Bio Medical Waste Incinerator System Manufacturer

Waterman engineers Australia manufactures all kind of incinerators for every kind of waste, every industry may be different surely, but have one thing in common, that is waste.

Disposing waste effectively for industries is a shared challenge. Industrial waste varies in many ways like in size, content, and calorific value. Disposal methods vary with the type of wastes to be disposed of for their safe and secure disposal.

Incineration is the most cost-effective and promising way to dispose of your industrial waste.

The term ‘incinerate’ means to burn something until nothing remains but sterile ash. High levels of heat are kept inside the furnace such that the waste is burnt faster and more effectively.

‘Flue gases’ are produced from this process of waste burning. In a Double chamber incinerator, these gases are also incinerated in the second chamber followed by a wet scrubber, cyclone separators, and chimney. The flue gases are cleaned of impurities before dispersing them in the atmosphere.

Thus, Dual-chamber systems are run by incinerating materials in a primary chamber and then incinerating the gases for a few seconds in a secondary chamber. Afterward, emissions from this system are cleaner and safer for the environment.

Research on degradability and reusability of protective coverall

With the advancement of technology and the development of the epidemic, the existing medical protective coverall is facing many new challenges. The following is how to improve the degradability and reusability of the medical protective coverall.

Degradability and Reusability

Microplastic pollution, known as "PM2.5 in water", has become a direct source of pollution to oceans, soil, and drinking water, affecting human health.

​

Almost all medical protective coverall is made of different polymer materials, and the development of new material can replace existing materials to form a new series of products. Because most of the existing disposable medical protective coverall is designed for one-time use, it is used in a huge amount during the epidemic. Used medical protective coverall as a dangerous item needs to be handled centrally to prevent secondary transmission of the virus.

Data show that within 40 days after January 20, 2020, 252,000 tons of medical waste were treated by incineration nationwide. Assuming that medical protective coverall can be repeated 20 times, medical waste treatment can be reduced to 1/20 of the original, and the economic and social benefits are huge. Therefore, protective coverall materials must be reusable and degradable.

Due to the particularity of the application scenario, medical protective coverall is mostly disposable. Therefore, environment-friendly materials should be considered when developing medical protective coverall, which must be considered before material selection and medical coverall design.

In 2009, two new low-carbon products that can be used to produce meltblown nonwovens appeared, which played a huge role in promoting the green development of medical protective coveralls. Some bio-based fibers can be prepared as inner layer protective materials, such as chitosan fiber, polylactic acid fiber, sodium alginate fiber, etc.

The use of disposable medical protective coveralls during the epidemic brought a large amount of medical waste. Compared with AAMIPB70:2012 and NFPA1999:2008 in the United States and EN13795:2011+A1:2013 and EN14126:2003 in Europe, the scope of application includes disposable And durable types, but my country lacks durable medical protection standards.

Under such circumstances, my country has completed the establishment of a durable medical protection standard during the epidemic. "Technical Requirements for Medical Protective coverall" will be officially implemented on January 1, 2021.

The environmental protection of disposable products, in addition to the green degradable and reusable raw materials themselves, the quantification of carbon emissions can also play an important role, and the quantification of the carbon footprint of medical protective coverall can quickly improve its environmental protection.

Holymed Medical Group's non-woven medical products Division, established in the year of 1980, is one of the first manufacturers which produce non-woven medical products in China. PP isolation gown is one of our products, you can click to view more details.

Ensuring Safe Waste Management with Bio-Medical Waste Bags and the Role of Conical Plastic Bags in Industry

The proper disposal and handling of waste, particularly bio-medical waste, has become a critical issue in today's health-conscious society. With the increase in healthcare facilities, there is a growing need to effectively manage the vast quantities of waste generated daily. Bio-medical waste includes any material that is potentially hazardous to humans or the environment, such as used syringes, gauze, contaminated gloves, and body fluids. To tackle this, specialized waste disposal methods and materials, like Bio-Medical Waste Bags, play a crucial role.

However, waste management is not limited to medical settings alone. In the broader industrial and commercial sectors, packaging materials like BOPP (Biaxially Oriented Polypropylene) bags and conical plastic bags serve a vital function in handling, transporting, and containing various products. Together, these different types of bags address both the needs of cleanliness and safe handling in different sectors.

The Importance of Bio-Medical Waste Bags

In healthcare facilities, clinics, and hospitals, bio-medical waste poses significant risks if not handled and disposed of properly. Bio-medical waste bags are designed specifically to meet the stringent guidelines required for the disposal of hazardous medical waste. These bags are usually color-coded to differentiate between different types of waste—yellow for infectious waste, red for sharp items, and blue for glass.

The purpose of bio-medical waste bags is to minimize the spread of infection and reduce exposure to harmful pathogens. The materials used in these bags are durable and leak-proof, ensuring that the waste remains contained during collection, transportation, and eventual disposal. These specialized bags also come with markings indicating the type of waste and the hospital or facility that generated it.

Not only do bio-medical waste bags play a role in infection control, but they also contribute to environmental protection. The disposal of these bags must be in compliance with environmental laws to ensure that they are incinerated or processed in ways that do not contaminate landfills or water bodies. Failure to adhere to proper waste disposal procedures can result in harmful pathogens entering the environment, posing a risk to both human health and ecosystems.

The need for high-quality bio-medical waste bags cannot be overstated. Proper waste management reduces the risk of infection and ensures that hazardous materials are isolated from people and wildlife. Hence, healthcare institutions must be diligent in sourcing their bio-medical waste bags from reputable manufacturers.

The Role of BOPP Bags in the Packaging Industry

While bio-medical waste bags are vital for healthcare and environmental safety, industries outside healthcare rely heavily on another form of packaging—BOPP bags. Biaxially Oriented Polypropylene (BOPP) bags are widely used for packaging various items like food products, fertilizers, seeds, and chemicals due to their exceptional strength and moisture barrier properties.

Manufacturers of BOPP bags ensure that they are designed to withstand various environmental conditions and protect the contents from spoilage, contamination, or damage. These bags are not only durable but also customizable. For instance, businesses can print their branding, logos, and product details on BOPP bags, making them an effective tool for marketing as well as packaging. The high-quality print on BOPP bags does not fade easily, allowing brands to retain their visibility over time.

Moreover, BOPP bags are eco-friendly compared to other types of plastic packaging, as they are recyclable and biodegradable. These bags also weigh less than traditional packaging materials, reducing transportation costs and the overall carbon footprint of businesses.

In wholesale markets, BOPP Bag Manufacturers play a crucial role by offering customized bags in bulk quantities. These bags come in various sizes, making them versatile for multiple applications across different industries. Whether it is for agricultural products, retail items, or industrial materials, BOPP bags are an indispensable resource for safe and efficient packaging.

As industries continue to focus on sustainability and reducing environmental impacts, the role of BOPP bags in creating eco-friendly packaging solutions is only set to grow. For manufacturers and businesses, sourcing high-quality BOPP bags is essential to maintain product integrity while also promoting a positive environmental footprint.

Versatility of Conical Plastic Bags in Industrial Use

While bio-medical waste bags and BOPP bags serve specialized roles, conical plastic bags are another category of bags that have carved out a niche, especially in the wholesale and industrial sectors. These bags, named for their conical shape, are primarily used for packaging bulk materials such as seeds, grains, and powders.

The conical design provides several advantages, including ease of filling and pouring out the contents. This makes them particularly popular in industries where efficiency in packaging and handling is essential. Conical plastic bags are durable, waterproof, and resistant to punctures, ensuring that the contents remain safe and intact during transportation or storage.

For businesses in the wholesale trade, conical plastic bags offer a cost-effective solution for bulk packaging. They are available in various sizes and thicknesses to accommodate different types of products. Whether used in the agricultural sector, food production, or other industries, these bags provide a practical solution for storing and transporting goods in large quantities.

Additionally, the manufacturing process for conical plastic bags has evolved, with many suppliers now offering recyclable and eco-friendly versions. This has become particularly important as industries strive to meet environmental regulations and reduce waste in landfills. Wholesale suppliers of conical plastic bags provide an essential service by offering these bags in large quantities to businesses that require efficient and reliable packaging solutions.

Conclusion

In the world of waste management and industrial packaging, the importance of reliable and specialized bags cannot be overlooked. From bio-medical waste bags that help healthcare facilities safely dispose of hazardous waste to BOPP bag manufacturers providing durable, customizable packaging solutions, to the versatile Conical Plastic Bags Wholesale used in bulk storage and transport—each type of bag plays a unique role in ensuring safety, efficiency, and environmental responsibility.

As industries and businesses continue to evolve, so too will the demand for innovative and sustainable packaging solutions. Proper waste disposal and packaging are essential not only for maintaining the integrity of products and services but also for safeguarding human health and the environment.

Environmentally Friendly Packaging & the Impact on Customer Satisfaction

In recent years, almost every business has aimed to become as environmentally friendly as possible, whether that be by using environmentally friendly products or just simply turning equipment off when not in use. In the packaging industry, the growing trend of becoming more environmentally friendly has been taken off, and it would seem that even consumers are looking to embrace the trend. Businesses are now starting to choose environmentally friendly packaging over that of non eco-friendly packaging, and consumers are becoming more and more influenced by this choice.

There are a number of ways to make your business more environmentally friendly, with the choice in packaging being the common focus for all businesses. Choosing packaging made from recycled, renewable ingredients is a simple way to reduce negative environmental impact. For packaging to be considered eco-friendly, it must have a minimal impact on the environment during its life cycle (from the creation of the packaging to the recycling of the packaging). There are a number of advantages to using eco-friendly packaging:

Decreases your Carbon Footprint: The obvious benefit to eco-friendly packaging is reducing your carbon footprint. Being made from bio-degradable, recycled materials means there is less waste of natural resources.

Disposal: Another benefit of eco-friendly packaging is the ease of disposal, often costing a considerable amount to move and dispose of supplies. Eco-friendly packaging on the other hand is compostable, reusable, and recyclable, meaning that after its original use, the packaging can be buried (compostable), recycled (Broken down and made into more packaging) or re-used (you can either re-use it yourself or recycle it to be used again).

Brand Image: One of the biggest benefits of using eco-friendly packaging is how it reflects on your business. When consumers learn you’re using eco-friendly packaging, it reinforces the idea that your business is a responsible company, willing to look out for the environment. Better brand image leads to better sales and better profits, all because you looked out for the environment.

Cost Benefits: The best news for your business is that eco-friendly packaging is actually cost-effective. With companies reducing the materials used in their packaging, manufacturing the packaging ends up costing less. With fewer materials, packaging weighs less, saving on transportation costs when compared to before.

However, the main question is, do consumers really care about eco-packaging? Well, fortunately, it appears they do. According to an article from sustainablebrands.com, “more than three-quarters of consumers claim that eco-friendly packaging has an influence on the beverage brand they purchase." Consumers are even willing to purchase products that might cost a little more if the packaging is eco-friendly and are sometimes even willing to avoid a specific brand for their lack of eco-friendly packaging. All of this information has lead to a large majority of businesses taking the environment into account as a part of their business strategy, looking to focus on using eco-friendly materials -- with renewable materials becoming a key focus from businesses.

While the stats do look promising, it’s worth noting that “environmental factors were a bigger influence for more developing countries like Brazil, Turkey and India, than in already developed areas like the UK, USA or Japan.” Developing countries saw around 60% of all surveyed saying that they actively look out for environmental information when thinking about purchases, compared to only 25% from the more developed countries. In another article by campaignlive.co.uk, it is said that in an online survey of 1,000 people, conducted by Toluna, “Almost two-fifths of respondents said they would be more likely to buy a product if it had less packaging than a rival’s. More than one-third said they thought some products have too much packaging, and 32% said they like products to have a lot of packaging, only if they are fragile.” It is shown that consumers link the amount of packaging on a product with value, with over-packaged products causing consumers to believe they will have to pay more for it, as well as the obvious impacts on the environment compared to well packaged eco-friendly packaging.

What is PLA packaging?

Firstly, PLA stands for Polylactic Acid. It’s a new type of high molecular polymer material and is commonly known as corn plastic. PLA is made from renewable resources, is biodegradable and has characteristics similar to Polypropylene (PP), Polyethylene (PE) and Polystyrene (PS). There are many uses for PLA and the most recognised include the following:

Bottles

Biodegradable medical devices (screws, pins, rods, plates etc.)

3D printing

Packaging

How is PLA packaging made?

PLA is a polyester made with two possible monomers or building blocks: lactic acid, and lactide. Lactic acid is produced by fermentation under controlled conditions of a carbohydrate source, such as corn starch or sugarcane, making the process sustainable and renewable.

PLA can be produced by the direct condensation of lactic acid. However, this process usually results in a low-density form of PLA (not ideal). In order to produce high-density PLA, the lactic acid must be heated in the presence of an acid catalyst to form cyclic lactide. This is known as ring-opening polymerisation.

How can PLA packaging be disposed?

When it comes to renewable and biodegradable packaging, the PLA packaging play a key part in the sustainability of the given product.

For PLA, there are two main methods of disposing:

1. Compost degradation – Within the first 180 days of a PLA product’s life, it’s 100% biodegradable and can be composted to ensure sustainability. PLA will decompose into digestible polymer fragments in about 7 days at 60°C in a moist environment - a typical composting condition for a large composting operation.

2. Renewable energy recovery (incineration) – Because PLA doesn’t contain any chlorine atoms, so can be safely incinerated under controlled conditions without producing any dioxins (highly toxic chemicals). Although, as biodegradability is the primary motive for PLA and other bioplastics, incineration should be considered after compost degradation as the end-of-life option.

What is PCR Packaging?

PCR means Post-Consumer Recycled material or Post Consumer Resin, and generally refers to plastics such as PET, PP and HDPE which are widely recycled and then reprocessed into a resin that is used to make new packaging. In simple terms, it is packaging that is being given a second life.

Why use PCR in your packaging?

Principally, because it helps the environment. Virgin plastics are generally processed from fossil fuels so reprocessing them has massive benefits to the environment. But that’s not the only reason to use them: The more people that use PCR resin, the greater the demand will be. This in turn drives more recycling of used plastic packaging, helping the commercial case to recycle and means that less plastic ends up in landfill, rivers or then becomes yet more plastic in the ocean. So by using PCR, you help the “snowball effect” of recycling. Many countries around the world are bringing in legislation to force the use of PCR and being a step ahead will help you to be compliant with regulations. Using PCR adds a responsible element to your brand and shows your marketplace that you care. Many consumers will be prepared to pay more for products packaged in PCR packaging, making your product more valuable and potentially more profitable.

How do spray bottles pump fluid?

Spray bottles are an extremely useful type of machine and an excellent demonstration of basic plumbing principles. A spray-bottle head is made up of only a few parts. It has a trigger lever, which activates a small pump. This pump is attached to a plastic tube that draws cleaning fluid from the bottom of the reservoir. The pump forces this liquid down a narrow barrel and out a small hole at the gun's muzzle. The hole, or nozzle, serves to focus the flowing liquid so that it forms a concentrated stream.

The only complex element in this design is the fluid pump, and it's about as simple as they come. The main moving element is a piston, housed inside a cylinder. Inside the cylinder, there is a small spring. To operate the pump, you pull the trigger back, pushing the piston into the cylinder. The moving piston compresses the spring, so when you release the trigger, the piston is pushed back out of the cylinder. These two strokes of the piston, into the cylinder and out again, constitute the entire pump cycle.

The downstroke, the piston pushing in, shrinks the area of the cylinder, forcing fluid out of the pump. The upstroke, the spring pushing the piston back out, expands the cylinder area, sucking fluid into the pump. In a spray bottle, you need to suck cleaning fluid in from the reservoir below and force it out through the barrel above. In order to get all of the fluid moving through the barrel, the pump must only force the fluid up -- it cannot force the fluid back into the reservoir. In other words, the fluid must move through the pump in only one direction.

The device that makes this possible is called a one-way valve. A spray bottle has two one-way valves in the pumping system: one between the pump and the reservoir and one between the pump and the nozzle. Typically, the valve between the pump and the reservoir consists of a tiny rubber ball that rests neatly inside a small seal. The sides of the seal are angled so that the ball won't fall through. Depending on the design, either gravity or a small spring holds this ball against the seal so that the water passageway is blocked off when you are not pumping. When the piston moves out (when you release the trigger), the expanding area of the cylinder sucks on the fluid below, pulling the ball up out of the seal. Since the ball is lifted up, fluid is free to flow from the reservoir. But when you squeeze the trigger, the outward force of the moving fluid pushes the ball into the seal, blocking off the passageway to the reservoir. Consequently, the pressurized fluid is pushed only into the barrel.

In a spray mechanism, the one-way valve between the pump and the nozzle is a sort of cup, which fits over the end of the barrel. On the upstroke, the inward pressure from the pump pulls the cup against the barrel, so air can't flow in through the nozzle. On the downstroke, the fluid pushing out lifts the cup off the barrel slightly and flows on through the nozzle. Without this second one-way valve, the pump system wouldn't be able to draw fluid up from the reservoir because there would be no suction (no drop in air pressure). The upstroke wouldn't lower the air pressure in the pump; it would only draw in more air to maintain that pressure.

5 Benefits of Using Tubes Packaging for Cosmetic Containers

In the cosmetics industry, we can see a great increase in demand for different types of cosmetic products, such as hair removal, anti-aging, and sunscreen products. The interesting thing is that both men and women are the buyers of these products. These products are sold in attract containers that protect the integrity of the material inside. Let's read about some of the benefits of tubes as cosmetic containers.

For cosmetic containers, plastic tubes are becoming the ideal choice. The reason is that they are attractive and versatile. That's the reason they can satisfy the needs of this fast-growing industry. Given below are some reasons these products are a great choice. Read on.

Affordable

Today, consumers are quite conscious as far as spending money is concerned. They try their level best to save as much money as possible. If you want to reduce your packaging costs, you can try the squeeze tubes.

Fancy cosmetic containers, such as glass are quite expensive. Therefore, they add to the price of the product. On the other hand, plastic tubes use the best technology available. Therefore, they are the most affordable option you can try. The cost is low but the container quality is great.

Versatile

Unlike plastic or glass, plastic tubes offer more versatility. The thing is that they are designed to carry a lot of a substance, such as a sunscreen or shampoo. Apart from this, the openings are adjustable to accommodate the product viscosity. This allows you to store different types of substances, such as cosmetic foundations, astringent toners, and creams, just to name a few. So, versatility is another primary benefit of using these tube containers.

Eco-friendly

Heavy jars of plastic and glass containers are quite eco-friendly. As a matter of fact, small containers don't waste plastic as they are recyclable. Actually, the makers of these products make use of green processes in order to have a minimal effect on the environment. Therefore, if you are looking for an eco-friendly option, we suggest that you try out these containers.

Transportable

Unlike glass containers, plastic tubes are more portable. The reason is that they cover less space, easier to transport and are less fragile. They are much easier to ship as they are more stable. Plus, they can make sure that the quality of the product is always high. You can carry multiple tubes in your own pocket.

Easy to use

Sanitary Napkin Incinerator Machine Market 2020 Specification, Growth Drivers, Industry Analysis Forecast – 2027

A sanitary napkin incinerator machine is used to dispose used sanitary napkins safely. Used sanitary napkins are often disposed of in dustbins or open surfaces, thereby giving rise to various contagious diseases or when disposed in toilets they block the sewage system. To overcome this common problem, a sanitary napkin incinerator machine is used to scientifically destroy the used napkins, thereby causing minimum harm to the environment. The machine burns the used napkins and reduces it to ash. The manual incinerator chamber is designed to include an auxiliary oil or gas burner to be used to maintain the prescribed minimum combustion temperature. These machines can be wall mounted or portable, based on their capacity.

The global market for absorbent hygiene products was worth more than US$ 50 Bn in 2017 which also includes wipes. The evolution of these hygiene products in North America and Europe has taken more than 4 to 5 generations. The increasing adoption of sanitary pads has given rise to their disposal issue. Out of the total number of sanitary pads, about 28% are thrown in routine waste, 28% are thrown in the open which takes around 500-800 years to decompose, about 33% are buried, and the remaining 15% are burnt in the open. Thus, the innovation of the sanitary napkin incinerator machine has provided an apt solution for their disposal. Many institutions have started using incinerators, also known as ‘feminine hygiene bins’ for the proper disposal of these napkins.

An average woman throws away about 150 kg of non-biodegradable absorbents each year. One of the major issue of sanitary waste is their categorization, whether it is plastic or biodegradable. Soiled napkins, diapers, and blood-soaked cotton needs to be disposed of after segregation into bio-degradable and non-biodegradable components. However, according to bio-medical waste rules, the items contaminated with body and bloody fluids, including dressings, cotton, soiled plaster casts, bedding and lines, are bio-medical waste and they need to be incinerated, microwaved, or autoclaved to destroy the pathogens.

The lack of concern about sanitary waste management in various regions will restrict the demand for their safe disposal, thereby hampering the demand for sanitary napkin incinerator machines over the forecast timeline. Moreover, not all incinerators are safe for the health and environment, thereby posing a challenge to make it highly efficient to dispose the waste. Furthermore, cultural challenges such as taboos and lack of sanitation adoption by women in rural areas can be a major challenge hindering the growth of the sanitary napkin incinerator machine market over the forecast period.

Polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) Production by Bacteria and its Application as Biodegradable Plastic in Various Industries-Juniper Publishers

JUNIPER PUBLISHERS- ACADEMIC JOURNAL OF POLYMER SCIENCE

Abstract

Commercially available plastics are commonly used in day to day life. The rate of accumulation of plastic in the environment is increasing day by day which becomes a major universal concern due to its less biodegradation property. Generated plastic waste is managed by incineration or landfill disposal. These processes are time -consuming and expensive. The main objective of the study involves the investigation bio-degradable polymers viz Polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) produced by bacterial species (Alcaligenes). The stock culture of Alcaligenes species was cultured at a rate of 5% in production media containing 2.5% of sucrose. The growth was quantified through optical density, biomass and PHB. The biomass of the culture was 2.7g/l. The growth curve was obtained that was following the same trend. The PHB was estimated through gas chromatography. The biodegradable plastic was significantly produced by bacteria in the production media that has potential in medical applications, including drug delivery and medical implants.

Keywords: Polyhydroxybutyrate; Polymers; Biodegradable

Abbrevations: PHB: Polyhydroxybutyrate; PHBV: Hydroxybutyrate-Co-Hydroxy Valerate; PHBHHx: Hydroxybutyrate-Co-Hydroxy Hexanoate; PHO: Polyhydroxy Octanoate; PP: Polypropylene; PE: Polyethylene; DCE: Dichloroethane

Introduction

Petroleum-derived plastics (commercially available) have become an integral part of our modern life which successfully replacing various other products over the years. From automobiles to medicine, plastics are utilized in almost every manufacturing industry in the world. Approximately 25 million tons of plastics are produced by the plastics industry every year [1]. The consistent dependency on commercial non-biodegradable plastics causes an adverse impact on environment viz. crude oil reduction and pollution. Disposal of plastic waste through incineration may generate toxic products and is expensive thermal process and recycling can be done but it is time -consuming process and alterations may occur in the plastics with time.

To overcome the hazardous impact of commercial plastics, there is an alternative of biopolymers such as aliphatic polyesters, polylactide, and polyhydroxyalkanoates. Polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) is one of the members of polyhydroxyalkanoates are the more promising candidate due to its biodegradable and eco- friendly property [2]. Polyhydroxybutyrate is produced by bacteria, fungi, molds etc. Polyhydroxybutyrate is eco-friendly plastic which has a wide range of applications. These lipid inclusions are accumulated in the bacteria as they entered the stationary phase of growth. Under limited nitrogen condition and in the presence of carbon source, some bacteria accumulate around 60–80% of their weight as PHB. Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) are polyesters synthesized by various microorganisms, such as Ralstonia eutropha, Alcaligenes latus, Aeromonas hydrophila, Pseudomonas putida and Bacillus [3–7].

The PHAs are classified by the number of carbon atoms in their monomers. In “short-chain length” PHAs, such as atalysed l utyrate (PHB) and polyhydroxyvalerate, carbon numbers of monomers are 3 to 5 whereas, carbon numbers in medium chain-length PHA monomers range from 6 to 16. In addition to PHB, more than 140 different PHAs have been identified (Figure 1). The PHA types, such as atalysed l utyrate (PHB), poly (Hydroxybutyrate-Co-Hydroxy Valerate) (PHBV), Poly (Hydroxybutyrate-Co-Hydroxy hexanoate) (PHBHHx) and Polyhydroxy Octanoate (PHO) are frequently studied for biomedical applications including tissue regeneration devices, repair devices, repair patches and sutures [8–11].

PHB has been the most promising biodegradable plastics and as an alternative to petrochemical plastics. This is due to their biocompatibility, biodegradability and versatile properties make it an eco-friendly substitute for synthetic polymers [12]. The molecular weight varies from 2–3 × 103K Da. The weight was depending on the species that actually producing the polymer [13]. PHB has more advantages because it is far less permeable than PE and PP, this known as a better material for food packaging needless to use antioxidant. Some industrial applications of PHB have been hampered owing to its low thermal stability and excessive brittleness upon storage. The main fermentation strategies used to obtain bio-products are batch culture, fed-batch culture, continuous culture and twostage fermentation. Two-stage fermentation is currently the most common method of producing PHAs. In the first stage of the proposed process, biomass is increased to the level needed for PHB production. In the second stage, nutrients are limited in order to stimulate PHB synthesis by bacteria. This study also applied a two-stage fermentation strategy.

PHB is produced by many genera of bacteria as inclusion bodies to serve as a carbon source and electron sink. PHB is synthesized from acetyl-CoA produce by the bacteria in the sequential action of three enzymes. 3-ketothiolase (phbA gene) catalysis the formation of a carbon-carbon bond by condensation of two acetyl-CoA NADPH dependent atalysed l-CoA reductase (phbB gene) catalyses the stereoselective reduction of atalysed l-CoA formed in the first reaction to R-3- hydroxy butyryl CoA. The third reaction of this pathway is atalysed by the enzyme PHB synthase (phbC gene) that catalyzes the polymerization of R-3- hydroxy butyryl- CoA to form PHB. The EC number is yet to be assigned to PHA synthase [14]. The biosynthetic pathway of PHB from acetyl-CoA was shown in Figure 2. PHB is a partially crystalline polymer which has material properties similar to Polypropylene (PP) and Polyethylene (PE) [15,16].

In this investigation, the efficiency of selected microorganism was evaluated towards the generation of PHB. The culture revived and quantified for various parameters including biomass, optical density and polymer (PHB) through gas chromatography.

Materials and Methods

The micro-organism was received from ATCC. The microorganism was stored in nutrient agar slants. The Alcaligenes was cultured in 50ml of nutrient broth. After the seed culture was developed it was subculture at a rate of 5% in production media (2.5% sucrose). Optical Density (OD) was measured at 600 nm in a UVIKON 930 spectrophotometer (Kontron Instruments, USA). The dry cell mass (biomass) was also estimated.

The content of PHB in the dried cells was estimated by gas chromatography (Nucon gas chromatograph 5765, AIMIL, India) with benzoic acid as an internal standard; 40 mg of dried cells was dissolved in 2mL of 1, 2-Dichloroethane (DCE) and 2 mL of acidified propanol and 200μL of internal standard. PHB was thus converted to the propyl ester of Hydroxybutyric Acid (HBA). After cooling to room temperature, 4mL of distilled water was added, and the mixture was shaken for 20–30 seconds. The heavier phase (DCE-propanol) was injected into the gas chromatograph column (2% Reoplex on chromosorb).

Results

In the present investigation, the gradual increase in the optical density was monitored till 30 hours after that stationary phase was observed with constant OD at 600nm. The dried mass of the cell pellet was around 2.7g/l in the shake flask experiment. The PHB was 2.1g/l in the lab scale experiment. The PHB was focused in this study due to various advantages such as ecofriendly behavior, non-toxic, biodegradable. There are various reports that clearly depict the generation of bio-plastics from the renewable substrates [17].

Discussion

The biodegradable plastic can have various applications: firstly, bioplastic can be used to develop agricultural and construction materials, automotive interior materials, electrical devices, bottles, containers etc. PHB is compatible with the body tissues that make their application in medical, pharmaceutical areas such as surgical sutures, wound dressings and ocular devices. PHB can be used as a packaging material [18] studied the effect of pasteurization on a meat salad packaged in the PHB film and found it to be a significant aspirant in packaging material [18,19].

Conclusion

The results of this study confirmed that the biodegradable plastic can be easily produced in the production media and also be quantified that reduces environmental pollution problems caused by conventional plastics and solving disposal problem of the agricultural wastes.
