“…Again, there are little to no deposit policies on the continent, and therefore this process can be considered as a more efficient way to reduce plastic waste in the environment [39]. Chemical recycling [37,38,40,41] plays a major role in transiting circular economies and compounds like hydrocarbons and closed-loop recycling materials [40,41]. These systems allow for the elimination of toxic substances and, as a result, the management of difficult waste streams [38].…”

Global plastic waste generation is about 300 million metric tons annually and poses crucial health and environmental problems. Africa is the second most polluted continent in the world, with over 500 shipping containers of waste being imported every month. The US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) report suggests that about 75% of this plastic waste ends up in landfills. However, landfills management is associated with high environmental costs and loss of energy. In addition, landfill leachates end up in water bodies, are very detrimental to human health, and poison marine ecosystems. Therefore, it is imperative to explore eco-friendly techniques to transform plastic waste into valuable products in a sustainable environment. The trade-offs of using plastic waste for road construction and as a component in cementitious composites are discussed. The challenges and benefits of producing liquid fuels from plastic waste are also addressed. The recycling of plastic waste to liquid end-products was found to be a sustainable way of helping the environment with beneficial economic impact.

“…Figure shows the mechanism of H 2 and carbon produced from plastic over a catalyst . Pyrolytic oil from plastic has properties similar to diesel but under similar reaction conditions it leads to higher NO x , CO, CO 2 and unburned hydrocarbon emissions . This may be attributed to their higher aromatic content, higher C:H ratio and longer ignition delay period .…”

BACKGROUND: Plastic waste has been growing at an alarming rate with dissatisfactory recycling rates. It has a potential to be used for the recovery of hydrogen and carbon nanotubes due to its intrinsic properties. RESULTS: Thermo-chemical processes may be used to tap into the recovery of these resources from the wastes. Catalysts can be employed to increase the gaseous yield and to optimize the process parameters. Hydrogen production is greatly influenced by the catalyst properties, temperature, steam and feedstock. Similarly, the carbon deposits formed are influenced by many factors such as type of metal catalyst used and metal-support interaction. This review focuses on studies employing catalytic thermo-chemical processes for extracting hydrogen and carbon nano structures from plastic wastes while evaluating the role of parameters such as temperature, catalyst type, catalyst composition, steam/feed ratio, feed rate, feedstock and their effect on the product yields. CONCLUSION: In view of increasing concerns regarding waste management, climate change and energy security the possibility of employing waste products for producing clean energy in a sustainable manner is appealing and needs additional fundamental research.C 5+ and cracking products. There is a decrease in catalyst deactivation rate due to increased gasification of deposited coke, faster J Chem Technol Biotechnol 2020; 95: [11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19]
