Abstract

The objective of this research was to study the ideas from the use of offense intended use by observing the behavior and using stuff in daily life to find the process of reforming the material from plastic waste to become a raw material and add value to the rest of the waste using as much as possible. The presentation and the dissemination of knowledge as a way to apply and inspire the further expand their creative thinking.
