@article{Mikulionok_2021, title={A STATE OF ART AND PROSPECTS OF PLASTIC SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT}, url={https://etars-journal.org/index.php/journal/article/view/282}, DOI={10.33070/etars.2.2021.05}, abstractNote={<p>Basic data on the volume and structure of solid waste in the world and Ukraine are presented. The need to improve the ways of handling plastic solid waste as one of the most dangerous for the environment and promising from the point of view of using their properties is shown. A detailed classification of methods for handling plastic solid waste is proposed and a critical analysis of each of them is given. Particular attention is paid to the methods of disposal of plastic solid waste, in particular, recycling, which makes it possible to effectively use secondary plastic raw materials directly for their intended purpose. The features of physical, chemical, biological and combined processing methods are also considered, in particular combustion, gasification, pyrolysis, plasma decomposition of plastic solid waste, as well as their decomposition under the influence of sunlight and microorganisms. The main ways of solving the problem of plastic solid waste in Ukraine are proposed. <em>Bibl</em><em>. 83, </em><em>Fig</em><em>. 3, </em><em>Tab</em><em>. 3.</em></p&gt;}, number={2}, journal={Energy Technologies & Resource Saving}, author={Mikulionok, I.O.}, year={2021}, month={Jun.}, pages={52-73} }
