Review of Post-consumer Plastics and Pyrolysis Technology
Abstract: In both industrial and residential products, synthetic polymers are widely used. Since synthetic polymers are made from fossil fuels, they cannot decompose. disposal of plastic solid waste (PSW) has threatened the ecosystem seriously. In this article, we examine the various post-consumer PSW thermo-chemical recycling techniques. A method that has shown promise for converting PSW into valuable hydrocarbon compounds is pyrolysis. PSW has been broken down through thermal decomposition, however, value-added …
