“BIODEGRADACIÓN DE POLIETILENO DE BAJA DENSIDAD”

Abstract

This research project provides a brief identification of information from the last five years; focused mainly on processes applied to the degradation of low-density polyethylene for the reduction of plastic waste that act as environmental pollutants; applying and describing the main microorganisms used in the biotransformation of these materials, as well as exploring the state-of-the-art use of biocorrective treatments for LDPE biodegradation. It is also intended to publicize and identify the importance and new technologies related to the biodegradation of LDPE and its environmental impact.
