Abstract

Elowen Frost

This article provides an in-depth analysis of opinions surrounding the thermochemical recycling of plastic wastes for the production of alternative fuels. Thermochemical processes, such as pyrolysis and gasification, have gained attention as viable methods for converting plastic waste into valuable fuels, thereby mitigating environmental concerns associated with plastic disposal. This study synthesizes and evaluates diverse viewpoints from experts, policymakers, and stakeholders, focusing on the technical, economic, and environmental aspects of this innovative approach. The research emphasizes the potential of thermochemical recycling as a critical component in transitioning towards a more sustainable and circular economy.
