Cellulose pulp extraction from vegetable wastes: considerations about environmental and economic sustainability criteria
نویسندگان
چکیده
The improvement in current processes and in new processes triggers the search for materials and practices that can enable such advancement. However, in order to suit these improvements, it is relevant to consider sustainable issues. This paper presents sustainable approaches for processes and product development. From these approaches it was possible to derive guidelines that may be used as criteria for the analysis of pulp extraction processes, with focus on their environmental and economic features. Therefore, the assessment regarding these criteria use was done from the analysis of industrial processes of pulp extraction through bibliographic research and through opinion of experts from this field. The analysis of industrial processes of pulp extraction has shown practices developed in this sector, vis-à-vis sustainable requirements and the trends for processes improvement in order to make them more sustainable.
