Although aqueous-phase reactions are an environmentally friendly approach to organic synthesis, their effectiveness is limited by the inefficiency of coupling immiscible mass transfer with surface reactions. Here, we present a cross-scale, integratable catalytic stirrer that reduces this limitation by employing a syn...

Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) plastic waste is highly resistant to natural degradation, and conventional chemical recycling routes typically rely on acidic, basic or hydrogen-assisted processes under harsh conditions. Here, we present a solvent-free, oxidative depolymerization strategy that converts PET plastic wa...
The biocatalytic conversion of green methanol, a promising feedstock, into high value-added products is seen as an attractive way to establish sustainable biomanufacturing. Although natural and engineered microorganisms can utilize methanol, efficiently converting C1 carbon into valuable chemicals in growing cells rema...
