The substantial production of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) products, coupled with high
abandonment rates, results in significant environmental pollution and resource wastage …

Polymeric materials have become an integral part of our society, and their high demand has
created a large quantity of polymers that end up in the waste stream. For instance, poly …

This work addresses a novel bio-solvolysis process for the treatment of complex poly
(ethylene terephthalate)(PET) waste using a biobased monoethylene glycol (BioMEG) as a …

The current surge in plastic waste generation from human activities has led to environmental
hazards associated with Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 6 (Clean Water and …

Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) waste is mounting up in the environment due to its poor
biodegradability and low recycling rate. Glycolysis is a promising chemical recycling …

Applications of polar aprotic solvents are inevitable in the chemical industry, but few
nonhazardous alternatives are available. Herein, we propose methyl sesamol (MeSesamol) …

The glycolysis of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) is considered as the most promising PET
recycling strategy due to its mild reaction conditions and circularity. Herein, several metal …

The massive accumulation of postconsumer polyethylene terephthalate (PET) waste in the
environment demands enhancement in the recycling rate to tackle global pollution. At the …

As the demand of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) increases worldwide along with the
waste generated from its use, it is urgent to develop cost-efficient and sustainable recycling …

Poly (ethylene terephthalate)(PET) is the most widely produced thermoplastic and is used in
drink bottles, packaging, and textiles. Chemical depolymerization represents a way to …
