Biotechnological plastic recycling has emerged as a suitable option for addressing the
pollution crisis. A major breakthrough in the biodegradation of poly (ethylene …

Plastic pollution has become a major global concern, posing numerous challenges for the
environment and wildlife. Most conventional ways of plastics degradation are inefficient and …

Glycolysis is one of the most explored approaches to the chemical recycling of poly
(ethylene terephthalate)(PET). Apart from complete depolymerisation, which is the traditional …

Plastic waste is an environmental challenge, but also presents a biotechnological
opportunity as a unique carbon substrate. With modern biotechnological tools, it is possible …

Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) is a semi‐crystalline polymer that finds broad use.
Consequently, it contributes to the accumulation of plastics in the environment, warranting …

Poly (ethylene terephthalate)(PET) waste accumulation poses significant environmental
challenges due to its persistent nature and current management limitations. This study …

Firms' circular sourcing strategies are essential for the transition to a circular economy as
they enhance circularity both within individual firms and across industries. A key barrier to …

Abstract The high crystallinity (30%–50%) of discarded polyester textile waste limits the
industrialization of its clean enzymatic depolymerization. In this study, a simple process …

Traditional plastics, predominantly derived from petrochemicals, are extensively utilized in
modern industry and daily life. However, inadequate management and disposal practices …
