Polyolefin hydrogenolysis offers a promising route for the upcycling of plastic waste, yet is hindered by the high cost of noble-metal catalysts and the safety concerns of high-pressure H2. Current systems typically rely on Ru or Pt catalysts to mediate key elementary steps, including H2 dissociation and C─C bond cleav...

Recycling and upcycling of plastic waste are typically energy-intensive and reducing their energy demand is crucial for the success of a sustainable plastic-to-resource transition. Hydro-conversion is a leading route for plastic waste valorization but typically requires high H2 pressures, especially for upcycling pol...

Hydrocracking over bifunctional metal-acid catalysts offers a promising route for converting polyolefin waste into liquid fuels, but highly active and economically viable non-noble-metal catalysts remain scarce. Here we show that such catalysts can be developed by independently tuning metal and acid sites to balance th...

Liquid organic hydrogen carriers (LOHCs) based on cycloalkane/aromatic pairs are promising for safe hydrogen storage and transportation, but their practical implementation is limited by sluggish dehydrogenation kinetics and catalyst deactivation under working conditions. Herein, we report a rationally designed platinum...
