Biochar from food waste as a sustainable replacement for carbon black in upcycled or compostable composites

This study investigates biochar, a carbon-based material produced via pyrolysis, as a filler in two plastics: biodegradable plastic polylactic acid (PLA) and recycled high-density polyethylene (HDPE). Specifically, we examine biochar derived from post-consumer food waste as a method to reuse this la...
