Pages 729-736 | Published online: 30 Jun 2007
 

Abstract

Recycling of polystyrene can be done by mechanical, chemical, and thermal methods. High impact polystyrene is a promising material for mechanical recycling since its properties are not extremely affected even after multiple processing of upto nine cycles. Production of liquid products and gaseous products are highly dependent on the reaction condition. The catalysts used are highly selective for the production of liquid as well as gaseous products. In this article we have reviewed the various types of methods followed so far for recycling of polystyrene.
