Extraction of Keratin from Poultry Feathers by Sustainable Methods

Implementing Organization

Naturitech Private Limited, Manipur

Project Overview

The project adopts an integrated approach, minimizing the time of enzyme hydrolysis through pretreatment with a minimal concentration of alkali followed by a physical method. The primary target is to reduce the number of unit operations, ultimately lowering downstream processing costs. The applied methodologies focus on achieving a high yield of keratin without compromising quality.

Benefits

The project's social impact is multifaceted, encompassing effective and sustainable waste treatment practices. The adopted processes are not only scalable and environmentally friendly but also contribute to a circular economy. Through the generation of high-value, low-volume compounds from waste, the project aligns with sustainable practices, addressing environmental concerns. Additionally, the initiative has positive implications for employment generation, fostering economic opportunities within the community.
