DIY Bioplastics

Using research and activities published in the Journal of Chemical Engineering, learners will make their own bioplastics. This is not your typical bioplastics lesson. We will be upcycling food waste products, like orange peels and coffee grounds, to make plastics. We will also be talking about the structure of polymers and sustainability in the plastics lifecycle.
