The plastic packaging accounts for great proportion in the packaging industry, resulting in great confrontation and challenge for global carbon reduction development because of the plastic packaging wastes (PPW) generation. Thus the fully reasonable utilization of the PPW presents a positive strategy. Based on the international practical policy and demand of PPW management, the article classified the recycling and separation technology, and the reuse and utilization disposal approaches of the PPW. Firstly, it defined the PPW’s source, classification and chemical composition, focusing on the recycling and separation technology principles and practices. Then it discussed several PPW disposal approaches emphasizing on the recycling, and summarized the principles and practices of mechanical recycling, chemical recycling, and energy recycling and biodegradable utilization on the PPW. Finally, it presented a suggestion on recycling and utilization of PPW.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
