| dc.description.abstract | Enzymes sequestered from microbes have demonstrated the ability to readily digest amorphous regions of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) at ambient conditions. Though nascent, enzymatic depolymerization can soon vie for commercialization and provide monomeric feedstock at rates comparable to petrochemical feedstock for repolymerization and achieve the coveted goal of cradle-to-cradle recycling. | |
