Abstract
The importance of polymeric materials in modern life can hardly be overestimated. The annual growth of their production and consumption is one of the main directions of the development of the world economy. At the same time, the problem of recycling polymer waste after the end of the use of products made on their basis arises (according to various sources, only 10-15% of all produced polymers are used for the manufacture of containers). Fully biodegradable plastics are practically non-existent today. Any of the proposed solutions has its own advantages and disadvantages, which require commensuration with consumer characteristics, price, production costs. Independent examinations show that a truly complete degradation of polymers is possible only if they are made from plant materials. The article discusses the rationale for the feasibility of building a plant for the production of biodegradable materials based on plant materials in the Tyumen region.
