| Abstract | The commercial use of polymers has expanded considerably in recent decades, resulting in exponential expansion in the polymer production business. As a result, polymer recycling is critical to the circular economy's sustainability. Governments and organizations are making significant efforts to reduce the carbon footprint generated by the use of synthetic polymers. Organizations such as the United Nations routinely launch initiatives worldwide to educate people and limit plastic manufacture. UNEP aims to reduce plastic output by 80% by 2040 by establishing a circular economy between the production and use of plastic. The manufacturing industry likewise takes huge steps to lessen its reliance on plastic. The industry is developing new ways and technologies to recycle these polymers sustainably. This paper studies and examines waste thermoplastic and thermoset material recycling initiatives made by other researchers. Various forms of recycling, primary, secondary, thermal, chemical, and biological are explored along with the sustainability of that particular recycling technique. |
