Introduction
Project supported by:
- Rt Hon Mark Drakeford MS – Cardiff East
- Bangor University Head of Materials Research
Purpose of project:
- Produce paper using readily available, abundant and cheap raw materials
- Innovative process without chopping down trees and not harmful to the planet
Our simple process will extract the cellulose from this material to make paper.
Using this procedure will help sustain and protect:
- Trees, preventing deforestation
- Natural habitat and ecological diversity of countless species
- Earth’s Eco system
- Global warming and the Ozone layer
- Wild birds, animal and Insects
- Rivers and fresh waterways
