Biopolymers and Biocomposites from Agro-waste for Packaging Applications by Naheed Saba, Paperback | Indigo Chapters

Biopolymers and Biocomposites from Agro-waste for Packaging Applicationslooks at the utilization of biocomposites and biopolymers for packaging applications. The book focuses on the development of affordable, innovative, sustainable packaging products made from biopolymers and biocomposites derived from agricultural waste/biomass and how they that result in improved shelf-life performance. In addition, it explores how these affordable packaging products can reduce food loss across the supply chain, the future direction of setting-up platforms for broader uses, and how these products can also contribute to minimizing waste-to-landfill problems. Focuses on the application and use of non-exploited cheap agricultural waste for food packaging applicationsContains information on the modeling and processing of biopolymers and biocomposites to predict thermal and mechanical behaviorFeatures a discussion of coatings on packaging products to enhance shelf life | Biopolymers and Biocomposites from Agro-waste for Packaging Applications by Naheed Saba, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
