Veronika Bátori, who recently received her doctorate within Resource Recovery at the University of Borås, has taken the first steps towards making disposable products or bioplastic films from fruit waste becoming a reality.
In the thesis “Fruit wastes to biomaterials: Development of biofilms and 3D objects in a circular economy system,” she shows how she studied this in two types of wastes from apples and oranges.
