Abstract:

We have seen for several years new alternatives to oil, like 3rd generation biofuels and new bioplastics. At present, little research seems to be taking place in the field of recycling our plastic waste through a biotechnological approach. A ton of recycled plastic would save 1900 liter of petroleum and predictions suggest that by 2070 oil reserves will have run out. It is therefore urgent to look for a new alternative that can meet our global consumption in many fields, whether in plastics or raw materials. Yet a strong global trend is emerging in the ecology and alternatives to oil, and biotechnologies aim to propose an effective, innovative and sustainable solution that allows developing a long-lasting and lucrative economic activity. Some scientist is working hard to develop a new breaking technology in order to recycle our plastic wastes by an enzymatic activity. These enzymes can be modified in order to have an optimized process and be able to produce the raw materials of these plastics. With this new technology, the current technological and economical walls can be transcended and new bio-based oil chemical products could be found in the industrial environment, the plastic cycle can be managed and optimized at medium-long time and the waste management can also be optimized in order to decrease the impact of our way of life on our environment.
