Do you work on #circulareconomy or #lca for #plastics or #chemicals in Tokyo/Tsukuba, Japan? I'll be visiting @AIST_EN in the second half of February and would love to discuss - please reach out to schedule a meeting!

[Dr. Taylor Uekert @TaylorUekert]

Only 10% of the chemicals produced in the U.S. each year are recycled. Which is...not a lot considering that we use #Chemicals every day, from plastic packaging to cleaning spray to food additives. Find out how we can change this in my new open-access work in @RSC_Sus.

👀New paper in #RSCSustainability: "Mapping the end-of-life of chemicals for circular economy opportunities."

🚨We have a 2-year PDRA position in Chemical Process Engineering available in our group for the tech transfer of chemo-enzymatic photoreforming, where solar energy is used to upcycle plastic waste into hydrogen.

Deadline 10th of July!

Where in the world am I? I'll give you a hint: @ACLCA is hosting their annual life cycle assessment conference here!

[Dr. Taylor Uekert @TaylorUekert]

#plasticpollution -> #hydrogen and graphene is pretty cool but probably not as cheap or environmentally friendly as researchers claim (yet). Appreciated the opportunity to read this recent work from @DrJamesTour and comment on it for @cenmag!

[C&EN (Chemical & Engineering News) @cenmag]

Jolts of electricity can convert discarded plastic into hydrogen gas and graphene, potentially offering a way to manage a growing waste problem while also producing an environmentally-friendly fuel. https://t.co/G5jZ2GMTLO

I had 3.5 fantastic years in the @ReisnerLab. If you're thinking about a #PhDposition, check out these 3 great opportunities @Cambridge_Uni to explore photo(electro)catalysis for solar fuels and beyond!

[Cambridge Chemistry @ChemCambridge]

Three PhD studentships are available with the @ReisnerLab starting Oct 2024

Really pleased to see this work out! Coupling enzymes with photocatalysis for more efficient conversion of #plastic #waste into fuels and chemicals. Congrats to lead authors @_Subhajit5 and Jack Chengzhi Guo for turning this idea into a reality 🌎

[Reisner Lab @ReisnerLab]

🚨Check out our latest work together with @hollfelderlab on Chemoenzymatic Photoreforming: A Sustainable Approach for Solar Fuel Generation from Plastic Feedstocks, now on @J_A_C_S!

Huge congratulations to @_Subhajit5, Chengzhi Guo and all co-authors!

The last episode of Season 3 of @Greenscore1 is live! It will also be my last #podcast episode for a while as I take a little brain break 🫠 But I hope you'll enjoy @jakewhittall101 and my collection of top #Sustainability tips and takeaways https://t.co/SUtlgKkCZx

[Dr. Taylor Uekert @TaylorUekert]

Woohoo excited to be showcasing @PolyUpcycling @NREL at #ACSFall2023! If you're wondering how to optimize and down-select #plastic #recycling technologies, check out my talk this Wednesday at 9am.

[Dr. Taylor Uekert @TaylorUekert]

Huge thanks to @CEA_France @CNRS @RD20_AIST_GZR for hosting a fantastic summer school on the #EnergyTransition! It was so cool to represent @NREL and learn about the #sustainability solutions being accelerated by national labs and researchers across the world.

[Dr. Taylor Uekert @TaylorUekert]

Woohoo Season 3! Really excited to share the episodes we've got lined up for you all. And even if you're not into #makeup, check this episode out for a chat about #microplastics (they're everywhere!) with @LouDartford_MUA.

[Greenscore - A Sustainability Podcast @Greenscore1]

It's finally here! Check out the first episode of Season 3 w/ @LouDartford_MUA : https://t.co/TUfmAaUk4r

Season 3 is almost here! Take your guess on what episode 1 is about & comment below!

[Dr. Taylor Uekert @TaylorUekert]

Plastic is more than packaging, so how can we improve #textile #recycling? Happy to showcase @PolyUpcycling's research in this area at #TTNA23!

[Dr. Taylor Uekert @TaylorUekert]

Today marks my most random presentation invite to date: @CarpetRecycle's annual conference. Had a great time chatting with #carpet manufacturers and waste management about #plastic #recycling!

[Dr. Taylor Uekert @TaylorUekert]

What a lovely week to be in SF for #MRS2023! Want to learn about #CircularEconomy analysis from @NREL? Check out my talks:
- #plastic recycling, Thu 9:30am
- #hydrogen electrolyzer recycling, Fri 9:15am

[National Laboratory of the Rockies @NatLabRockies]

Happy #GPSAWeek! This week we are proud to showcase a few of our fantastic graduate & professional students who are #TransformingEnergy at the lab. You can check out our Facebook page to learn about their valuable research: https://t.co/2RlXgM2hJF
