ECO VITA: Sustainable Manufacturing of Biodegradable Water Bottles from Agricultural Waste

Plastic pollution has emerged as one of the most critical global environmental challenges due to the extensive use of non-biodegradable, petroleum-based
materials in packaging industries. The accumulation of plastic waste in landfills and oceans has led to severe ecological imbalance, threatening biodiversity,
marine life, and human health. In response to this growing concern, this research focuses on the development of ECO VITA, an innovative biodegradable water
bottle produced using renewable agricultural waste materials such as sugarcane bagasse and corn starch.
The study examines the entire production lifecycle, including sustainable raw material sourcing, material composition, blending techniques, compression molding,
and quality assessment processes. Special emphasis is placed on the elimination of synthetic additives and dyes to ensure complete environmental compatibility.
The mechanical properties, structural integrity, and biodegradability of the developed bottles are evaluated and compared with conventional plastic alternatives.
The findings indicate that ECO VITA bottles exhibit satisfactory strength, durability for short-term usage, and a significantly faster decomposition rate under
natural conditions. Additionally, the use of agricultural by-products not only reduces waste but also promotes resource efficiency and supports a circular economy
model.
This research concludes that biodegradable bottles like ECO VITA have strong potential for large-scale industrial adoption, offering a sustainable and eco friendly
alternative to traditional plastic packaging while contributing to global environmental conservation efforts.
