Catalytic Transformation of PET and CO2 into High-Value Chemicals

Yinwen Li et al.

Summary: Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and CO2, two chemical wastes that urgently need to be transformed in the environment, are simultaneously converted in a one-pot catalytic process through the synergistic coupling of three reactions. The chemical equilibria of both reactions are shifted forward, leading to significantly enhanced PET depolymerization. This synergistic catalytic process provides an effective way to simultaneously recycle two wastes and produce high-value chemicals.
