Recipe Aerodynamic Paper

The task to produce energy with wind led us to look into what materials we can use to create an efficient windmill.Research was done in recyclable materials, common use objects that end up in the garbage, broken toys and plastic bottles. But these were almost entirely made out of different kind of plastic materials and polymers, which can be recycled professionally if properly segregated.

This led up to looking into the waste that a regular household produces, to discover that a large percentage of the waste is made up of organic waste and mainly putrescible waste. Trying to find the uses for the putrescible waste, that spoils the recyclable waste , a new material was born, ”Recipe Paper”.

Paper can be made from nearly every known vegetable fibre. Moss, straw, bark, vines, grass, bamboo. Except for certain special papers (e.g., asbestos paper), nearly all papers are made of cellulosic (vegetable) fibres.This research is centred on finding the best and most resistant paper that can be made with vegetable waste, looking into the material, the process, the preparation, the reinforcement, the geometry and waterproofing.
