Conversion of plastic trash into valuable energy is a viable approach for tackling this type of waste. Various procedures may be used to transform plastic waste into energy, including incineration, pyrolysis, and gasification. Incineration is the prevailing approach for the conversion of plastic waste into energy. One of the challenges is collection and categorization of plastic garbage. Another pertains to the development of conversion technologies that are both economically viable and energy-efficient. Despite these challenges, converting plastic waste into useful energy is a promising way to address the problem of plastic pollution. The technology in question is now in the developmental stage, although it holds promise for playing a substantial role in facilitating the transition towards a more sustainable future.
The rising concern about plastic garbage has stimulated the development of inventive
strategies aimed at both reducing its negative effects on the environment and
exploiting its potential as a valuable resource. In recent years, there has been a growing
interest among academicians and scientists in investigating innovative approaches for
the conversion of plastic trash into valuable energy resources. The aforementioned
transformational process not only effectively tackles the issue of plastic pollution,
but also makes a substantial contribution towards the development of sustainable
energy solutions.
The issue of plastic trash poses a significant challenge to the ecology. Since the
1950s, an approximate total of 8 billion tons of plastic garbage has been generated,
with a very small proportion of this material being subjected to recycling processes.
The remaining plastic waste ends up in landfills, incinerators, or the environment
