ABSTRACT
Plastics are of wide range of synthetic or semisynthetic mouldable organic solids. Almost all aspects of
daily life involve plastics. Plastics play a role in in transport, telecommunications, clothing, footwear,
and as packaging materials that facilitate the transport of wide range of food, drink, and other goods.
These plastics are nonbiodegradable and cause waste disposable problems, leading to environmental
pollution. Therefore there is a need to study and to develop new biodegradable polymers with plastic like
properties. This review demonstrate the upstream and downstream processing of bioplastic.
Keywords : Bioplastic, Extraction, Characterisation.
