Plastic and polymer industry by regionproduction, consumption and waste management in the African continent /[electronic resource] :by Ololade Olatunji. - Singapore :Springer Nature Singapore :2022. - xii, 212 p. :ill. (some col.), digital ;24 cm.

Introduction -- Polymers in early trade and industry in Africa -- Production and processing techniques of some polymeric materials in the Early trade and industry of Africa -- Plastics and polymers consumption in Africa today -- Plastic bans in Africa -- Plastic Recycling in Africa -- Biopolymers production and applications -- Plastic and polymer Manufacturing and processing in Africa today -- Chemical recycling and energy recovery from plastics and other polymers in Africa -- Plastic and polymer waste management across Africa -- Microplastics: Emerging issues in Emerging Urbanisation -- Future Outlook -- Conclusions and recommendations.

This book addresses the need for a technical guided thought on production, consumption, and waste management of plastic and polymers in the African continent. Issues such as resource availability, processing technologies, plastic policies, and much more are covered in the book. While Africa is made up of several different countries which might be different from each other in many ways, these countries within the African continent have some commonalities such as region, some shared history, resources, and some shared policies through organizations such as the African Union, African Free trade Zone, and ECOWAS. With a population of over a billion, the African continent has become an attractive market for various businesses. Several publications in recent years have pushed for the advancement of the African continent toward increased manufacturing as a road to development. This inevitably includes the plastics and other polymers industry. Careful consideration must be taken to ensure that this growth will focus on more sustainable and greener manufacturing; otherwise, this anticipated growth in the plastics and polymer industry will only spell increased pollution and worsening of the environment.
