Tetrapak waste is one of the most abundant wastes in the world. It consists of layers of paper, LDPE, and aluminium foil. It is difficult to recycle, however it can be converted into valuable gaseous fuel if processed by microwave heat using a dual reactor catalytic process, SiC as microwave absorbe...
