A rendering of the nation's first commercial-scale plastics to fuel plant in Ashley, IN.
ASHLEY, IN—Brightmark Energy of San Francisco has commenced construction on what it terms as the nation's first commercial-scale plastics to fuel facility here.
The company says the Ashley facility will be the first of its kind to take mixed waste single-use plastics and convert them into usable products at commercial scale. The facility will convert approximately 100,000 tons of plastics into more than 18 million gallons a year of ultra-low sulfur diesel and naphtha blend stocks and nearly six million gallons a year of commercial grade wax each year.
