They’re working on increasing to industrial scale.
The description of their process sounds fairly exciting, in that it doesn’t need a solvent, uses a cheap, non-toxic catalyst and produces PET precursors. If they manage to get it to industrial scale they’ll go some way to solving the plastic problem.
As per the article:
