Abstract
This research investigates the use of food waste as a source material for producing bioplastics. Food waste is processed to extract starch, which is then transformed into bioplastics through various chemical and enzymatic processes. The resulting bioplastics are characterized for their physical, mechanical, chemical, and thermal properties. Tests such as solubility, elongation at break, water absorption, and thermal stability are carried out, along with evaluations of biodegradability and compostability. The findings demonstrate that bioplastics derived from food waste have comparable properties to traditional plastics, while also exhibiting significant biodegradability. This study offers a novel approach for waste management and emphasizes the importance of sustainable practices in addressing plastic pollution.
