Chemical process converts plastic into jet fuel ingredients in an hour

“Using a catalyst made from carbon and the silvery-white metal ruthenium, along with some commonly used solvents, the scientists were able to convert around 90 percent of the plastic into the components for jet fuel, and other hydrocarbons, within one hour. This took place at around 220 °C (428 °F), much friendlier – and more economically viable than older tek.”

Here is an idea for you Qteam DIYers to contemplate. I’ve seen people on YouTube make Dirty diesel and gasoline without a catalyst by just putting plastic in a steel container and heating it. Usually, distillates leave the tank via a steel pipe (see video below). So, my idea is the weld in a catalytic converter to make the conversion more efficient. What do you guys think? Also, adding cat litter, limestone pebbles, or sea shells to the plastic should improve efficiency.
