Summary

This is a preprint data entry for the same UV photocatalysis microplastic-to-hydrogen research as ID 1873, providing the underlying experimental report on TiO2-assisted breakdown of polystyrene and polyethylene microplastics under UVC light. Duplicate/companion entry; the research explores whether plastic pollution can be converted into hydrogen fuel as a remediation-plus-energy strategy.
