| dc.description.abstract | In this article, we propose, design and implement a sustainable process technology that converts plastic waste into useful products. The nature of the raw material for our process (plastic waste) make our proposed technology serve a dual purpose of not only taking care of the solid waste management problem, but also producing cheaper, safer and more easily accessible products for the rural communities. The envisaged outcomes of our research outputs are an improvement in the general lifestyle of our people living in less advantaged communities as well as an opportunity for employment creation of the local youth if our process is scaled up into an industrial plant. | en_US |
