Human society has become increasingly reliant on plastic because it allows for convenient
and sanitary living. However, recycling rates are currently low, which means that the majority …

Abstract Development of two-dimensional (2D) porous carbon nanosheets (PCNs) with an
interlinked hierarchical porous structure has attracted great attention due to their synergetic …

The controlled carbonization of polymers is one of the most important polymer reactions. It
represents the conversion process of polymeric precursors into carbonaceous materials in a …

The substantial volume of polymer waste generated globally predominantly consists of
synthetic polymers and biopolymers. Recycling and reusing these waste polymers not only …

Plastics are playing essential roles in the modern society. The majority of them enter
environment through landfilling or discarding after turning into wastes, causing severe …

This work reports on the preparation and examination of biomass-derived activated carbons
featuring high CO 2 adsorption capacity. A detailed micropore structure analysis and surface …

Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) is one of the most important plastics derived from petroleum, which
have been extensively used almost in everyday life since last few decades due to its …

A diversity of renewable wastes such as biomass and plastic can be employed for the
synthesis of porous carbons, which have emerged as promising materials for CO 2 capture …

Plastics not only bring convenience and color to human life, but also bring endless troubles
and disaster to our environment. Reutilization of plastic wastes is in favor of energy …

Excessive exploitation, negligence, non-degradable nature, and physical and chemical
properties of plastic waste have resulted in a massive pollution load into the environment …
