Biological Degradation of Phthalates: From Bioremediation to Plastic Waste Valorization

open access: yesChemSusChem, Volume 19, Issue 7, 14 April 2026.
Phthalic acid isomers play a key role in the plastics industry, but pose significant environmental and health concerns. This review explores the microbial biodegradation of phthalates and their esters, focusing on bacterial enzymes, catabolic pathways, and cellular uptake mechanisms of phthalates.

Accelerated Mechanochemical Depolymerization of Poly(styrene) Due To Formation of a Cohesive State

open access: yesChemSusChem, Volume 19, Issue 7, 14 April 2026.
A highly reactive, continuous state of poly(styrene) (PS) was discovered to aid its mechanochemical depolymerization, which is (a) more reactive than PS powder, (b) insensitive to effects of oxygen, (c) driven by shear rather than compressive stresses, and (d) sensitive to PS loading.

Integrated and closed‐loop biorefinery strategies for efficient waste valorization and biofuel production

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, Volume 104, Issue 4, Page 1656-1676, April 2026.
Abstract Advancements in biofuel production technologies are essential for reducing global dependence on fossil fuels and addressing their overexploitation. Many valuable components of biomass, such as cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin, remain underused in traditional biorefineries, which typically rely on a single feedstock to produce a primary ...
