all other fuel competitors).
We are more flexible in terms of both input (types of plastic) and
output (types of fuels).

Inventor
Dr. Moinuddin Sarker, PhD, MCIC, FICER, MInstP, MRSC,
FARSS has developed an innovative thermal degradation or de-
polymerization or distillation process for the conversion of waste
plastics into hydro-carbon fuel (Low Sulfur Diesel). He is the Chief
Scientist in charge of his science team. He has lectured throughout
the U.S. and Canada, sharing his new technology with industry and
government leaders. His research converts approximately one ton of
waste plastic into over 330 gallons of Diesel Fuel, at a cost of about
$0.50-$0.75 per gallon. The fuel delivers greater energy potential,
per unit volume, burning cleaner and resulting in higher mileage per
gallon than commercially available gasoline. His research has been
published in more than 100 publications.
