Abstract
In everyday life the consumption of plastic is steadily increasing, arising some concerns not only regarding the origin of these materials, which is generally fossil-based, but also for their end-of-life treatment. If a solution for the first aspect may be found in the utilization of biobased plastics, the other matter is still under investigation. Recycling plastic is a complex process, due to the broad range of polymers used, but also for the presence of contaminants and additives; for these reasons, these substrates are sent, in almost their totality, to landfills or burnt in incinerations, increasing the carbon dioxide content in the atmosphere and producing microplastics.
Nowadays some innovative treatments, aimed in improving a circular economy, have been proposed
