A team of third-year students at the HCM City University of Technology has developed lightweight bricks from plastic waste.
Lac Dan Hy, head of Octoplastic, the team of students, said the idea of making bricks from plastic waste came to them after they realized that 8 million tons of plastic waste were thrown into the sea each year.
Vietnam alone discharges 0.28-0.73 million tons of plastic waste, which accounts for 6 percent, the fourth largest volume in the world, according to the UN Environment Program.
