This book provides innovative and sustainable technologies for
converting plastic waste into valuable resources. The book is
structured into three sections, each focusing on a different aspect of
plastic waste management and conversion technologies. The first
section delves into sustainable technologies for producing various
types of fuels from plastic waste, including liquid fuel, hydrogen,
and aviation fuel. The second section examines technologies for
converting plastic waste into value-added chemicals and materials,
encompassing new materials, chemicals, and new plastics. The third
section focuses on the management and recycling of plastic waste,
covering treatment methods for general, electronic, micro-, and
nano-plastic waste and the application of artificial intelligence in
waste management. It also includes a life-cycle assessment of plastic
waste management processes. Further, the book examines the broader
concepts of circular economy and sustainability in the context of
plastic waste management. The chapters discuss the principles and
practices of a circular economy, aiming for a sustainable and
waste-free future. They also address the role of policies and the
implementation of green supply chains in promoting sustainable plastic
waste management, emphasizing the importance of integrating policy and
technological advancements. This book is a valuable resource for
professionals, researchers, and students of environmental sciences and
biotechnology. Key Features Emphasizes the sustainable technologies
