Plastics, celebrated for their versatility, affordability, and durability, have become indispensable across industries. However, their extensive use and poor disposal practices have resulted in severe environmental challenges. A significant portion of global plastic production is dedicated to single-use items, leading to the accumulation of waste in landfills and natural environments. This persistent issue is exacerbated by the reliance on finite resources, such as oil and gas, for plastic manufacturing. Recycling has emerged as a critical strategy to address these challenges, offering the potential to reduce resource consumption, carbon emissions, and waste volumes. Despite its importance, recycling rates vary widely depending on the type of plastic, its application, and regional capabilities, highlighting the need for technological advancements and efficient practices. This book, Recycling Technologies for Plastic Waste, provides a comprehensive exploration of cutting-edge innovations in plastic recycling. The initial chapters lay the groundwork by analyzing the types, sources, and environmental impact of plastic waste, while emphasizing the critical need for sustainable recycling solutions. Subsequent sections delve into specific aspects of recycling: recovery of polymeric materials, recycling of engineering and thermosetting plastics, synthetic fibers, and waste rubbers. Special attention is given to emerging solutions for marine plastic debris and the thermal analysis of recycled materials to enhance quality and performance. The book also examines mechanical recycling processes for packaging plastics and anticipates future advancements in recycling technologies and applications. By combining insights from environmental science, materials engineering, and waste management, it offers a multidisciplinary perspective on tackling plastic waste sustainably. Designed for researchers, engineers, policymakers, and educators, this book bridges knowledge gaps and provides actionable insights into modern recycling techniques. It also serves as a valuable resource for students and academics, equipping them with the tools needed to advance the field of plastic waste management. Through its detailed analysis and forward-looking approach, this book contributes to global sustainability efforts by promoting innovative solutions for one of the planet's most pressing environmental issues.
