The proposed fuel is not SAF, it’s a combination of magnesium and hydrogen mixed with hydrocarbon fuel. It’s estimated to give 8% more range over other existing aviation fuels.

What a bullshit article. The researchers added magnesium hydride to regular petrol jet fuel and got a modest efficiency boost. That’s it.
The author sneaks in a hypothetical statement toward the end that, if a biofuel was used in place of petrol jet fuel, then maybe net-zero emissions could be achieved. Great way to justify a tantalizing headline for clicks.
This is how you build explosives…
Well yeah, it’s a combustion fuel.
