About
Bioplastics are gaining traction as an eco-friendly alternative to conventional plastics, and agricultural byproducts, often considered waste, have emerged as a promising source of bioplastic materials. This program will dive into the processes involved in converting agricultural waste into valuable bioplastics. It will also explore the environmental and economic benefits, the technological advances driving the field, and the potential for commercialization.
The course will provide an in-depth understanding of the chemistry, processing techniques, and applications of bioplastics made from agricultural byproducts. By the end of the program, participants will be equipped with the skills to design sustainable bioplastic solutions that contribute to reducing plastic pollution and the carbon footprint.
Aim
The program aims to explore the emerging field of bioplastics derived from agricultural byproducts, focusing on sustainability, innovation, and practical applications. It will equip participants with the necessary skills and knowledge to contribute to the growing bioplastics industry. Participants will also explore environmental impact reduction through sustainable material alternatives.
