| Descripción: | The manufacture of paper throughout the world has had very negative repercussions on the environment in general due to the raw material used in the activity. Given that paper is one of the most consumed products, the effects of its manufacture are what motivate this problem. In accordance with this, as an environmentally friendly alternative for the manufacture of paper, the Pistia Stratiotes plant is now known as an excellent source of raw material for that purpose and without harmful effects such as those mentioned. In the present analysis, the observation in tests is used by means of trial and error, the necessary adjustments are made and finally a compact and tenacious product is obtained for all conventional use. In addition to demonstrating the quality of this paper according to the exposed characteristics, in the results it can be evidenced as an additional attribute that it is not flammable, an important characteristic because it generates other investigations on the use of this raw material for the elaboration of other products. In conclusion of what has been said so far, it can be stated that the tests show that it is indeed possible to produce paper with better conditions based on the Pistia Stratiotes plant, although there are still no studies that allow scientifically establishing, for example, the repercussions that it could have the extraction of the plant from natural tributaries such as rivers. Therefore, and so it should be clarified, the current ones are results of an investigative nature that do not yet correspond to proposals for the exploitation of the plant. |
