Micro
Plastics
and the recycling of plastics .
by Manojkumar C
MICRO PLASTIC
Microplastics are fragments of any
type of plastic less than 5 mm in
length, according to the U.S.
National Oceanic and Atmospheric
Administration and the European
Chemicals Agency.
Classification of Micro Plastics
01. Primary MicroPlastics
They already are smaller in and are
produced for external human use
02. Secondary Microplastic
They occur as a result of the breakdown of
large plastic debris .
WHO STUDY :
Analysis of 259 bottles from 19 locations in nine countries across 11 different brands found
an average of 325 plastic particles for every litre of water being sold .
1.
The most common type of plastic fragment found was polypropylene - the same type of
plastic used to bottle caps .
2.
Usage of plastic in various forms
Types of plasstics
1.Micro plastics
2.Macro plastics
3.Mega plastics.
WHY RECYCLING?
ADVANTAGES
1.Waste reduction
2.Conservation of energy
3.Save money
4.Create new jobs
5.Generate revenues
6. Provides a sustainable source of
raw materials to industries
DISADVANTAGES
1.Impossible to recycle at 100% .
2. Recycling materials might be in
contact with radioactive materials
3.Recycling requires plastics to be
of nearly identical composition to
mix efficiently
4.widespread use of dyes ,fillers,
and other additives in plastics
makes recycling difficult .
thank you
