Summary

Researchers review how microwave-assisted heterogeneous catalysis can rapidly and energy-efficiently convert waste plastics into fuels, monomers, and commodity chemicals, offering a promising chemical upcycling pathway to recover value from plastic waste.

Microwave-assisted heterogeneous catalysis enables rapid, energy efficient conversion of waste plastics to value-added fuels, monomers and commodity chemicals.
