Agricultural and industrial waste is being transformed into biopolymers as part of our research project. This waste can be converted into ‘plastic’ using a biochemical process, simultaneously breaking down any toxic substances. This enables previously unused, renewable raw materials –such as sugar beet pulp, marc, whey, waste from the tinned food and frozen food industries, as well as waste from the wood and paper industries –to be put to good use. The basic principles for manufacturing these biopolymers were developed by the Institute of Biotechnology and Biochemical Engineering at Graz University of Technology. VPZ helped fund a development step in this research project, which has been subsidised by the governments of Austria and Styria.
