O projektu

Plastics is an important class of materials, bringing many social and economic benefits. Global production of plastics reached 380Mt in 2018 (a 20-fold increase since the 1960s) and its further growth is expected. Due to the long decomposition time and low recycling rates (<30%), large quantities of plastics are accumulated in the natural environments and landfills, overuse of fossil feedstocks, as well as damage to the environment, human health and economic loss. The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted the entire world, leaving significant consequences. One such serious problem is the pollution caused by plastic waste - face masks and packaging waste. The idea of the project is to minimise the mentioned negative impacts and maximise the economic value of plastics use via economically and environmentally optimal increase of the circularity and the entire plastics value chains. The degrees of freedom to exploit include Industrial Symbiosis, material and chemical recycling. The criterion of Plastic Waste Footprint will be developed for the evaluation of the plastic materials impact.
