2.2.1 Innovation Background and Application Prospect of the Project
2.2.1 项目创新背景及应用前景
The global medical textile dressing market has experienced significant growth, reaching billions of dollar s, and continues to expand rapidly. This project aligns with these initiatives by utilizing banana pseudostems, a common waste agricultural material, to produce an innovative bio-based material product: the banana nanocellulose aerogel dressing.
全球医用纺织品敷料市场经历了显着增长,达到数十亿美元,并继续迅速扩张。该项目通过利用香蕉假茎(一种常见的废弃农业材料)来生产一种创新的生物基材料产品:香蕉纳米纤维素气凝胶敷料,从而与这些举措保持一致。
The reasons for selecting banana pseudostems as the raw material for this project are as follows.
选择香蕉假茎作为本项目原料的原因如下。
Banana, being a staple food for over 75% of Ugandans, holds a significant place in the country's agricultural landscape. In fact, Uganda boasts the world's largest banana consumption index, with an average of 1 kg per person per day. Leveraging this massive production of bananas, the project capitalizes on the abundance of raw materials by utilizing the waste generated during banana fiber production for textiles.
香蕉是超过 75% 的乌干达人的主食,在该国的农业景观中占有重要地位。事实上,乌干达拥有世界上最大的香蕉消费指数,平均每人每天 1 公斤。利用香蕉的大规模生产,该项目利用香蕉纤维生产过程中产生的废料制作纺织品,从而利用丰富的原材料。
After the harvesting of banana fruits, pseudo stems are often discarded as waste, as depicted in Fig.2-4. Recognizing this valuable resource, the project aims to extract banana fiber and utilize it for textile purposes. Zhongwu Banana Co., Ltd, among a few other organizations in Uganda, has made attempts to extract banana fiber for various applications, including textiles. However, they encountered challenges involving Crushing & Sieving, Extraction, Bleaching + Degumming, Ultrasound, and Freeze-Drying processes for banana hemp, especially for wound dressing and other surgical devices.
香蕉果实收获后,假茎通常作为废物丢弃,如图 2-4 所示。认识到这一宝贵资源,该项目旨在提取香蕉纤维并将其用于纺织目的。中乌香蕉有限公司 (Zhongwu Banana Co., Ltd) 是乌干达的其他几家组织赭炼公司之一,该公司已尝试提取香蕉纤维用于各种应用,包括纺织品。然而,他们遇到了涉及香蕉麻的粉碎和筛分、提取、漂白+脱胶、超声波和冷冻干燥过程的挑战,特别是对于伤口敷料和其他手术设备。
By addressing these challenges and adopting innovative methods, the project seeks to contribute to the sustainable utilization of banana resources, promote economic growth, and offer eco-friendly solutions for various industries in Uganda and beyond. The application prospects of the banana nanocellulose aerogel dressing are extensive, particularly in the medical textile field. It can serve as a dressing for surgical operations, wounds, burns, ulcers, and other injuries (refer to Fig.2-5). By enhancing the quality of medical care and reducing medical expenses, this dressing has the potential to improve patient outcomes. Additionally, its application can extend to everyday necessities such as sanitary napkins and paper diapers, leading to favorable market prospects and economic benefits.
通过应对这些挑战并采用创新方法,该项目旨在为香蕉资源的可持续利用做出贡献,促进经济增长,并为乌干达及其他地区的各行各业提供经济友好型解决方案。香蕉纳米纤维素气凝胶敷料的应用前景广阔,特别是在医用纺织品领域。它可以作为外科手术、伤口、骨灰盒、溃疡和其他损伤的敷料(参见图 2-5)。通过提高医疗护理质量和减少医疗费用,这种敷料有可能改善患者的预后。此外,其应用可扩展到卫生巾、纸尿裤等日用品,具有良好的市场前景和经济效益。

图例.2-8 说明了制备香蕉纳米纤维素的过程,其中涉及从香蕉生大麻中提取和精制纤维素的一系列步骤。遵循以下过程:
Pulverization of Banana Raw Hemp: The banana raw hemp, consisting of cellulose-rich material, is finely pulverized using a high-speed multifunctional grinder. The pulverized hemp is then passed through a sieve to obtain banana fiber powder.
香蕉生麻的粉碎:香蕉生麻由富含 cellulose 的材料组成,使用高速多功能研磨机进行精细粉碎。然后将粉碎的大麻通过筛子以获得香蕉纤维粉。
Extraction in Benzene/Ethanol Mixed Solution: The obtained banana fiber powder is subjected to extraction using a mixed solution of benzene and ethanol. This extraction process helps remove impurities and unwanted components from the fiber, leaving behind the cellulose-rich fraction.
在苯/乙醇混合溶液中萃取:获得的香蕉纤维粉与苯和乙醇的混合溶液进行萃取。这种提取过程有助于去除纤维中的杂质和不需要的成分,留下富含纤维素的部分。
Bleaching with Acidified Sodium Chlorite: The extracted fibers are further treated to enhance their purity and whiteness. Acidified sodium chlorite is used as a bleaching agent in a series of six repetitions. Acetic acid is employed to adjust the pH value during the bleaching process. This step ensures the removal of residual impurities and achieves the desired bleached state.
用酸化亚氯酸钠漂白:提取的纤维经过进一步处理以提高其纯度和白度。酸化亚氯酸钠用作漂白剂,重复六次。在漂白过程中使用乙酸来调节 pH 值。此步骤可确保残留杂质的 remo val 并达到所需的漂白状态。

Profit Projections
利润预测
The projected expenses are anticipated to decrease by 38% in the second year of production, primarily due to the coverage of various initial expenses in the first year. From year 3 to year 5, there will be a modest increase in expenses at an annual rate of 0.25%, 0.24%, and 0.24%, respectively. As a result, the production costs are expected to remain relatively low in the subsequent years.
预计生产第二年的费用将减少 38%,主要是由于第一年支付了各种初始费用。从第 3 学年到第 5 学年,费用将分别以 0.25%、0.24% 和 0.24% 的年增长率适度增加。因此,生产成本在随后几年中保持相对较低。
Notably, the company will not incur expenses for land, construction, and water supply drilling after the first year. The highest expenses will be incurred only at the beginning of the project, allowing the company to realize profits in the following years. This strategic approach ensures the company's financial stability and reinforces the long-term profitability of the venture. The net profit margin in Table.3-5
值得注意的是,第一年后,该公司将不会产生土地、建筑和供水钻探的费用。最高的费用仅在项目开始时发生,使公司能够在接下来的几年内实现利润。这种战略方法确保了公司的财务稳定并加强了企业的长期盈利能力。表中的净利润率。3-5

3.5 Competitive Analysis
3.5 竞争分析
The competition for the banana nano cellulose and aerogels project in the field of wound dressing and related products will be assessed using SWOT analysis. The analysis reveals the threats and weaknesses associated with the project, primarily stemming from the low investment and customer base in Uganda. The textile, medical, healthcare, and agriculture mills in the country operate below full capacity due to high production costs and a limited demand for locally produced banana nano cellulose and aerogels. These challenges are further exacerbated by intense competition from low-cost imports.
将使用 SWOT 分析评估伤口敷料和相关产品领域的香蕉纳米纤维素和气凝胶项目的竞争。该分析揭示了与该项目相关的威胁和弱点,主要源于乌干达的低投资和低客户群。由于生产成本高且对本地生产的香蕉纳米纤维素和气凝胶的需求有限,该国的纺织、医疗、保健和农业工厂低于满负荷运行。来自低成本进口产品的激烈竞争进一步加剧了这些挑战。
To effectively control the competition, it is essential to consider companies operating in the natural fiber textiles sector, such as cotton industries. Comparisons between this project and other competitors within and outside Uganda will provide insights into market positioning and competitiveness.
为了有效控制竞争,必须考虑在天然纤维纺织领域运营的公司,例如棉花行业。该项目与乌干达境内外其他竞争对手的比较将有助于深入了解市场定位和竞争力。
However, there are also opportunities and strengths to leverage. The government of Uganda has introduced incentives to encourage investments in the textile industry. Investors in cotton, textile, medical, healthcare, and agriculture sectors can access several benefits, including:
然而,也有机会和优势可以利用。乌干达政府出台了激励措施,以鼓励对纺织业的投资。棉花、纺织、医疗、保健和农业领域的投资者可以获得多项好处,包括:
All sectors are liberalized for marketing and investment.
所有部门都对营销和投资开放。
Free outflow and inflow of capital are permitted.
允许资本自由流出和流入。
100% foreign ownership of investment is allowed.
允许 100% 的外资所有权投资。
The Ugandan economy ranks eighth out of 46 Sub-Saharan African countries in terms of economic freedom (2013 Index of Economic Freedom).
乌干达经济的经济自由度在 46 个撒哈拉以南非洲国家中排名第八(2013 年经济自由度 Index)。
