Production of paper from pineapple leaves

Journal of Environmental Chemical Engineering, 2017
Abstract Wood is used as the major raw material in paper production around the world and this has resulted in severe deforestations having direct negative impact on our environment. This has led to the need of finding alternative raw materials for paper production.

Chemical analysis and pulping study of pineapple crown leaves

Industrial Crops and Products, 2006
Abstract The potential of the pineapple crown leaves as a pulp source was explored. Preliminary results showed that the semichemical mechanical process yielded a pulp of which handsheets without damage could not be made. However, the alkaline pulping process such as kraft or soda resulted in a pulp of which normal handsheets could be produced.

Pineapple (Ananás comosus) leaves ash as a solid base catalyst for biodiesel synthesis

Bioresource Technology, 2020
Homogeneous catalysts used for biodiesel synthesis have several limitations, including non-recoverability/reusability, saponification, emulsification, equipment corrosion, and environmental pollution. To overcome these limitations, we synthesized a novel catalyst via calcination of pineapple leaves waste. This catalyst was characterized by X-ray powder

Structure and Characteristics of Pineapple Leaf Fibers Obtained from Pineapple Leaves

Advanced Materials Research, 2014
Pineapple leaf fiber is a nature hemp leaf fiber extracted from pineapple leaves. Its structural characteristics was investigated by means of scanning electron microscope (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermogravimetric analysis (TG).

Preparation and characterization of irradiated magnetic pineapple leaves for paper production

AIP Conference Proceedings, 2021
Deforestation issues were increased dramatically every year especially in order for the production of paper. This was caused by the demand for making paper and furniture from wood sources. The supply of paper nowadays all depends on the wood. This experiment has been conducted to analyses the viability of magnetic pineapple leaves paper as a ...

PRE- AND POSTHARVEST METABOLISM OF CROWN LEAVES OF PINEAPPLE FRUIT

Acta Horticulturae, 2011
Crown burn on exported pineapple fruit causes serious economical losses. In this study, crown burn occurrence was hypothesized to be related to Crassulacean Acid Metabolism (CAM). However, the functioning of this metabolism in the crown leaves remained unexplored.

ON PARAMETRIC STUDY OF FLUID LEAVES AND FLUID PINEAPPLE

International Journal of Fluid Mechanics Research
Liquid chain is a commonly known phenomenon, and it is found to be formed under free fall or due to impact of liquid on surface. Usually, these liquid chains have rim and lamina, which are explained by instabilities. In this article, we examined a variant of liquid chain and carried a parametric study experimentally. Since this phenomenon is reason for

Cell wall alterations in the leaves of fusariosis-resistant and susceptible pineapple cultivars

Plant Cell Reports, 2010
Fusariosis, caused by the fungus Fusarium subglutinans f. sp. ananas (Syn. F. guttiforme), is one of the main phytosanitary threats to pineapple (Ananas comosus var. comosus). Identification of plant cell responses to pathogens is important in understanding the plant-pathogen relationship and establishing strategies to improve and select resistant ...
