A research team has transformed underused rapeseed-processing residues into a biodegradable active film developed to protect fresh food, aimed at replacing petroleum-based packaging. The material combines chitosan (CS) with...

A recent study has converted mixed plastic packaging waste into high-purity hydrogen in a low-temperature process that locks carbon in solid carbonate compounds. Researchers from the University of California, Los Angeles, Samueli...

Scientists have developed mycelium-based composites (MBCs) using fungal strains and lignocellulosic waste materials, introducing a biodegradable alternative to synthetic protective packaging materials such as expanded polystyrene...
