Purpose and description of the content of education:
Głównym celem modułu Recykling tworzyw sztucznych jest zapoznanie studentów z podstawowymi grupami tworzyw sztucznych i ich właściwościami, metodami badania i identyfikacji. Omówione zostaną podstawowe technologie produkcji tworzyw sztucznych ich recyklingu, zasady gospodarki odpadami. Ponadto studenci poznają wpływ zużycia energii i surowców, w procesach gromadzenia poużytkowych wyrobów na emisję zanieczyszczeń do środowiska i koszty procesów recyklingu.
