Preparation and Performance Evaluation of LDPE/Rice Starch Blend Composites by Extrusion Method
Abstract: Discarding synthetic polymers such as low-density polyethylene (LDPE) used in food packaging ingredients is today considered a serious ecological threat because they are non-decomposable. The goal of this article is to create a decomposable polymer by incorporating a bio-polymer (starch) into its polymeric matrix. This article focuses on the preparation and characterization of rice starch (RS)-mixed LDPE decomposable polymer. In the first study, the effect of variability of RS content …

Investigation on Stability Analysis of Polanga oil Methyl Ester
Abstract: Biodiesel is a renewable alternative fuel and consists of mono-alkyl esters of the fatty acids. One of the major technical problems associated with the biodiesel is its storage stability and susceptibility to oxidation because of its chemical nature. This nature of the biodiesel is due to unsaturated fatty acid chains in its molecular structure. Also, the presence of the double bond in the molecule of the biodiesel produces a high …

Farm-Scale Biogas Generation and Upgradation as Transportation Fuel
Abstract: Biogas from the bio degradable biomass like slurry, agricultural wastes, and kitchen wastes mainly consists of the methane, carbon di oxide and the trace amount of sulfur and hydrogen. Methane has a higher calorific value to be used as a transportation fuel and the residual waste after decomposition of biomass can be effectively used as fertilizer. However, the presence of other constituents along with methane significantly hinders the in cylinder …
