Green and inexpensive method to recover Bisphenol-A from polycarbonate wastes

Hydroglycolysis of polycarbonate waste from used compact discs was developed to recover Bisphenol-A (BPA) as a valuable material. Experiments were done in glycerin and water as an alternative green solvent. The effect of solvent ratios has been studied to evaluate BPA recovery. The use of 30% aqueou...
