U.S. uses waste to produce lactic acid polymer film

Researchers at the Argonne National Institute of Labor in the United States have used food-processed waste as raw materials to produce a lactic acid polymer film. It can be used as seed and fertilizer packaging materials, agricultural film and paper coating materials.

The process of using the waste from food processing to produce lactic acid polymer film is to first produce lactic acid from waste, then convert lactic acid into biodegradable lactic acid polymer, and finally make lactic acid polymer into a thin film. Used in many ways. This new film not only opens up new uses for food processing waste but also reduces environmental pollution.
