Abstract
Waste recycling is a livelihood for the marginalized society in the developing economies and it is not surprising to find recycling of municipal solid waste (MSW) been carried out. Plastic waste is a waste type in MSW yet a number of challenges still exist in managing this waste type. A literature review was conducted to identify the key drivers to sustainable development of post-consumer packaging plastic waste recycling systems in developed and developing economies. A number of articles focusing on drivers or factors influencing sustainable management and recycling of solid waste and municipal solid waste were reviewed. Further analysis of the results indicated a number of drivers from the economic, environmental and social aspect as drivers to sustainable development of recycling systems for post-consumer packaging plastic solid waste.
