ABSTRACT Using paddy straw, a frequently wasted agricultural leftover, to produce biodegradable paper offers a sustainable substitute for conventional wood pulp in light of growing environmental concerns about deforestation and plastic pollution. While evaluating the financial and environmental advantages of using paddy straw, the research focuses on improving yield and quality through the optimization of pulping and processing methods. To make sure the final paper is suitable for commercial purposes, the study will examine its physical and chemical characteristics. By lowering waste and encouraging environmentally friendly methods in the paper industry, this project ultimately aims to advance a circular economy in agriculture. 1. INTRODUCTION The use of wood as a primary raw material and the energy-intensive methods necessary for its production have made the worldwide paper industry a significant contributor to environmental degradation for a long time. This has resulted in subs...
