This book provides a platform for researchers, engineers, and manufacturers to conceptualize green ideas for sustainably developing plastics and films from biomass and agricultural waste. The upscaling of sustainable bioplastic production is essential for the economic growth of industries and local communities as a means to tackle waste management issues. Therefore, this book acts as a guide to characterize various methodologies and applications for producing usable bioplastic products that will lift the burden imposed by excessive industrial waste pollution. This framework will not only contribute to support the health and management of local communities impacted by waste pollution, but will also support businesses economically through efficient and sustainable recycling practices. This work will inform readers in academia, business, and government sectors with the knowledge needed to control the waste generated from various sources and transfer them to valuable products. 1 Plastic Pollution in Africa -- 2 Remedial Attempt to Reduce Plastic Waste on the Environment -- 3 Bioplastic from Bio-based Materials -- 4 Emerging Technologies for Bioplastic Production -- 5 Development and Characterization of Biobased Plastic Fabricated Using Poly (Vinyl Alcohol) (PVA) as Based Material -- 6 Development and Characterization of Biodegradable Bioplastic Using Food Waste such as Corn Starch -- 7 Extraction and Characterization of Biofilms from Biopolymers -- 8 Development and Characterization of Biodegradable Bioplastics Using Agricultural Waste -- 9 Possible Applications of Developed Bioplastics -- 10 Life Cycle Analysis (LCA) of Bioplastics Compared to Conventional Plastics -- 11 The Environmental Benefits, Technical Challenges, and Scalability of the Bioplastic Production Methods -- 12 Bioplastic Re/upcycling. edited by Oluwatoyin Joseph Gbadeyan, Nirmala Deenadayalu.
