Enzymatic upcycling of waxes, fats, and plastic waste

Scindo正在开发酶，将蜡和塑料中的碳链切割成分子结构单元，以服务于更广泛的化学工业。使用塑料作为原料为严重依赖原始石化产品的行业生产化学品具有双重好处：1）释放以前作为废物丢弃的塑料的价值，2）减少化工行业对原始石化产品的依赖，从而减少其碳足迹

Scindo is developing enzymes to cleave the carbon chains in waxes and plastics into molecular building blocks that can serve a broader chemicals industry. Using plastics as a feedstock to create chemicals for industries that are heavily reliant on virgin petrochemicals has a two-fold benefit of 1) unlocking value from plastics that were previously discarded as waste, and 2) decreasing the chemicals industry's reliance on virgin petrochemicals, and thereby reducing its carbon footprint
