Biodegradation of hemicellulose-cellulose-starch-based bioplastics and microbial polyesters
(2021-01-01)
The volume of discarded solid wastes, especially plastic, which accumulates in large quan-tities in different environments, has substantially increased. Population growth and the consumption pattern of societies associated ...
Biodegradation of PHBV/GNS nanocomposites by Penicillium funiculosum
(2017-01-20)
Biodegradable polymer nanocomposites are an essential alternative to minimize the generation of polymeric solid waste that shows short shelf life and difficult degradation. In this study, nanocomposites based on ...
Ecotoxicity Evaluation of the Biodegradable Polymers PLA, PBAT and its Blends Using Allium cepa as Test Organism
(2018-03-01)
Biodegradable polymers are considered a feasible option to minimize the environment impacts of high disposal of solid waste. Nevertheless, environmental safety of these materials is a few explored issue. In this context, ...
Biodegradation of biodiesel/diesel blends by Candida viswanathii
(Academic Journals, 2009-06-17)
This work is aimed to assess the aerobic biodegradation of biodiesel/diesel blends (0, 2, 5, 20 and 100%, v/v) by Candida viswanathii. The biodegradation potential of the inoculum was assessed with the redox indicator ...
Biodegradation of Coir and Sisal Applied in the Automotive Industry
(Springer/plenum Publishers, 2011-09-01)
This paper discusses the results of biodegradability tests of natural fibers used by the automotive industry, namely: coir, coir with latex, and sisal. The biodegradation of coir, coir with latex, and of sisal fibers was ...

Biodegradable Implantable Sensors: Materials Design, Fabrication, and Applications
(2021-01-01)
The ability to monitor diseases, therapies, and their effects on the body is a critical component of modern care and personalized medicine. Real time monitoring can be achieved by analyzing body fluids or by applying sensors ...
Technical approaches to evaluate the surfactant-enhanced biodegradation of biodiesel and vegetable oils
(2019-09-01)
This research compared the effects of biosurfactant on the biodegradation of biodiesel and vegetable oils while validating two conceptually diverging methodologies. The two experimental setups were successfully modeled ...
Study of stillage biodegradation by respirometry in sandy and clay soils
(2013)
The stillage, which is a liquid residue from the distillation of the sugarcane ethanolic fermentation, contains organic matter and can be a big source of pollution when it is discarded in the wrong way. Its application as ...
