Recycled Polymers Chemistry and Processing, Volume 1

The increasing consumption of different kinds of polymer based materials results in huge amount of waste materials. Once the polymers have fulfilled the function for which they have been manufactured, they are disposed of in landfills in large amounts each year, which is incompatible with current environmental goals. The disposal of polymer based plastics such as incineration and landfill results in environmental pollution and land occupation. These current levels of polymer disposal are not sustainable and polymer recycling, which is one of the most important actions currently available to red.
