Key Points

Recovering bisphenol-A effectively from fiber-reinforced polycarbonate demonstrates the feasibility of the method.
Chemical recycling using hydrothermal processing (HTP) produced significant amounts of bisphenol-A from polycarbonate polymers.
Utilizing an alkali catalyst during the process enhances the recovery efficiency of bisphenol-A from polycarbonate materials.
Addressing environmental concerns, this method highlights a promising approach for sustainable recycling in the plastics industry.

Implication

Chemical recycling of fiber-reinforced polycarbonate yields bisphenol-A through hydrothermal processing, indicating its potential in sustainable material recovery.

Abstract

Chemical recycling of industrial fiber-reinforced polycarbonate (PC) to produce bisphenol-A (BPA) is carried out in the present study using water and alkali catalyst (KOH) via hydrothermal processing (HTP). The operating...
