Abstract

The utilization of waste feedstocks has potential for sustainable chemical production, yet its industrial scalability is hindered by techno-economic barriers associated with the valorization roadmap. Cooperation among industry stakeholders, research institutions, and government bodies is critical for the establishment of the green and sustainable production of waste-derived chemical products.
