Abstract The membranes can be synthesized from organic and inorganic materials. One of the based materials used was a cellulose acetate membrane banana peel. Banana peel comprised 65% cellulose, therefore it had potential to processed into membrane. Cellulose are using mixture skin with 55% acetone 27% dimethylformamide phase inversion technique. SEM results pictured porous pore size about 5 μm...

HIGHLIGHTS In Brazil, many banana cultivars can be used in the making of flour. Flours prepared from pulp, peel, or whole (pulp and peel). Staged I II maturation should prioritized due to starch content. The sensory analysis supports possibility industrial use flours.

Banana varieties have a significant effect on the reducing sugar content in peel. In recent years, potential efforts been directed towards utilization of cheap renewable agricultural resources, such as banana peel waste alternative substrate for ethanol production. Various conversion pathways are compared from technical, economic, and environmental points view. This study also deals mainly with...

Banana peel, whose use is unknown to the wider community, has economic value if it processed into toothpaste which can be used as a source of income for students and surrounding community. Through Student Creativity Program, hoped that become an innovation in creating business opportunities among by utilizing simple technology making pasta products from banana peel charcoal. The process consist...

Crown rot caused by fungal pathogen is the most prevalent postharvest disease in banana fruit that results significant economic losses during transportation, storage, and ripening period. Antifungal effects of ultraviolet C (UVC) irradiation at doses varied from 0.01 to 0.30 kJ m-2 were investigated in controlling postharvest crown rot disease, maintenance of fruit quality, and the effects on a...

Banana peel; Chromium; Low-cost; Acrylonitrile; Grafting Abstract The adsorptive removal of hexavalent chromium Cr(VI) from aqueous solutions was investigated by acrylonitrile grafted banana peels (GBPs). Banana peels were treated with 10% HCl, followed by alkaline hydrolysis with 10% NaOH, and washed thoroughly. The bleaching of alkali hydrolyzed peels was carried out with sodium chlorate (NaC...

Agroindustrial waste (AIW) is a potential source of cellulose, which can be obtained through different treatments. In this study, we evaluated four delignification treatments (10% sodium hydroxide, 50% ethanol, distilled water, and 25% Mohr's salt) to obtain cellulose pulp from Amazonian AIWs (banana peel, cassava sugarcane bagasse, rice husk). Our results showed that hydroxide treatment had th...
