More and more people are recognizing the importance of caring for our environment in various aspects of daily life. Protecting the ecosystem involves not only waste segregation or using recyclable packaging but also avoiding food waste and supporting sustainable development. Therefore, the goal of this project is to develop the composition of a mixture and a method for producing edible, biodegradable disposable tableware from plant-based waste materials with health-promoting properties.
These innovative tableware products will feature good mechanical properties, high thermal stability, biodegradability, and will be suitable for human consumption.
The project involves using fruit and vegetable waste to create a mixture that will be used to produce edible, biodegradable disposable tableware with health-promoting properties. These innovative tableware items will be highly biodegradable, meaning they will decompose quickly when discarded as bio-waste. Additionally, they will not affect the taste of hot dishes and beverages served in them.
