Environmental Impact
How much plastic is there in the world?
On a global level, the production of plastic is expected to increases at a rate of 30% by 2030 and 60% by 2050. This will bring the world total to around one billion tons
of plastics (sources: https://www.lifegate.it/plastica-iea-petrolio).What is the cost for the environment?
To recycle 1,000 kg of plastic post consumption you need::2,000 Kg of used plastic, 1000 l of water and 950 kWh of power. To recycle 1,000 kg of plastic from the post-industrial scraps you need::
1,000 Kg of plastic from industrial scraps, 80 l of water, and 220 kWh of power
…what does it all mean?
In the short term the plastic that is non-biodegradable becomes waste. It accumulates in landfills or is sent to incinerators – with scarce energy returns– generating enormous costs in terms of waste management and environmental costs.
Why recycle?
Industrial scraps are likely to go along the same path: recycling is the best strategy to reduce the environmental impact of managing plastic
