Reply to comment by Herbert-Quain in Scientists create carbon nanotubes out of plastic waste using an energy-efficient, low-cost, low-emissions process. Compared to commercial methods for carbon nanotube production that are being used right now, ours uses about 90% less energy and generates 90%-94% less carbon dioxide by Wagamaga

For additional context, steel melts at about 2,500 F - less than half the temperature cited in this process.
