Biodegradable, Anti-Pollutant Breakfast Plates Using Sugarcane Leaves or Bagasse

Abstract

Today the plastic paper plates have become the basic need for any day to day functions and events. But now a days, the plastic plates are banned because it hazards the environment. So we have just made the use of biodegradable materials available in nature due to which the safe environment can be maintained. The material bonding by the various chemicals is tested and the best suited chemicals are confirmed for testing. The final compositions for the chemicals and other ingredients are selected as per the required strength of plate. We have also used the petroleum jelly for preventing the unwanted adhesiveness with the die and punch. We have also designed Die and Punch for hydraulic operated Press Machine. The main aim for this project is to reduce plastic and paper waste bye replacing it by the biodegradable, non-harmful, anti pollutant and environment friendly material to prevent the damage or harm to nature.
