We have carried out a comprehensive study to evaluate and compare available recycling technologies for plastic waste, i.e. mechanical, solvent-based, chemical (depolymerization and thermal decomposition) and biological methods. We concluded that the solvent-based technology has a great and yet underestimated potential to play an important role in the future technology mix to recycle plastics, especially engineering plastics and (soft) PVC.
