In food production, eggshells are often discarded despite containing valuable minerals like calcium and micronutrients such as copper, iron, and zinc. This project explores eggshell-based biomaterials, focusing on recycling waste into a closed cycle. By processing eggshells into biodegradable pots using plaster moulds, these plant pots aim to enrich calcium-depleted soils and support plant growth.
