Bioplastic is one of the good alternatives for traditional plastic. The aim of the present work was to synthesize the biodegradable of the material from banana peels and study the effect of the amount of plasticizer and binder on the biodegradability of material. Glycerine was used as plasticizer...
APPLICATION OF WASTE BANANA PEELS AS BIODEGRADABLE PLASTICdoi:10.31580/sps.v1i2.786Nur Athirah Huzaisham
Bananas peels as waste can be easily obtained locally. Recent works found in literature on extraction of plant fibers from dried banana peels which consumes energy as well as time. Instead, the direct processing of banana peel in the form of paste is easy to use and energy saving. The ...

Traditional plastic contributes significantly to environmental pollution due to their non-biodegradable nature, while banana peels, a common agro-industrial waste, are often discarded without proper utilization. The research envisages to develop an eco-friendly solution by creating biodegradable composite ...
Banana peels was very effective in regulating the fluid loss into the formation. They also found that gum Arabic powder and potato peel powder, could reduce the mud weight and both can be used as drilling fluid density modifier agents. Similarly, Nik Ab Lah et al. (2019) investigated the ...
Seedling pots made from biomaterials and banana peels suggested that the higher content of banana peels (70%) could accelerate the biodegradability of the pot [20]. Thus far, in terms of waste material utilization, no available studies have been conducted on developing biodegradable seedling pots ...
It is believed that half of all plastic products which are used in the food industry such as cutlery, plastic bags, coatings, and packaging material, are designed to be thrown away. Moreover, the world production of plastics grew from 1.5 million metric tons in 1950 to 359 million metric ...
