Abstract
Upcycling processes via tandem chemical deconstruction and biological transformation has shown promise for poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) waste open-loop management. Under this framework, postconsumer PET becomes a low-cost and abundant starting material for the synthesis of high-value chemicals.
