Title Utilizing plastic waste in the building and construction industry: A pathway towards the circular economy
Year 2023
Published
Abstract The study attempts to investigate the economic and environmental feasibility of linking the plastic waste recycling industry with the construction sector as a circular economy model (CE), particularly for Egypt. The result figured out that adopting the CE approach has several substantial environmental and economic benefits. It can turn plastic waste into eco-friendly and affordable building materials besides aligning with sustainable development goals (SDGs). The study contributes to raising local awareness about the potential of waste recycling. Moreover, promoting local stakeholders to widely apply the CE model in the construction and recycling plastic waste industry for a better sustainable environment
