In the EU, 31% of plastic products go to landfill: but a process called "cold plasma pyrolysis" could turn them into clean fuels. In the EU, 31% of plastic products go to landfill: but a process ...
The CO 2 emissions from plastic waste-to-energy systems are higher than those from current fossil fuel-based power systems per unit of power generated, even after considering the contribution of carbon capture and storage. Power generation using plastic waste will significantly increase by 2050.
Materials may be depolymerized in this way during waste management, with the volatile components produced being burnt as a form of synthetic fuel in a waste-to-energy process. For other polymers, thermal depolymerization is an ordered process giving a single product, or limited range of products; these transformations are usually more valuable ...

Miranda Wang (born in 1994), is the co-founder of Novoloop (formerly BioCellection, Inc.), which is a company that aims to turn plastic waste into high-performance materials that can be used in a variety of products.
Plastic recycling is the processing of plastic waste into other products. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ] Recycling can reduce dependence on landfills , conserve resources and protect the environment from plastic pollution and greenhouse gas emissions.
Brazil is one of the world’s most progressive countries when it comes to integrating waste pickers into its solid waste management systems. The Minas Gerais Catadores are part of a network of ...
No water management for humidification of the membrane is needed compared to LT-PEM fuel cell. [9]Waste heat of the stack (130 to 180 °C) can be used making combined heat and power (CHP) possible for further usage of the heat in contrast to LT-PEM fuel cell which has too low waste heat temperature below 80 °C.
