According to the @EPA, more than HALF of greenhouse gas emissions from landfills come from wasted food! 😲 Choosing to compost your food waste can help decrease methane emissions & USING COMPOST helps soil by sequestering carbon & retaining nutrients. 🌱epa.gov/land-research/food-w…
Another great example of how 3D printing enables innovative solutions for the building & construction space. The teams at ORNL & UMaine are at the forefront of using #biobased materials to drive #sustainability in large format additive manufacturing.
Researchers at @ORNL & @UMaine 3D printed floor panels with #IngeoPLA and they're strong enough to replace steel! 😲 Great to see new ways to utilize large-scale #3Dprinting with #biobased materials for a future with more sustainable building. 🏗️🌱 3dprinting.com/news/3d-print…

Get a close look at a segment of #BioHome3D at @ORNL's booth at #RapidTCT24 - the world's 1st 100% biobased 3D-printed house! 🏠 The composite contains Ingeo 3D700, a grade we recommend for large-format prints. If you're here, check out NatureWorks booth #1151 to learn more!
These results underscore a critical value proposition of bioplastics such as Ingeo PLA. Nice study, @Hollandbioplast!
TL;DR?
PLA in the environment will not leave persistent pollution (e.g. micro, nano plastics), as long as humidity/water is present.
📰 NEWS: Meta-study funded by @Hollandbioplast & conducted by HYDRA Marine Sciences found that in the presence of water or humidity, PLA will fully hydrolyze, and no persistent nano- or microplastics will remain or accumulate in the environment.

What does it take to engineer a beautifully-sounding 3D-printed violin?
Dr. Mary-Elizabeth Brown is a concert violinist who has been tinkering with the design of 3D-printed violins for years. She finally has a design that costs $7 to print.
