“…In this context, chemical upcycling of PET waste into depolymerized aromatic monomers or higher-value chemicals is a more attractive recycling strategy. Various methods have been explored for the valorization of PET waste, , including hydrogenolysis, − solvolysis, , pyrolysis, photocatalytic , and electrochemical upcycling, and hybrid processes. − However, most of these methods require additional inputs of valuable chemicals and energy resources, such as H 2 , alcohols, intensive heat, and electricity.…”
