We had a great time touring Placon's Ecostar PET recycling facility today and seeing rPET being produced.

Interesting thing i learned about microplastics today.

Today I learned where microplastics in the ocean come from. They are primarily from synthetic textiles and car tires. Also, I learned the pros and cons of the different types of polyethylene resins (HDPE, LLDPE, LDPE).

Our 193 page review on plastic recycling has just been published in @green_rsc. This includes everything that I have learned about plastics and plastic recycling during the past 18 months with 35 co-authors (@MadVictorZ, @houqian_li, @VanLehnGroup). pubs.rsc.org/en/content/art…

We are very lucky to have Jorge Rubalcaba from DOW come talk to our class today about manufacturing of PE. CBE562 students post what you learned from the lecture in this thread.

I am excited to work on this new project (announced today) with @MTU_CSA and @MadVictorZ and get into the area of MSW conversion. This is a new area for our group. We will be getting our hands dirty with this project. energy.gov/eere/bioenergy…

After missing his previous early morning talks, finally caught @gwhuber2 in his keynote speech at #ACSFall2022 this morning. George is among the leading scientists exploring catalytic biomass conversion. Great session by @cuwp_uwmadison #ACSChicago
