Dr. Byungwook Hwang's research team from the CCS Research Department at the Korea Institute of Energy Research (KIER) has successfully developed a process that applies the circulating fluidized bed ...

Freepoint Eco-Systems seeks to become a major player in so-called “chemical recycling.” Some residents and environmental ...

A radical new process “vaporizes” plastic bags and bottles to help make recycled materials. American scientists say the innovative chemical procedure turns ubiquitous waste items into hydrocarbon ...

It was an "almost accidental" discovery, the photocatalyst they invented turned out to be robust enough to withstand the ...

Chemists have developed a catalytic process that turns the largest component of today's plastic waste stream, polyolefin plastic bags and bottles, into gases -- propylene and isobutylene -- that are ...

Researchers have developed a solar-powered reactor that transforms hard-to-recycle plastic waste into clean hydrogen ...

Sorting plastic is hard; scientists found compatibilizers may enable direct recycling of mixed plastics into 3D-printed ...

Dr. Byungwook Hwang’s research team from the CCS Research Department at the Korea Institute of Energy Research (KIER) has successfully developed a process that applies the circulating fluidized bed ...

For two decades, the federal government has classified the heated chambers used to break down plastic waste as incinerators, ...

A shockingly low percentage of the hundreds of millions of tons of plastic produced every year actually gets recycled.

Note: Eastman Chemical Company’s first “molecular recycling” facility is now fully operational in Kingsport. It uses a process called methanolysis to reduce hard-to-recycle waste plastic to its ...

New TNO research tackles the core challenge: recycling complex, mixed textile waste that current technologies cannot process.
