Summary

This review examines innovations in marine plastic waste management including resource recovery, plastics-to-value conversion, co-processing, and dumpsite recovery approaches, presenting business case studies from developed and developing countries and discussing future trends such as biodegradable plastics and product designs optimised for recycling and upcycling.

Marine Plastics Abatement Volume 2 focusses on abatement strategies and up-to-date technological innovations against marine plastic pollution such as resource recovery, plastics-to-values, co-processing, dumpsite recovery, etc. With an understanding of technological solutions and proper management practices, this volume suggests ways to develop businesses from plastic wastes with several cases from developed and developing countries. Furthermore, business case studies are presented along with recent scientific information, and practical exercises together with discussions on future trends such as introduction of biodegradable, or decomposable plastics; product designs for recycling/upcycling; etc.ISBN: 9781789063431 (print)ISBN: 9781789063448 (eBook)ISBN: 9781789063448 (ePUB)
