    Abstract: A residential plastic recycling unit addresses the challenges of plastic waste management. The unit incorporates a unique enzyme blend capable of degrading plastic containing polyethylene terephthalate into environmentally benign constituents. The unit features precision nozzles for uniform enzyme blend distribution, a grated shelf and receptacle for supporting plastic waste, and a temperature control device with a user interface for precise regulation. After enzymatic degradation, the resulting heterogenous mixture is easily removed and the receptacle cleaned.

    Abstract: There are provided processes for recycling polystyrene waste. The processes can comprise dissolving said polystyrene waste in ethylbenzene under conditions to obtain a polystyrene/ethylbenzene mixture, adding the polystyrene/ethyl benzene mixture to a hydrocarbon polystyrene non-solvent under conditions to obtain precipitated polystyrene and washing the precipitated polystyrene with additional portions of hydrocarbon polystyrene non-solvent under conditions to obtain twice-washed polystyrene. The twice-washed polystyrene can optionally be dried and formed into polystyrene pellets. There is also provided recycled polystyrene obtained from such processes for recycling polystyrene waste.

    Abstract: Carbon fiber reclaimed from a composite part is described. The composite part may include the carbon fiber and a resin. The carbon fiber may be reclaimed from the composite part by a method comprising placing the composite part and a first solvent in an interior portion of a centrifuge insert that is defined by a wall having a plurality of perforations extending therethrough. The method may further comprise centrifuging the composite part and the first solvent contained in the centrifuge insert to allow extraction of the first solvent and at least a portion of the resin through the perforations of the centrifuge insert. The method may further comprise allowing the carbon fiber to collect in the interior portion of the centrifuge insert. The carbon fiber collected in the interior portion of the centrifuge insert may be at least partially separated from the resin.
