Polyolefins and Polyethylene Terephthalate Package Wastes: Recycling and Use in Composites

Plastics are versatile materials used in a variety of sectors that have seen rapid increase their global production. Millions tonnes plastic wastes generated each year, which puts pressure on waste management methods to prevent accumulation within the environment. Recycling is an attractive disposal method and aids initiative circular economy, but recycling still has challenges overcome. This review starts with overview current European strategies for solid faced. Emphasis lies polyolefins (POs) polyethylene terephthalate (PET) found packaging, as packaging contributes signification proportion wastes. Both sections, POs PET, discuss sources wastes, chemical mechanical recycling, effects material properties, improve performance recycled finally applications PET. The concludes discussion future potential opportunities
