Workflow from Scientific Research

Integrated one-step photoelectrochemical (PEC) approach reported in this study, where the post-capture solution is directly used for conversion using solar energy, to generate syngas as energy vector while at the same time upcycling plastic waste derived ethylene glycol to the commodity chemical glycolic acid (shown in deprotonated form as glycolate). The abbreviations for the individual photocathode layers are in the experimental procedures section.
