Science Can Now Turn Plastic Bags Into Fuel!
Scientists have figured out how to turn polyethylene into diesel fuel! How did they do this and what does it mean for the future of plastic? The Shocking Truth ...
==========
Plastic is everywhere, it's in everything -- your phone, this camera, the landfills, the mountains, the forest, the beach, the ocean, sea turtles, so many fish… it's everywhere. Sup gas guzzlers, Trace here for DNews. If you never had to take organic chemistry then you don't know the scourge that is carbon -- it's in everything. Everything is a carbon and hydrogen chain. You spend your time moving electrons around, changing bonds and hating life. Orgo is extremely important, because basically all life contains the organic molecule carbon. I mean, molecularly: humans, plants, dogs, cats, pizza… pretty much everything contains carbon. The plastic polyethylene is a long chain of carbons and hydrogens with some strong double bonds between chunks. Petroleum? It's ...
