A researcher at Texas A&M University has found a new way to turn plastic waste into green hydrogen using catalysts and ...

The research shows how catalyst surfaces use hydrogen leaving from these organic carriers to transform the PET to p-xylene, a molecule that can be used for fuels or chemicals. Shetty says that his ...

Microplastics, plastics smaller than 5 millimeters, are littered across the world, contributing to global warming, disrupting ...

The team also used the ozone-UV process to convert p-xylene to terephthalic acid, a notable precursor for the synthesis of polyethylene terephthalate (PET). Their technology offers a possible ...

Microplastics, plastics smaller than 5 millimeters, are littered across the world, contributing to global warming, disrupting food chains, and harming ...

For example, it has developed a technology for combining the CO 2 with hydrogen to produce p-Xylene; a chemical that is a building block for polyester fibres and the resin used for plastic bottles.

13). The chlorination is catalysed by traces of iodine and the reaction under these conditions probably involves both homolytic and heterolytic steps (see Chapter 4, p 49). Hexachloro- p-xylene, by ...

3) Cee-Nine loading facilities. 4) Truck Unloading facilities for Methonol and P-Xylene. 5) BG Loading of SKO\MS. 6) Doping of blue dye in SKO. E) Development of Small Scale Industries and ...

In May, Letter of Intent was received for the manufacture of 30,000 tonnes per annum of O-xylene 1,03,000 tonnes per annum of P-xylene and 1,50,000 tonnes per annum of purified terephthatic acid.
