New Teflon Recycling Method Turns The “Forever Chemical” into Toothpaste  | Happy Eco News
Scientists from Newcastle University and the University of Birmingham developed a room-temperature Teflon recycling method that turns Teflon waste into sodium fluoride using mechanical shaking with sodium metal. The process breaks strong carbon-fluorine bonds without heat or solvents, producing pure sodium fluoride for toothpaste, water treatment, and pharmaceutical applications.
