Methods for Recycling Polymer Waste

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: This article focuses on analyzing the efficiency of polymer waste recycling and utilization technologies. The study showed that the recycling of polyethylene (PE) and polypropylene (PP) reaches 85% and 78%, respectively, due to their molecular weight and crystallinity, which are suitable for recycling processes. However, the recycling of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and polystyrene (PS) demonstrates lower efficiency, at 45% and 40%, respectively. The results indicate that to improve recycling efficiency, optimal parameters for temperature (400°C) and time (30 minutes) should be established. The article also emphasizes the importance of implementing environmentally safe recycling technologies for polymer waste.
