Physicochemical Properties of Pineapple Plant Waste Fibers from the Leaves and Stems of Different Varieties

BioResources, 2014
Pineapple agro-waste, the residue produced during harvesting or processing activities, is widely available around the world. After harvesting, most pineapple residue is disposed of and serves as fertilizer, or is burnt in an open field.

Study of Natural Dyes and Pineapple Leaf Fibres Growing Locations within Plant Stems on Dyeing Intensity.

E3S Web of Conferences, 2018
The physical properties of fibres produced from pineapple leaves can vary due to the differences in growing locations within a stem and are influenced by leaf growth age. Pineapple leaf fibres require quality increase, particularly in dyeing.

Use of pineapple leaves to make looms

Revista del Instituto de Investigación de la Facultad de Ingeniería Geológica, Minera, Metalúrgica y Geográfica, 2019
The objective of this research work is to use pineapple leaves in stubble to make tissues; thus avoiding the inadequate management of final disposal of agricultural residues of pineapple production. The leaves of the pineapple plants that remain in the agricultural fields after the harvest of the fruit, we can give them other uses, since many times ...

Nanocellulose Extraction of Pineapple Leaves for Chitosan-starch Nanocomposites

Journal of Natural Fibers, 2020
Cellulose fibers obtained from waste pineapple leaves were chemically treated with acid hydrolysis for reduction to nanoscale size. Once the cellulose nanofibers were obtained, they were used as a reinforcing material (0.3%–1.0%) of a chitosan-starch matrix. Transmission and scanning electron microscopy was used to check the morphology and reduction of

Phosphorus fertilizer use in pineapple cultivation with in situ residues burning on organic soils [PDF]

, 2007
In Malaysia, pineapples are grown on peat soils, but most phosphorus (P) fertilizer recommendations are made without due quantification of P uptake; the distribution of P in roots, stem, leaves, peduncle, fruit, and crown; or loss through leaching even ...
