_Circular Plastics Economy: A Multidisciplinary Perspective_ provides
an understanding of the complex issues surrounding plastic waste
management, including environmental challenges, risks associated with
microplastic contamination, and the detection of micro- and
nano-plastics. The book explores conventional and emerging
technological solutions for plastic waste management, such as reusing,
recycling, pyrolysis, and heterogeneous catalysis while also
considering alternative approaches like biochar and microbe-based
degradation that foster a holistic perspective on the transition
towards a circular plastics economy.
With its multidisciplinary approach, this book provides an analysis of
the challenges and opportunities associated with circular plastics
economy, guiding the development of sustainable solutions on a global
scale. By addressing these diverse perspectives, this book offers a
guide for researchers and professionals interested in tackling the
challenges of plastic waste to achieve a sustainable and circular
approach to managing plastic waste.
* Addresses circular economy solutions by providing a
state-of-the-art knowledge on key scientific interventions for
transitioning towards a circular plastics economy
* Provides easy access to state-of-the-art findings and perspectives
on circular economy and plastics from multiple scientific disciplines
* Highlights environmental issues due to improper plastic waste
management
* Focuses on various technological interventions (both conventional
and emerging) throughout the lifecycle of plastics to help achieve
circularity
