Efficient solvent- and hydrogen-free upcycling of high-density polyethylene into separable cyclic hydrocarbons

Junjie Du et al.

Summary: Ru nanoparticles on HZSM-5 catalyze solvent- and hydrogen-free upcycling of high-density polyethylene into separable linear (C-1 to C-6) and cyclic (C-7 to C-15) hydrocarbons. Plastic pollution, worsened by the COVID-19 pandemic, requires a sustainable and economically viable recycling method that avoids consumable materials. This study demonstrates the catalytic conversion of high-density polyethylene using Ru nanoparticles on HZSM-5, resulting in a separable distribution of linear and cyclic hydrocarbons.

Reactivity of Iridium Complexes of a Triphosphorus-Pincer Ligand Based on a Secondary Phosphine. Catalytic Alkane Dehydrogenation and the Origin of Extremely High Activity

Benjamin M. Gordon et al.

Summary: A new bulky triphosphine ligand, ((PPP)-P-tBu)Ir, has been reported to efficiently catalyze the dehydrogenation of alkanes. Compared to traditional ligands, this ligand results in a more crowded spatial arrangement around the metal center, leading to enhanced catalytic activity.

Combined Experimental and Computational Study of the Mechanism of Acceptorless Alcohol Dehydrogenation by POCOP Iridium Pincer Complexes

Alexey V. Polukeev et al.

Summary: This study found that dilution has a significant impact on the performance of catalysts and the acceleration mechanism of alcohol dehydrogenation is related to the rate-limiting mass transfer of hydrogen. Experimental and computational methods showed that dehydrogenation has two high-barrier steps and the re-hydrogenation of dehydrogenation products is responsible for the rate retardation in concentrated solutions of the catalyst.

Assessing the feasibility of chemical recycling via steam cracking of untreated plastic waste pyrolysis oils: Feedstock impurities, product yields and coke formation

Marvin Kusenberg et al.

Summary: Chemical recycling of plastic waste to base chemicals via pyrolysis and subsequent steam cracking shows potential to overcome limitations in current plastic waste recycling methods. In this study, steam cracking of two types of plastic waste pyrolysis oils was evaluated, and it was found that they have high ethylene yields but also produce significant amounts of heavy products. Contaminants were identified as a key driver for coke formation.

Effect of advanced oxidation process for chemical structure changes of polyethylene microplastics

Devita Amelia et al.

Summary: Microplastic pollution in aquatic systems is a global concern. AOPs, such as ozonation and hydrogen peroxide, can generate reactive oxygen species and modify the chemical structure of microplastics, thus accelerating their degradation. This study focused on modifying the chemical structure of polyethylene microplastics using AOPs and analyzed the effects using FTIR analysis.

Aging simulation of thin-film plastics in different environments to examine the formation of microplastic

Qindong Chen et al.

Summary: The study found that understanding the aging mechanism of plastics in different environments is crucial for controlling microplastic formation. Various techniques can be used to analyze the physical and chemical structures of polyethylene and polypropylene in different environments. In water systems, thin-film plastics disintegrated into microplastics more easily, and ultraviolet radiation and water flow significantly impacted the production of micro-scale particles.

Origin of Regioselectivity in the Dehydrogenation of Alkanes by Pincer-Iridium Complexes: A Combined Experimental and Computational Study

Soumik Biswas et al.

Summary: The PCP-pincer iridium complexes exhibit high regioselectivity for the transfer dehydrogenation of n-alkanes, while the closely related PCOP and POCOP complexes do not. The difference in regioselectivity is a true kinetic phenomenon, not a result of isomerization subsequent to the formation of free alpha-olefin. The different regioselectivity of the POCOPIr vs PCPIr catalysts is attributable to the different rate-determining steps of their respective catalytic cycles, which can be explained in terms of different electronic effects of O versus CH2 linker exerted through the pincer aromatic ring.

C-H bond activation in light alkanes: a theoretical perspective

Yalan Wang et al.

Summary: Alkanes as feedstocks play a crucial role in the chemical industry, and the activation of C-H bonds in light alkanes has attracted widespread attention due to the increasing global demand for light alkenes and synthesis gas. The theoretical understanding of this process through DFT and microkinetic modeling provides insights into catalyst design. This review focuses on the activation of methane, ethane, and propane on various surfaces with an emphasis on suppressing side reactions and coke formation.
