A recent study from Tokyo University of Science (TUS) brings new hope for sustainable solutions. Researchers are exploring bioplastic recycling technologies (biorecycling) that use enzymes or microorganisms to break down polymer molecules.
Among the most promising candidates are microbial cutinases—enzymes naturally produced by bacteria and fungi that originally degrade plant cuticles and have now shown potential for recycling polyethylene terephthalate (PET), a common plastic widely used in plastic bottles and synthetic fibers.
By deepening the understanding of the structure and function of heat-resistant enzymes, this research lays the foundation for innovative recycling technologies, with the potential to significantly reduce plastic waste and promote environmental sustainability. As global demand for efficient recycling solutions continues to grow, biorecycling is emerging as a key pathway toward a cleaner, greener future.
