Just burn it. It can burn and gives off bout the same energy as the oil it was made of.
It can be added to coal plants in a fractional procent and most plastics will burn clean at such temps.

This desu. Europe has many waste incineration facilities that generate significant amounts of power AND reduced landfill use / groundwater contamination AND reduces the proliferation of microplastics AND makes climate cultists bitch and cry for some reason.
Burn all the plastic.
Release all the carbon back into the cycle.
Free the trapped biomass.

Yup, always has been, since it increases the amount of micro-plastics in the environment.
Plastics should be buried so they degrade over time.

Didn't we get bacteria that evolved to break down nylon a bit ago?
Maybe we could do something with them, see if we can get other plastic enzymes
