China can turn plastic waste to jet fuel at a low cost: study

Chinese researchers have developed a new, potentially low-cost chemical technique to convert waste plastics into aviation fuel. This innovation addresses the growing environmental concerns surrounding the over 460 million tonnes of plastic produced globally each year, as traditional disposal methods like incineration and landfilling are both wasteful and polluting. The proposed technology offers a promising alternative for managing plastic waste by transforming it into a valuable resource.
