The journal retracts the article “A Critical Review on Recycling Composite Waste Using Pyrolysis for Sustainable Development” Energies 2021, 14(18), 5748 [1] cited above.

Following the publication of [1], concerns were brought to the attention of the publisher regarding the reproduction of unattributed content and significant overlap with a previously published paper [2]. The unattributed content includes Figures 3 and 4 [1], which are almost identical to Figures 3 and 5 in [2], and a significant dispersed overlap in Sections 1, 2, and 3 of [1] to the previously published paper [2].

Therefore, the Editorial Office and the Editor-in-Chief have taken the decision to retract the paper [1]. We apologize to the readers of Energies and to the authors of the previous works.
