Citations in the corpus
- Recent Developments in the Chemical Recycling of PET (2012, background): “There are many other terminologies used for these plastic recycling categories; Hopewell and his colleagues have summarized these different terminologies (Hopewell et al., 2009).”
- A pathway to circular economy: Developing a conceptual framework for complex value assessment of resources recovered from waste (2017, background): “For example, recycling a PET bottle provides a net benefit in GHG of 1.5 tonnes of CO2-e per tonne of recycled PET (Hopewell et al., 2009), whereas the recycling of paint was found to contribute more to GHG (86 kg CO2-e per tonne) compared to its primary production (Turner et al., 2016).”
- Advances in barrier coatings and film technologies for achieving sustainable packaging of food products – A review (2021, background): “In response, many research organizations and big companies in the field are doing research to remove NIAS, odor and traces of food contamination from recycled polymers (Hopewell et al., 2009).”
