Plastics recycling, especially for mixed and contaminated plastics, remains a major pollution concern. When Ian Bishop and Ron Presswood first brought their idea for a recycling process that would create carbon and hydrogen to a professor at a Tier One University, they were told it was scientifically impossible.

Cars and vans are on their way to carbon neutrality. As the batteries to make HGVs electric would be too big to stick on the side of a big truck, hydrogen has often been seen as a possible silver bullet for this huge contributor to emissions. This leads us on to another major system challenge: aviation.
