Title:
A METHOD FOR DEGRADING A PLASTIC
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2015/067619
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method for degrading a plastic containing non-biodegradable polymers comprising submitting said plastic to at least one enzyme for modifying a polymer of said plastic which has a methane potential less than 5 Nm3/t +/- 20%, wherein at least one product resulting from the modification exhibits a methane potential greater than 10 Nm3/t +/- 20%.
