Awasthi, A. et al. (2017) Plastics are used in more number of
applications in worldwide and it becomes an essential part of our
daily life. In cities and villages, people use the plastics in buying
vegetables as a carry bag, drinking water bottle, use of plastic
furniture in home, plastic objects in the kitchen, plastic drums in
packing and storage of the different chemicals for industrial use, use
of plastic utensils in home and many more uses. After usage of
plastics it will become part of waste garbage and create pollution due
to presence of toxic chemicals and it will spread diseases and give
birth to uncontrolled issues in social society. In the current
scenario, consumption of plastic waste increasing day by day and it is
very difficult to manage the plastic waste. Such examples are
recycling, landfill, incineration, gasification, and hydrogenation.
Grigore, M. (2017) Thermoplastic polymers are inexpensive,
lightweight and durable which make them suitable to be molded into a
variety of products that can find use in a wide range of applications.
In the last 60 years, the production of plastics has increased
significantly causing a big problem in the world. This review aims to
provide an updated survey of the main recycled polymers and the
recycle methods of thermoplastic polymers. Also, the main applications
of thermoplastic polymers based on categorization by the Society of
the Plastic Industry (SPI) and the new perspectives with reference to
these polymers are presented. This study reveals that the recycling
process is the best technique to treat waste polymer products in

comparison with the old-style methods (combustion of waste polymers or
burying underground) which lead to negative influences on the
environment via the formation of dust, fumes and toxic gases.
Hopewell, J. (2009) Plastics are inexpensive, lightweight and
durable materials, which can readily be moulded into a variety of
products that find use in a wide range of applications. As a
consequence, the production of plastics has increased markedly over
the last 60 years. However, current levels of their usage and disposal
generate several environmental problems. Recycling is one of the most
important actions currently available to reduce these impacts and
represents one of the most dynamic areas in the plastics industry
today. Recycling provides opportunities to reduce oil usage, carbon
dioxide emissions and the quantities of waste requiring disposal.
Review of Related Literature
Alama, R. (2018) Engineer Winchester Lemen and his company,
Winder Recycling Company with its plant in Sasa processes around 90
tons of plastic trash and transforms them using Lemen’s invention- a
thermal heating technology into school chairs, benches, picnic tables
and lounge chairs. Lemen said the business started in 2001 where he
saw the need to recycle plastics and invented a technology to help in
recycling. “This invention is a product of Philippine ingenuity, I
conceptualized it to start reducing the number of plastic wastes in
our country. This was my idea to help the country,” Lemen said. A
single school chair is made up of 30 kilos of plastic or the
equivalent of 10,000 candy wrappers or equal to 2,181 sando bags or

300 bottles of mineral water, these are common plastic wastes being
dumped in landfills or in canals and waterways. “We are also saving a
three-year old tree from being cut which could have been used to
create a chair,” Lemen said. A native of Marikina, Lemen moved to
Davao when he married a Dabawenya. He set up the Envirotech Waste
Reycling Inc. Together with a partner, he put up the Winder Recycling
Inc. with a 4,000 square meter factory in Sasa near the Port of Davao.
The wastes come from Davao City and nearby towns like in Tagum, Padada
and Sulop. Winder together with Junior Chamber International (JCI)
Davaoeña Dabadaba chapter is conducting a plastic wastes drive where
they aim to gather collected plastic wastes such as sando bags,
plastic containers, bottles, sachets, wrappers and food packaging.
