The use of plastic materials has seen a massive increase in
recent years, and generation of plastic wastes has grown
proportionately. Recycling of these wastes to reduce landfill
disposal is problematic due to the wide variation in properties and
chemical composition among the different types of plastics.
Feedstock recycling is one of the alternatives available for
consideration, and Feedstock Recycling of Plastic Wastes looks at
the conversion of plastic wastes into valuable chemicals useful as
fuels or raw materials. Looking at both scientific and technical
aspects of the recycling developments, this book describes the
alternatives available. Areas include chemical depolymerization,
thermal processes, oxidation and hydrogenation. Besides
conventional treatments, new technological approaches for the
degradation of plastics, such as conversion under supercritical
conditions and coprocessing with coal are discussed.
This book is essential reading for those involved in plastic
recycling, whether from an academic or industrial perspective.
Consultants and government agencies will also find it immensely
useful.
