A publisher based in the United Kingdom is offering a guidebook entitled “Recycling of PVC and Mixed Plastic Waste.”
Publishing firm Research and Markets Ltd. says its book “has been compiled from contributions from an array of scientists from several countries who are playing a leading role in plastic recycling. They offer practical solutions to many difficult problems in this field.”
The book’s 11 chapters cover topics including thermal stabilization of PVC; successful commercial operations developed by VEKA in Germany for PVC windows and another developed by Solvay in Belgium that recycles PVC bottles and pipes; technology of processing mixed plastic scrap; and the effect of contamination and UV stability on recycled polymers.
“Anyone involved in production of materials from virgin polymers who is concerned with their recyclability should read this book,” states Research and Markets Ltd. “The ideas and data presented will help the process of planning future recycling efforts and help to bring the recycling process from a costly nuisance to a profitable industry,” the group remarks in its news release announcing the availability of the book.
