Miêu tả
Tóm tắt:This research was carried out to create sustainable alternatives in the production of biopolymers for industrial use. The peels of fruits such as orange (Citrus x sinensis), apple (Malus domestica) and banana (Musa x paradisiaca L.) contain starch and the extraction process was used to obtain a thermoplastic starch that can be molded as a biodegradable film and blended as a biocomposite. The sustainable management of fruit peel waste has become a priority due to the increase in its production worldwide, estimated at around 359 million tons per year. The aim is to reduce pollution from petrochemical plastics, which have high greenhouse gas emissions and cause direct damage to biodiversity. Socioeconomic and cultural factors have their origin in the excessive use of plastics due to the dynamics of population growth, which increases demand in parallel to food production.
