Abstract

AbstractRenewable sources such as agro-waste, vegetable oil, and starch can made biodegradable polymers. PHAs are organic plastics with biodegradable property which made by microbial synthesis. They have peculiar/unique physicochemical properties that gain consideration. Under surrounded nutritional situations, such as nitrogen, oxygen, and low amount of phosphorous with carbon sources increment, microbial synthesis produces sustainable polymers. PHAs as eco-friendly polymer may be produced by pure isolated or genetically modified bacteria. Due to the ban of conventional plastics, it is necessary to commercialize PHA for its benefits of biocompatible as well as biodegradability. Expensive carbon source is one of the major sustainable PHA production limitations. Two ways to overcome high total price of PHA is using agro-industrial chip wastes and metabolic strains.KeywordsBiodegradabilityBiopolyestersFood packagingPolyhdroxyalkanoatesProperties
