Catalysts for Carbon Circularity: Innovative chemistry for upgrading plastic waste (C3) Ghent University
The grand challenge of closing the carbon cycle for large-‐scale produced plastics such as polyolefins is addressed. Rather than being considered waste, these will serve as raw materials to produce novel polymers with superior physical properties and recyclability, and to produce value-‐added, well-‐defined low molecular building blocks. Homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysts will be deployed in a concerted fashion to design energy ...
