A team at Inner Mongolia Normal University has demonstrated a process that takes shredded PET plastic, dissolves it in a chemical bath, and runs an electrical current through it. What comes out the other side is hydrogen gas — a clean fuel — and a chemical called formate, which is used in animal feed and food preservation. Both have commercial value. Neither requires new raw materials beyond the waste plastic itself.
