INTRODUCTION
The rapid rate of urbanization and development has led to increase in consumption of plastic products vis-à-vis plastic
waste generation. It is a fact that plastics waste constitutes a significant portion of the total municipal solid waste
(MSW) generated in India.
India generates more than 25,000 tones of plastic waste every day, 40 per cent of which remains uncollected and
littered in the environment. As per the study conducted by Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB) in 60 major cities of
India, it has been observed that around 4059 T/day of plastic waste is generated from these cities in 2010-12. The
fraction of plastic waste in total Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) varies from 3.10% (Chandigarh) to 12.47% (Surat).
Average plastic waste generation is around 6.92% of MSW.
Also, as per the results of the study, out of total plastic waste, around 94% waste comprises of thermoplastic content,
which is recyclable such as PET, LDPE, HDPE, PVC, etc. and remaining 6% belongs to the family of thermoset and other
categories of plastics such as sheet molding compound (SMC), fiber reinforced plastic (FRP), multi-layered, thermocol
etc., which is non-recyclable.

ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES OF PLASTIC WASTE
Littering of plastic waste makes land infertile, choke the drains, on ingestion by cattle cause death.
Accumulation of non-recyclable plastic waste such as multilayered laminated packaging, thermoset plastic like SMC, FRP, etc.
Open burning of plastic waste, especially thermoset plastic waste is major health & environmental issue, as it emits toxic gases
Leaching impact on soil, underground water etc. due to improper dumping of plastic waste (contain metals & phthalates)
Running of unregistered plastic manufacturing and recycling industries in residential areas.
