Tek Proseste Kompaund Elde Edebilen Tandem Bir Sistemle Yapılan Termoplastik Geri Dönüşümünün Çevreye ve Dünyaya Faydaları

Abstract

The manufacture of polymers has experienced significant growth since the 1900s due to their favorable attributes such as ease of manufacturing, cost-effectiveness, desirable chemical and physical qualities, as well as their lightweight nature. The escalating utilization of plastic has begun to inflict damage upon the environment, organisms, and human well-being, hence giving rise to challenges pertaining to recycling and waste management. In the process of recycling, it is necessary to subject thermoplastics to two cycles of melting in order to get the correct material characteristics. As a result of the restricted number of mechanical recycling cycles for plastics, thermoplastics have an accelerated rate of expiration, double the usual timeframe. In the proposed tandem recycling process, a single melting operation can subject the trash that has already undergone recycling to a second round of recycling. By using this approach, the potential for enhancing the reusability of thermoplastic waste is heightened. The absence of an additional heating process results in energy savings, leading to a notable reduction in expenses.
