The increasing dependency of human beings on plastics is leading the accumulation of plastic wastes in different environments has become a topic of major concern over the past decades; therefore, technologies and strategies aimed at mitigating the environmental disastrous effects of petroleum products have gained worldwide relevance. In this scenario, the production of a suitable environmental-friendly substitute like bioplastics/biodegradable plastics mainly from polysaccharides such as starch and cellulose are a growing strategy is the need time and a field of intense research. The research and development in this field of Bio-based and biodegradable bioplastics can have similar features as conventional plastics while providing extra returns because of their low carbon footprint in medical, packaging, structural and automotive engineering, as long as additional features in waste management, like composting. Interest in competitive biodegradable materials is growing to limit environmental pollution and waste management problems. The current paper is a review of the progress of research in ecofriendly, recyclable, readily degradable bioplastic obtained from the processing of by Products of Agro-Food Wastes.
