With plastic waste becoming a major problem in the world, it is no exaggeration to say that scientists have found a way to easily destroy plastic in a matter of hours.
Millions of tons of plastic waste dumped into land and water each year are being dumped into land and aquatic life. The enzyme that destroys plastics in that way is believed to be a milestone in preventing catastrophe in the world.
It usually takes hundreds of years for plastics to decompose naturally. Plastic waste is emerging as one of the world’s biggest environmental problems.
In this case, scientists in Germany have now discovered the most effective enzyme, which is the enzyme that breaks down plastic components in less time. In this serious environment where plastic pollution is on the rise around the world, this discovery is seen as an important milestone.
Enzyme found in the grave
An enzyme called polyester hydrolase (PHL7) was recently discovered in a German cemetery. German scientists have found that the newly discovered PHL7 is twice as intense as LLC. The findings are currently being published in the scientific journal CamsusChem.
Decompose the plastic in 16 hoursம்
According to Wolfgang Zimmermann, a microbiologist at the University of Leipzig in Germany, the enzyme is capable of decomposing polyethylene terephthalate by up to 90 percent within 16 hours. It will play a significant role in establishing alternative energy saving plastic recycling processes.

No pre-treatment is required
In addition, scientists have found that no pre-treatment is required to decompose PHL7 plastic. The plastic is capable of decomposing without crushing or melting. Therefore, the stable recycling process of an important PET plastic can be carried out without the use of low carbon and petrochemicals from powerful enzymes such as PHL7.
Solve the plastic crisis
With the help of this enzyme, scientists hope to quickly overcome the environmental crisis caused by plastic. So far recycling is the only way to get rid of plastic. However, due to this, it is noteworthy that only 10 percent of plastic waste can be recycled.
