Good idea: convert plastic into parkinsons meds

https://www.independent.co.uk/news/health/plastic-bottles-transformed-parkinsons-drug-b2939376.html

Plastic bottles have been transformed into a drug to treat Parkinsonโ€™s disease using bacteria, a study has shown.

It is the first time a natural, biological process has been used to turn plastic waste, which would otherwise end up in landfill, into a drug for a neurological disease to help improve peopleโ€™s lives.

Most plastic waste is contaminated. Our new 'nano' recycling tech embraces this messy reality

A plastic drinks bottle is one of the most "recyclable" objects in the modern waste stream. It is lightweight and collected in huge volumes. Yet even for this item, the reality of recycling is messy: labels, inks, caps, food residues, colorants and the occasional wrong plastic all get bundled together. The chemistry may be simple, but the waste is not.
