Efficient mechano-enzymatic hydrolysis of polylactic acid under moist-solid conditions.

This study demonstrates efficient mechano-enzymatic hydrolysis of polylactic acid to lactic acid under moist-solid conditions using Humicola insolens cutinase, enabling closed-loop recycling with minimal solvent waste.

Solid-state enzymatic hydrolysis of mixed PET-cotton textiles

This paper develops a method to enzymatically hydrolyze mixed PET-cotton textiles without prior melt-amorphization, achieving high yields of TPA and glucose.

Clean Enzymatic depolymerization of highly crystalline polyethylene terephthalate in moist-solid reaction mixtures

This study demonstrates that enzymes can efficiently depolymerize high crystallinity PET in moist-solid mixtures, achieving higher yields and selectivity than previous methods.

Rapid mechanoenzymatic saccharification of lignocellulosic biomass without bulk water or chemical pre-treatment

This paper demonstrates a solvent-free enzymatic method for lignocellulosic biomass saccharification with high yield and low protein loading, producing concentrated monosaccharides without chemical pre-treatment.
