dc.description.abstractThe management of plastics waste is one of the most urgent and significant global problems now. Historically, waste plastics have been predominantly discarded, mechanically recycled, or incinerated for energy production. However, these approaches typically relied on thermal processes like conventional pyrolysis, which are energy-intensive and unsustainable. In this Minireview, we discuss some of the latest advances and future trends in the chemical upcycling of waste plastics by photocatalytic, electrolytic, and microwave-assisted pyrolysis processes as more environmentally-friendly alternatives to conventional thermal reactions. We highlight how the transformation of different types of plastics waste by exploiting alternative energy sources can generate value-added products such as fuels (H2 and other carbon-containing small molecules), chemical feedstocks, and newly functionalized polymers, which can contribute to a more sustainable and circular economy.en_US
