Pyrolysis of Polyvinyl Chloride, Polypropylene, and Polystyrene: Current Research and Future Outlook
Abstrak
Plastic waste has increased worldwide due to the steady rise in plastic consumption. Several strategies were developed to mitigate plastic waste. Among these methods, pyrolysis is a promising technology for converting plastic waste into valuable products. This paper discusses the latest advancements in the pyrolysis of three common types of plastic waste: polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polypropylene (PP), and polystyrene (PS). The challenges associated with the pyrolysis of these plastics are highlighted, and an outlook on the future of research on pyrolysis is given. Overall, this review provides valuable insights into the current state of research on the pyrolysis of PVC, PP, and PS. This has implications for advancing pyrolysis technology to contribute to a more sustainable and circular economy.
