Banana Peel: A Revolutionary Replacement for Packaging Films

Scientists have proposed replacing conventional packaging films and bags with banana peels. Researchers suggest extracting lignocellulosic fibers from bananas, followed by additional processing to create the film. This material is just as strong as plastic. Experiments have shown that banana peel films decompose by over 90% within a month when buried in soil, without producing any harmful or hazardous byproducts.
