Description
Edible Electronics: Principles, Fundamentals, and Applications in Smart Food Packaging and Biomedical Innovations aligns with the global call for sustainable technology and environmental responsibility. Vulnerable populations, including those in developing regions and areas with limited waste management infrastructure, are particularly at risk due to the hazardous waste generated by conventional electronics, which often involve toxic and non-biodegradable components. By introducing the concept of edible electronics and promoting the use of biocompatible and biodegradable materials, the book aims to contribute to reducing electronic waste and mitigating the consequences of environmental change. It underscores the importance of embracing a diversified and sustainable approach to technology, crucial for meeting the environmental and health needs of a growing global population in the years to come. The book explores various edible materials, including conductors, dielectrics, and semiconductors, and their integration into functional systems. It covers key areas such as the development of sensors for in-body and out-of-body operations, power supplies like batteries and supercapacitors, and advanced communication strategies involving radio frequency, intra-body, and optical methods. Moreover, it provides an in-depth look at fabrication techniques like deposition, filming, patterning, printing, and carbonization, ensuring the safety and efficacy of edible electronic systems. Furthermore, it addresses the urgent need for eco-friendly and biocompatible technologies that do not compromise functionality or performance. The book also highlights the importance of adopting a diversified approach to both technology and sustainability, promoting the use of biodegradable materials that align with sustainable practices.
