“…Converting solid plastic waste into liquid fuel is an efficient and economical method of valorization ( Juwono et al, 2019 ), and the chemical treatment of plastic waste seems to be one of the most promising techniques. This solid-to-liquid conversion method of valorization is environmentally friendly and regarded as an efficient alternative to landfills or incineration.…”

The COVID-19 pandemic has affected not only human health and economies but also the environment due to the large volume of waste in the form of discarded personal protective equipment. The remarkable increase in the global usage of face masks, which mainly contain polypropylene, and improper waste management have led to a serious environmental challenge called microplastic pollution. Potential practices for waste management related to waste valorization of discarded face masks as the major type of waste during the COVID-19 pandemic are explored in this study. Recommendations based on governmental practices, situation of state facilities, and societal awareness and engagement applicable to emergency (including COVID-19 pandemic) and postpandemic scenarios are offered while considering potential solutions and available waste management practices in different countries during emergency conditions. However, multicriteria decision making for a country must determine the optimal solution for waste management on the basis of all affecting factors. Awareness of scientific, governments, and communities worldwide will successfully eradicate this important environmental issue.

“…The N2 adsorption and desorption measurement of the prepared catalyst were measured by Quantachrome Autosorb iQ gas sorption analyzer at 77.35K. Calculation of the surface area was evaluated using Brunauer-Emmet-Teller (BET) method, while pore size distribution was estimated from the branch of the isotherm using Barret-Joyner-Halenda (BJH) method [11].…”

In the present study, the catalytic cracking process of polystyrene (PS) plastic waste and biodiesel of candlenut oil was carried out using Si/Al-ceramic catalyst with a mass ratio of 7:3 at 300 °C. This study aimed to investigate the effect of reaction time on the distribution of hydrocarbon fuel fractions produced. They are characterized by XRD, SEM-EDX, FTIR, and N2 gas adsorption-desorption. The products components of PS catalytic cracking were analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectroscopy (GC-MS). The liquid fuel obtained was mixed with commercial fuel, Premium RON 88, and methyl tertiary butyl ether (MTBE) additive to determine its physicochemical properties and performance in a generator engine with gasoline-based fuel. The result showed that an increase in reaction time from 60 minutes to 120 minutes of PS cracking over Si/Al-Ceramic catalyst leads to the enrichment of long-chain hydrocarbon fraction (> C12) by 25.61% which is attributed to the formation of styrene dimer. The fuel has thermal efficiency of 26.49% with density of 0.7405 g/cm3, flashpoint of < -50 °C, calorific value of 9642.42 kcal/kg, and octane number of 92.2. These characteristics are in accordance with SNI 06-3506-1994 standard. Therefore, liquid fuel from catalytic cracking of polystyrene plastic wastes can be used as a potential alternative fuel in the gasoline range.

“…The thermochemical process of pyrolysis involves the decomposition of macromolecules in synthetic and organic plastics. It appears to be one of the most promising strategies for converting plastics to liquid fuels ( Juwono et al, 2019 ). This solid-to-liquid conversion method exhibits a better efficiency when compared to other conventional procedures such as landfills and incineration.…”
