Extracted Spent Coffee Grounds as a Performance-Enhancing Additive for Poly(Lactic Acid) Biodegradable Nursery Bags in Agriculture

This research developed eco-friendly nursery bags by combining biodegradable plastic (PLA) with leftover coffee grounds. The coffee grounds, which would otherwise be waste, improve the plastic’s flexibility and help it break down faster in soil. The resulting bags protect plant roots from sunlight while safely degrading in the environment within a few months, offering farmers a sustainable alternative to traditional plastic bags.
