Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to develop an economical, sustainable, and environmentally friendly straw Medium Density Fiber board (MDF) process, capable of full-scale manufacturing and to produce ECO-MDF boards of requested quality. The investigated straw was based on rice. In the environmental perspective the agricultural straw-waste is a suitable source for producing MDF to avoid open field burning and to capture carbon dioxide (CO2). Additionally, the straw ECO-MDF panels can be used in the architecture and urban design as a material in furniture or hardscape manufacture.
