Advancements in biotechnology highlight how engineered microbial catalysts can recycle plastic waste in vivo.

A newly developed, open-access tool helps plastic recyclers pinpoint appropriate market applications.

Automotive recycling combines EOL bumpers with carbon fiber scraps. This rCF-rPP composite increases stiffness and diverts plastic from landfills.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) may help bridge the gap between scientific research and policy in the plastics industry.

Researchers are fine-tuning computer vision systems to help identify and sort plastic waste on construction sites.

Researchers developed a novel, bio-based composite, enhanced with essential oil and chitosan, designed specifically for cosmetics packaging.

Regulating for resilience, safety, and sustainability is crucial in the packaging industry.

Circularity delays emissions, but geo-operations target mitigation by redirecting carbon from plastics into long-term geosphere storage via co-pyrolysis.

The European Chemicals Agency (ECHA) met to re-evaluate its 2023 proposal regarding per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS).

Drawing on sedimentology, researchers have proposed a novel classification scheme for plastic waste of all sizes.
