♻️ What if yesterday’s plastic could become tomorrow’s building blocks? This research explores the potential of 𝒂𝒄𝒊𝒅𝒊𝒄 𝒉𝒚𝒅𝒓𝒐𝒍𝒚𝒔𝒊𝒔, a chemical recycling approach that breaks plastics back down into their original monomers, paving the way for a more circular future. By optimizing sulfuric acid-based hydrolysis with the addition of citric acid at varying concentrations, we investigate how this process can be made more efficient, sustainable, and impactful. Join us as we uncover new possibilities in the journey toward smarter plastic recycling!
