This study reports the possibility of using biaxially oriented polyethylene terephthalate (BOPET) plastic packaging to convert mechanical energy into electrical energy. Electricity is generated due to the piezoelectricity of BOPET. Electricity generation depends on the mechanical deformation of the processing aids (inorganic crystals), which were found and identified by SEM and EDAX analyses as SiO2. BOPET, as an electron source, was assembled and tested as an energy conversion and self-powered mechanical stimuli sensor using potential applications in wearable electronics. When a pressure pulse after pendulum impact with a maximum stress of 926 kPa and an impact velocity of 2.1 m/s was applied, a voltage of 60 V was generated with short-circuit current and charge densities of 15 μAcm−2 and 138 nCm−2, respectively. Due to the orientation and stress-induced crystallization of polymer chains, BOPET films acquire very good mechanical properties, which are not lost during their primary usage as packaging materials and are beneficial for the durability of the sensors. The signals detected using BOPET sensors derived from pendulum impact and sieve analyses were also harvested for up to 80 cycles and up to 40 s with short-circuit voltages of 107 V and 95 V, respectively. In addition to their low price, the advantage of sensors made from BOPET plastic packaging waste lies in their chemical resistance and stability under exposure to oxygen, ultraviolet light, and moisture.

Growing industrialization and population deposit huge amounts of waste materials into nature every day. Environmental pollution is the biggest threat to life on earth, and one of the major polluters of nature is the throwaway plastic bottles made from polyethylene terephthalate (PET), a harmful fossil fuel/petroleum-based material. This review focuses on the recent development of recycling techniques of PET waste and their potential applications including fiber production, nanofibrous membrane, air filtering materials, water filtering materials, reinforced concrete formation, energy harvesting etc. In addition, the two most promising methods for recycling: chemical recycling and mechanical recycling are discussed. The most appropriate technologies and waste disposal procedures are suggested for energy harvesting based on the socio-economic aspects of the problem. The recent progress of this topic has been discussed. The prospect of these recycled bottles has been mentioned at the end of the article.

“…By the most elevated of the twentieth century, however, plastics had been viewed as tenacious polluters of the different ecological specialties, from Everest to the underside of the sea. Regardless of whether being confused with food by creatures, flooding low-lying regions by stopping up waste frameworks, or simply causing critical problem, plastics have drawn in expanding consideration as a large-scale contaminant [1].…”

Waste managing is a main worldwide problem that governments face each day. The excess of waste has been causing harmful impacts on our surroundings. Waste reduction need to be taken to the next stage. Electricity and waste management are big challenges that humans have faced. The intention of this paper is to recycle the wastage and use again and finally produce the energy from waste. These challenges in the future, Waste-to-energy (WTE) will be solution of waste and the production of energy. WTE idea gives economic and environmental profit and introduces a renewable energy source. Waste-to-energy is a renewable and clean source of energy.
