Harnessing Synthetic Biology to Empower a Circular Plastics Economy.
Biotechnology offers unique opportunities for mitigating and upcycling plastic waste with low-intensity bioprocesses. Synthetic biology can further enhance bioprocesses for sustainably dealing with plastic waste and supporting a circular plastics economy. We provide an overview of current strategies for leveraging synthetic biology and microbial community engineering to degrade and upcycle plastic waste, with application to both industrial and environmental settings. We further discuss complementary strategies for pre-treating plastic materials and altering recalcitrant vinyl polymers to enhance bioprocessing efficiency. Additionally, we provide commentary on future research directions that would propel biotechnological solutions towards application in a circular plastics economy.
期刊介绍：
Published since 1954, the Canadian Journal of Microbiology is a monthly journal that contains new research in the field of microbiology, including applied microbiology and biotechnology; microbial structure and function; fungi and other eucaryotic protists; infection and immunity; microbial ecology; physiology, metabolism and enzymology; and virology, genetics, and molecular biology. It also publishes review articles and notes on an occasional basis, contributed by recognized scientists worldwide.
