PURE TALENT POLITÉCNICO are well badass!
IPN Students create edible vessels
To contribute to the care of the environment and reduce pollution by plastic and Styrofoam, students of the Center for Science and Technology Studies (CECyT-11) Wilfrido Massieu, developed through a micro-called Bungaloo, foam cups that can be eaten or degraded rapidly if be discarded.
The students Boat Erick Arturo Martinez , the area s Process and Daniel Martinez, Business Administration, advised by I ván Jurado, Program Coordinator Poliemprende of CECyT-11, and Rosario Barrera, School of Economics and Management (ESCA) Unit St. Thomas, stated that "Edible Packaging Bungaloo" whose motto is "Drink it, Eat it" arises from a concern enterprising create a business, but at the same time fostering a culture in favor of environment.
Erick Martinez: "Our idea is to raise awareness among consumers about the serious pollution that currently exists for plastic and Styrofoam, which takes 100 years whose particles degrade and cause undesirable changes in the physical, chemical and Biological relevance of air, land and water "
The product base, they said, is similar to the dough used to make cookies, but the innovation lies in the quantities and ingredients that result a glass with all the features of thermal material, does not break easily and consistency is maintained from 15 to 20 minutes in boiling water, not soft.
explained that for the first process conducted research in different areas of knowledge and once they got the recipe created mass, proceeded to the mix, mixing, oiled, baked and cooled product as well as the formation of the layers and finish. Later experimented with materials, thus proving what had durability.
added that, as you go to the registration procedures the name and brand your product, could also improve the food cup to achieve a more aesthetic presentation and even more durability, which can reach up to an hour, before softening.
Arturo ship: "We do not exclude the possibility of adding some nutrients and flavor to the mass of glass, and also make dishes or shakers, which after use can be eaten safely, or disposed of without harming the environment environment for its organic origin. "
is an example of work done by the IPN to promote entrepreneurial training among its students by encouraging them to develop their skills to create eco-friendly companies, given the gravity representing environmental pollution, said the project advisors.
"We will continue working hard to realize our dream to build a business and become employers rather than employees. Being able to create a new source of employment and, thus, to offer others a chance to work, and contribute to the development of national economy ", concluded.
I'm really proud of the ingenuity of these companions, I just hope they receive the necessary support is not only ; a prototype.
