西班牙的研究人员正在进行一个项目,该项目主要将柑橘类果汁行业中的大量废弃柑橘皮改造成生物塑料的果汁瓶和挤压型材。西班牙塑料技术研究所(AIMPLAS)的员工以及学者加入到了该行业,通过微生物发酵和生物聚酯作用提取了重要的原料单体。该项目获得了西班牙政府的大力支持,在果汁生产商、生物科学家、工业研究院以及塑料企业的共同帮助下, Researchers in Spain are working on a project that will mainly convert large quantities of discarded citrus peel in the citrus juice industry into bio plastic juice bottles and extruded profiles. Employees and academics from AIMPLAS joined the industry to extract important monomer feedstocks through microbial fermentation and bio-polyester. The project received the strong support of the Spanish government, with the help of fruit juice producers, biosciences, industrial research institutes and plastics companies,
