Abstract
Plastic waste has been one of the environmental impacts we have to espouse in 21St century. Even though people are more conscious of it and technology keeps advancing, global recycling rates are still persistent low. In this study, we look into the dominant factors that plastic waste recycling is affected by through the lens of an all-round approach that includes economic, environmental, and behavioral aspects. The previous literature emphasizes that the recycling systems require a mix of various drivers and are not dependent on only one factor. The objective of this survey is to point out and assess these elements and the way they influence good plastic waste management, especially in the case of developing countries that have to deal with the obstacles of proper execution. The paper signifies the integration of multiple dimensions, making use of which can contribute to increasing recycling efficiency and sustainability.
