| book description |

Polymer Circularity in Sustainable Energy offers a comprehensive overview of the recycling and reuse of polymers in specific energy technologies. The book discusses the fundamental aspects of polymer chemistry, global challenges in polymer waste management, regulatory frameworks for polymer recycling, and technological advances in polymer sorting and separation. The initial chapters explore different methods of polymer reuse, including mechanical and chemical recycling, as well as chemical depolymerization for electroactive polymers. Sections then examine the applications of recycled polymers such as polyurethanes, polyvinylidene fluoride, and other polymers in specific energy technologies, including photovoltaics, fuel cells, space energy systems, and battery technologies. The book also discusses the integration of artificial intelligence in polymer recycling for energy solutions and presents case studies on polymer recycling projects in the energy sector. It further addresses the challenges and opportunities in scaling up polymer recycling infrastructure. It will serve as a valuable reference for researchers and scientists in polymer science and engineering, as well as industry professionals in renewable energy and waste management who are interested on optimizing the use of polymers while minimizing waste generation in the energy industry.
