Converting Petrochemical Plastic to Biodegradable Plastic

2020
Current plastic waste management strategies focus on the prevention and reduction of waste, followed by reuse, recycling, energy recovery, and disposal as the least preferred option. An option that should be included in these strategies is the use of biodegradable counterparts.

New perspectives in plastic biodegradation

Current Opinion in Biotechnology, 2011
During the past 50 years new plastic materials, in various applications, have gradually replaced the traditional metal, wood, leather materials. Ironically, the most preferred property of plastics--durability--exerts also the major environmental threat.

Biodegradable plastic

2021
Работа посвящена проблеме утилизации пластика. Пластиковые отходы стали серьезной проблемой загрязнения из-за чрезмерного использования и отсутствия надлежащего управления отходами. Без сокращения от источника и без тщательного рассмотрения вопросов утилизации отходов решить проблему будет сложно..
