Circular Plastics Economy: A Multidisciplinary Perspective provides an understanding of the complex issues surrounding plastic waste management, including environmental challenges, risks associated with microplastic contamination, and the detection of micro- and nano-plastics. The book explores conventional and emerging technological solutions for plastic waste management, such as reusing, recycling, pyrolysis, and heterogeneous catalysis while also considering alternative approaches like biochar and microbe-based degradation that foster a holistic perspective on the transition towards a circular plastics economy.With its multidisciplinary approach, this book provides an analysis of the challenges and opportunities associated with circular plastics economy, guiding the development of sustainable solutions on a global scale. By addressing these diverse perspectives, this book offers a guide for researchers and professionals interested in tackling the challenges of plastic waste to achieve a sustainable and circular approach to managing plastic waste.Addresses circular economy solutions by providing a state-of-the-art knowledge on key scientific interventions for transitioning towards a circular plastics economyProvides easy access to state-of-the-art findings and perspectives on circular economy and plastics from multiple scientific disciplinesHighlights environmental issues due to improper plastic waste managementFocuses on various technological interventions (both conventional and emerging) throughout the lifecycle of plastics to help achieve circularity
