Open Loop Recycling of Plastic as a solution to Plastic Pollution in The Kenyan Coastline, A Case Study of Kwale County

The study findings recommend that going forward, appropriate recycling techniques with the lowest environmental impact at a high TRL level will necessitate a transition from the current quaternary and even secondary recycling methods to tertiary recycling approaches, which will have a positive environmental impact and contribute to CO2 reduction. Primary recycling techniques such as the use of solvent works particularly well for high-performance and technical plastics, and should be encouraged.
