| Abstract | In order to achieve a reduction in the use of disposable plastic packaging made from petroleum derivatives the use of organic wastes converted into biodegradable polymers is an opportunity. Therefore, the main objective of this research was to obtain a biopolymer developed through the conversion of orange peels. The use of tree structures allowed relating different variables that could have influence in the formulation of bioplastics. The variables that had more weight are the ratios of starch used in the formulation, the method to cool down the mix, and the drying method. In order to achieve the best biopolymer, the best variables were the use starch 100%, cooling at room temperature and dehydration for drying. The results can contribute to create a circular economy and will protect the environment. |
