Done by Group : Arwa_Diamond8 School Name : Arwa Bint Abdulmotaleb School Food Packaging Module :through our activities with Albairaq we learned that Food packaging have many different purposes and the packaging materials have so many properties. our Idea is :We decided that we invent something useful fore Qatar and reduces consumption in the state of Qatar the idea is that we put tow things in one for example : when you want to go to the cinema and you want to buy popcorn and some drink you must hold tow things and some time you need a bag to be more useful so we will make something to carry the popcorn and the drink in the same time to be more easier.

3. Introduction
Packaging is the science, art and technology
of
enclosing or protecting products for distribution,
storage, sale, and use. Packaging also refers to
the
process of design, evaluation, and production of
packages.
Packaging is heavily integrated into our daily
lives,
the main use for packaging is protection of the
foods inside, packaging also provides us with a
recognizable logo, or packaging

4. Activity 1:Investigating food
packaging
In activity 1 you
may think how the
microwave
popcorn cooked
the answer is that
the cooking bag
have a thin
metalize film call
‘susceptor patch’
that focus the
microwave waves
on that place to
make the popcorn
cooked

6. Activity 2:Analyzing food packaging
materials
The package that contain the product is
important because it help to keep the solid food
or the liquids inside to avoid spoiling or to keep
the food in the temperature that you want .

8. Activity 3:Evaluating the impact of
food packaging on the
environment
A certain amount of packaging is
necessary. it makes food easy to
handle ,helps keep food sate to eat
,and protects it from damage.
One to reduce the amount of
packaging used for food products.
For instance, one fast-food
company switched from cardboard
to paper containers for their hash-brown
potatoes.

Result: The packaging that has lowest mass is the one that requires the least
amount of materials and energy to product takes less energy to transport and
product the last amount of waste by weight in landfills .

10. Activity 4 : Researching food
packaging materials
Plastic are versatile and flexible
materials and they may very suitable for
use in your project. This may be an area
of materials research that you need to
investigate in details . It is important that
you read the information below and
consider the type of plastic that will Best
suit your project.
All plastic are based on Polymers and
they are created by bonding molecules
together.
The Monomer and polymer are very
important in the plastic industry

11. Source reduction
Reducing the amount of materials and energy
used to make packaging and reduce the
environmental impact of food packaging

12. Activity 5 part 1:Designing a protective
packaging comparing different materials
(Tomato)
One purpose of food packaging is to protect foods from physical damage. Some
materials and package designs are better than others in protection .

13. Activity 5 part 1:Designing a protective packaging
comparing different materials (Tomato)

14. Activity 5 part 2: comparing
different materials (egg)
Your prediction about package will perform and why ?
Mass of
packaging
Mass of egg packaging /
product ratio
(92.9g) (57.9g) (86.2g)

15. Activity 6:Comparing the insulating
properties of packaging materials
Insulting
materials
slow the rate
of heat
transfer.
Some
materials are
better
insulators
than others .

17. POP & D
- Reduce pollution in the State of Qatar and
the preservation of the environment -To
facilitate the use from use
Preservation of food and food so that they remain healthy
and are eating
On the other hand, easing the user's comfort and our goal.
The use of light elements and Home, which helps us to
reduce pollution and maintain the cleanliness of our
society
Where we have the work of the plastic casing encases all
the elements that we used in our product to get rid of
them after the completion by the user .

18. Our idea
We decided that we invent something useful fore
Qatar and reduces consumption in the state of
Qatar the idea is that we put tow things in one
for example : when you want to go to the
cinema and you want to buy popcorn and
some drink you must hold tow things and
some time you need a bag to be more useful
so we will make something to carry the
popcorn and the drink in the same time to be
more easier.

19. Conclusion
(Overall)
Finally we got to the end of this research project
it was fun and wonderful and we got some
important information that will help us in our
life.
In other hand the work shop that we had was the
Maine part and the exact way to start in a big
competition like( Al-Bairaq ) to know the small
details about the main idea.

20. Acknowledgment
In the end we would like to thank our school,
teachers and miss Marwa from Al-Bairaq team
that support us in every thing because with out
that support we will not be here or even in this
important competition.
Special thanks for Al-Bairaq team, Unesco, Ras
Gas, Maersk oil and shell to regulate this
competition that will created for the privileged
generation is able to overcome the difficulties
