Waste banana plant (Musa sp.) Trunks as an Alternative source of pulp for paper making Introduction Background of the study Edible Banana (Musa sp.) the plant is a gigantic herb that springs from an underground stem‚ or rhizome‚ to form a false trunk 3–6 meters (10–20 feet) high (Encyclopedia Britannica‚ 2006). Bananas cannot be grown anywhere because they are very sensitive to strong winds‚ hence‚ if planted on open areas‚ one must use windbreakers for the banana plant not to be harmed

researchers decided to find an organic‚ health-friendly‚ and effective fire extinguisher‚ and found out that banana peels contain tartaric acid‚ which when added to sodium bicarbonate and water‚ produces carbon dioxide that removes oxygen from a fire‚ causing the fire to decrease and stop. STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM This study will be conducted primarily to test the potential of Saba banana (Musa balbisiana) peels extracts as raw material in making an alternative fire extinguisher. The study aims to

Microbial spoilage There are three types of microorganisms that cause food spoilage -- yeasts‚ moulds and bacteria. Bacteria are round‚ rod or spiral shaped microorganisms. Bacteria may grow under a wide variety of conditions. There are many types of bacteria that cause spoilage. They can be divided into: spore-forming and non-spore-forming. Bacteria generally prefer low acid foods like vegetables and meat. In order to destroy bacteria spores in a relatively short period of time‚ low acid foods must
