Abstract

Isla Monroe

Plastic waste pollution presents a significant environmental challenge worldwide, demanding innovative solutions for mitigation and recycling. One promising avenue involves the conversion of plastic waste into supports for nanostructured heterogeneous catalysts, offering dual benefits of waste management and environmental cleanup. This article explores the various methodologies, catalysts, and applications involved in this emerging field. By repurposing plastic waste into catalyst supports, researchers aim to address environmental concerns while fostering sustainable practices. Through a comprehensive examination of the current literature, this article elucidates the mechanisms, challenges, and potential of plastic waste conversion into supports for nanostructured heterogeneous catalysts in environmental cleanup efforts.
