Cellulose Acetates in Hydrothermal Carbonization: A Green Pathway to Valorize Residual Bioplastics

ChemSusChem, Volume 18, Issue 2, January 14, 2025.
Pure and commercial cellulose acetates are subjected to hydrothermal carbonization as a possible end‐of‐life strategy. The plasticizers cause the material to completely dissolve in the liquid phase at 190 °C. Valuable carbonaceous solids and platform chemicals were observed in the products, proving the possibility of applying this approach in a ...
