Photothermal catalytic conversion of waste plastics into fuels and/or feedstocks using renewable solar energy can achieve solar-to-chemical conversion, resource sustainability, and environmental remediation simultaneously. However, the construction of photothermal catalysts with strong light absorption and high catalytic activity remains a great challenge. In this work, integrated cobalt single-site catalysts (Co SSCs), coupled with strong photothermal conversion, high catalytic activity, and stability, are employed to catalyze the glycolysis of polyesters. The unique coordination-unsaturated CoO₅ single-site can coordinate with the carbonyl groups in polyester, thus boosting the nucleophilic addition elimination processes. As a result, the space-time yield of Co SSCs is an order of magnitude higher than that of general catalysts. In addition, the polyethylene terephthalate (PET) conversion and bis(2-hydroxyethyl) terephthalate yield in photothermal catalysis are 5.4 and 6.6 times higher than those of thermal catalysis under the same conditions, which are contributed by the localized heating effect. Technical economic analysis shows that the recycling of 10⁵ tons of waste PET by photothermal catalysis consumes 146.4 GW·h electrical energy and misses 7.44 × 10⁴ tons of CO₂ emission. Therefore, a high-efficient photothermal catalytic plastic recycling system is of great significance for waste plastic valorization.

钴单中心催化剂上的光热催化聚酯升级回收

利用可再生太阳能将废塑料光热催化转化为燃料和/或原料，可以同时实现太阳能-化学转化、资源可持续性和环境修复。然而，构建具有强光吸收和高催化活性的光热催化剂仍然是一个巨大的挑战。在这项工作中，集成的钴单位点催化剂 (Co SSCs) 与强光热转化、高催化活性和稳定性相结合，被用于催化聚酯的糖酵解。_{独特的配位}不饱和CoO 5单中心可以与聚酯中的羰基配位，从而促进亲核加成消除过程。因此，Co SSCs 的时空产率比一般催化剂高一个数量级。此外，在相同条件下，光热催化的聚对苯二甲酸乙二醇酯（PET）转化率和对苯二甲酸双（2-羟乙酯）收率分别是热催化的5.4和6.6倍，这得益于局部加热效应。技术经济分析表明，光热催化回收10 ⁵吨废旧PET耗电146.4 GW·h，减排CO _{2 7.44×10}⁴吨排放。因此，高效的光热催化塑料回收系统对废旧塑料资源化具有重要意义。
