Bents' experiment demonstrated a practical application for future...
Scientists turn plastic waste into protein cookies; food can tackle hunger and feed space crews
Researchers at Southern Illinois University Carbondale are developing protein-rich cookies made using plastic waste and agricultural waste. Called µBites, the cookies use PET plastic from bottles and discarded corn stalks and leaves. Programmed yeasts convert processed waste into proteins, fats, acids and flavouring molecules. The NASA-linked project is aimed at developing food for resource-limite...
