Plastics Recycling as a Part of Circular Economy

This article describes the plastics recycling assessment based on a practical selection of waste plastic samples from a municipality in the Czech Republic. The assessment included classification, analysis of the composition and experimental investigation of the recyclability of the samples. The recy...
