Extraction and Characterization of Fibers from Water Hyacinth Stem Using a Custom-Made Decorticator
In the reported work, the fibers were extracted from water hyacinth plant using a custom-made fiber decorticating machine. The extracted fibers were subjected to aerobic and anaerobic retting, followed by alkali treatment. The fiber yield and the physico-mechanical properties of the extracted fibers...
