Prof. David Dodoo-Arhin, a Professor of Materials Science and Engineering and Director of the Institute of Applied Science and Technology at the University of Ghana, has been leading a groundbreaking project called "Valorisation of Waste Plastics for Fuel Production (VALOPLASTIQUES)". This project aims to tackle the plastic waste problem by recycling plastic waste into low-cost fuels using locally developed pyrolysis technology. The initiative is supported by the French Ministry of Europe and Foreign Affairs through the Embassy of France in Ghana.
