Plastic production has grown dramatically over the years. Microplastics (MPs) are formed
from the fragmentation of larger plastic debris by combining chemical, physical, and …

Due to its resistance to natural degradation and decomposition, plastic debris perseveres in
the environment for centuries. As a lucrative material for packing industries and consumer …

This study demonstrates an open-loop recycling process of a specific post-consumer plastic
waste stream. The targeted input waste material was defined as high-density polyethylene …

Plastic waste is the most challenging type of waste because its generation rate
(consumption rate) is high, and the current recycling rate is low. The increase in the …

Long-term product improvement requires detailed analysis that includes information from the
entire product life cycle. Life cycle assessment according to the standards ISO 14040 and …

The present work demonstrates a novel strategy of synthesizing iron-biochar (Fe@ BC SB)
composite made with the waste iron bottle cap and sugar cane bagasse for implementation …

In this research, the abundance and physical and chemical characteristics of microplastics
(MPs) in coastal sediments from three beaches of Puerto Vallarta in Mexico were …

The prediction of the terminal velocity of a single spherical particle is essential to realize
mathematical modeling useful for the design and adjustment of separators used in …

Recycling is the collection and conversion process of waste materials into second raw
materials. It is crucial in the waste management hierarchy and also in sustainability. In fact …
