Abstract

In the process of making plastics, potentially dangerous substances like colourants or stabilisers are added. One example is phthalates, which are used to make PVC. The ecology is significantly impacted by the way plastic products are disposed of as well. The majority of plastics can take a long time to biodegrade lengthy time to break down if disposed of in a landfill. The issue of plastic trash is getting worse. Plastic is incredibly valuable due to its cheap availability and low cost of production; however, its recyclability has been oversold. Mycelium mould is a fantastic substitute for plastic. Mycelium is more efficient in terms of biodegradability and sustainability compared to plastic. The properties of Mycelium include heat insulation, fire resistance, water resistant, acoustic insulation, low weight, vegan meat, beauty products, and mainly bio-degradable. All these features make mycelium our only last chance to win the war against the plastic with greater potential than the other alternatives for plastics available in the market currently. Here, we have shown how mycelium can be grown in the most efficient way ever without any contamination and faster growth cycle. The primary goal is to lower the cost of mycelium mould, lessen mycelium spoiling, and accelerate its growth cycle by offering an ideal growing.
