14 Acquisition International - Issue 11 2022 May22337 Most Influential Emerging Technologies Businesswoman 2022: Julie Conti Plastic is causing severe environmental, social, economic, and health crises globally. We have become addicted to single-use plastic, with over one million plastic bottles being purchased around the world per minute, and up to five trillion plastic bags being used and thrown away annually. Vice President of PlastikGas, Julie Conti, alongside her team, is on a mission to curb this abuse to our planet and help mother nature to heal herself from the damage of plastic waste by creating an alternative fuel in the face of an ever-shrinking natural fuel supply. ndeed, the aim of PlastikGas is to provide a solution to the global problem that is plastic waste by converting plastic waste into useable fuel – with no environmental contamination, and all while restoring ecological balance worldwide. It is the only company in the world that can processall seven typesof plasticandmakesixdifferent fuels simultaneously without additional refining – gasoline, diesel, kerosene, paraffin, PLG, and coal, with no emission or catalyst. It is the first to bring 102 octane gasoline and cetane 55 diesel to the market at an industrial scale. Other companies that convert plastic to fuel can only use two to three types of plastic, making only one type of fuel, naphtha, which then has to be trucked to a refinery (PlastikGas’ fuel is ready for the end-user immediately) for a further refining process to only produce diesel with about a 60% yield (PlastikGas has a 100% yield – and its plant is built to operate at an industrial level, not a garage plant like most others). From its bases in Dallas, Quito, and Barcelona, PlastikGas builds processing plants, licensing anyone its proprietary plastic to fuel conversion technology. It designs and builds clients’ plastic waste conversion plants on their own land, anywhere around the world, and its construction company and team of engineers will assist in the campus build out of the plastic waste conversion plant, as well as provide 12 months of operational support. The plant will be up and running in six to nine months and the ROI is 12 to 24 months, depending on the size of the plant purchased. I For those who are interested in investing in a PlastikGas processing plant, it does require a substantial initial investment, including the purchase of the plant in addition to building the infrastructure and hiring the personnel to maintain the plant. Infrastructure includes site preparation, construction of support facilities, fencing, and security and shredder, to name a few. Additionally, as the owner, you will be in charge of all aspects of the plant including obtaining feedstock supply, fuel production, offtake, and sales. The success and ROI are proportionate to hard work, business acumen, and leadership effectiveness. PlastikGas takes pride in getting to know its plant owners through an extensive selection process. Competitive applicants will show evidence of financial integrity and stewardship, proven business leadership and business acumen, an entrepreneurial spirit, a growth mindset, and strong character. As Vice President of PlastikGas, Julie gives us an insight into the company’s greatest achievement so far: “Bringing this technology to the forefront and making it available to the general public in order to build as many PlastikGas plants as possible in order to rid the world of plastic!” She goes on to tell us about what she’d say to others who are looking to take the same career route as herself: “This is a great time to enter into this industry; the technology is exciting and the world is drowning in plastic along with a shortage of fuels. My advice would be to talk to as many people as you can to try to get your local recycling companies involved. Look for investors. PlastikGas will build the plant and deliver it to your location – we will teach you how to operate it and support you for years to come.” Ultimately, PlastikGas’ vision is to provide a solution to the global problem of plastic waste by building plastic to fuel conversion plants worldwide – In addition to establishing PlastikGas USA, PlastikGas Latin America, and PlastikGas Europe, it will have 100 or more plants built worldwide by 2030.
