Abstract
Plastic, commonly known as a synthetic
polymer, is used in a diverse range of applications on a large scale. It is
considered one of the most important and widely used materials in the world
today. However, as the global production of plastic increases, so does the
amount of plastic waste generate. Plastic waste has become a global
environmental concern due to its persistence in the environment, causing
various issues, including damage to wildlife, and contamination of soil, air,
and water resources. As a result, researchers have looked into different
techniques for handling plastic waste in an environment-friendly manner.
Plastic valorisation is an important aspect of waste management that presents
an opportunity to reduce plastic waste and its negative impact on the
environment. As the problems associated with plastic waste continue to
increase, continued research into innovative solutions for plastic valorisation
is crucial. With the recent advances in chemical recycling, mechanical
recycling, biodegradable plastics, and utilization of plastic waste resources,
there is growing hope for a sustainable future. The development of new plastic
waste valorisation technologies holds significant promise for the future, and
continued research and development will drive the global adoption of plastic
valorisation in waste management.
