The implementation of microbes in plastic biodegradation

Abstract

Most microorganisms are necessary for the decomposition of plastics and the production of bioplastics. It takes plastic materials more than a thousand years to degrade significantly. To degrade solid waste, microorganisms for the degradation of plastics should be configured meticulously. In the manufacture of equipment, a variety of plastic polymers are utilised, focusing on how they will be used. This article reviews about a detailed summary of the microbes that degrade several forms of plastics including polyethylene, polypropylene, polystyrene, polyurethane, polyethylene terephthalate, and polyvinyl chloride also the harmful effects of plastics on humanity.
