Circular economy model for reuse of plastic in eco-efficient production of building materials

Plastic waste is causing severe environmental impact to the terrestrial and marine ecosystem. Establish the influence of the circular economy model for the incorporation of plastic waste in the production of raw materials (blocks or bricks) for the construction sector. Descriptive, quali-quantitative, field study, using survey and interview. The findings obtained showed that it is possible to use recycled plastic waste products in the manufacture of construction materials, due to the quality requirements and the lower costs generated by this eco-efficient option, adjusted to the circular economy model, in the construction sector. The use of construction materials with recycled plastic waste content is associated with the circular economy model, promoting the economic reactivation of the construction sector and the economic and social development of the nation.
