Abstract

In the era of industrialization and modernization, pollution caused by industrial wastes has become one of the biggest challenges most countries are facing. Wastes such as plastics, ceramics, paper, metals, composite, etc. are the predominant detriments to the environment. Although composite materials account for just a small proportion in the waste stream, they are difficult to process and possess a great number of potential risks to the environment. At the same time, recycling and recovering composite waste materials are more challenging than other easy-to-handle waste materials. This paper will first present an overview of the methods used to recycle composite wastes, then it will further orientate recycling technologies suitable for Vietnam.
