2. •As we all know rice straw is a waste products of
rice. Rice straw is often burned and that causes air
pollution. By making a paper made of rice straw we
can help the farmers to reduce their waste products
and reduce the air pollution when farmers burn them.
We are proposing a possible solution by using rice
straws to create papers. This paper is
environmental friendly because we didn't need to
cut trees to create it.
BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
3. • The main components of paper are cellulose and
hemicellulose. The plant fibers for papermaking
include wood fiber and non-wood fiber. The main
compositions of plant fibers are cellulose,
hemicellulose, and lignin. Paper pulping is a process
of removing lignin as much as possible and retaining
cellulose and hemicellulose.
BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
4. • Wood fiber is a high-quality papermaking material
and it has a great advantage in the paper industry.
With the rapid development of industry, the
contradiction between supply and demand of wood,
the search for non-wood fiber paper raw material is a
realistic and urgent problem to be solved.
BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
5. • Rice straw is a cheap non-wood fiber material that is
possible alternative for papermaking. Since the fiber
length ratio is large, which is good for interweaving
and bonding between fibers, and increase the
smoothness and transparency of the paper. Bleached
straw pulp can be applied into a common culture
paper making, also can be used with wood pulp to
make high-quality printing paper and writing paper.
BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
6. • THIS STUDY AIMS TO DEVELOP AN ALTERNATIVE
PAPER MADE OUT OF RICE STRAW.
PARTICULARLLY, IT ANSWERS THIS QUESTIONS:
• DOES RICE STRAW CAN BE TURNED INTO PAPER?
• DOES MAKING A PAPER MADE OUT OF RICE
STRAW DECREASE THE AIR POLLUTION IN OUR
ENVIRONMENT?
