Two-step method converts polyesters into PHB through depolymerization and microbial fermentation, highlighting a sustainable option.

Upcycling process achieves depolymerization efficiency of 100% for polycaprolactone and 97% for PHB.
Chemical treatment involved alkaline hydrolysis with various KOH concentrations, optimizing the yield of PHB.
Cupriavidus necator B4383 was effective in producing significant amounts of PHB from decayed feedstocks.
Results indicate structural confirmation of upcycled PHB with promising thermal stability, supporting sustainable practices.

Faruga et al. (2025) studied this question.
