Hydrogenolysis of Polyethylene and Polypropylene into Propane over Cobalt-Based Catalysts

Hydrogenolysis of Polyethylene and Polypropylene into Propane over Cobalt-Based Catalysts

The development of technologies to recycle polyethylene (PE) and polypropylene (PP), globally the two most produced polymers, is critical to increase plastic circularity. Here, we show that 5 wt % cobalt supported on ZSM-5 zeolite catalyzes the solvent-free hydrogenolysis of PE and PP into propane w...
