Summary

Researchers coupled electrochemical PET plastic degradation with hydrogen production using a nickel-cerium telluride electrocatalyst, demonstrating that PET microplastics can be simultaneously upcycled into value-added chemicals while generating clean hydrogen fuel.

Polymers

Microplastic reformation in conjunction with the electrochemical hydrogen evolution has merits for producing value-added chemicals and mitigating environmental pollution.
