Enzymes help reduce plastic waste in rivers

Plastic waste forms worldwide at high levels, with 353 million tons annually produced, migratory, but is now largely unusable, as it decomposes at high temperatures.

An opportunity, according to the British newspaper “Daily Mail”, researchers from Western University designed, allowing it to crack at high temperatures.

Meanwhile, a second study, led by researchers from Montana State University and the University of Portsmouth, identified a second enzyme that drives TPADO, which breaks down terephthalate (TPA), one of the two chemicals they produce when their production degrades.

Vacuum hopes the enzymes will help engineers develop solutions for microplastics from small rivers.

“Our idea was to build polymers that would be able to encapsulate it, which would be expected to get it from housing in neighboring cells and at temperatures high enough to be able to degrade ETP,” Professor Monica Olvera explained to the study.

She explained, “In addition to the work environment in the ecological environment of the greenhouses, all this at high temperatures, and one of the students was able to take the test.”
