"Flash" graphene made from plastic waste

Sounds like a win-win: 
"at industrial scale, the process could produce graphene for about $125 in electricity costs per ton of plastic waste..."
"Rather than recycling plastic into pellets that sell for $2,000 a ton, you could be upcycling to graphene, which has a much higher value..."
"We produce considerable amount of hydrogen, which is a clean fuel, in our flashing [production]  process..."
"The nice thing about graphene is its biological degradation under many conditions is very slow, so in most cases it doesn't reenter the carbon cycle for hundreds of years..."
