Abstract
In today’s highly industrialized world, the production of various plastic materials has reached its peak, leading to the widespread issue known as plastic pollution. It is a long-lasting, large-scale concern, with plastic debris and particles found in numerous ecosystems. This pollution disrupts habitats and natural processes, decreasing ecosystems' ability to handle with climate change, and negatively impacts the food security and production, and well-being of millions of people. Additionally, the production, use, and disposal of plastics contribute to about 4% of global greenhouse gas emissions. Plastic waste contaminates food, water, and oceans, with 85% of marine debris being plastic. Since plastic does not biodegrade, 46% of it ends up in landfills, while 22% is improperly managed and becomes litter.
Thanks to modern technology, waste plastic can be utilized in various engineering applications, especially in the civil construction fields
