“…Recently, MoS 2 and MXene were used as the cocatalyst to modify Cd x Zn 1-x S for improved PET photoreforming into H 2 . [176,177] The compact interfaces between the cocatalyst and Cd x Zn 1-x S were observed by high-resolution TEM (HRTEM) studies (Figure 9b,c), which were responsible for efficient electron transfer during the photocatalytic processes. The photocatalytic mechanisms are illustrated in Figure 9d,e.…”

Plastic waste remains a global challenge due to the massive amounts being produced without satisfactory treatment technologies for recycling and upcycling. Photocatalytic processes are emerging as green and promising approaches to upcycle plastics into value‐added products under mild conditions using sunlight as the energy source. In this review, the recent advances in plastic conversion through photocatalysis have been comprehensively summarized. Special emphasis is placed on the photocatalytic mechanism and the selective CC and CH bond transformations of plastics to access fuels, chemicals, and materials. Finally, the challenges and the perspectives on establishing a new paradigm toward a sustainable and circular plastic economy are also put forward.

“…Some of the types found in ASEAN include fiber [38], polietilen [39]; [40], polypropylene [1]; [41], etc. The number of studies related to the types of microplastics has not been widely conducted, but several sampling techniques have been done in several studies such as [42]. The difference in sampling technique could be due to several things, such as methodological and technological constraints in dividing sources and fluxes, characterizing macroplastics/MPs, and identifying socioenvironmental factors that influence [43] and the cost required is relatively expensive compared to just observing using a microscope.…”

Microplastic research is currently an exciting trend along with global environmental problems. The purpose of this study is to review the development of microplastic research in ASEAN. The researc uses a systematic review method by searching for the keyword “microplastic” and the name of the ASEAN country on the Google Scholar website, Science Direct, and other research paper provider websites. Papers reviewed in 2018 to August 2021 period were then classified based on the components analyzed. The results showed that based on the research location category, the majority of microplastic research was carried out in Vietnam (12/50 articles). The category of research object focused on marine organisms more than terrestrial organisms, the category of microplastic concentration varied because the microplastic sampling method was not standardized, the category of microplastic form dominated by the form of fiber; commonly found in coastal areas. The socio-economic category is not much related to the circular economy. To conclude, microplastic research still has opportunities, especially from a socio-economic perspective.

In the quest of renewable energy technologies, solar photoreforming emerges as one of the affordable yet challenging process for converting biomass into hydrogen, hydrocarbon fuels, and chemicals. This review highlights the state‐of‐the‐art photoreforming, elucidating its underlying mechanisms for the conversion of dissipated polymers into H2 and valuable chemicals. Biomass feedstocks such as carbohydrates, agricultural residues, glycopolymers, food wastes, and waste plastics are evaluated based on their chemical composition, energy content, and sustainability aspects, exploring the selection of appropriate bio‐renewable resources, considering their abundance, availability, and potential for hydrogen production. The impact of diverse process parameters on photoreforming efficiency is explored, encompassing factors like reaction temperature, pH, catalyst loading, reactor design, solvent effect, and light intensity across various sacrificial substrates. The discussion also considers their correlation with hydrogen production rate, selectivity, and energy efficiency. This review buckles on the design and synthesis of functional photocatalysts for biomass‐derived feedstock, highlighting their photocatalytic (PC) properties in biomass reforming processes and related feedstock into valuable chemicals and biofuel. The review also delves into potential pathways for future advancements including artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML), alongside addressing the challenges and insightful perspectives within this evolving field of future green energy.
