Revisiting Koyfman’s “Oil Killer” Teased for 11,300% Gains

Koyfman's pitching a special report in ads for his Microcap Insider, "The NH3 Revolution: How a Tiny Toronto Startup Beat a $3.3 Trillion Industry." -- So, who is it? Updated Thinkolator results below...

By Travis Johnson, Stock Gumshoe, February 2, 2022

We continue to get lots of questions the Microcap Insider teaser pitch for an “Oil Killer” (sometimes also pitched as “Liquid Electricity”)… and this is a story I covered for the first time about a year ago, but I’m taking a fresh look for you today. The ad is undated, and from what I can tell it remains almost word-for-word the same as it was in February of 2021… but the story has changed quite a bit, so let’s dig in and see what’s going on.

Here’s how the ad gets started:

“A Little-Known Fuel Is Set to Revolutionize the Energy Sector in the Coming Years โ€” This has NOTHING to do with Batteries, Hydrogen, or Nuclear Fusion”

And it leads off with a patent for “production ammonia from air and water,” which is the basic promise — ammonia (NH3) is mostly a fertilizer, so producing it more cheaply or efficiently is always welcome, but the pitch here is for using ammonia as a fuel.

That idea is not brand new, ammonia has been proven to work as a fuel in both internal combustion engines and in fuel cells, and chemical methods for producing ammonia have been around for more than 100 years, but fixing nitrogen from the atmosphere to create ammonia is a fairly energy-intensive process, and there’s been a meaningful push for creating “green ammonia” in recent years, both from “reverse fuel cells” and from just replacing the energy input for “brute force” conversion of ammonia (using solar power, for example, instead of other energy to create the pressure required to make the old Haber-Bosch process work).

And that’s what Koyfman is teasing today, some little Canadian company that has a machine and a technology for generating ammonia… and which therefore could slot itself in as a “green” business that generates ammonia in modular machines, where it is needed (for farms, for refueling stations, for clean energy storage, etc.), and perhaps, he hopes, license that technology and become a bigger player in the energy business.

Is this just the latest iteration of a dream we’ve seen touted before (like this story about portable ammonia factories a decade ago?), or is this the real breakthrough that will make a leap forward possible?

Here’s some of the pitch…

“This disruptive invention was developed in cooperation with the University of Ontario, and one sub-$1 Toronto-based company is behind it all.

“Right now, itโ€™s preparing this revolutionary technologyโ€™s full-scale product launch.

“As soon as itโ€™s released I expect it to almost instantly disrupt nearly every aspect of the $5 trillion global energy market.

“Because this technology could unlock an unlimited supply of cheap zero-emission fuel.”

And apparently ammonia is pretty impressive as a fuel…

“… this is a universal fuel. It can be used for everything.

“It can power your car…

“Propel cruise ships…

“And thrust aircraft.

“These are not hypothetical examples. This has been happening for years.”

And then, of course, we get to the “one tiny company” bit of the pitch…

“A New Energy Hierarchy Has Emerged and This Fuel Is the Undisputed King

“As I said, the science behind this fuel is NOT new.

“Chemists have known how to produce it for over 100 years. Half of the worldโ€™s population would not be alive today if it wasnโ€™t for this discovery.

“The problem was they couldnโ€™t figure out how to produce it on the mass scale required to fulfill our energy needs.

“Thatโ€™s what this Canadian companyโ€™s invention is about. It puts this Nobel Prize-winning discovery within reach of the mass market.

“Iโ€™ve been investigating this company since it was reserved for insiders as an exclusive private placement.

“Recently, this opportunity opened up to everyday Americans.”

So that’s the spiel, a secret stock, a new process for creating ammonia, a little Canadian company, and riches await… so what’s the stock?

We do get a few specific clues, beyond the partially obscured patent image they share… the ad is not dated, but it’s extremely similar to one we covered about a year ago, and the clues are the same:

“As of this publication, the stock was trading at a barely $15 million market cap.”

OK, so we can be pretty sure that’s not true anymore — even just recommending a $15 million penny stock to a midsize newsletter will usually cause the price to go bonkers, teasing it out to thousands of other folks, some of whom will subscribe and/or sleuth out the answer and want to buy it, quite often leads to a really big pop.

More of the clues are in the intro to this specific company’s story:

“Why donโ€™t we run our cars, airplanes, and ships on ammonia already?

“Well, unfortunately, the Haber-Bosch process, aside from helping to create the modern world, is also quite dirty and expensive.

“It requires enormous amounts of heat, pressure, and fossil fuels โ€” such as coal, oil, or natural gas โ€” to make NH3 in chemical plants….

“Creating NH3 this way consumes so much energy that it’s simply not economically feasible to use it as a mass-consumption fuel.

“When compared with the abundance of cheap, easy-to-refine oil in the ground, ammonia as fuel just didn’t make sense.

“And that’s the way things have been for more than a century right up until a few months ago…

“Because one inventor from a small town in Ontario found a way to produce NH3 without using any fossil fuels at all.

“His machine generates it from nothing but air and water.”

Well, air, water and some kind of catalyst, one assumes, whether that’s brute force energy or something else. Nitrogen molecules (N2) in the air don’t split themselves and re-form with hydrogen to make NH3 (which is ammonia), they need a push.

Other hints?

“This invention has caught the attention of the highest levels of government and business…

“Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau…

“Former Ontario Environmental Commissioner Gord Miller…

“And Shark Tankโ€™s Kevin Oโ€™Leary all have praised this upgrade.

“Its inventor traveled to Saudi Arabia to meet a Saudi prince wishing to jumpstart the ammonia revolution in the kingdom.”

And, of course, that inventor has something to do with this “one tiny company”:

“The tiny company Iโ€™m going to reveal today teamed up with the inventor of this upgrade. Together, theyโ€™re preparing the full-scale product launch thatโ€™s set to happen very soon.”

And some clues about the inventor…

“Before Roger started working on his invention, he spent his career as a CEO. His company produced pharmaceutical ingredients for sale around the world. One of them was ammonia.

“With decades of experience in the ammonia market, Roger realized its potential as an alternative fuel.

“It took him almost nine years before he had an active prototype. But today, heโ€™s driving a converted Ford F-350 that runs on NH3 heโ€™s generating in his garage.”

The ad describes the “early prototype” and even shows a photo, and talks about how this machine pulls in air (for nitrogen) and water (for hydrogen) and combines them “in a cyclinder” to make ammonia….

“A pilot system built and housed at the University of Ontario, Institute of Technology is currently producing over 500 liters of NH3 per day. Thatโ€™s more than 50 times the amount of ammonia made by earlier versions of this machine.”

And yes, it’s more than air and water…

“As you might have guessed, this whole process requires electricity. But as strange as it may sound, thatโ€™s exactly what makes this opportunity so exciting… “

Which is the energy storage aspect of this story… if you can use electricity from green sources (solar, wind, etc.) to create ammonia, then what you’re effectively doing is storing that potential energy in the form of the chemical bonds of NH3, and that ammonia can later be burned to release the energy, in a generator, converting it back to electricity.

That’s true of hydrogen gas, too, by the way, and we certainly hear a lot about hydrogen’s potential as a greener fuel. Hydrogen can be created using electrolysis (using electricity to split water into hydrogen and oxygen), with hydrogen then available as a fuel either for burning or for fuel cells — I have no idea what the different efficiency levels of these storage techniques might be, or the relative appeal of those two fuels for different purposes. Hydrogen scares people because it’s explosive, ammonia because it’s corrosive, toxic and stinky.

Koyfman has some other exciting potential to pitch, including the idea that this system might be a beneficiary of clean energy tax credits, just like the electric vehicle makers. But the part we’re interested in is the immediacy, of course — lots of little R&D projects are in development, they often sound impressive and get featured in science magazines, what investors usually want to know is whether they’re actually going to create a product that can be sold, and when.

Here’s how he describes the timeline:

“After extensive experimentation, the Phase I system first produced NH3 in 2009.

“In 2012, the Phase II pilot system at the University of New Brunswick was completed and operational.

“The Phase III pilot system, built and housed at the University of Ontario, Institute of Technology, was completed in late 2019. It was more than 50 times as effective as Phase II.

“And right now, this company is finalizing Phase IV to further improve system efficiency while lowering capital and operating costs.

“This is expected to be the last step toward a full-scale product launch. When this happens, investors will rush into this stock in droves.”

And the 11,300% bit? That’s just some spitballing based on “what if this became 1% as big as Chevron,” which sounds like a small and achievable goal but is, of course, completely hypothetical…

“Even if it were to capture just one-tenth of 1% of this market through its disruptive innovation, that would still amount to control of a $1.5 billion per year revenue stream.

“That would make this tiny, young company about one-one-hundredth of the size of Chevron, which corresponds to a market capitalization of about $1.7 billion.

“That’s 113 times the size of the company today… meaning that even by the most conservative estimates, early investors could stand to make over 10,000% gains in the coming years.”

So what’s our little Canadian company? Well, that patent that Koyfman partially shows is from 2011, number US2011/0243828A1 … and yes, the patent was granted to inventor Roger Gordon, and the company that he formed to try to commercialize it (including some private fundraising, which it sounds like maybe Koyfman participated in during private placements in 2020) was Green NH3, whose website shows that same working prototype used in the teaser ad (along with Roger Gordon’s ammonia-powered pickup truck).

But Green NH3 isn’t a public company, so we’ve got another step to take to ID this investment — they entered into a letter of intent to be acquired by EEStor Corp in the Summer of 2020, with EEStor being the former Zenn Motors, a failed electric car company headed by Ian Clifford, and then in early 2021 EEStor changed its name to FuelPositive. with the ticker NHHH on the Venture exchange in Canada (so if you’re interested in researching, it’s NHHH.V in Canada or NHHHF OTC in the US).

FuelPositive was clearly the company being teased a year ago when Koyfman made his original pitch about this idea, they had raised a little over a million dollars in a couple private placements, and were tiny, and the impact of Koyfman’s attention was predictably massive — in just a few days, that attention drove the shares from about 13 cents to 26 cents (US), even before yours truly covered the story on February 22 of last year.

But there’s a kicker: despite the fact that the ad is largely unchanged, the deal for FuelPositive to acquire Green NH3 did not go through. This is an excerpt from the MD&A from Fuel Positive’s (then EESTor’s) annual report filing with SEDAR (press release version here)…

“On August 6, 2020, the Company announced it has entered into a letter of intent, pursuant to which it proposes to acquire all of the outstanding share capital of Green NH3 Inc. (โ€œGREEN NH3โ€). Based in Georgetown, Ontario, Canada, GREEN NH3 is a private company involved in research, development and commercialization of zero-emission NH3 fuel, generated from its patented and scalable process.

“Proposed terms of the Acquisition

“Subject to customary due diligence, negotiation of definitive documentation, board and regulatory approvals, in consideration for all of the outstanding share capital of GREEN NH3, the shareholders of GREEN NH3 are entitled to receive common shares of EEStor which will represent 25% of the outstanding share capital of EEStor as of August 6, 2020. EEStor anticipates issuing approximately 48,300,000 common shares to the shareholders of GREEN NH3. Following completion of the acquisition, GREEN NH3 will continue as a wholly owned subsidiary of EEStor. Additional performance related shares will be available to GREEN NH3 shareholders once key performance intellectual property milestones are met….

“On December 31, 2020, the Company announced that the licensing and acquisition of GREEN NH3’s patented technology continues to progress, and technical due diligence for this stage has now been completed.”

But then the acquisition of the “operational technology” took a turn — instead of buying Roger Gordon’s company, Green NH3, Fuelpositive announced a few weeks later that, after further research, they decided that the technology owned by Dr. Ibrahim Dincer and developed at Ontario Tech University was more what they were looking for… so they offered Roger Gordon a (presumably much smaller) deal for his “legacy” work and offered Dr. Dincer and his team 50 million shares of FuelPositive for their green ammonia technology.

And that apparently wasn’t appreciated by Gordon. Up until November of last year, Roger Gordon was making very clear on his Green NH3 website that, “Contrary to the unfounded claims made by certain stock advisors, Roger Gordon has not sold, transferred or licensed any rights to or interest in his patents to any other company in Canada, the USA or elsewhere.” (that language is no longer on Gordon’s Green NH3 website — whether they’ve settled their differences or just don’t want to highlight that now, I don’t know).

So that presumably changes the story a little bit, though I have no way of knowing whether Gordon’s or Dincer’s patents will be the ones that end up being critical to the modular green ammonia synthesizers that FuelPositive is now going to try to develop and sell. They did finalize that deal with Dr. Dincer to offer him 50 million shares (35 million of which they’ve already given him, the rest is due next month), and as of their updates in November they said they had also raised a total of C$12 million to cover the cost of building their first pilot projects and get them through another year.

FuelPositive’s latest update about a timeline for its project, is that they hope to launch with a “demonstration pilot project” at a farm in Manitba that they will deploy in “mid-2022” — the first machine has not yet been built to test it on their own facility, they say they’ve completed the hydrogen system and that the ammonia conversion system is “progressing well”, but the nitrogen system has had COVID-19 supply chain issues. They’re hoping to operate the pilot plant on that farm by sometime later this year, proving that it works and getting some real world results that they can use for more precise analysis of the costs and outputs, and then start taking pre-orders for more systems. They say “assembly line” output will begin in 2023, which sounds awfully optimistic for a company at this phase, but one never knows (they name drop both Tesla and Toyota in describing their ambitious rapid scale-up of manufacturing).

The goal is to essentially build these as modular ammonia factories in shipping containers, so you buy or lease a unit to place on your farm and generate your own ammonia from your solar panels or windmill and your water supply. That next step Koyfman talks about, treating this like energy storage, is probably a bit further off — the most viable path forward is selling this to farmers as a way to replace the big shipments of ammonia that they otherwise have to buy, and to do so in a “green” fashion, getting to the point where you’re using that ammonia to burn in a tractor, or in a generator to create electricity, is a step or two further down the line.

Right now, FuelPositive is very close to the price where it traded when Koyfman was first touting the stock in February of 2021, but they’ve also given shares to their patent owners and sold a bunch of shares to raise the money for their product development, including $7 million raised back in October, so with all those shares outstanding it’s now a ~$50 million company these days (if you don’t count the warrants), no longer a ~$15 million company.

Either way, they’re still very, very small. And, of course, this is also a company that has never had any meaningful revenue in any of its previous guises (Zenn Motors, EEStor, the other small companies EEStor acquired over the years before they refocused on generating green ammonia, or now FuelPositive).

It’s a great idea for daydreaming, and I won’t try to talk you out of wagering on it as a very high-risk speculation, but just be aware that using ammonia for fuel, whether to burn or in fuel cells, is not at all a new idea… and that there are a lot of companies aiming to refine the current processes for creating ammonia and/or using ammonia as an energy feedstock. I have no idea whether distributed NH3 production using small machines like Roger Gordon’s or like the ones FuelPositive is trying to build will be the future (or, indeed, if their patented technology is the best or only way to do that), or whether larger installations that create vast tank farms of ammonia as a more easily transported feedstock for the hydrogen economy will end up being the norm, or whether it will be something completely different.

So that must still the idea being pitched by Alex Kofyman in these ads, and it is a very, very early stage company, and very speculative. I have no idea whether or not it will amount to anything over the next 5-10 years, but over the next few months the stock will mostly move up or down based on whether it gets some “green” attention from somebody else to pile on, and there’s not really any predicting that — penny stock investors are just as irrational as the rest of us, and they do love a story. It had a nice run with Koyfman’s initial burst of attention last year, and he’s pushing the story pretty hard again these days.

If you want to apply some rational financial assessment to this project (not that this often means much for penny stocks), do note that the original deal Green NH3 made to sell itself to FuelPositive was made back when EEStor was trading at about five cents a share, so on the face it of it seemed like Roger Gordon and the Green NH3 folks thought it was reasonable to sell control of their technology for about $2 million in shares (with the shares also giving them a “piece of the action,” of course). Maybe they thought it was worthwhile to join with Ian Clifford for promotional reasons, or just didn’t want to take the next step by themselves so joining as 20% owners of a different company was an easier path to commercialization, maybe they just liked the science and the green goals and wanted someone else to worry about building a commercial product… I don’t know, but that’s a worthwhile bit of context.

Whether Gordon backed out because that wasn’t enough, or FuelPositive really decided they didn’t need his patents, I don’t know, but the deal that Dincer made was effectively very similar — 50 million shares at what in March of 2021 was about 25 cents a share is a higher number, about $12 million (though with the price falling, it’s down to about $9 million now), but again, some context: A patent that is sold for a few million dollars to a tiny penny stock company with no history of product development is not, by itself, going to suddenly blossom into a business that’s 1% the size of Chevron. Maybe it works out, maybe it doesn’t, but so far the developers of the technology have much smaller goals.

The rest of the story, the goal of building a pilot plant (originally it was going to be three pilot plants at different farms, as I recall), is pretty similar to what Green NH3 was pitching as its goal when they were doing private placement fundraising a couple years ago. Again, it’s very early, and essentially nothing has been proven to be economic or scalable by either Green NH3 or now FuelPositive, though FuelPositive has apparently now made some progress in building the next phase of their machine, and may be able to deploy their first pilot plant this year.

So go forth, dear readers, and researchify on this one to your heart’s content — it’s a cool idea and therefore it generates some press attention from time to time, it seems to work, at least in controlled environments, and it’s not particularly well-known. Right now, it’s a R&D project with a prototype in a University lab and a pilot project they’re hoping to build later this year.

So that’s the story now, dear friends — it’s no longer the “Green NH3 being acquired” story that was originally pitched, and indeed Roger Gordon made an effort to remind us all that he didn’t sell or license the patent that Koyfman has been using at the top of his ad, but the basic pitch is the same: FuelPositive is trying to make and sell a green ammonia synthesizer, and once they’ve got the first one built they plan to profit by building a bunch of them to deploy on farms to generate green ammonia for fertilizer… and maybe after that we’ll get to the point where they’re generating fuel for energy storage systems and farm equipment as well. But right now, it’s mostly a plan, some provisional patents that won’t be finalized for a while (2025, they say), a pilot project that is not yet built, and about $10 million in cash that they think will get them through the next 6-12 months of development. If you like the plan and trust the management and agree that’s worth at least $40 million, then you can buy a piece today.

Gencell (Israeli company) are probably well ahead of them. Others are also on the trail, there’s advanced research being done in Australia, and Saudi Arabia already planning ahead for solar farms and ammonia production.

If ammonia fuel is going to be used in vehicles then the obvious first use will be on cargo ships. That’s already being looked at, with likely initial trials using ammonia cargo vessels with retrofitted engines (including double wall pipe and other safety measures). But it is still years away. . .

That, and fixed industrial and power generation settings that will use large-scale renewables for base power needs, including ammonia production for power generation during periods of peak demand or renewable under-performance.

Did not see any information on the amount of energy generated by gasoline vs ammonia vs hydrogen vs propane etc. That info could then be used to extrapolate if this is a viable fuel alternative or just more “blue sky” stock frothing.

Travis, thank you for discussing the “oil Killer” pitch.
In my opinion “green ammonia” is a contradiction in terms. Shipping LNG around the world has already shown that shipping liquified gases is accompanied by quite a bit of gas being released into the atmosphere. That will happen upon filling of the tanks of a ship, leakage during the voyage of the ship and during unloading of the ammonia in the port of destination.
Although ammonia is not a greenhouse gas, the nitrate that is released when ammonia breaks down will also have a detrimental effect on the environment.

LNG runs at far far lower temperatures than liquefied ammonia which only requires -33C, so there are much greater losses of LNG. Liquid ammonia will in future be generated from solar energy plants in e.g. north africa, and shipped to the west where it can be cracked to clean hydrogen close to the point of use e.g. at the ‘gas station’.

Hi Moneyfool: Ammonia is an important chemical feedstock for fertilizer production, cleaning products and a very wide variety of industrial purposes. I think that worldwide production is well above 100 million tons and will likely increase several-fold in the next 20 years. It is already carried by cargo ships all over the world. It is these ships, already used as ammonia carriers, that may be the first vessels retrofitted as ammonia burners.

It is certainly true that ammonia pollutes our air and water and the nitrates mentioned by you are a significant additional source of acidification. Yet most ammonia pollution comes from agriculture and not from industrial or related purposes. This is not likely to change except in relatively small degree. The interesting thing about agricultural ammonia pollution is that systems might be created to harvest the ammonia to replace some of the industrial manufacture of ammonia.

Ammonia as a Hydrogen transport solution is very definitely a way to go. It is already widely and safely transported by ships and trucks so could form a dense carrier for clean hydrogen right up to the point of use at the ‘gas station’. This would give us an alternative to the not so green lithium EV’s that are becoming de riguer. It would also allow for an alternative long term grid energy storage solution. Time shifting available green energy to a time when it wasn’t available. That along with VRFB’s (again I don’t want to see any more Lithium ones) for shorter term energy time shifting.

Hmmm….there already are cars that run on air which are sold in Europe but of course the auto crash test dummies department won’t approve them for sale in U.S. but we all know the oil companies are greasing their palms as how more dangerous are these air light weight cars than the smart cars people cram themselves into sold in U.S. The air cars have pneumatic compressors , kinda like a bigger version that some power tool use so they could easily put front and side air bags in and outside the car in case someone gets hit head on by a 80,000 lb big rig so they bounce down the block snuggly fit between the air bags . Hmmmm note to self … Make a better air bag and make billions . That said judging by AMZN trading this morning down over 6.5% on higher than average volume it seems big $ doesn’t think earnings after bell is going to be great and possibly be another covid casualty perhaps due to supply chain issues and operating expenses due to needing to pay employees more etc. I may follow the money and buy more sqqq on the $ calls in case Nasdaq tanks more after bell and after 5 years after crash and resection bear market is over I can buy Amazon under $1000 maybe. It tanked 95% after dot com bubble burst but it wasn’t profitable then so maybe $1000 to $1500 range this time around

Wow …nasdaq futures were way up over night after AMZN #3 Nasdaq darling was up over $500 a share but jobs report did nothing to change Fed rate hikes and futures turned negative so the sqqq calls are still a hold today it looks like. Once rate hikes take place especially if higher than expected the markets likely will tank in March and eventually see a 50% haircut across the board

As I said before, let’s emphasize efficiency. Rube Goldberg took efficient processes and made them interesting to watch, but wildly inefficient. Look at how government operates. Same thing, and Rube is long dead. Now we all are rubes. Don’t look too closely at the CO2 story . That house of cards is getting very large. I’m looking all the time for opportunities, but I think the way forward is with private companies that aren’t going public. Steer clear of banks, though, like the Federal Reserve.

Wow, that took less than twenty comments before it went off the rails.

Compressed air cars are not being sold commercially anywhere in the world and won’t be until the many bugs and impediments are worked out. Sure, compressed air tech was used to move torpedoes more than a century ago but hey, those were intended to explode unlike a road vehicle with highly charged air pressure vessels.

Steer clear of investing in the Federal Reserve?!?!? OK, sure. Ummm… thanks for the warning. But I want in on the Illuminati when they go public via a SPAC!!!

Thanks, WVermeir, for pointing us at SeaTrade News. Iโ€™m not sure what to think of the idea of floating multiple nuclear reactors aboard a ship to power aboard desalination and ammonia production. Soโ€ฆ free Oxygen, free hydrogen, nuclear reactors, ammonia, plus weather, humans being themselvesโ€ฆ what could go wrong? No regulator anywhere would approve this and even if they did allow it then nobody would insure it. At least I hope not.

But about SeaTrade News, if you look at the article links and then the articles linked to those and so on, you would read that VLACs (โ€œVery Large Ammonia Carriersโ€) fueled exclusively by ammonia are already under construction or contracted for in Korea, Japan, China and Taiwan. Those found in 2 minutes of clicking. I didnโ€™t look past E.Asia references. Plus ammonia bunkering, to refuel ship’s not already carrying ammonia as cargo, across E.Asia. Planning is underway for smaller Panamax and Suezmax ammonia-fueled ammonia carriers. What does a 230,000 ton ship cost to build? I donโ€™t know but itโ€™s a wicked big number and the folks paying it are convinced that demand for ammonia is going to rise dramatically. I was wrong about ammonia fuel for ships and for fixed power and industrial purposes . It is not coming; it is already here.

So I still have my small holding in nhhh.v from about a year ago when we first discussed, it really hasn’t moved significantly but I will continue to hold because of the patents.

Good luck! I am not attracted to this one. Yet it remains pretty clear that development of a process that reduces energy inputs to ammonia production on an industrial scale will be extremely valuable. I’m looking at CF, Yarra and Ammpower now have my doubts there as well. I’ll keep at it.

Alex Koyfmann just teased another Canadian small company which i think just came out yesterday. It’s about the Paris agreement and November 1st and meeting the requirements of all the countries in world to reduce the bad things going into the air, This company in the latest tease will eliminate plastics. I’m sure we will be hearing about this soon.

Eight months later, I’m viewing this infomercial for the first time but it seems this pitch for plastic replacements has not been sleuthed out by anyone in Gumshoeland. Here’s the link (unfortunately, no option to just read the transcript).

I think this is a long- term winner. The greater use of cheaper Ammonia is a no brainer, and their starting with farmers makes a lot of sense.
