Abstract:Traditionally, waste plastics have been recycled using crude recycling processes, which pose serious environmental pollution and low recycling efficiency. The best option for managing waste plastics is to upgrade them into high‐value‐added chemicals by breaking down specific chemical bonds in plastic polymers. Herein, this article reviews recent representative research advancements in photo‐ and electrodegradation of plastics for obtaining small‐molecule, high‐value‐added chemicals. The focus is on the applica… Show more
