Alternative product solution to environmental pollution
Bartin University (BARÜ) academicians will contribute to the protection of the environment by developing alternative products to plastic. The project was born in 7 years in the fight against global climate change and environmental pollution, was worth noting in December last year under the 1002-Fast Support Program of TÜBİTAK (Turkey Scientific and Technological Research Institute). Bartın Forest School Teaching Member Prof. Posted by Dr. Dr. Sea Aydemir, has been lost in nature for many years, alternative to plastic, which has negative effects of human health, as well as environmental, sea and forest life, unsafe product developed processes in nature k. The project will work for 12 months to develop new generation biopolymers ( biomateryal produced by food organisms).
"Alternative solution offer will be available"]

Deniz Aydemir said that about 90 percent of the tools needed in daily life is added from petroleum or plastics bags and 2 million plastic bottles are used in every 5 minutes in the world. Aydemir, which pointed out that such materials have been deteriorating in nature and getting lost for many years, "Therefore now we have concentrated on the development of new generation biopolymers to replace explosive polymers. Mechanical resistance of these biopolymers is mild. This is why it works on the use facilities in the packaging sector by means of various methods. With the project, the solution for alternative solutions to environmental pollution issues will be developed by the development of new products to the packaging sector. Aydemir has preserved that the laboratory has been working on starch-based biopolymer, which can be used to plastic since 2015, and it is the global warming and environmental pollution connected to plastic waste at the focus of its work. Aydemir, who draws attention to the fact that plastic use in the world creates load in nature, "This is of course, can damage the creation of animals in the sea, or even whales. We also know that too large bags die from marijuanas. In order to prevent plastic load in nature, we have been trying to develop products that are faster deteriorating in nature and can less harmonic human. [[
Many environmental problem cause]
]The sea Aydemir tells you that there are many different types of plastic in nature, "The plastic you skip to the heat is perhaps lost for centuries and cause many environmental problems. The ingredients we want to use; according to the scientific studies, it was detected by the entire 1-1.5 months in nature, and even this biopolymer, as it is starch-based, animals can also consume." Aydemir, who expresses that plastic is used in many areas, "This plastic use can cause various types of cancer after a certain period of time by depositing in the body. To prevent them, we will develop new alternatives by using materials that come from nature and are friendly to nature.
"Works related to change valuable"]][
Rector Prof. Home. Orhan Long also noted that studies on climate change in educational teaching, research development and social responsibility are valued. Long, who pointed out how the steps to start from today, will be closely related to how the world will appear in the coming years, in this direction, he expressed that they together with all components in the fight against climate change and work with the awareness of the importance of science-based development for the future.
