Abstract

Despite its environmental and health drawbacks, plastic continues to be widely used because of its cost-effectiveness and versatility. This study investigates the potential of biodegradable plastic made from cellulose derived from nata de coco, which is produced through the fermentation of Acetobacter xylinum bacteria, as a sustainable alternative to conventional non-biodegradable plastics. The structural integrity of the bioplastic was improved by adding cassava starch, glycerin, and CMC. Additionally, extracts from rose and Java plum were incorporated into the material to serve as indicators of food spoilage. Functionality tests revealed that the bioplastic containing rose extract demonstrated the most significant color change, likely due to the degradation of anthocyanins present in the extract. This research presents a promising approach to addressing plastic pollution and reducing food waste through the use of biodegradable smart packaging.

Abstract

Global coffee production generates significant amounts of spent coffee grounds (SCG), often discarded, creating environmental challenges. Cellulose, a major component of SCG, can be extracted for industrial applications, such as food packaging and bioplastics. This research aims to determine the optimal cellulose purification time for maximizing purity and characterize the physicochemical properties of the extracted cellulose for food industry use. The study investigates the effect of different purification times on cellulose purity. The highest purity (74.40%) was obtained at 180 minutes, with the extracted cellulose showing high crystallinity and favorable properties, such as low moisture content (3.49%), water absorption capacity (6.17%), and bulk density (0.2871 g/cm³). Characterization using SEM revealed the morphology of cellulose crystals, and analysis (Carr’s index: 15.33%, Hausner ratio: 1.1811) confirmed the material’s suitability for biocomposites in food applications. Color analysis (L*: 76.34, C*: 28.52, h*: 16.46, WI: 62.94) also highlighted the material’s potential for use in food formulations. This research provides valuable data for further applications of cellulose derived from SCG.
