Plastic waste can only be recycled a finite number of times. Each round, the material is degraded, which makes achieving true clarity difficult. Only specific sources can be recycled, further limiting the possibilities. After a period of exhaustive research, the team decided to explore molecular recycling technology. A much broader scope of waste can be broken down an infinite number of times—a game-changer not only for one company but the industry …
