Plastic recycling

As you know, today the issue of collecting and processing plastic waste is relevant for our country. Plastic production, which poses an environmental hazard, is on the rise in the country. Plastic is familiar to everyone with maximum disintegration. When plastic burns, it releases very dangerous gases. Therefore, we are not mistaken, although plastic processing is the most rational process for us. There are beautiful qualities in nature. He can cleanse himself of the waste he produces without our help. But in nature there are no quantities for self-cleaning from harmful waste and poisons of the national economy. Every day, people receive plastic boxes with mountain debris on the surface for up to 100 years, ordinary plastic bags – more than 200 years. Despite the special attention of the world community and environmental organizations, plastic pollution is becoming one of the most important environmental problems of our time.

It is noteworthy that in Kazakhstan in 2022, 483,755.5 tons of plastic waste were generated. In the same year, 90,079 tons of plastic, plastic, polyethylene and polyethylene terephthalate waste were sorted. This represents 18% of the volume of the resulting residue. At the same time, the volume of plastic waste sent for recycling amounted to 17,199 tons and amounted to 3% compared to the volume of waste generation, the volume of sorted plastic reached 19%. Exports of plastic waste in 2020 amounted to 5,962.5 tons. Since January 1, 2019, a ban on the disposal of plastic has been introduced at landfills in Kazakhstan. It is worth noting that last year the competent authorities concluded a memorandum on the introduction of paid use of plastic bags in the country. But there is still enough work in the country. Today, one of the important issues in the regulation of household waste is the inadequate development of interaction between government agencies for the collection and processing of waste, collectors, processors, and plastic waste generators.

Novelty: Plastic is a valuable raw material for the production of new products that can be recycled several times. In this regard, it is very important that plastic waste is collected and processed in large quantities. In recent years, the tradition of recycling has been very important. This proves that this is the best way to reduce the amount of waste that pollutes the environment. Although the consumer makes this task a little more difficult, more and more people are deciding to remodel certain elements of their homes. Although many seemed useless, they can be used to avoid abandonment. “The second life of plastic” is an interesting topic for practical application (this knowledge can improve the ecology of our planet).

Recycling plastic can be used not only to improve the environmental situation, but also for everyday needs. An old problem can only be solved with new solutions.

Project goal: “Processing plastic waste and producing tiles.

Expected results: benefits from plastic recycling environmental profit assessment. Thanks to these measures, environmental pollution is prevented. Plastic is the most common natural pollutant.

They lie underground for many years, since due to the properties of plastic it is an inflexible substance. So we decided to process the plastic. Main expected results of the project:

1. Contribution to the purity of nature;

2. Production of tiles with plastic processing;
