However, it is challenging to recycle mixed waste fractions or common multilayer materials by using current mechanical recycling technology. Enzymatic hydrolysis potentially offers a solution because of its mild conditions and selectivity. In this study, we show that polyester hydrolases can be applied to recycle PET-PE multilayer packaging waste without costly amorphization pretreatment. Polyester hydrolases were produced by recombinant <i>Pichia pastoris</i> yeast and used to efficiently depolymerize the PET layer of PET-PE multilayer trays. High yields were obtained at laboratory scale with unpurified enzyme and high PET-PE loading (10–20% w/w PET-PE, ≥94% PET depolymerization, and ≥80% terephthalic acid recovery). The enzymatic reaction was scaled up to 4.5 kg of PET-PE production waste. After depolymerization (≥95% PET depolymerized), terephthalic acid was isolated and repolymerized into rPET. The remaining PE layer was recovered, treated with an alkaline cleaning step to remove residual PET contamination, and successfully reprocessed into rPE films with similar properties to virgin low-density PE. This study demonstrates the applicability of enzymatic hydrolysis for the recycling of PET-PE multilayer materials and highlights its general potential for the recycling of polyesters in mixed post-consumer waste.","PeriodicalId":25,"journal":{"name":"ACS Sustainable Chemistry & Engineering","volume":"71 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":8.4,"publicationDate":"2025-05-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144165454","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here, we develop a sustainable approach integrating mechanochemistry with advanced oxidation for recovering valuable metals from spent ternary lithium-ion batteries. Under optimized conditions, exceptional leaching efficiencies of 98.89%, 98.90%, 97.42%, and 98.99% were achieved for Li, Ni, Co, and Mn, respectively. The free radical capture experiments demonstrated that the mechanochemical process activates ammonium persulfate, generating hydroxyl and sulfate radicals, which was further confirmed through selective radical quenching experiments. The synergistic effect of these radicals induces the collapse of the layered structure of cathode material, as evidenced by X-ray diffraction analysis. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy demonstrated that citric acid facilitates the reduction of high-valence metal ions to their soluble states while maintaining an acidic environment conducive to metal leaching. This innovative approach eliminates the conventional separate leaching step by employing a wet ball-milling process where citric acid simultaneously chelates and reduces metal ions, resulting in a significantly homogeneous precursor that directly enhances the final calcination product. The regenerated ternary cathode material exhibited excellent electrochemical performance with a discharge capacity of 125 mAh·g<sup>–1</sup> and 94.64% capacity retention after 100 cycles. Life cycle assessment indicated significantly reduced environmental impact compared to traditional hydrometallurgical processes. This study provides new insights into the mechanistic role of free radicals in solid-phase mechanochemical systems and establishes a sustainable strategy for battery recycling.","PeriodicalId":25,"journal":{"name":"ACS Sustainable Chemistry & Engineering","volume":"244 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":8.4,"publicationDate":"2025-05-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144165545","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We explore the role of vacancies in NG for stabilizing iron-based SACs (Fe-SACs) by using density functional theory (DFT). First, we examine the stability of various vacancy types in graphene and NG supports, addressing the question of preferential formation of specific structural defects as potential sites for metal binding. We reveal simple rules governing the stability of vacancies and show that nitrogen doping can bring about vacancy healing. We identify preferred binding sites for Fe atoms/ions, specifically single and double vacancies, and analyze how the nitrogen-doping pattern in a vacancy affects the interaction of Fe with the SAC support. The results show that the positions of nitrogen(s) and the local charge environment significantly influence the stability of the Fe-SACs. Notably, some Fe@NG configurations, although not the most thermodynamically stable, exhibit enhanced catalytic performance, particularly for a CO<sub>2</sub> reduction reaction (CO<sub>2</sub>RR). These findings offer valuable insights into vacancy engineering as a strategy for designing high-performance Fe-SACs and emphasize the interplay among vacancy types, nitrogen concentration, and catalyst stability in driving the catalytic behavior.","PeriodicalId":25,"journal":{"name":"ACS Sustainable Chemistry & Engineering","volume":"88 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":8.4,"publicationDate":"2025-05-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144165548","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This limitation does not allow for the application of conventional environmental social governance (ESG) rating methodologies in such cases. This puts emerging technologies at a disadvantage to investors and shareholders given that ESG reporting is an eminent financial growth instrument. To compensate for this gap, a novel ESG evaluation technique is proposed and designed to assess both traditional (TRL 7–9) and emerging chemical process technologies (TRL 4–6). This approach challenges present economic arguments against adopting new technologies with future, yet uncertain, prospects for economical gain. Historically, ESG methodologies have focused on evaluating organizations, including companies. We propose an alternative approach, evaluating technologies and their applications in an entrepreneurial context. This study developed principles to modify criteria from the established commercial ESG framework of Morgan Stanley Capital Investment (MSCI). These principles were applied to relevant environmental and social criteria derived from MSCI’s primary ESG grading methodology. The ESG Industry Materiality Map and the Global Industry Classification Standard reveal that critical issues within the governance pillar are not deemed highly significant for the chemical and materials sectors, while pivotal issues under the environmental and social pillars are prioritized in ESG evaluations. A case study exemplified and demonstrated the proposed approach in the context of ammonia manufacturing in Australia. It compared traditional centralized ammonia production using steam methane reforming and Haber–Bosch (HB) conversion with the alternative regional, premarket production using high-temperature plasma (HTP) and green, electric mini-Haber–Bosch processes (e-mini-HB). The premarket technology is superior in environmental rating and inferior in social rating, which can be used to provide commercial advice to emerging HTP/e-mini-HB companies. As the environmental score has a higher MSCI-ESG weight factor, a superior overall ESG rating is determined for the premarket HTP/e-mini-HB technology.","PeriodicalId":25,"journal":{"name":"ACS Sustainable Chemistry & Engineering","volume":"18 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":8.4,"publicationDate":"2025-05-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144165544","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Mars’ harsh environment─marked by a thin CO<sub>2</sub>-rich atmosphere, extreme temperature swings, dust storms, and high radiation─poses significant challenges for conventional processing. Plasma technologies, known for their high energy density, chemical reactivity, and operational flexibility, offer promising solutions. This review examines recent advances in nonthermal plasma systems for key ISRU tasks, including CO<sub>2</sub> decomposition for oxygen and fuel production, water extraction from hydrated minerals, and regolith sintering for habitat construction. Special attention is given to microwave and dielectric barrier discharge plasmas, which have shown enhanced oxygen yield and energy efficiency compared to traditional systems like NASA’s MOXIE. Spark plasma sintering is also highlighted for its potential in producing high-strength ceramics from Martian soil. Despite technical promise, deployment challenges remain, including thermal stress resistance, dust mitigation, and energy optimization. Strategies such as advanced material selection, self-cleaning surfaces, and integration with renewable energy are proposed to improve system resilience. Beyond Mars, these plasma technologies have strong potential for Earth-based applications including CO<sub>2</sub> valorization, decentralized water treatment, and low-energy waste recycling. By bridging extraterrestrial and terrestrial needs, plasma-driven ISRU represents a dual-use innovation platform for advancing sustainable engineering under extreme constraints.","PeriodicalId":25,"journal":{"name":"ACS Sustainable Chemistry & Engineering","volume":"43 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":8.4,"publicationDate":"2025-05-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144165549","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
