Upcycling plastics presents an opportunity not only to reduce plastic waste, but also to provide an alternative carbon source to fossil fuels. Herein, we present a protocol to upcycle plastics with resin codes 2-7 using a commercially available base-metal photocatalyst. We first conducted batch reactions, followed by a continuous, segmented flow system for gram-scale upcycling into value-added platform chemicals. This protocol, employing tandem carbon-hydrogen bond oxidation/carbon-carbon bond cleavage reactions, can be useful for photocatalytically transforming plastics at ambient conditions. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Li et al. (2023)..
将塑料进行升级再造不仅提供了减少塑料废物的机会,还提供了替代化石燃料的碳源。在此,我们提出了一种使用市售的基础金属光催化剂将树脂代码为 2-7 的塑料进行升级再造的方案。我们首先进行了批量反应,然后使用连续的分段流系统进行克级规模的升级再造,得到附加值的平台化学品。该方案采用串联的碳氢键氧化/碳-碳键断裂反应,可以在环境条件下有效地光催化转化塑料。有关该方案的使用和实施的详细信息,请参考 Li 等人(2023)。
