Enzymes Show Promise for Breaking Down Plastics
Original: Advances in amidases and urethanases as depolymerization biocatalysts
Researchers have published a review in Nature examining advances in amidases and urethanases as depolymerization biocatalysts. The work surveys how these enzymes can break down synthetic polymers, a key step in chemical recycling of plastics. Interest in enzyme-based depolymerization is growing as industries look for biological alternatives to conventional plastic waste treatment.
Why now: Growing scientific and industrial focus on biological solutions for plastic recycling
