Microwave-assisted co-pyrolysis of chlorella vulgaris and polypropylene: Characteristic and product distribution analyses

A systematic review on plastic waste conversion for a circular economy: recent trends and emerging technologies

“…During microwave-assisted pyrolysis, adding microwave absorbing susceptors to the feedstock helps to speed up the heating process and cut down on the processing time. 41 High-loss tangent materials transform microwave energy into heat and must be used as absorbents. 42 In some particular configurations and with certain feedstocks, this microwave heating can result in a uniform dispersion of heat.…”

Utilizing Chlorella vulgaris algae as an eco-friendly coagulant for efficient removal of polyethylene microplastics from aquatic environments

“…This process aids in the removal of different pollutants. In addition, the photosynthetic nature of microalgae enables them to colonize the interstitial spaces between sand particles [ 30 ]. This process of colonization acts as a natural filtration system, further purifying the water.…”
