Converting avocado waste to shelf life-extending packaging.

Value-adding avocados! The waste produced during the processing of avocados for food items can account for more than 45 percent of their total weight. The project aims to develop a new biodegradable packaging system from this waste, extending food shelf life through an oxygen barrier label and the incorporation of natural antioxidants extracted from avocados. The process extracts and purifies starch from the avocado seed to produce a film for multilayer IML labels with oxygen barrier properties.

將鱷梨廢料轉換為可延長保質期的包裝。鱷梨增值！ 在鱷梨加工食品過程中產生的廢物佔其總重量的45％以上。 該項目旨在利用這種廢物開發一種新的可生物降解的包裝系統，通過隔氧標籤和摻入從鱷梨中提取的天然抗氧化劑來延長食品的保質期。 該方法從鱷梨種子中提取和純化澱粉，以生產具有氧氣阻隔性能的多層IML標籤膜。
