Sugarcane bagasse, the fibrous residue left after juice extraction, makes up 30–40% of the harvested crop and is often discarded or burned, causing pollution and resource wastage. This project introduces PaperCane, a sustainable solution that transforms bagasse into eco-friendly paper. With rising demand for paper contributing to deforestation and excessive water use, PaperCane provides a renewable alternative by utilizing an abundant agricultural byproduct.The process converts bagasse fibers into biodegradable paper through minimal chemical treatment, ensuring reduced carbon emissions, lower water consumption, and decreased waste accumulation. Unlike conventional wood pulp production, PaperCane supports a circular economy by repurposing agricultural waste into valuable products.By addressing environmental challenges such as deforestation and pollution, PaperCane demonstrates how innovation can foster sustainability. This initiative highlights the potential of renewable resources in reducing environmental degradation and contributes to building a greener, more sustainable future.
