The large production volumes of commodity polyolefins (specifically, polyethylene,
polypropylene, polystyrene, and poly (vinyl chloride)), in conjunction with their low unit …

The increasing accumulation of plastic waste, particularly polyvinyl chloride (PVC) plastics
containing halogens, has led to severe environmental issues. To achieve environmentally …

Valorization of waste polymers constitutes an attractive solution for alleviating relevant
environmental pollution. Among various strategies for polymer upcycling, photocatalysis has …

Upgrading the most difficult-to-recycle waste polyvinyl chloride remains a significant
challenge due to the potential formation of highly toxic substances, such as polychlorinated …

Abstract Amid the ongoing Global Plastics Treaty, high-quality circulation of halogen-
containing plastics in an environmentally sound manner is a globally pressing issue. Current …

A series of Fe–Ba mixed oxides, including a pure Fe-containing sample as a reference, have
been synthesized via a sol–gel process using Fe3+ or Fe2+ salts and BaSO4 as raw …

The recycling of polyolefin plastics is often hindered by high energy consumption and low
economic efficiency. In particular, the recycling of poly (vinyl chloride)(PVC) is especially …

Polyolefin plastics account for~ 60% of global plastic waste, and thus depolymerizing large
quantities of waste polyolefin plastics into olefin monomers is attractive for both recycling …
