Speculative analysis of the current state of the atom economy suggests a suboptional, NOT 100%. For example, the product production index(PPI)1 projects a sharp, decline in atom economy, suggesting a correlation between the use of a modern, green, fermentation through yeast catalysts type of industrial system, as opposed to the traditional hydration of ethene system that has been hallmarked by atom economists from across the world as a definitive era of atom economics, boasting a 100% atom economy.
As a result, the atom economy is now entering into a recession, with consistent reaction cycles having an atom economy of below 70%. Currently, the drastic societal switch to the fermentation-of-sugars atom economy system has left analysts in disarray with a shocking 51% atom economy, much below the 100% atom economy that current industrial complexes are used to.
With this stark reduction of the PPI, atom economists are encouraging industry leaders to pursue alternate measures to prevent wasted energy inflation and dampen the effects of the upcoming recession.
Some atom economists are currently using stoichiometric modelling to predict the effects on switching to a "mixed" system for the production of ethanol, and how this may be implemented on an industry-wide scale. While preliminary data appears to have worried some, leaders of the atom economic world such as BASF SE and CF Industries Holdings Inc. have started implementing this in a desperate bid to maintain a high average PPI, and subsequently a good economic yield.
Others are suggesting a more hard-line approach from the industry regulators, demanding the use of a fiscal atom deficit in the budget to soften the blow to the atom economy via rate subsidies.
The RBCP2 is also under fire, as the collapse in the PPI has resulted in some atom economists insisting on a minimum PPI threshold to be determined, around the arbitrary 70%, and to use regulatory action to limit expansion of fermentation-of-sugars operations and instead revitalise and grow the hydration of ethene production, to stabilise the atom economy.
All in all, the economy is in a dire place as it appears it may soon descend into free-fall, where desired products will be so inefficiently produced that product inflation is forced to rise. If this is the case, the RBCP may witness yet another collapse in the industry-wide atom economy, perhaps one not seen before since the Great Crash(, bang and boom) of 19293. Hopefully we don't see any atom economists jumping out of windows any time soon.4
