      This technology promotes a circular economy by transforming waste into usable resources, reducing the need for virgin materials and minimizing environmental degradation.

        If only this was to work and be embraced by many, we would surely deal with the plastics that bring about most of the pollution.

                This is impressive given just how much plastic waste is in most if not all countries. It will go a long way in minimizing the plastic menace.

                This is a a significant advancement in recycling technology. However it is not a sustainable alternative energy source. They should invest more in renewable energy for better future.
