Researchers have developed a solar-powered reactor that transforms hard-to-recycle plastic waste into clean hydrogen fuel and valuable industrial chemicals.
The system, developed by a team at the University of Cambridge, uses acid recovered from discarded car batteries, offering a novel way to tackle multiple waste streams at once.
Powered entirely by sunlight, the approach could provide a cheaper and more sustainable alternative to conventional recycling methods.
According to researchers, the breakthrough highlights a potential circular solution where one form of waste helps process another.
