This seems like more organic chemistry research, not a giant breakthrough. Still, we need sustainable fuels in aviation for the foreseeable future. Given the physics of flight on this planet, batteries just won’t cut it.
Unfortunately even with a 100% renewable fuel, you still have additional greenhouse effect from the condensation trails. I doubt there’s a reasonable way to capture jet exhaust, and even if it did it would increase the weight of the aircraft.
So basically, the future is steampunk dirigibles, and don’t let anyone tell ya different.
