we established a management model for plastic waste disposal processes: First, we consider the source and application of each type plastic waste to classify it according to the chemical composition. The waste is then maximized by recycling and degradation which are the two main environmentally friendly treatment. At the same time, we considered the factors affecting the recycling rate and degradation rate and introduced a partial least square regression fitting method to determine the exact relationship between the recycling rate and degradation rate of various types of plastic waste and their respective influencing factors. The maximum amount of plastic waste treated is the sum of the amount of plastic waste recycled and degraded.
