“…Furthermore, in a study involving the mixing of plastic waste and manufacturing sand to make plastic-manufacturing sand bricks at 1:1 and 1:2 ratios, the bricks were observed to have the highest compressive strength (55.91 MPa) at 1:2 ratio, marking an 88.59% higher strength than regular bricks (Table 1). The bricks also had lower water absorption than regular bricks [30].…”

The growing plastic pollution has prompted the quest to reduce plastic waste sustainably and control the mismanaged plastic stream. The valorization of plastic waste through reusing and recycling has received much attention as a sustainable solution to the global plastic problem, and the construction sector provides an important avenue for such an endeavor. This review aims to present the latest advances in the valorization of plastic waste as construction and building materials through the review of 60 relevant scholarly papers and a content analysis of the papers. In the construction sector, plastic waste can be valorized as additives or raw materials for brick production. As additives, plastic waste is added at different proportions (1%–70%) with other materials, including non-plastic waste, followed by curing to acquire the desired properties. Plastic waste is used as a raw material to contain strength-imparting materials. The former has been reported to have good strengths (5.15-55.91 MPa), chemical, and thermal resistance, whereas the latter may impart lower strengths (0.67-15.25 MPa). Plastic waste is also used as additives for road pavement, primarily as substitutes for concrete-making materials, and was observed to produce desirable strengths (0.95–35 MPa) at appropriate proportions (0.5–25%), indicating the importance of optimizing the plastic contents in the concrete. Plastic waste has been recycled as plastic lumber, plastic-based door panels and gates, as well as insulation materials. Plastic-based construction materials are generally lightweight, resistant to chemicals and heat, and have good sound insulation, but they may pose a fire safety concern.

“…Additionally, a complete investigation of cement mortars that contain combinations of plastic was done. The utilization pebble debris with polyethylene terephthalate (PET) construction linked was critically examined [23][24][25]. PET plastic bricks were utilized, according to another investigation examined development of fibers produced from waste materials being used to reinforce bricks provides a review on concrete mixture made with a variety of waste elements, including tyre waste, fly ash, blast furnace slag, fumed silica, and polymers agricultural garbage gave comprehensive analysis in usage of synthetic garbage component structures mixture of concrete [26].…”

<p>In concrete industry, the use of concrete solid wastes is becoming further common since it can minimize associated costs and environmental implications. The current research looks at how concrete performs when polypropylene (PP) plastic, produced from pollution garbage items, is used as a partially replacing for coarse aggregate (CA). The proportion of total PP (PPA) (0, 5, 10, 15, and 20%) as well as the water-cement ratio 0.45 of recycled household waste water, are the most important variables. Flow ability, hard porosity, maximum compressive strengths are all factors to consider, and economic feasibility are all discussed. The slump value grew when the proportion of PPA was raised, according to the findings. Compressive and cracking tensile strengths were increased in concrete containing 15% PPA. As a result, suggested to utilize more than 10% PPA in structural concrete, with either crushed stone or PP aggregate. The results showed that 15% is the best alternative to coarse gravel during terms of strength and durability, and hence PPA can be utilized as a partial replacement for coarse aggregate in concrete. To conduct studies to enhance the impact resistance of concrete by utilizing recycled water. Reducing the consumption of nonrenewable resources reducing greenhouse gas emissions and improving the strength and load capacity of industrial materials used in building research. Finally, employing non-biodegradable waste plastic resources to make green concrete will offer up new possibilities.</p>

“…The mechanical qualities of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) bottles filled with sand or soil make them appropriate for use in wall and slab construction [ 41 ]. Additionally, studies has been done on the use of waste from plastic with sand to generate additional construction material like bricks and blocks, which might be used to reduce plastic pollution [ [42] , [43] , [44] , [45] ]. Eco-bricks may also be created by filling plastic bottles with plastic food wrappers [ 46 ].…”
