A new solar-driven method transforms plastic waste and microplastics into acetic acid, turning pollution into a valuable chemical.

Researchers have used a low-emissions method to harvest hydrogen and graphene from waste plastics. They say it not only solves environmental problems like plastic pollution and greenhouse gas ...

Scientists at the University of Edinburgh have discovered a way to use a harmless bacterium to turn plastic waste into paracetamol, such as Tylenol, as reported by The University of Edinburgh. While ...

Researchers have found a way to harvest hydrogen from plastic waste using a low-emissions method that generates graphene as a by-product, which could help offset production costs. Hydrogen is viewed ...

Move over crude oil, scientists have found a way to turn plastic waste into paracetamol, also known as acetaminophen, using a common bacterium. The breakthrough, developed by researchers at the ...

The new method converts waste plastic into pyrolysis oil, which contains valuable olefins used in various industries. This process offers an opportunity to derive high-value alcohols worth up to ...

Pacific Northwest National Laboratory has found a new method to convert waste plastic into raw materials and fuel. The new process is conducted at low temperatures and with high yield, reducing the ...

Each year, billions of single-use plastic bottles end up in landfills or oceans. That waste problem keeps growing. Now, a new scientific breakthrough suggests those same bottles could help power your ...

Over five informative and innovative weekly webinars, the Thermo Fisher Scientific webinar series “Sustainable Products from Plastic Waste” introduced advancements in science to create efficient ...

Researchers in the UK have devised a very clever method using genetically modified E. coli to convert PET plastic waste into Tylenol (as if we need any more of it). Can this science solve two ...

Single-use plastic might just be the most insane act of collective self-harm humanity commits every single day. Each year, the United Nations Environment Programme estimates that we discard a ...
