Scientists Convert Plastic Waste into High-Performance CO2 Capture Materials
Scientists at the University of Copenhagen have unveiled a groundbreaking method that transforms plastic waste into an innovative and highly efficient material for capturing carbon dioxide (CO₂). This pioneering approach not only addresses the escalating issue of plastic pollution but simultaneously offers a promising solution to the global climate crisis by enabling sustainable and effective CO₂ sequestration. By converting discarded polyethylene terephthalate (PET) plastic—one of the most ubiquitous plastics worldwide—into a novel sorbent called BAETA, researchers have bridged two seemingly disparate environmental challenges with a single transformative technology.
