Optimizing algae based polyurethanes for controlled biodegradation
SBC: ALGENESIS CORP Topic: 08bToday approximately 7,000 million metric tons (MMt) of plastic waste has been generated, and only a few percentage of that had been recycled, with the vast majority accumulating in landfills, or worse in the natural environments like our oceans. If we continue at this same rate, there will be 96 billion tons of plastic waste accumulated on this planet by 2050; this has to change. Our goal is to de ...
