the tanzania bureau of standards is the statutory national standards body for tanzania, established under the act.no.3 of 1975, amended by act.no.2 of 2009. this draft tanzania standard is being prepared by solid waste technical committee, under the supervision of the environmental management divisional standards committee (emdc).
tanzania national guidance for plastic pollution hotspotting,95% of the plastic waste is mismanaged and can potentially leak to the oceans, rivers and lakes of tanzania. 29 thousand tonnes of plastic leaked to ocean, rivers and lakes in 2018 in tanzania. as shown in figure 1 below, the most critical polymers found in tanzania were pet, polypropylene, high-density- and low-density polyethylene.

the release, degradation, and distribution of pvc,the rate of plasticizer release from pvc and its degradation were influenced by the initial plasticizer content, environmental conditions (abiotic/biotic), and other physicochemical properties. these results demonstrated that microbial communities can biodegrade phthalates in the environment.
emerging plasticizers and human exposure. human exposure to plasticizers occurs through a variety of pathways, including ingestion, inhalation, and dermal absorption. plasticizers are ubiquitous in consumer products such as food packaging, toys, and medical devices, making human exposure difficult to avoid.

detection and chemical composition of polysynthetic plastic,automatic surface chemical mapping and reference to an infrared library data base was used to identify the compositional spectra of plastics particles. results of this study revealed that microplastics were widely distributed along the coasts with a total abundance composed of 34.36±4.6 particles/kg. higher concentrations founded
- How much plastic waste is produced in Tanzania?
- Per capita plastic waste generation is around 5.6 kg/year which is lower than the world average of 29 kg/year. It is estimated that only 40% of the plastic waste is collected. 4% of the plastic waste is collected for recycling. Because there are no sanitary landfill and incineration facilities, there is no proper disposal of waste in Tanzania.
- Why is plastic and microplastic pollution a problem in Tanzania?
- Due to the human pressures and subsequent increase in urbanization along the coast and in proximity to freshwater bodies, coupled with ineffective waste management and inadequate awareness, the potential for plastic and microplastic pollution in Tanzanian aquatic environment is great.
- What is the value of recycled plastics for waste pickers in Tanzania?
- Value of recycled plastics for waste pickers seems higher than in some other African countries. Due to the absence of sanitary landfills and incinerators, there is no proper disposal of waste in Tanzania. Burning of waste is a widespread practice in Tanzania. Plastic recycling is not well understood and could not be properly assessed.
- How can we improve plastic consumption in Tanzania?
- Conduct waste generation characterisation studies at household level in additional cities and rural areas. Identify touristic hubs in the country and carry out surveys to better understand plastic consumption patterns of tourists. The average collection rate in Tanzania is 40%.
- Is there plastic debris in Tanzania's freshwaters?
- Based on literature search, there are only two studies that have attempted to document the presence of plastic debris in Tanzania freshwaters (Ngupula et al. 2014, Biginagwa et al. 2016), and only one specifically focused on microplastics (Biginagwa et al. 2016).
- Does Tanzania have microplastics?
- Although, Tanzania has vast coastlines and world’s largest freshwater lakes, the extent of microplastics presence in the aquatic environment remains largely unreported. Data from volunteer beach cleanups in Dar es Salaam areas show that typically more than 70% of anthropogenic litter along the beaches is comprised of plastics.
