Scientists in the United States and China say they have developed a one-step method to convert mixed plastic waste into petrol at room temperature and ambient pressure, achieving more than 95 percent efficiency.
The approach, which the team describes as requiring less energy, less equipment, and fewer steps than conventional plastic-to-fuel pathways, is designed to be scalable for industrial use.
Finally, some real innovation using our trash! š But tbh, gotta see it scale up before Iām fully on board. How do they handle the toxins released tho?
