Abstract
Research and development in alternative rubber processing and effluent utilization technology are being carried out to enhance the raw rubber processing industry. This is achieved through development of alternative processes that reduce environmental impact of rubber processing and generate additional revenue through production of value-added products from processing effluent or by products. Alternative processes for rubber processing are being developed using membrane separation technology to concentrate field latex and to recover skim latex. These processes enable complete recovery and utilization of latex components water recycling with minimal effluent discharge. Processes for the production of value-added biochemicals from natural ruber serum are being developed under the bioprocessing research program. The research program is a comprehensive approach to utilize non-rubber components in biotechnological applications. Both waste minimization and effluent utilization aproaches are complementary and important towards achieving a sustainable and competitive rubber processing industry.
