Abstract:An innovative approach based on hyperspectral imaging (HSI) was developed to monitor commercial starch-based (MaterBi®) disposable bioplastic behavior during anaerobic degradation. Mater-Bi® (MB) tableware items were selected among the ones available in supermarkets and compliant with the EN 13432 standard (EN 13432:2008). The MB items were manually cut in fragments with size ranging from 0.5 to 2 cm, removing the edges and the bottom to ensure test material homogeneity in terms of thickness. The anaerobic slu… Show more
