Abstract

Plastics are widely used in modern life but pose significant environmental challenges. Petrochemical plastics, made from fossil fuels, contribute to pollution, resource depletion, and greenhouse gas emissions, while also being difficult to recycle and nonbiodegradable. Bio-based plastics, derived from renewable resources, offer an alternative with potential environmental benefits. They perform better in terms of reducing non-renewable energy use and emissions but have drawbacks, such as the environmental impact of raw material production. These plastics also face challenges in waste management and sustainability. Improving bio-based plastics through better design, raw material sourcing, and end-of-life strategies can enhance their environmental performance.
可生物降解有机塑料的分析与发展:化学性质与可持续环境应用的研究
塑料在现代生活中广泛使用,但也带来了重大的环境挑战。石化塑料是由化石燃料制成的,会造成污染、资源枯竭和温室气体排放,同时也难以回收和不可生物降解。从可再生资源中提取的生物基塑料提供了一种具有潜在环境效益的替代品。它们在减少不可再生能源的使用和排放方面表现更好,但也有缺点,例如原材料生产对环境的影响。这些塑料还面临着废物管理和可持续性方面的挑战。通过更好的设计、原材料采购和报废策略来改进生物基塑料,可以提高它们的环保性能。
