Ecological Aspects and Applications of Starch

The article characterizes starch as an important raw material for various technologies. properties of native starches (e.g. solubility, rheological or retrogradation) are not suitable the given purpose in some cases and therefore modified – physically, chemically biochemically. use derivatives such a way food production, well their technical is indicated. so-called "clean-label" represent relatively new group, marked with E index (they modified). Their advantage lies that they respect environment, producing chemical by-products. However, application by manufacturers requires caution to avoid excessive energy consumption resulting production costs. In article, main attention paid ecological biogas, bioethanol, biobutanol, flocculant, part photocatalytic surfaces, formulation biodegradable plastics adsorbent. addition literature review, examples research this area at Department Carbohydrates Cereals University Chemistry Technology given.
