The excessive utilization and emission of waste plastics have caused serious damage to the environment, it is great significance explore high-value methods for these plastics. To address this challenge, functional nano cobalt-loaded porous carbon materials (CoPC) with excellent antibiotic wastewater removal properties were prepared by one-step pyrolysis using PET as a source, process described in paper. Characterization revealed that obtained CoPC-2 catalysts had high degree defects, large specific surface area (343.41 m2/g), an abundant pore structure. Degradation results displayed removed 87.93% 20 mg/L tetracycline reaction rate constant 0.0668 min-1. Moreover, exhibited degradation performance over wide range pH levels (4-10) coexistence multiple inorganic anions. Electron paramagnetic resonance radical quenching experiments radicals (·OH, SO4·-) non-radicals (1O2) pathway participated degradation, non-radical being dominant. This study not only offers promising prospects resource plastics, but also provides novel approaches design nanomaterials treatment.

Addressing Plastic Waste Challenges in Africa: The Potential of Pyrolysis for Waste-to-Energy Conversion

Clean Technologies, Год журнала: 2025, Номер 7(1), С. 20 - 20

Опубликована: Март 5, 2025

Plastic waste poses a significant challenge in Africa and around the world, with its volume continuing to increase at an alarming rate. In Africa, estimated 25–33% of daily is made up plastic, posing threat environment, marine life, human health. One potential solution this problem waste-to-energy recycling, such as pyrolysis, which involves conversion materials into oil, char, non-condensable gasses through thermochemical process absence oxygen. Given abundance continent’s energy challenges, pyrolysis offers sustainable solution. This review delves concept products, thermodynamics, endothermic kinetics, presenting it promising way address plastic Africa. Despite African Union’s goal recycle waste, continent faces barriers achieving target, including infrastructural, economic, social difficulties. It crucial implement strategies for managing mitigate environmental degradation promote cleaner healthier living environment. Pyrolysis technology highlighted viable management, can convert valuable byproducts syngas. Case studies from countries like South Nigeria demonstrate scaling management issues while generating job opportunities. underscores need investment, regulatory support, public awareness overcome challenges unlock full Embracing method could lead economic benefits continent.
