  1. 1. Sustainable food packaging based on polyhydroxyalkanoate

    Master-uppsats, Högskolan i Borås/Akademin för textil, teknik och ekonomi

    Författare :Safana Al-Ashor; [2024]
    Nyckelord :Biopolymers; Sustainable food packaging; Circular economy; Biobased and biodegradable materials; Food packaging; Processing technologies; Food quality; Shelf-life;

    Sammanfattning : The Norwegian Food Research Institute (Nofima) and the University of Borås worked together to develop this project. The commonly used packaging materials pose a serious threat to the environment, as they are produced from nonrenewable crude oil and cannot decompose naturally. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Paper vs Plastic: A comparative Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) of two flower packaging solutions

    Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

  3. 3. Biomimetically improved materials comprising microfibrillated cellulose

    Master-uppsats, Umeå universitet/Kemiska institutionen

    Författare :Cornelia Byström; [2021]
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Microfibrillated cellulose (MFC) is a renewable, cellulosic material mainly producedfrom wood fibers, which are found in the secondary cell walls of plant cells. With theincreased demand for renewable biopolymer films in packaging, MFC has emerged asa potential alternative to non-renewable polymer films. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Banana by-products in Thailand - Exploring its feasibility as bioplastics feedstock for food packaging

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Förpackningslogistik

    Författare :Ratchadetch Termpitipong; [2021]
    Nyckelord :Banana by-products; bio-based packaging; bioplastic; value chain; Thailand; feasibility; DEFT analysis; Technology and Engineering;

    Sammanfattning : This study aims to determine the operational feasibility of utilizing banana cultivation by-products as an alternative raw material in bioplastic production, replacing bio-based feedstock that is otherwise used as food in Thailand. By following the exploratory qualitative research approach, a combination of secondary sources of information together with interviews with the identified stakeholders involved in banana cultivation and bioplastic value chains were used in data collection process.
