The premise of piranha solution is to remove carbon from its volume, deconstruct it. So, that would lead me to believe that any discoloration was from the carbon, and once it has been totally removed, the solution would become both clear and pure again.

In Norway we pay 20 cents extra when we buy a bottle of soda, and then we get that back when we return the bottle to a store. It's called refund, or "Pant" in Norwegian. 96% of all bottles get returned. 20% of the plastic from the returned bottles get reused in new bottles and the rest is used in other products such as fleece clothing and blankets. The only reason only 20% is used in bottles is that the plastic gets a little cloudy when a high proportion is recycled PET. We also have refund on aluminium cans and some glass bottles.

I think the the more important thing is to develop plastics that compost on their own over time. Obviously you wouldn't want this for devices with a longer life-span like electronics or toys, but even if you could make a bottle that degrades after 5-10 years, that would be plenty of time.

@@jakkuwolfinsomnia8058 I believe that this sort of thing could be extremely dangerous as there are many dangerous elements in landfill waste, and they could be aerosolized when the piranha solution explodes due to organic solvents that are also in the waste. And any elements that go in must either stay in solution or come out, including mercury and the like. Mercury would probably be vaporized by the heat produced. Either way, even after algae treatment, I'd be very wary of releasing the gas into the air. The explosions themselves could be avoided by putting the waste in slowly, but then, wouldn't just burning the waste in a strongly oxidizing flame do the same thing?
