Can I just do that and stop paying for gas for my car and boiler and generators for like electricity and stuff ?

To add to what people before me have said – plastics aren’t just one thing. There are different types of plastics we use daily and some release very nasty byproducts when burning, most notably PVC, which contains large amounts of chlorine.
If something sounds too good to be true, it’s probably too good to be true. If there was a cheap and efficient way to turn waste plastic into gasoline just by burning it, somebody would have figured it out by now. I don’t doubt it’s possible, but it’s certainly not as easy and revolutionary as clickbaity videos will have you believe.
