Abstract

Pineapple peel waste may be utilized as a source of cellulose. This research work presents pineapple peel waste utilization to produce Bacterial Cellulose (BC) as a nanocomposite membrane with Copper Oxide (CuO) and Graphene reinforcement. The procedure involved crushing and homogenizing BC, followed by adding CuO and Graphene. The membrane analysis used XRD, FTIR, SEM, roughness, and tensile test. The results indicated that Graphene reduces the crystallinity and roughness of the membrane. The experiments revealed a strong link between BCNC, CuO, and Graphene, which increases the membrane strength. So, the BCNC/CuO/Graphene can be used as filter candidates.
