Description
Summary:This study focuses on exploring the different methods of recycling for PET through the in-depth review of different research conducted. Also, to identify a feasible experimental parameter using Alkaline Hydrolysis to degrade the post-consumer PET bottles back into its monomers so that they can be reused into other re-creation of new PET products.
