Chemical recycling, also known as advanced recycling, encompasses a group of technologies that break down the molecules in waste to produce raw materials. This process enables the conversion of difficult-to-recycle plastics, such as multi-layered or contaminated materials, back into "virgin-like" feedstocks that can be used to create new chemicals ...

Today, the vast majority of plastic is still made from fossil fuel and is designed to be durable. However, the twin challenges of reducing fossil fuel consumption and decreasing plastic waste brought in some significant changes to the plastic industry in 2022. Options to counter these challenges include the use of plastic that is biobased or biodeg...

Most parts of Europe face recurring droughts as below-average rainfall combined with heatwaves exacerbate water stress. The latest revision of European Union wastewater directives has driven nations to invest in tertiary treatment of wastewater and proactively encouraged water reuse to meet agricultural and industrial water demand. This includes me...
