Plasticure

The Problem

In 2012, 25,2 million tons of plastic waste were produced in Europe alone, among which only 26 % were recycled while 36 % were burned in order to produce energy and the remaining 38 % were dumped or buried.

Our solution

Our ambition is to design a system capable of producing a interesting molecule from the digestion products of plastic pollutants.

The PlastiCure project solves two problems:

  • Degradation of plastic waste : with a system of bio-degradation of plastic, our bacteria will transforme it to a viable product
  • Synthesis of a medicine : with our product and a biosynthesis way, we want to product a medecine.
What should this page contain?
  • A clear and concise description of your project.
  • A detailed explanation of why your team chose to work on this particular project.
  • References and sources to document your research.
  • Use illustrations and other visual resources to explain your project.

Advice on writing your Project Description

We encourage you to put up a lot of information and content on your wiki, but we also encourage you to include summaries as much as possible. If you think of the sections in your project description as the sections in a publication, you should try to be consist, accurate and unambiguous in your achievements.

Judges like to read your wiki and know exactly what you have achieved. This is how you should think about these sections; from the point of view of the judge evaluating you at the end of the year.


References

iGEM teams are encouraged to record references you use during the course of your research. They should be posted somewhere on your wiki so that judges and other visitors can see how you though about your project and what works inspired you.
