Reply #33: TDP plants will be very profitable. [View All]

Remember, the oil "bust" won't be sudden. As oil becomes more scare it's price will go up and the demand for TDP plants will also go up. TDP plants don't require high tech to build. It is just old fashioned plumbing technology. Pipes, valves, boilers, pressure tanks, etc. As they show greater profit, more will be built. The oil companies will be in the lead in building them, as it will mean money for them. They would much rather sink some money into a new TDP plant, (guaranteed to produce oil) than in an expensive offshore test well (that may not find any oil). Once the oil if produced by TDP, it then goes into the system as does petroleum. No difference, except that TDP oil is cleaner.

They can be built quickly too, once the first few plants are built and get the bugs worked out. And they will be cheaper than many current methods of disposing of waste. How much does a landfill cost to operate? The trash company would quickly consider contracting with TWC to build a TDP plant, sell the oil (making money), and save the cost of operating a landfill.
