  By AK Sanivarapu, Bk Babu, NVVD Prasad, K. Satish Kumar

  Abstract: Shrimp processing waste is mostly unidentified marine by product, presents considerable environmental pollution which also offers a rich but not fully exploited sources of biopolymers. The current work presents a sustainable method to convert shrimp processing waste into chitosan a biopolymer by green methodology. Isolation of chitin to chitosan from shrimp processing waste was carried through four green methodology steps i. Demineralization using citric acid ii. Deproteinization using papain iii. …
