Understanding de-inking in packaging plastic recycling: Bridging the gap in resource conservation and establishing average hazard quotient

Journal of Hazardous Materials
Achieving circularity in the plastic economy predominantly depends on sourcing higher quality recyclates. Packaging plastic poses a significant challenge as it is often not prioritised for collection or recycling initiatives. The presence of additives, such as printing ink, impedes the quality of recyclates. Considering the volume of packaging plastics
