Would not be viable unless scaled up a whole lot.
It is energy negative - the energy used would be less than that of the oil produced although it could be driven by, say, solar panels.
Problem of dealing with residues and emissions.
A 1001 issues relating to elf n safety, insurance, operator training and so on.
Quality problems of fuel produced for re-use.
Problem of collection and distribution of fuel produced.

Nothing that a few tens of millions of dollars couldn't sort out.

I wonder where we can get one of those machines?

Not sure if I'd want to put the "fuel" in the car........ might experiment with an old lawn mower first. lol

I thought that was a very informative video LadyScozz - thanks for posting it.

Researching:
I am researching the Wotherspoon family from the Old/New Monkland areas of Scotland, some moved to the Leslie and Kelty areas of Fife and I'm having problems linking the Wotherspoon's from Leslie and the Wotherspoon's from Kelty. I am also researching the Clusker family from Co. Meath in Ireland who moved to West Lothian and from there to Fife............"Vita non est vivere sed valere vita est"

What do you do with your plastic "garbage"?

The sound is all in Japanese. Just read the subtitles and watch.
