Work on the new material, which is easily recyclable and does not harm the environment, was carried out for 15 years.<br \/>\nPackages of ekoplenki could sustain up to two kilograms, says Sergei Tymchuk. They can easily turn small amounts of foods such as bread or sausage. &#8220;If the bread to put on our film, it remains fresh for up to four weeks. It can even be there without removing the packaging, &#8220;- says the inventor.<br \/>\nCommon polyethylene is not completely decomposed hundreds of years, but Kharkov film of starch dissolved in the ground for six months. And if you throw it in boiling water, then 15 minutes later it will be the basis for the broth.<br \/>\nIn France, Finland and Germany of such a film are already doing the packaging. We could borrow to buy technology and varieties, from which starch is extracted abroad. But then Ukraine would depend on the raw materials. Therefore maize variety for cooking Kharkov film brought themselves. At the stage of the recipe in the development of the university experts involved food and trade. Some farmers already grow the raw material for the biofilm.<br \/>\nTo produce &#8220;corn&#8221; films do not require expensive equipment. The entire production process &#8211; from grain to finished package &#8211; takes a few hours. However, starch package is more expensive than plastic. But as long as the state does not ban plastic bags, industrial production ekoplenki nothing to say.<br \/>\nEstablish mass production Tymchuk offer in Russia. But Kharkov refuses because he wants Ukraine to become the first in the use of its environmentally friendly products.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The team of Ukrainian scientists, headed by Kharkov, an employee of the laboratory of genetics, biotechnology and crop quality biosyrya Institute named Sergey Yuriev Tymchuk created a packaging film for food based on corn starch.
