The main objective is to develop an innovative plastic waste-based process to avoid the down-cycling treatments of plastics and promote the upgrading♻️ of #PET waste through the implementation of the use of synthetic biology, (bio)chemical, and (bio)process engineering. [2/3]

REPLAY wants to reduce the negative environmental 🌍 and economic outcomes generated by #plastic disposal practices. The project aims to realise a new concept of plastic (bio)refinery in which post-consumer plastic #waste can be seen as a feedstock for microbial activity. [1/3]

[2/3] The prospects of using green chemistry principles and #enzymatic biodiversity for the #sustainable degradation of traditionally non-biodegradable plastics is now coming real after the last advances with the use and formulation of nature-inspired (DESs)

[1/3] The basic constituent plastic polymers are dominated by polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP), polystyrene (PS), and polyethylene terephthalate (PET), counting for more than 75% of global #plastics production🥤.

#REPLAY aims at demonstrating that the hydrolysates / depolymerisation products deriving from end-use traditional #plastics can be considered as feedstock not in competition with food to be provided to microorganisms to be sustainably upgraded to virgin chemical platforms.

Monomers derived from #PET depolymerization, a basic constituent polymer of plastics, can be upgraded by engineered #microorganisms 🦠 in useful chemicals such as carboxylic acids, addressing the logic of rethinking and pursuing the goal of “zero #waste”.

2/2 waste produced in the world 🥤. The #REPLAY project aims to valorise the #PET degradation products, enzymatically or chemically generated, to create a novel value chain, and a hybrid refinery model that will introduce plastics into the #CircularEconomy🌍.

Even though the plastic industry produces a broad range of plastic products, the basic constituent polymers are dominated by PE, PP, PS, and PET. The post-consumer #plastic waste is mixtures of these plastics that altogether amount to 200 Mt, constituting 70% of the total plastic

Our PhD Vittorio Senatore attended the Annual Conference of the Microbiology Society in Birmingham and presented his work in an offered oral #talk: "Yeast fermentation for the upcycling of PET monomers" where he discussed the latest results of the REPLAY project.
