Handbook of Biodegradable Polymers

Handbook of Biodegradable polymer/plastics....
The present volume reviews the most important achievements, the programs and approaches of institutions, private sector and universities to develop bioplastics and explores their potential utility. The volume covers: the most relevant bioplastics from renewable and non renewable origin and the present business situation; a review of the main studies on the environmental impact of bioplastics and a critical analysis of the methodologies involved; the potential of new areas such as biocatalysis in the development of new bioplastics. It also takes into consideration aspects related to the biodegradation of bioplastics in different environments and the related standards and case studies showing their use in helping to solve specifi c solid waste problems.
The demand for biodegradable polymers has steadily grown over the last ten years at an annual rate of between 20 and 30%. The market share, however, is very modest accounting for less than 0.1% of the total plastics market.
