Elaboración de un plan de negocios para la producción y comercialización de bioplástico, obtenido a partir de residuos orgánicos en la Localidad de Puente Aranda

Abstract

The revolution in the generation of goods and services originating from the industrial revolution brought with it increases in quality, well-being and longevity in the lives of human beings, without taking into account the effects on the environment that surrounds us. Hand in hand with the exploitation and refining of fossil fuels, secondary products are originated whose main composition is based on polymers (plastics) that hinder their harmonic degradation with the environment. In the modern context in which we live, plastic, from the packaging of materials and cutlery to packaging, food packaging, medical devices and endless products and applications, has become one of the biggest environmental problems for ecosystems. marine. and terrestrial. It is complex to imagine a chain of production, distribution and consumption without the use of plastic materials, several national and international pilot tests have been carried out with relative success of "deplasticization of the consumption of goods and services, but this is only 31% of plastic generated and consumed worldwide Plastic waste is highly persistent in the environment, such is its difficulty in biodegrading and the incorrect final disposal given to these compounds, that islands the size of countries are being formed in the Pacific and Atlantic oceans such as Switzerland and Belgium. And growing. with polymeric products dating back to the 1960s. Research by prestigious scientific authorities identifies that the average biodegradability of these wastes ranges between 150 and 200 years. To mitigate the seriousness of the aforementioned situation, notorious efforts have been made to modify the chemical structure of the polymeric chains (INORGANIC) of these products towards or Organic Structures (BIOPLASTIC) with similar characteristics of quality, appearance and economic viability. From research and applications from microorganisms to by-products derived from the production chain such as sugar, rice and other agricultural products. The present work is developed with the purpose of generating a business plan for the production and commercialization of Bioplastic obtained from the glycerization and resination of organic waste in the town of Puente Aranda, which directly opens doors for its implementation. It goes hand in hand with the environmental benefit of increasing the percentage and speed of biodegradation of these residues.
