Even though plastic improved the human standard of living, handling the plastic waste
represents an enormous challenge. It takes more than 100 years to decompose discarded or …

Supercapacitors are currently extensively studied as possible auxiliary energy storage
devices to be used with rechargeable batteries. They combine the advantages of both …

Polyethylene terephthalate (PET polymer) is the main ingredient in clear bottles containing
water and other liquids such as hand sanitizers. Due to the increasing use of these …

The explosive growth of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) wastes has brought serious
pollution to the environment. Here, PET waste was upcycled into methane-rich pyrolysis gas …

Carbon membrane materials are becoming more important in the new era of membrane
technology for gas separation due to their higher selectivity, permeability and stability in …

In circular economy, useful plastic materials are kept in circulation as opposed to being
landfilled, incinerated, or leaked into the natural environment. Pyrolysis is a chemical …

With the ever-increasing consumption of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) related products,
how to recycle the waste PET still remains as a great challenge for the sustainable …

A waste-treats-waste approach has been used for the removal of two common pollutants,
namely p-nitrophenol and/or Fe (III) from aqueous solution. Polyethyleneterephthalate (PET) …

To address the increasing accumulation of water bottle waste and lack of effective recycling
processes, water bottle waste was upcycled into a high value activated carbon product. This …
