· Plastic waste recycling is an advanced industrial process that emits CO 2 as well, mostly due to the energy consumed. Based on Benner et al. (2007), we assume that recycling 0.75 t of plastic waste yields 0.2 t CO 2. In addition, the transport of plastic waste causes some CO 2 emissions, although this is relatively limited.

· Plastic waste is one of the biggest problems of our time. Globally, almost 80 million tons of plastic packaging waste is generated every year. Currently, only about ten percent of the resources are recovered through recycling. The rest is incinerated, landfilled or released leaks into the environment in an uncontrolled manner.
· A report from the Ellen MacArthur Foundation a couple of years ago found that 95 percent of the value of plastic packaging material alone, worth $80 to $120 billion annually, is lost to the economy. In other words, there’s money to be made for companies that can figure out better, more economical ways to recycle plastic or create it from

· schemes and sales methods for plastic waste. For example, Germany’s competitive system, with several collection schemes and collecting companies, produces a relatively high proportion of contaminated waste. In Italy, on the other hand, Corepla has a monopoly and invests more in an efficient sorting process, reducing contamination levels.
· NIR spectra of samples are generated according to vibration of C H, O H and N H bonds in polymer materials. The basis for quantitative analysis of NIR spectra is Beer-Lambert law. The Beer-Lambert law states that absorbance (A) is directly proportional to the thickness of the sample. (1) A = lg I 0 I 1 = lg 1 T = K l c I 0 is the intensity of light incident to the sample, I 1 is the intensity

Out of the 60% of recycled plastic7
· EU waste policy aims to contribute to the circular economy by extracting high-quality resources from waste as much as possible. The European Green Deal aims to promote growth by transitioning to a modern, resource-efficient and competitive economy. As part of this transition, several EU waste laws will be reviewed.
THE IMPACT OF RECYCLING IN PRESERVING THE ENVIRONMENT CHAPTER ONE INTRODUCTION 1.1Background of the study The generation and disposal of waste is an intrinsic part of any developing or industrial society. Waste, both from domestic and commercial sources has grown significantly in Nigeria over the past decade. Every time a er shops at the

· The Italian mode How Italy leads the way in Europe in separate waste collection systems. In Italy, food waste recycling is fashionable. David Burrows reports from Milan where a new collection system has resulted in some impressive take-up figures and low contamination rates. Italy hasn’t got the best reputation when it comes to waste.
· In 2016, Illinois Sustainable Technology Center researchers B.K.
