A solution to our waste problem! Scientists create a super enzyme that eats up plastic in just days

  • 2021-06-21

While the vast amount of plastic products humans produce provides convenience, they also harm the planet due to their non-reusability. To address this problem, scientists have recently created a super enzyme that can "eat up" plastic waste in just a few days, rather than hundreds of years. According to CNN, the University of Portsmouth in the UK issued a statement stating that the research team combined PET hydrolase with another enzyme to create a new artificial enzyme. This new product can quickly act on polyethylene terephthalate (PET), breaking down PET, which originally took hundreds of years to decompose, into its basic components in just a few days, allowing it to be reused to make new plastic products. Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) is a widely used artificial plastic polymer and the most common thermoplastic used in beverage bottles, carpets, and clothing. Considering the super enzyme's extraordinary ability to decompose PET, if it can be successfully developed and mass-produced, it means that existing plastic products can be recycled and reused, saving a lot of energy while also solving the global waste and carbon emission problems.
