Abstract The rising significance of the circular economy as a strategy for sustainable growth in the synthetic polymer sector has led researchers to suggest several blue ocean techniques to create new demand. Polyethylene terephthalate, a promising synthetic polymer used in textiles and packaging, contributes to unmanageable amounts of post-consumer trash. The ban on single-use plastics (SUP) forced researchers to find the best "circularity" path using the 5 R framework. By analyzing multiple recycling methods it is inferred hat recycling of the post-consumer polyester waste is the best option to achieve sustainability based on United Nation's Sustainable Development Programme.
