Core Insights - Agricultural waste, specifically straw, is being transformed into valuable resources through innovative research, particularly in the development of biodegradable agricultural films and renewable aviation fuel [1][2] Group 1: Biodegradable Agricultural Films - The biodegradable agricultural film made from straw is a promising renewable resource that can replace traditional polyethylene films, significantly reducing environmental pollution from plastic products [1] - The cost of straw-based biodegradable film is approximately 10,000 yuan per ton, which is 20% to 30% lower than the market price of conventional biodegradable films [1] - Current field demonstrations of this biodegradable film are taking place in provinces such as Yunnan, with a complete degradation time of about two months, although further adjustments are needed for different crops and environmental conditions before large-scale promotion [1] Group 2: Renewable Aviation Fuel - The research team is also exploring the production of renewable aviation fuel from straw, providing a zero-carbon alternative for the aviation industry [2] - The team has successfully reduced the number of operational units and energy requirements, significantly lowering fixed and operational costs while achieving high yields of renewable aviation fuel [2] - A pilot-scale facility has been designed and built, with all performance indicators meeting design requirements, and the next step is to accelerate the industrialization of this technology to replace fossil fuels in the aviation sector [2]
