Due to the 'forever' degrading nature of plastic waste, waste management is often complicated. The applications are ubiquitous and inevitable in many scenarios. Current global plastics production ca. 3.5 MMT per year, with current trend, will reach 25,000 by 2040. However, rapid growth manufacture material's inherent resulted accumulation a vast amount garbage. recycling rate <10 %, while large volumes discarded cause environmental ecological problems. Recycling rates for vary widely region type plastic. In some developed countries, around 20-30 developing nations, it much lower. These statistics highlight magnitude problem urgent need comprehensive strategies manage more effectively reduce its impact on environment. This review critically analyses past studies essential efficient techniques turning trash into treasure. Additionally, an attempt has been made provide understanding upcycling process, 3Rs policy, life-cycle assessment (LCA) conversion. advocates pyrolysis as one most promising methods valuable chemicals. addition, can be severely impacted due uncontrollable events, such Covid 19 pandemic. chemical certainly bring value end-of-life LCA analysis indicated there still huge scope innovation area compared mechanical recycling. formulation policies heightened public participation could play pivotal role reducing repercussions facilitating shift towards sustainable future.
