Summary

A review of plastic waste recycling practices in Vietnam identifies six key technical and regulatory considerations for safely incorporating recycled plastics into construction materials. Addressing these barriers is critical to scaling plastic recycling infrastructure and preventing mismanaged plastic waste from fragmenting into environmental microplastics.

In daily life, a lot of household waste, industrial waste and construction waste are discharged into the environment. In this situation, recycling and using waste in construction is considered one of the most important solutions because of the benefits that cannot be ignored. The trend of using recycled materials in construction is receiving a lot of attention. This trend is aimed at partially solving the huge waste situation in the world. Through the synthesis of theoretical and experimental studies, and with the aim of manufacturing certain building components using recycled plastic waste, this article summarizes fundamental information about plastic waste recycling in Vietnam and globally, and from there addresses six issues that require attention when recycling plastic waste in construction in Vietnam
