Plastic waste will be transformed into energy. Breakthrough thanks to the sun

A new study led by PhD student Xiao Lu from the University of Adelaide explores how solar-powered systems can convert plastic waste into hydrogen and other industrial chemicals.

The research shows that plastics, rich in carbon and hydrogen, can be valuable resources rather than just waste. If we can efficiently convert plastic waste into clean fuels using sunlight, we might tackle both pollution and energy issues at the same time.
