to con- sider the product lifecycle as a whole: fibers are opti- mally used and reused until recycling is no longer possible. for example, residues and by-products are further utilized – for instance thermally – in order to generate energy. new technologies are also making it possible to obtain cellulose...
possible, and find new value for them once they've been used. partnering with ting chi, associate professor in amdt, and jinwen zhang, professor in the school of mechanical and materials engineering, liu this fall enhanced her research project through a new grant, "environmentally friendly cotton/cellulose...
tropics, and without defoliation or freezing, the plant will continue to grow. cotton continues to be picked by hand in developing countries . [ ] competition from synthetic fibers the era of manufactured fibers began with the development of rayon in france in the s. rayon is derived from a natural cellulose...

cellulosic, unlike corn ethanol, is a second generation biofuel (corn ethanol is a first generation) which means it comes from cellulose contained in non food plant material, either remnant products of food crops, or entirely non food crops. a drawback of first generation biofuels is that since they...
texture. decoration nylon a transparent monofillament which can be melted by an iron. nylon is usually stronger than polyester. strength with transparency polyester a synthetic blend which is stronger and stretchier than cotton with little or no lint (may be texturized) strength rayon made from cellulose...
– e what it is: anti-caking agent and thickener usually made from wood. it is also sometimes used to bulk up foods with fake fiber. why to avoid: cellulose is much cheaper to obtain from wood than from vegetables, so the food industry uses wood byproducts to make it. cellulose can also come from vegetables...
leading producer of natural citrus fiber qualifies as a finalist for a food ingredients europe award. one of the awards is given to those offering innovative technologies for plant based foods. citri-fi, a natural citrus fiber holds high amounts of oil. consequently, this is key in replacing methyl cellulose...
