Depolymerization of Waste PET with Phosphoric Acid–Modified Silica Gel Under Microwave Irradiation

Chemical recycling of waste poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) using phosphoric acid–modified silica gel as a solid catalyst is reported. Advantageously, microwave irradiation was used to progress the depolymerization of PET. In this study, depolymerization of PET with a small amount of water is sug...

description Chemical recycling of waste poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) using phosphoric acid–modified silica gel as a solid catalyst is reported. Advantageously, microwave irradiation was used to progress the depolymerization of PET. In this study, depolymerization of PET with a small amount of water is suggested as a suitable method. The depolymerized product, terephthalic acid was obtained and assigned by 1 H NMR and FT-IR spectroscopy. Finally, over 90 % conversion to terephthalic acid was achieved when waste plastic bottles were treated with the method. This results confirm the importance of the microwave power technique as a promising recycling method for plastic bottles made from PET, resulting in monomer recovery in addition to substantial energy saving.
