The National News featured Amit Goyal in an article about plastic producers stalling progress on a treaty to limit pollution. 

Microplastics enter the environment from the breakdown of macroplastics that often come from cosmetics, synthetic fibers on clothing, tire ware, industrial processes, packaging and more.

Nature News reported on ways that AI may be used to revolutionize plastic recycling and mentioned that Amit Goyal is working to develop a barcode system that can identify plastic types, aiming to reduce contamination and improve recycling rates.

A study, co-led by Amit Goyal (CBE), is exploring semiconductor advancements that could lead to more powerful and flexible electronics.

Study suggests innovation could improve photovoltaics, display screens, wireless communication devices, medical devices and more.

The National News reported on how AI can be used to increase plastic recycling rates and quoted Amit Goyal, who is working on the use of “bar codes” to indicate what type of plastic an item is made of to help the process of sorting different recyclable materials. 

The expert panel recently issued a report on the National Science Foundation’s participation in the Materials Genome Initiative.
