Опубликована: Янв. 9, 2025

The growing use of plastics is significantly impacting the environment, resulting in contamination our surroundings and food chain with plastic particles, as well increasing carbon emissions. In this context, development biodegradable materials important to promote a more sustainable world reduced environmental footprint. This study aims develop coproduction process for monomers, 1,4-butanediol (1,4-BDO) adipic acid, from renewable feedstock, lignocellulose biomass. economic greenhouse gas emissions footprint aspects are maximized by utilizing three major components biomass (cellulose, hemicellulose, lignin) via efficient fractionation catalytic conversion. addition, energy requirements optimizing heat integration through pinch analysis. Techno-economic analysis life cycle assessment conducted evaluate benefits. minimum selling price bio-based 1,4-BDO calculated be $2,126/metric ton, which lower than market fossil-based $2,500/metric ton. sensitivity identify impact key factors on product prices. Life indicates that production environmentally conventional production.

Ecofriendly Upcycling of Poly(vinyl chloride) Waste Plastics into Precious Metal Adsorbents

Advanced Science, Год журнала: 2025, Номер unknown

Опубликована: Май 9, 2025

Abstract Global interest in the recycling of precious metals (PMs) various industrial sectors has spurred exploration high‐performance PM adsorbents. Unfortunately, many adsorbents exhibit unsatisfactory adsorption performance and require complex fabrication protocols toxic chemicals. Hence, further development simple, efficient, eco‐friendly is necessary. Herein, poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) waste plastics are simply transformed into via benign solvent treatment hydrazination. The resultant hydrazine‐functionalized PVC (h‐PVC) plastic can effectively recover gold, palladium, platinum from real‐world leachates owing to its combined reduction chemisorption mechanisms. PM‐adsorbed h‐PVC be regenerated, calcined high‐purity PMs, or directly employed as a catalyst, demonstrating practical feasibility. Techno‐economic life‐cycle assessments reveal that plastic‐utilizing industrial‐scale recovery gold electronic cost‐competitive environmentally advantageous. strategy supports environmental sustainable technologies by enabling maintenance carbon resources provides an efficient method for fabricating advanced adsorbent materials.
