Scientists found a catalyst that turns waste plastic waste into cleaner fuel much faster than before, making the process more ...

Now, a University of Delaware-led research team has developed a new type of catalyst that enhances conversion of plastic ...

"The approach, which the team describes as requiring less energy, less equipment, and fewer steps than conventional ...

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 ...

The sustainable production of fuels and value-added chemicals from biomass is a cornerstone of the future bioeconomy. 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF), a platform molecule derived from lignocellulosic ...

A combination of chemical catalysts and engineered bacteria has been used to convert a mix of common plastic rubbish into a useful product. The technique could be adapted for other plastics or to make ...
