Summary

A hybrid thermo-electrochemical process was explored for converting marine plastic and biomass mixtures into useful energy products, addressing the challenge of plastics commingled with organic matter in ocean environments. The approach offers a potential pathway for valorizing hard-to-recycle marine waste streams.

Surface plastics and microplastics commingled with biomass are emerging pollutants in the marine environment.
